Virtual Learing Environments
Virtual Learning in this new digital age can offer students so much opportunity to experience different ways of learning and engagement. I believe teachers hardest task is keeping students focused on learning and not being side tracked ! Software like Second Life is very interactive and offers a great sense of exploration ! It's also fun to walk or fly around ! Because of this fact it can become distracting at times ! As wonderful this new technology is giving us a learning tool allowing a broad spectrum of communication, I believe in person teaching is so very important for the development of social skills and group work.

Interactive Whiteboards
How much do Interactive Whiteboards (IWB's) help engage students we teach ???
I think it's a vital skill to be fluent in using IWB's !! They're becoming a new way of engaging students and help implement ICT in the education system !
The Ultimate Digital Music classroom set up
We all wish we had resources like this !!!
What is the ultimate classroom set up ?? I know it begins with what resources are at your fingertips !!
Having good funding, clean classrooms and well maintained equipment is an important step to having the ideal set up in a music classroom !!! As a teacher it's a heavy challenge not only to understand how to use current and new technological tools/devices but also to be one step ahead of the students themselves!
