In fact, studies indicate that the mere perception of these obstacles may be partly responsible for the gap between these teachers' interest in technology and the lack of technology integration in the classroom. As a result, students potentially miss out on active, hands-on music technology instruction at school. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003cem\u003ePractical Music Education Technology\u003c\/em\u003e, veteran music educators Rick Dammers and Marjorie LoPresti help music teachers introduce technology into the classroom by providing accessible strategies to support and enrich students' musical learning. The authors highlight a plethora of free online tools at teachers' disposal, and provide options that can be flexible for all school environments and types of teachers - from those with large budgets to those operating on a shoestring, from those well-versed in technology to non-experts. Each chapter outlines pedagogically appropriate resources and strategies that facilitate, support, and enhance music learning, performance, and creation. Additionally, model lesson plans featuring classroom-tested uses of technology aim to empower student engagement while also keeping music learning goals at the forefront. All teaching ideas presented can be tailored to individual teachers' needs and preferences, making \u003cem\u003ePractical Music Education Technology\u003c\/em\u003e an\u003cbr\u003eessential guide to music technology for the everyday music teacher.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRichard Dammers, \u003cem\u003eProfessor of Music Education and Dean of the College of Performing Arts, Rowan University\u003c\/em\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRichard Dammers\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of Music Education and Dean of the College of Performing Arts at Rowan University.
