music and technology

The fact that I am taking this course along with teachers from all over the Atlanta area on a Macbook computer supplied by my school, as I sit on my couch far from wires and a desk, tells me that so much has already changed since I began teaching 21 years ago. I am curious about how we might use tools to engage today’s digital learner. Whether or not schools and teachers keep up with the web, the students we teach will continue to explore and use the web in ways we cannot even imagine. Writing my own blog is a new skill for me, but I can see how helpful it could be for me to share and learn from colleagues. I am also interested in learning more about team wikis and podcasts as ways to connect students , teachers and parents with what goes on in my classroom.
