SUMMARY:Music Technology in the Classroom with Katie Wardrobe
DESCRIPTION:Katie Wardrobe is recognised internationally as a music technology trainer and consultant with a passion for helping music teachers. She runs workshops\, presentations and online training resources which focus on easy ways to incorporate technology – through a range of creative projects – into what teachers are already doing in their music curriculum. \nIn Christchurch she will run a series of workshops for both primary and secondary teachers. Teachers can attend a single workshop\, a half day or a full day of workshops\, whatever suits the best. \nPurchase your ticket and select your workshops through Eventbrite \nhttps://www.eventbrite.co.nz/e/music-technology-in-the-classroom-with-katie-wardrobe-tickets-26698982375 \nHere’s a summary of the workshops Katie will be presenting: \nWednesday 21 September \n9.00-10.30: Sibelius Basics: Get Started the Right Way \nLearn how to use Sibelius quickly and effectively\, the right way. This course assumes no prior knowledge\, so it’s perfect for new Sibelius users or for those that have some holes in their knowledge\, including teachers who want to brush up their skills (and stay a couple of steps ahead of students!)\, composers and arrangers who want to get started with creating their own digital scores and backing tracks and senior or tertiary level students who need to notate compositions or complete music assignments. You’ll learn how to set up a score\, input notes without using the mouse (using the computer keyboard\, or a MIDI keyboard)\, how to select music quickly\, best ways to copy and paste\, how to enter lyrics and chords\, adding dynamics\, articulations and repeat signs\, score-sharing techniques and lots of other time-saving tips. \n11.00-12.30: Sibelius Speedy Arranging: Scanning MDI files\, Workflow and Other Tips \nThis workshop is all about learning tips and tricks for quickly arranging music with Sibelius by scanning music or opening PDF files\, downloading and tweaking freely available MIDI files and using in-built Sibelius plugins and shortcuts. It’s ideal for music teachers that want to quickly create classroom arrangements for their students\, studio instrumental teachers or ensemble leaders who need to re-arrange\, transpose or simplify scores and parts and for composers. We’ll cover tips for successfully scanning printed music to make an editable score\, how to make use of MIDI files to save you time (and how to clean up the notation once imported!) and we’ll discuss workflow tips. \n1.30-3.00: Digital Portfolios \nDuring this workshop we’ll look at some of the ways music teachers can adopt easy-to-use technology to transform their music classroom. The workshop will cover two main areas: assisting student learning through a flipped classroom model and the creation of student digital portfolios using online music tools. We’ll discuss solutions for a range of school setups: BYOD schools\, schools with mixture of platforms and devices\, and schools just wanting to delve more into digital portfolio options. \n4.00-5.30: Flipping the Music Classroom \nWhat is a flipped classroom\, how does it work and why would I want it? By taking advantage of the shift in learning opportunities made available by technology\, you can harness the “natural” communication methods of students – all while simultaneously catering for different learning styles and paces. Pause\, rewind and fast forward the teacher! We’ll look at examples of real-life flipped music classrooms and teaching studios\, how you can use this model to reinvent the boring stuff and get quickly to the good stuff. And you probably already have almost all the tools you need to do it! \nThursday 22 September \n9.00-10.30: Notation on any device: Write Scores on your iPad\, Chromebook\, Mac or PC Laptop \nAn introduction to Noteflight – the online notation software solution that works on all platforms. During this session\, you’ll learn how you can use Noteflight in the teaching studio and classroom. Discover how quick it is to set up a score\, enter notes\, copy and paste music and transpose. Learn some tips and tricks and explore lesson plans and activities that you can use with your students. \n11.00-12.30: iPad Projects for the Music Classroom Hands On \niPads are a fantastic tool in the music classroom. They are highly portable\, multi-functional and there are a wealth of inexpensive creative apps available. This workshop will show you a range of easy\, adaptable projects for students of all ages. There will be ideas for the one-iPad classroom as well as for 1:1 iPad programs and everything in between. During the day we’ll focus on the learning outcomes that students can achieve with iPads in the music classroom. We’ll start with a series of creative projects using GarageBand including arranging\, composing and storytelling. We’ll then explore sound\, composition and performance with MadPad and finish with an app-smashing program music activity which combines storytelling\, images\, narration\, and mood music. We’ll also look at iPad extras and accessories such as equipment needed to plug in MIDI keyboards\, microphones and guitars and have an open apps question-time. \nCost of workshops: \nSIngle workshop $30 \nHalf day $50 \nFull day $100

