January 2005 Shearspire, Inc., recently completed the Music Educators and Music Technology (MEMT) study using a survey and interviews to help us understand how music teachers are using technology throughout the United States. The results have been illuminating. The Goals and Methods Our main objectives for the MEMT study were to determine what types of hardware and software are used to teach music, the level of integration with curriculum, how music teachers go about obtaining the resources they need, and the obstacles teachers encounter.

The Participants The survey participants consisted of mostly K-12 music teachers and a smaller number of college professors. Software Usage Of all categories of software, notation software was by far the most popular. Approximately 50% of the participants use mid-range sequencing software. About 20% of the participants use software to help their students practice. Dr. RIME Online : September 2009 : Engaging Music and Media: Technol.

The role of music education is always in flux. There is another dimension to this discussion – now more relevant than ever – that I’ll frame interrogatively. The present paper builds on my previous research on lifelong learning, diverse learner populations and community music, by considering music learning of all sorts in light of Jacques Ellul’s statement that “[Technology] is, of necessity, … our universal language” (The technological society, 1954, p. 132). technology: the infinite development of the opposable thumb in the human head.– Arrigo Lora-Totino, Pertinent Points.
