Proposal summary

Purpose & objective

My hope is to allow attendees to break free of presentation tools that are all a text box and a picture. Music is such a human need. By picking their own song, students will rewrite the lyrics to match the curriculum standard/outcomes. Almost any presentation tool can be used. A simple screencasting tool such as Flipgrid is the recording studio.

Outline

Opening
Examples
Explicit Learning
The steps will be given on how to achieve a parody song by the end of this session.
Creation Time
There will be templates for those that need a boost. Otherwise, attendees will create on their own.
Showcase
We will share our creations by either a gallery walk or screen sharing if allowed.

Supporting research

Studies have shown that music produces several positive effects on a human's body and brain. Music activates both the left and right brain at the same time, and the activation of both hemispheres can maximize learning and improve memory.
