Although there are many adaptations that can be made depending on what type of technology is available to your students, they will at least need to have access to the web using a computer, iPad, or mobile phone. This lesson utilizes both the Chrome Music Lab Oscillator and the Chrome Music Lab Strings experiments to enrich student understanding of sound and pitch. But with technology, this is no longer a barrier! It is easy to demonstrate sound vibrations, sound frequencies, and have students be able to experiment with these ideas on their own too! Take a look at how technology can enhance student learning by utilizing two Chrome Music Lab experiments. With very few instruments outside of my classroom percussion instruments, teaching about sound production was difficult because it is hard to demonstrate and hard for students to apply. One example of this is using technology to further student understanding of sound. Technology can provide an opportunity for students to dig deeper in ways that may not have been possible without it! This is my favorite thing about incorporating technology into my classroom.
