 * BLiME DAY 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 **

During our first day of Blended Learning in Music Education we'll present some concepts, tools and examples.

There will be a number of free web apps we'll be using during this course. **You'll need to sign up for any of these tools for which you don't already have an account. CLICK HERE for the list of web tools for which you need registrations*** (be sure to remember all your user names and passwords!!!). //*// //NOTE: There may be other general ed and music web apps for which you decide to use for something specific related to this course.//

Each day throughout the course we'll engage in using some of the great "content creation tools" (mostly web-based) that might be employed when using a blended learning approach for a music course or unit. Your instructor will guide you through these mini projects/activities. Your grade for each is participation (did you accomplish the task or not).
 * TRIAL PROJECTS with Blended Learning Content Creation Tools **

Each day of the course we'll use the **Discussion thread feature of this wiki (see below)** to spark a conversation about some aspect of blended learning.
 * DISCUSSION QUESTIONS **

For today, I've started two threads on questions that focus on your readiness to implement a blended learning course (or component) in your program. **RESPOND briefly but thoughtfully to each question.** If you are a pre-service teacher, respond theoretically using a course (or component) you believe would be useful. In-service teachers may want to refer to a course that doesn't exist yet (but that they are designing) as well.
