Proposal summary

Purpose & objective

Participants will learn about a collaborative learning model between Soundtrap and the School of Education at the University of Wisconsin Platteville. Pre-Service teachers will explain how they developed a practice of professional development, designed authentic learning opportunities, worked through the process with actual students and published projects for the world. Pre-Service teachers learned Soundtrap and took their inspiration to very rural school districts to work on authentic projects with children with the final products being publish! The end demand of the project was to learn how to amplify student voice to add joy to the world. Soundtrap just happen to be the perfect vehicle! If possible, K-12 students will be joining us to explain the collaboration from their perspective!

Additionally, conference participants will receive a timeline and workflow, as well as tips and tricks to work through potential challenges. All participants will leave with access to a collection of successful samples and lesson plan ideas to replicate. This presentation will surely inspire both Pre-Service and current teachers!
