Our classroom does not have a projector or screen of any type, only a white board and a very small TV that's hard to see. My students need to view music, group music reading exercises, presentations, and other educational media (performance recordings, etc) as an entire class. I have a large classroom with many windows (it's very bright and traditional projectors are hard to see). There's only so much our tiny little TV, whiteboard, and traditional methods (flashcards, etc) can accomplish, especially with 47 students in one class at a time! Having a large 55" smart TV in class will help us to display these educational things for the entire class to be able to see and be engaged in the learning process. The technology will help improve efficiency when changing between exercises and activities. Most administrators agree it has become important to incorporate as technology in the classroom and music is no exception. Please help us achieve our goal!
