A Technical World
We are surrounded by technology and use it in all walks of life: at work, to shop, to communicate, to create, and to learn and assimilate knowledge.
Why is there such a huge disconnect with technology in both education and music, as if we were boarding a flight?
Why do we continue to teach music as we were taught?

How far back in time could you take your teaching style (minus contemporary compositions) where the
skills would be exactly the same?
2000?
1990?
1980?
1970?
1960?
1950?
There have been few significant changes in the
instruction of choral music for many years.

Engage StudentsMusic educators need to reexamine themselves. Why are we not engaging kids? Why are we not reaching 80 to 90 percent of the student population? Students are listening to more music, creating more music, and playing more music, but we are not involved. It's happening at home, on their home computers. (Carol Broos, Sunset Ridge School, Northfield, IL)

If you are unwilling to broaden the impact of technology in your program...
You can still develop excellent singers and excellent choirs. (Technology
The disconnect between society and the art form will deepen
And you will lose the ability to use technology to go "Beyond the Notes."
![Page 12: NCACDA Beyond the Notes - Technology in Music Education€¦ · · 2012-02-13Engage singers' imaginations Develop artistry Read better ... instruction of choral music for many years](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070610/5af2d6517f8b9ac246912ffb/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
I don't propose that we need to change tradition.
I propose that we need to transform tradition.
"technology integration."
![Page 13: NCACDA Beyond the Notes - Technology in Music Education€¦ · · 2012-02-13Engage singers' imaginations Develop artistry Read better ... instruction of choral music for many years](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070610/5af2d6517f8b9ac246912ffb/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The goal of technology integration is to bring technology into instruction to change, enhance, and improve instruction, not simply to replace the current form of instruction.
![Page 14: NCACDA Beyond the Notes - Technology in Music Education€¦ · · 2012-02-13Engage singers' imaginations Develop artistry Read better ... instruction of choral music for many years](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070610/5af2d6517f8b9ac246912ffb/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Technology Integration
Requires three components
Curriculum/Content/Music/Resources
Pedagogy
Technology
Without all three, technology integration fails.

"With what shall I fetch it?"There are unlimited ways to bring technology into the choral environment.
I will focus on the iPad as a tool, as it is both a popular and flexible device.
Many of these concepts could be used on other technology platforms (transfer the learning).

What is an iPad?Released by Apple in April 2010
Basically a large iPod Touch with more functionality
Post PC Device
Universal appeal, resulting in the fastest tech adoption ever, and changed the computer marketplace forever (killed the netbook)
As of January 2012, over 50 million iPads have been sold
Available in wi-fi and wi-fi/3G versions
Second generation released in 2011
![Page 17: NCACDA Beyond the Notes - Technology in Music Education€¦ · · 2012-02-13Engage singers' imaginations Develop artistry Read better ... instruction of choral music for many years](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070610/5af2d6517f8b9ac246912ffb/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
What can an iPad do?Run any iOS app, many made to take advantage of the large size of the screen; "There's an app for that."
Excels at consuming information and media (e-mail, web, and video)
Is not limited to consumption
Instant-0n
Highly portable
Lays flat on a stand or a piano
Extremely long battery life
Surprisingly rugged
![Page 18: NCACDA Beyond the Notes - Technology in Music Education€¦ · · 2012-02-13Engage singers' imaginations Develop artistry Read better ... instruction of choral music for many years](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070610/5af2d6517f8b9ac246912ffb/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Why is the iPad so popular?The iPad represents a paradigm shift in computing and how we use computers
"This is the first time that non-technical Educators have been out ahead of the technologists." -- Fraser Speirs
50% of the popularity can be attributed to the hardware itself(remember that the Tablet PC has been around since 2002)
50% of the popularity can be attributed to iOS
Intuitive, organic

The Process of Music MakingSight-Reading
In the past, the challenge has been organizational and visual
Handing out/management of sight reading packets or books
Is everyone on task? On the right page? Singing?
Projection--like medieval part books--answers some issues
If projected on a screen, can everyone see?
![Page 25: NCACDA Beyond the Notes - Technology in Music Education€¦ · · 2012-02-13Engage singers' imaginations Develop artistry Read better ... instruction of choral music for many years](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070610/5af2d6517f8b9ac246912ffb/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
The Process of Music MakingSight-Reading
iPads offer a solution
PDF Music Readers: easy management, organized
Teacher can mirror to the screen for clarity
PDF resources, such as Bruce Phelps" Sight Reading Manual (www.phelpsmusiccompany.com)
Assessment of this skill is time consuming and a management issue

Do you practice dictation with your choirs?
Paper, pencils, loss of transition time

Don't Fall for the Trap...The iPad isn't a notebook computer, although it can do many things a notebook computer would do.
Find apps that take advantage of a multi-touch interface. Not all apps are equal in terms of user interface or functionality.
The iPad isn't about taking existing resources and converting them, it is about changing how we use computers. Conversion of resources is only the first step.

Previous to version 2012, SmartMusic had a limited number of vocal resources, although you could make your own rehearsal scores for soloists with Finale
SmartMusic 2012 has a new focus on the assessment of sight-reading
As of December 22, 2011, you can an create your own assessments on the iPad
I am using SmartMusic for solfege assessments, repertoire assessments, and for auditions
Hoping for SmartMusic for the iPad in the future. A teacher version (SmartMusic Inbox) is available now
