Event Details: If you teach music or computer sciences and would like an option for a musical/STEM activity for your classes, this workshop is for you. We will be using EarSketch (a free web-based app developed by faculty at Georgia Tech) to learn how to code in Python or Javascript while assembling sound loops to create music compositions. This is a fun and easy way to for a novice to learn coding as well as musical form. No experience is necessary to start but there is plenty of room to grow if you are already advanced in one of these areas. So if you are a computer teacher wishing to funkify your "Hour of Code" or a music teacher who would like to teach musical form and structure in an interactive way, this workshop is for you. EarSketch is also wonderful for a music/computer science integrated project. This workshop is best suited for grades 5 and above.
