New Wine in Old Bottles! Practical and Relevant Ways To Implement Educational Technology in the Performance Based Classroom

Clinic Synopsis:

Implementing educational technology in the performance-based classroom (band, orchestra, and choir) can be a challenge. Finding the right balance between TRADITIONAL methods of teaching and the use of TECHNOLOGY is the key. This session will show directors useful, practical, and relevant ways to infuse technology into the overall structure of their ensembles and curriculum. With an emphasis on student engagement and growth, educational technology does have its place within our ensembles.
