Programmatic music may be the primary unit, but the way technology has shaped the composition of programmatic music will be included. In other words, technology is an ongoing theme, a unit within a unit. Correct written and verbal usage of language art will be a consideration in the creation of projects.

Technology is a relevant issue to today s teens.
My own observation is that the students are far more technologically literate than most of their teachers. In short, they ought to participate because they ll find the process enjoyable. With the possible exception of some transfer students, computer experience should present no problem. They will include survey interpretation, Internet library research, PowerPoint projects, electronic collaboration, and a reaction paper or similar element in formal evaluation of content. I would anticipate regular communication in the initial stages of the survey and its compilation.
