*Technology in a Music Classroom
-
Description
After the Spring of 2020, finding ways to utilize and integrate technology into a traditional general Music or performance based classroom became more important than ever before. Using sites such as Google Classroom, Google Apps, Screencastify, Loom, Soundtrap, Musictheory.net, and others became a much more important part of teaching music. This session will go through different ways that music teachers can begin to harness the power of teaching music through online applications.
