BP5_Web 2.0

I am hoping to make the connections to music through sites like Neok12.com they have an enormous library of resources and links that engage learners of all groups. One example is the link below, it is a page of music lesson videos
Music video lesson from Neok12 
Neok12.com has a feature that allows the student and the teacher to create a presentation within the website.  There are images and videos that will give the presenter relevant visual connections as well as contexual validation. Below are some screen shots that offer a visual idea of the materials covered in the Neok12.com Web 2.0 . As a music educator I see many students don't see the connections the arts bring to every discipline. This website is a one stop shop for the cross curricular lessons I hope to promote. Science, History, Music, Language arts all in a interactive setting for students and teachers. Neok12 is ideal for my Action research. Every subject is covered and interactive lessons, games, and videos are available for free. This site has been designed to encourage students to learn and it is a safe environment. Parents can help students at home because they may not understand the materials students are required to learn but they can go to NeoK12.com to brush up on a concept. The parent can also help the student to work at their on pace.
