New Tools in New Ways

Congratulations to one of our favorite iTech Fellows, Kim Davenport, who was recently awarded the CMS Instructional Technology Initiative Award by the prestigious College Music Society

CMS is a consortium of college, conservatory, university, and independent musicians and scholars of music. This annual award is given in recognition of exceptional contributions in  the effective use of technology to improve college music instruction. 

Kim’s work will be recognized at the Society’s National Conference and presented in a Showcase event there.

Take a look at Kim's rich story-telling of how she teaches her "TARTS 2220: Exploring Classical Music in Our Community" to engage students and help them fearlessly learn more about music. It helped us better understand why students love her online course.

Kim's story of TARTS220 is told via use of the open, free web tool ReadFold. Check that out too as a way to easily engage students in telling their own stories with rich media links and resources.

Gorgeous. Inspiring. And fun!
