Technology in the Music Classrom Computer Creativity by Karen Stafford Music isn't only keeping a beat, teaching kids to sing, and letting them play recorder.
Music is creativity.
And, what a super tool computer technology is. The Doodle Pad is a click and drag device where students click on note heads for whole note through eighth note, then drag them over to the staff where they want them. I have students who get a kick out of making patterns out of the note heads, then playing them back to see what they sound like. There's also a JukeBox with pre-recorded tunes that the students can alter. Warn them, though, about saving the file to a different name.
