Overview
Dear Students, Parents, and Community Members

Welcome to the OHS Music Technology E-Learning Page. Below you will find a tentative E-Learning schedule for the reminder of the 2010-2020 academic year. (While I hope to be back in the physical OHS Building by the end of the year, it is best to be prepared for any circumstance.) With each date you will find a topic and description. Please note, to protect the intellectual property of the authors of the music curriculum used in this course Student Assignment Sheets are posted on a password protected page. Students, parents, and administrators have access to this password.  In addition, students have access to all curriculum materials via Google Classroom & Google Drive.

For the benefit of follow music education professionals, below are links to the curriculums used in the course. 

​Teaching Music Through Composition by Dr. Barbara Freedman
​Composing Music with Notation by Floyd Richmond, Tom Rudolph, Lee Whitmore, and Stefani Langol

If you have any question, please email my at [email protected].
