I use technology during my Music lessons and with my non-verbal students is a great tool to check comprehension, self study and unit assessment. After we learn and practice sight reading Music Rhythm Notes, and concepts like measure, tempo and dynamics, we use the ipads to practice the notes by labeling the symbols, matching names and images and comparing rhythm patterns when we listen to them. There are different programs and free websites where these students can practice and show me the answers or their final score instead of giving me a verbal response. To increase the level of complexity, I can give them different cards with patterns and they can either practice in the virtual drums or in the real instrument. Final assessment can be done using different online programs or apps like Google Music Lab, Drumbit or incredibox. Using these fun and creative tool the students can compose their own set of rhythms using the concepts we learned during class. |

I agree with you. Smart board activities are great for group centers, help students to visualize better the concepts and interact with others toward the same goal. Students get very engaged and even competitive when they are presented with different challenges or levels of difficulty. |
