Here is my back to school night slideshow with audio. I really hate my voice, I need to start talking clearer and mumble less. This portion of the slide show presentation was easier for me. I am already familiar with music and sound editing programs, I own Pro Tools and Garageband and I have worked with Audacity and many other programs. Most of them are easy to use and as you jump from one program to another, you start to see they they operate very similar.
After seeing the presentation about power point presentations and how they can be more harmful than helpful, I realized that there are a lot of pitfalls that I may have fell in had I not seen it. Still, my presentation still needs a lot of work. I think I'll do much better when planning out my next presentation. Or if I were to plan a whole lesson using it. I really like the video where the science teacher was able to relay the information through a presentation over the internet and save class time for the hands on part. That really got me thinking about the applications for music class. It would be great if I could find a way for them to practice music together with these programs.

Glad the resources I provided you were helpful. Audacity and Garageband are much more powerful than what I have shared with you. They are more complicated but I love using them. I suggest you continue.
ReplyDeleteMichael, I also have a lot of experience with ProTools and GarageBand. I tried Audacity for this assignment and found it very simple to use. As a music teacher you might end up teaching students basic home recording on these programs. Many successful musicians nowadays are starting this way!
ReplyDeleteMichael, can you imagine actually speaking in front of a class room? I too worry about mumbling. With this presentation you had opportunity to erase presentation and start a new one. I know I will hate the the first time speaking in front of students, what about you?
ReplyDeleteIt is important to have clarity and confidence in your words. Being prepared is the first part of the battle, the second part of the battle is hands on. It's getting up in front of peers or students and being able to present information in a comfortable and confident manner.
