K12Online Web Conference 2009

Theresa White — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 01:37:10 +0000

I have been chosen to be a part of the Public Relations team for the 2009 K12 Online Conference “Bridging the Divide” and could not be more thrilled! This is just a “Save the Date” if you will, but mark your calendars for the weeks of December 7 and December 14. These will be the [...]

Supporter Fun Stuff!

Theresa White — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 01:51:57 +0000

I have now upgraded my third blog to “Supporter” status on Edublogs.com and am very excited about the possibilities. The main thing I have been waiting for the ability to do is domain mapping and I’m working on it! I’m pretty “tech-savvy” I think, but this domain name stuff is a little over my head. [...]

NPM 2009

Theresa White — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 12:00:59 +0000

I will be attending the National Association of Pastoral Musicians (NPM) conference at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont (Chicago) IL next week and cannot wait. I really enjoy this conference because it gives me so much insight into my “other” profession as a liturgical church musician as well as the motivation to [...]

Technology in the Music Education Classroom – Resource

Theresa White — Thu, 25 Jun 2009 12:00:40 +0000

In one of my previous posts I spoke about the ridiculous amount of podcasts I have been downloading lately. One of them is a group of podcasts from presentations that Amy M. Burns has done at different MENC/TI:ME conventions. In the presentation she gave on technology in the elementary classroom she introduced her book and [...]

Camp PBWorks

Theresa White — Wed, 24 Jun 2009 01:30:50 +0000

So, like all educators (or at least most that I know) I have decided to take the summer for Professional Development. I have enrolled myself in a few webinars and such, but the one I am most excited about is the PBWorks Summer Camp. The “Camp” consists of 5 weeks of webinars which take place on [...]

Podcasts for Music Education

Theresa White — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 02:58:52 +0000

I have become a podcast junkie as of late, getting my hands on anything I possibly can relating to either technology in music education, administration (principalship) or leadership. While conversing on Twitter the other day, 7th_tone thanked me for retweeting a music education tweet by Dr. Frankel from the MENC 2009 Convention podcasting the Opening [...]

Preparing my classroom for maternity leave

Theresa White — Fri, 01 May 2009 03:14:49 +0000

As I was working on clearing out the unread articles on my Google Reader, I ran across Amy Burns’ article on Maternity Leave: What the music teacher should know… This caught my attention because I will also soon be on maternity leave. This is my second so I am a little more prepared for it [...]

Music for kids AND adults!

Theresa White — Thu, 15 Jan 2009 15:30:05 +0000

While catching up on my Google Reader, I ran across and article in Rachel Rambach’s “Listen and Learn” regarding great music written for children which is enjoyed by adults. This is incredibly important if you aren’t going to go crazy in your job or at home. My 10-month-old daughter really enjoys when Disney’s Imagination Movers [...]

7 Things Meme

Theresa White — Tue, 13 Jan 2009 17:49:09 +0000

I’ve been tagged for the 7 things meme and I’m a little at a loss for what to say! I think I’m an open book for the most part, but I suppose my online readers may not know much about me, so here goes nothing! 1. I am deathly afraid of open water (and I live [...]
