On Friday, February 8, I presented a conference session entitled Garage Band in the Classroom. This session was to show teachers how they can integrate music creation and composition across different curriculum areas. I truly love this stuff but it is difficult to really get deep in 45 short minutes. I may propose a 3-hour workshop next year in a lab setting so that teachers can immediately create some cross-curricular projects that they can bring back to their classrooms.
This is the first time I've recorded one of my sessions. Sometimes it's painful to listen. I'm going to go through and count how many times I said "umm...". This will definitely be a good learning experience!
I have included within this post the uStream recording of the session (sorry, but it's audio only...not sure why the video flaked out). I've also embedded the presentation slides.
Additionally, Helen (@techchick94 on Twitter) from TechChickTips.net Live Blogged the session. Thanks Helen!

Hi John,
My name is Christopher Lawton. I am a reporter for the Wall Street Journal and based in San Francisco. Sorry to post this directly on your blog, but I couldn't find an email address for you. I am researching a possible story about digital citizenship and I wanted to connect with you briefly about it, but I was hoping we could connect in private as opposed to through the blog. If you get this and wouldn't mind, please email me at christopher.lawton@wsj.com. If you'd like, you could also call me in the office at 415.765.8200. Thanks. Hope to hear from you.
Best,
Christopher Lawton

Hi John. I am a graduate student at the University of Iowa and I’m doing a research project on garageband being an effective tool for the classroom use. I was hoping to ask you a few questions about how you have seen it used. If you have a few minutes and don't mind answering a couple questions, please e-mail me at katherine-merulla@uiowa.edu Thanks for your time.
