CNN TECH ARTICLE

How can we introduce music creation into our classrooms?

  1. I watched the videos and listened to the songs that people created and they were awesome.
    Can we order some I-phones just for that purpose and use it as a tool for differentitation just like we use podcasts?

  2. Alana - At the workshop I recently attended they were talking about the newest - I-pod Nano has multiple uses - it now is a video camera and a audio recorder as well as playing music! I'll read the article! I clicked on the CNN Tech article and it did not lead me to it. I'll google for it. Also I was talking to some of the tenth graders today and I mentioned KIDROCK a program that brings guitar playing into the classroom. I would like to look into that for Media Music. As long as a teacher can attend a 2 day workshop (coming soon to New York) they supply guitars to the school for free!!.

  3. Looked at the video. Looks great! Maybe some I-phones and some I-nanos to record the action!
