1 Middle School Music Appreciation: Engaging Students in Learning Presented By: Laura Snow Stanley County School District TIE 2009

2 WHY? I don’t have a ‘regular’ classroom in which to teach this course, the computer lab was open…so why not? Felt many of the students are/were not being exposed to opportunities to learn the skills that will help them to succeed in work and life in the 21 st century.

3 21 st Century Skill Applications Partnership for 21 st Century Skills: Framework for 21 st Century Learning http://www.21stcenturyskills.org/index.php?Itemid=120&i d=254&option=com_content&task=view http://www.21stcenturyskills.org/index.php?Itemid=120&i d=254&option=com_content&task=view Core Subjects: Art and History Creativity and Innovation: Think creatively and Work Creatively with Others Critical Thinking and Problem Solving: Make Judgments and Decisions; Solve Problems

4 Information Literacy: Access information efficiently and effectively; Use and Manage Information Media Literacy: Analyze Media ICT Literacy: Apply Technology Effectively Life and Career Skills: Flexibility and Adaptability; Initiative and Self-Direction; Social and Cross-Cultural Skills; Productivity and Accountability; Leadership and Responsibility

9 Students learn to be more responsible for their own learning

10 Thanks! I hope the information that was presented today gives your some ideas in your efforts to help your own students move along in the 21 st century! Comments/Questions: Laura.Snow@k12.sd.us Laura.Snow@k12.sd.us
