WELSTech

From the CLS eNews 012116 - Chris Treder, WELS teacher at Apostles Lutheran School in San Jose, Calif., has a collection of music he wrote for use in classroom music curriculum and with junior choirs. He is offering his music via the Alive in Christ Music website and you can download the music for free. There is both instrumental and choral sheet music, and a service for Ascension available along with other helpful resources.

Interested to know how well reviewed this is by other WELS people.........anyone read this system and recommend it?

I have enjoyed this guy's blog for a few years. I got the Kindle version for on sale for $5.99 after the new year but haven't read it yet. The book is based on a productivity series he wrote last year that was very good. I'm looking forward to getting to it.

Free e-book. "Social media is no longer a new buzzword, an emerging trend, or some passing fad. It has taken a premier role in how we live and interact with each other. Social media has gone through its growing pains and is now a vital part of business marketing for companies large and small. "In this book, we'll cover how social media can help you build your brand, connect with new and existing customers, and improve your customer service before, during, and after customer transactions. Included are some of the most up-to-date tips on getting the most from your social networks. Social media is no longer a trend, it's an important part of your business."

This little 3 minute video is a great way to introduce Copyright and Creative Commons to middle/upper graders. Simple enough to get started with how these two, CR and CC, work together for good.

From Tom Rosenow - Useful for creating a script, etc. for narration. Might be good for shooting a flipped classroom video as well.
