Long ago, they realized that these two discipline are intertwined with each other. Many musicians and music educators are equally talented in music and computers. Perhaps these two subjects share the same area of the brain . . . When educators opt to incorporate technology into the curriculum, an entire world opens up for students and teachers alike. Teachers become facilitators, guiding students through the discovery process.
Creativity abounds in such an environment.
Using computers teaches the problem solving skills necessary to function in society today. Students do not need to be proficient on an instrument to create music. Everyone can experience the joy of making music, with the aid of technology. So, when you look a little closer at the premise of music and technology, you realize that they are not so far apart. Incorporating technology into the existing music curriculum is relatively painless, and offers the potential to take your students on a musical journey that was not possible just 10 years ago.
