Session Notes
Do you like music? Your students probably love music, and enjoy experimenting with the elements of melody, harmony and rhythm. This session will introduce the attendee with the many Web 2.0 sites that exist to allow for creativity and exploration by your students. Below are a collection of Web 2.0 sites that allow for a wide variety of creativity and exploration. Whether to create a rhythm, write a song, of just create music of a more abstract nature, you will discover Web 2.0 tools that will inspire your students as they discover the wonder and delight of the music world. This session will be held in the music tech lab in the Seigfried Weis music building. Come and have some fun!!

If you like Guitar Hero, you have to try SYNTHESIA. (Like Piano-Hero, if there were such a thing) Download it before you come to the session at http://www.synthesiagame.com/getTheGame.aspx

We will be making extensive use of my Middle School Music Wikipage. It can be found at: http://shafermusic.wikispaces.com
