Hello AOSA Members!

Dear friends,

I very much enjoyed being able to share with you all this week at AOSA. I wanted to let you know that I think I've come up with a workaround for the limits of sharing music notes for use in Powerpoint. I am going to try to create some transparent, malleable, cross-platform music notes to share, free of charge. This may take me a few weeks, but I will post the files here, as well as suggestions for making PowerPoint presentations with notation. If you want me to notify you when the files are done, email me and I'll keep you updated.


- Tim

AOSA 2009 - Technology & the Schulwerk

Dear AOSA Members,

Thank you for those of you who will attend or have already attended my sessions this week. I am grateful for the chance to share with such a talented and dedicated group of teachers!

Here is a link to a digital copy of the notes for this session. The nice thing about the digital version is that you SHOULD be able to click all the links to resources. Let me know if it's not working for you.

I would be happy to follow up with any of you concerning technology or other questions. I am also available to do full-day workshops at your local chapters!

Peace & Joy,

Tim
