BP2_2009101_Google Reader

I have chosen the following 5 RSS feeds:

  • Apple Learning Interchange-iLife in the Classroom (http://edcommunity.apple.com/ali/search.php?output=RSS&order=recent)
I think we can all agree that Apple creates great products, both for personal and school-related use. I am very interested in staying up to date with how I can effectively use iLife software with and for my students.

  • MENC-The National Association for Music Education (http://www.menc.org/news.rss)
My activity with MENC has varied over the course of my teaching career, but I feel that it is a valuable organization and I want to stay current with what they are doing. Subscribing to this feed seems much more realistic than actually reading those stacks of magazines that I have and that, no matter how interesting they are, I never seem to actually get around to.

  • MusTech.Net: Music Education, Music Technology, & Education! (http://mustech.net/feed)
Well, this one seems perfect for me! Using technology in music education. That's what I started this program to do. So I'm thrilled that there is a feed devoted to it.

I've used SmartMusic a little bit in my classroom, and one of my goals is to incorporate it more frequently this year. I think this blog will give me some great tips and ideas.

This seems like a great resource that I can tie into my curriculum with information on composers and music history.
