Here are my 5 Friday Finds for Week 1 of #tch432:
Live Twitter Chats - I have been invited to participate in several live chats that look really interesting (#formativechat, #XPLAP, #celebrateED). I have never done this before, so I am excited to share next week what I learned from them. I am looking for ones that are geared specifically for music teachers and would welcome any recommendations.
Quote of the Week - "If we teach today like we taught yesterday, we rob our children of tomorrow." - John Dewey. This is so important for this current moment in academia. Technology has altered the educational landscape so quickly that refusing to change our ways will likely be detrimental to both our students and ourselves.
Article of the Week - "Bringing the 5 Cs into your classroom" (Gregory Firn). Even though this was written in 2018, it is very applicable to today, and even more so post-Covid.
Video of the Week - "The Art of Creativity" TED Talk by Taika Waititi. This video was suggested to me after watching Cristina Riesen's TED Talk, and I was so inspired by it. I have thoroughly enjoyed Mr. Waititi's films he has directed (mainly JoJo Rabbit and Thor: Ragnarok), and I love learning about great artist's creative processes.
