Students are drawn to mobile technologies such as iPads and
smartphones because of the sheer endless possibilities of the
digital worlds they hold. But how can their potential for
stimulating the imagination be effectively used in the music
classroom to support students' development of musical thinking?
Countering voices that see digital technologies as a threat to
traditional forms of music making and music education, this
collection explores the many ways in which hand-held devices can be
used to promote student learning and provides teachers with
guidance on making them a vital presence in their own classrooms.
Creative Music Making at Your Fingertips features 11 chapters by
music education scholars and practitioners that provide
tried-and-true strategies for using mobile devices in a variety of
contexts, from general music education to ensembles and from K-12
to college classrooms. Drawing on their own experiences with
bringing mobile devices and different music apps into the
classroom, contributors show how these technologies can be turned
into tools for teaching performance, improvisation, and
composition. Their practical advice on how pedagogy and mobile
technologies can be aligned to increase students' creative
engagement with music and help them realize their musical potential
makes this book an invaluable resource for music educators who want
to be at the forefront of pedagogical transformations made possible
by 21st-century technologies.
