Survey Monkey 03/21/2010
 
I used Survey Monkey with my gr 11 class after their workshops.  It worked really well with the Junior students.  I had a few technical difficulties with the Gr11 version.  It is an easy program and a great way to get responses.  it can help you analyse the results even on the basic version.   Helpful for IB students to gather audience opinion.  You can create it to suit your needs.

Audacity 03/21/2010
 
I use audacity with a lot of my classes.  Our school has 1 to 1 mac so I also get them to use Garage band which is inbuilt on their computers.  The students record their pieces and then convert them into mp3 files.  This is easy to do.  I have to give my kids a Lame file to help them do it.  If anyone wants it I can save it on resources. Let me know.

Then they have a mp3 files to practice with; help them learn lines - I also tell them it is a great study tool.  It really helps them focus on movement and not worry about text so much.  They can redo as many times as they like especially when they change ideas.  Good techniques to see how Given circumstances can effect a performance.  Not my idea originally - a great teacher at WAB - Mr Duffield gave me the idea .
