In this course, students will explore teaching music through the use of digital tools. A project-based curriculum will be used to investigate developing musicianship, critical listening skills, and critical evaluation of music in a digital classroom environment for elementary, middle, and high school students. Additional topics will include digital immigrants/digital natives in the music classroom; ISTE standards; rudimentary language of music technology; hardware (music keyboards; selection, use); types of music software; web 2.0 tools; and development of a music technology lab. Course requirements include individual and group projects, weekly reflections on participation in the work of the course, and development of a final digital music product. Technology skills will evolve; focus on music first.