SUMMARY:KODÁLY TRAINING - 3 day intensive
DESCRIPTION:An opportunity to immerse yourself in the Kodaly approach to teaching music in the classroom\, while developing your own musicianship skills.\nThe course will be an introduction to all the components of the Australian Kodaly Certificate\, which The Muse plans to offer next year\, in conjunction with Sound Thinking Australia under the leadership of James Cuskelly who is accredited to assess the certificate in Australia. Anyone involved in teaching should aim to attend all sessions\, however it is possible for individuals to attend some components of the course for their own interest without attending the whole course\, for instance\, people interested just in developing their own musicianship or choral conducting skills\, or people just wishing to sing in the choir. \nThe Kodály approach to music education is based on the understanding that access to music making is a basic human right\, that music education should be fun\, inclusive and musical\, and should be taught in a logical\, experiential sequence. This weekend is a chance to learn about this incredibly effective approach to music education\, while picking up lots of fun games\, songs\, dances and activities to share with children\, as well as developing your own musicianship skills. People just wanting to attend for their own interest\, who aren’t working with children are also welcome. \nThe Three Days will cover: \nMusicianship: the study of sight-singing\, score reading\, aural perception\, musical dictation and analysis using the tools of the Kodály approach (tonic sol-fa\, rhythm syllables and Curwen hand signs). \nMethodology: the application of Kodály’s principles to the development of classroom and studio teaching programs that are suitable for Australasian children. It includes the study of: Curriculum development\, Teaching techniques\, Sequencing learning\, Lesson planning and assessment. \nTeaching techniques is the practical application of teaching strategies covered in Methodology. \nCultural materials involves learning\, collecting and analysing the folk music of New Zealand and other nations to determine its suitability for pedagogical processes outlined in methodology and its ability to support a developmental music program. \nChoral and Ensemble Techniques is the study of choral conducting\, rehearsal strategies and voice production. \nCost: Full Fee including lunch on Friday and Saturday is $430.00 ($410.00 for Friends of The Muse and Menza Members)\nFurther concessions available for students\, recent graduates and those on a low income. Also reduced price for part time attendance.

SUMMARY:Playing With Songs
DESCRIPTION:Play-songs and games with music\, movement and play materials provide a wealth of opportunities for singing\, playing\, moving\, creating and learning. Extending these can widen experience in sensory awareness\, language\, listening\, visualisation and communication. The Orff approach to singing\, dancing and playing is multi-sensory\, active and creative\, and includes all players with their individual abilities and is therefore suitable for groups of mixed ability.

SUMMARY:The Art of Musical Play : A Summer Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The Art of Musical Play : A Summer Workshop \nConducted by Julie Wylie and Art Therapist Isobel Mertel \nDate : Wednesday 20th January 2015 \nTime : 11.00am – 4.00pm \nVenue : Okuti Valley Hall\, Little River \nOther Information : Please bring a shared lunch \nCost : $80.00 \nFor Bookings or More Information Please Contact Clare Newton at events@juliewyliemusic.com or 0274626488 \nThis Summer workshop combining Art Therapy and Musical Play for parents\, teachers\, librarians and therapists will demonstrate how participants can develop a nurturing learning environment incorporating art and musical play. Such play supports daily routines and classroom learning in joyful ways that promote children’s pride in achievement. There will be an emphasis on understanding the keys to a child’s learning and how to develop calming\, regulating strategies that provide a nurturing learning environment for young children. \nWhen children learn about the elements of art and music and what\, why and how music and art works in relation to their own bodies\, artistic expression and musical play becomes a vital part of the child’s own form of communication. We develop a sense of self and self-expression through art and musical play. Art and musical play naturally builds healthy brain/body connections.\nPlay gives meaning to everyday tasks and activities. As they explore a range of sensory experiences children learn to think creatively\, to problem solve and to develop a love of learning. All children can develop strengths and talents through artistic musi-\ncal play. A nurturing playful environment is all-important to the development of creativity\, artistic expression\, musicality and\nholistic learning. Artistic musical play can underpin the whole curriculum. \nJulie Wylie \nMus.B (Hons. 1st class)\,B.A. A.T.C.L Dip Tchg. A.I.R.M.T.N.Z. Julie Wylie founded the New Zealand Musical Parenting Association twenty two years ago.
