Music & The Lost Learner

Today's tools make it easy to make music with kids. By painting their dark colors with sound, kids can express their frustrations and work through them. They can find symphonies within themselves they never knew we're there. Join me for an excursion into some possibilities in connecting with learners through music.

Sitting in a desk having teaching done to you for eight hours a day can cause some learners to lose their passion for school permanently. Let's explore the idea of making learning meaningful and irresistible using a bit of drama and today's amazing technologies.

Creativity Is Essential

Creativity is all but extinguished in some schools and classrooms. Nobody meant for it to happen but with our focus almost exclusively fixed on test scores we find ourselves waging all out war on anything seen as non-essential. In these days of invention and the need for creative problem solving it turns out we in education may have taken the low ground in a time of a coming flood. Join me for a discussion about the need for creativity and some ideas about bringing it into daily learning.
