I attended the MMEA (Maryland Music Educator's Association) conference. The first session was a waste of time. I can't even believe they allowed the man to present. The second session was about using "Music of the Sea" from various cultures. The third session was about using hula dancing and ukuleles in the classroom. The last session was about digital portfolios. I found this session to be intriguing in the fact that the presenter keeps accurate records of his students' performance via video portfolios. However he did NOT solve the problem of the huge time factor this takes to off-load and categorize the videos. I'm hopeful there will be some sort of technology soon that will make it easier to do this type of process.
