Greetings and salutations! I'm Breanna and I'm a 2nd year grad student at VanderCook College of Music in Chicago. I just completed my 4th year teaching 3rd, 4th and 5th grade general music and choir at Liberty School in Orland Park, IL. This year, however, I also took on the 6th-8th grade choir at Jerling Junior High next door.
This blog has been established in order to share my thoughts on technology and things that I'm learning in my Instructional Design class. I'm looking forward to learning some ways that I can easily and effectively incorporate technology into my general music classes in ways that will be meaningful to my students. I have to say that so far, two days into the class, my expectations of what this class will be like have completely changed. I was expecting to learn about different software programs that are available that my district could possibly purchase for students to use. I think there will be a little of that, but it will far and away be based on things the kids can do online. I'm excited about what I will learn, because I think the nature of it will allow me to use it right away, without having to convince my district to spend money. So, here's to the prospect of learning new things!

If I heard right on introduction day, you and I are the only two instructional design class members who teach elementary generaly music. We'll have to make sure we share ideas as we get them! I look forward to getting to know you better this summer. :)
