Music Tech Teacher, General Information About Our Music Tech Program - 0 views

      This is an inspiring story not of just technology integration but in getting students engaged in actvities that can last a lifetime.
  • Computers and KeyboardsWe have all 8 computer and keyboard stations connected together through MIDI interface cables. As of August, 2007 we connected all keyboards to the computers using USB cables, a much more economical way to make the connections. The keyboards are used to enter notes onto the screen in Sibelius when creating compositions. Students also enter notes into the computer in note reading drills in Music Ace and Alfred's Theory Games, along with some use in the Groovy music series by Sibelius. We also use Alfred Midi files on the computer as an accompaniment with the students as they practice on their keyboards. All computers have splitter cables to split the sound between the keyboard, speakers and headphones. This helps me to have the students practice on their own or practice with the entire class. We do not have funding available for a group education controller, but hope to be able to purchase one in the future. The computers are either Windows 98 PC's or Windows XP PC's that I repaired on my own from obsolete computers no longer being used at our school. We have limited Internet access in our room. I post our websites on each stand-alone computer so students may work on the quizzes and other lessons if time is available during class.

    learn more about music/technology integration.She gives specific examples of her journey using technology in teaching music. She has electronic keyboards usb cabled to computers. This facilitates composition and playing of music. She uses Sibelius as the notewriting program. She uses Music Ace, Music Time Plus, and Microsoft music. There is a table of materials, costs, and funding. There is also a chart on home versus school technology use.The site is experience and personal opinion based. The results are positive for her school as the students taking the keyboarding class has skyrocketed which could be used as a source for inspiration in other classrooms.

  • Sequencing with a SmartBoard- In this lesson, students will be assembled into groups of three or four. Students will be responsible for reading a selected picture book, identifying six main ideas from the text, and mixing the main events into an unorganized list. Student groups will then record their unorganized lists into the SMARTBoard notebook software. Once all groups have entered their list, student groups will receive a different group’s book and their created list. Students will organize the new list of main events, and using the Smart Ideas Software or concept mapping software, create a concept map of the assigned story and events.
  • SmartBoard Lessons Podcast Collection -The purpose of this site is to accompany a free podcast that focuses on using SMART Boards in the classroom.

    Amphitheater Public Schools maintains this page as a resource for teachers who need a centralized place to come for learning the basics and techniques of using a Smartboard. It lists several sites that have pre-made compatible lessons in many subjects that can be addressed by students on the Whiteboard. There is a link to a Podcast collection which contains lessons, Smartboard Podcasts, and comments. It follows good educational pedogogy and utilizes lessons that stretch the imagination and gets students to think by acting and reacting with the Smartboard.
