IPractice
This book provides new practical tools that bridge the gap between familiar, easy-to-use technology and musical practice to enhance musicianship and motivate students. Authors Jennifer Mishra and Barbara Fast provide ideas for use with students of all levels, from beginners to musicians performing advanced repertoire.

Some strategies in this book would not have been possible without advances in technology; others expand tried-and-true practice strategies with the use of technology. Most of the technologies discussed are free ...
The Oxford Handbook of Expertise
The study of expertise weaves its way through various communities of practice, across disciplines, and over millennia. To date, the study of expertise has been primarily concerned with how human beings perform at a superior level in complex environments and sociotechnical systems, and at the highest levels of proficiency. However, more recent research has continued the search for better descriptions, and causal mechanisms that explain the complexities of expertise in context, with a view to translating this understanding into useful predictions and interventions capable of improving the performance of human systems as efficiently as possible. The Oxford Handbook of Expertise provides a compr...
Interactive Visual Ideas for Musical Classroom Activities
The digital interactive projection system is a staple of nearly every music classroom in the United States. By allowing teachers to show students methods and outcomes from a computer, these systems have become a necessity for reaching students who grew up as digital natives. But, as author and distinguished music educator Catherine Dwinal demonstrates, such systems can be much more meaningful pedagogical tools than simple replacements for chalkboards. In this book, she offers practical tips, tricks, resources, and 50 activities ideal to use alongside classroom projection systems. She focuses especially on tips and activities for beginning teachers, giving them the confidence to take a step out of their comfort zone and learn new ways of engaging students with technology. More than this, she provides reference materials that will serve as a trusted reference resource for years to come.

Streets of India
I traveled to India with my husband in 2018 for the first time to explore the people and places of the sub-continent. I focused on street photography throughout the journey, making both posed and candid photos of the people I met. The camera in some cases became the way to open the door and interact on a more personal level with the people. We shared a busy Indian street, but we also could share a moment in time, a smile, and an interaction - even without sharing a word.There is more to India than the Taj Mahal. I found India to be more about the people than the places. This first trip was only our introduction to this vibrant culture. Life is much different here than our western life, sheltered inside buildings of one sort or another. India is a country with a vibrant street life and my goal was to capture the spirit of life on the streets in my photographs.
