Giving students the ability to create musical compositions and then listen to their own creations sounds like a great way to help students develop an interest in music. I do not see it as limited to use in music class but utilized in other classes for many other activities, not just technological in nature. I think it may just be one of those tools that finds its own place because it is fun!Alice Hartelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17250865601911913255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6477419146365781430.post-10938321222646138412010-02-14T14:15:08.066-08:002010-02-14T14:15:08.066-08:00Noteflight seems like a great program for music te...Noteflight seems like a great program for music teachers to use with their students. The fact that it allows students to create, view, print and listen to music is awesome. I really like the fact that the students can also share their work with others too. The fact that this program also provides an interactive way to learn to read music as well as to play it makes me think it would be valuable to use on SMART Boards. I think students will be more motivated to participate in music class with Noteflight. I am wondering if it is a new program because I am surprised more people are not talking about it. I am so impressed I forwarded the link to the music teacher at my school!Sharing with Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16759723881574919919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6477419146365781430.post-52886879466489957122010-02-12T19:32:53.930-08:002010-02-12T19:32:53.930-08:00Can't wait to pass this info along to the Gene...Can't wait to pass this info along to the General Music teacher at my school. Having taught the class myself I know how challenging it can be to motive the GM students. I am also familiar with the debate over whether or not composition should be done electronically. Seriously....time for the nay say-ers to join the 21st Century. Look at how much music is generated/performed synthetically. So how could one possible argue that it should not be created that way. Actually, apps like this are great because students can hear their work right away and make adjustments as needed. Or....enjoy the immediate gratification of hearing their own composition almost instantaneously. <br />I think you can register you students as users under your account. They actually sign into your account (how much does that cost?) and then enter a user name or password that you issue indicating they have permission to access. Even if you just use the app yourself to demo key elements of composition I think it would be a valuable tool.callmelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11398927077211950916noreply@blogger.com
