Welcome to the MusicEdTech Wiki!

Coming to you from...

This is a wiki site that we will use as a home base for our coursework this weekend. It will incorporate several examples of the technology we will learn to use and integrate into our teaching in a meaningful way.

Best wishes to you this summer, and beyond, of course! I'm looking forward to working with all of you!

Somes things to have done by now...

• Get signed up and configured and such with a news reader for RSS feeds. iGoogle is easy to use and you all have a Google account for your blogs already. MyYahoo or My AOL would make sense if you already use them for your personal email address. More ideas are in the 'Blogging Tools' link in the Sidebar over on the right.

• Subscribe to the feed for this wiki. The chicklet is way down at the bottom in the right hand corner.
• Using Technorati or the Blogsearch from Google, search for and subscribe to at least two music education blogs that seem interesting to you. Subscribe to at least two educational technology blogs that look interesting to you. They don't necessarily need to be music education technology.
• Sign up with Feedburner to get a feed set up for your "professional" blog. This isn't really difficult, but admittedly can be a bit confusing the first time you do it. Download the instructions in Word or PDF.
• Start building your "student use" blogs.
• Learn how to add third-party content to your blog.
• Talk about wiki's!
• Eat doughnuts and bagels!
