Collecting Resources

In this activity, the class basically divided into specialized area groups of education (music, elementary ed, high school English, etc) and collected resources (websites) to utilize in the future. I had never done this before and had only been to a couple sites for music regarding educational tools, games and such.

I enjoyed the activity to see the variety of music sites available for educators, students, performers, and parents. However, the music group had quite a bit of overlapping of websites probably because of our specialized area. One issue I found about completing the resources on the Wiki page was the "steal lock" key because everyone was trying to edit pages at the same time. This proved to be quite problematic. However, introducing the activity, I did think Google Drive was a neat source because it saves your document through your account without having to manually save it.

These sites are very beneficial for music teachers and students. There were resources for six different areas of Educators/Index, Musicology, Music Theory, Music Games, Symphony Orchestra, and WebQuests. My music students could access the Wiki page and click on a link to complete musical activities or research.
