Music Technology in Education

Did you know that SoundTree has been running some very popular online courses that are completely free? That’s right. Every week, SoundTree offers at least two courses online on a wide variety of topics - everything from podcasting to ProTools, wikis to the basics of digital audio. Tonight I will be teaching a course on Podcasting with GarageBand to nearly 20 music teachers from all over the United States. All you need is an internet connection and a phone to join. Calls are toll-free and we use the WebEx Meeting Center to share PowerPoint presentations, documents, applications and even our desktops to help music teachers learn how to use technology to improve instruction. There is also a special website set up where instructors post their materials as well as links to recordings of previous webinars. To learn more and to sign up today, visit: www.soundtree.com/web-training.

There are quite a few courses being planned for early 2010 - let us know what you’d like us to offer and we’ll see what we can do! Hope to see you online!
