Peter Webster
This course will be held in Library room PC/Mac Lab.
This is a course intended for masters students in Music Education. This course will explore the new developments in music technology while reviewing current software packages appropriate for school and personal use. Class members will write simple compositions, print music notation, work with digital audio, and learn about useful non-music programs. The accent will be on creative thinking in music and using technology as an aid to teaching. This course is required of all students enrolled in the four-summer master's degree program in music education. Note: this summer's course will be a combination of in-lab and distance learning. Portions of the work will be accomplished independently and with online resources and students will not meet as a class. Each week the course will meet at least once as a class but some weeks will be heavily weighted toward distance learning. All students are strongly urged to have their own personal computers with video camera capabilities for distance work.
