To enhance the online sessions, students will participate in online curriculua several weeks before and after each performance. Teachers will use this web-based material in their class to teach about contemporary music. There are activities for students of varying musical ability, including those with little or no formal training. After the events, all curricular material and sound files are available on the web site for continued use. The curricular activities are grouped into three areas.
Teachers can modify the activities to suit the needs of their students.
Activities can be done individually or in pairs or larger groups. Many activities involve student journals. These are to be used as reflective tools. All external writing and assignments use material the student decides to use from these journals. Students are encouraged to always look back and see how their work has changed.
