Audio Technology for Music Educators: A Practical Manual for Implementation

The realm of education is steadily changing from the influence of ideas, theories, research, and technology. Revisiting theory
and practices and reinvigorating them with the knowledge gained in research and the advances in technology continue to improve the
opportunities of the students. With increasing expectations for teachers to incorporate and understand audio technology and its use in the
classroom, educators must familiarize themselves and feel comfortable in using digital audio, recording and audio production techniques.
Digital audio technology is now used ubiquitously for the delivery and distribution of musical compositions. As educators, the
understanding of digital audio technology is paramount. This technology can be deployed to enhance both the opportunities and
instructional resources available to students as well as an observational tool for teachers. The impetus for this dissertation was to
create a comprehensive instructional design for both pre-service and in-service music educators as well as for applied instructors. The
method of this instructional design utilizes experiential learning to introduce the theoretical ideas of digital audio theory and
techniques. Through this project based, results-driven instruction, the understanding of core concepts is bundled into practical
instructions that are of immediate use to an instructor's classroom and students. / A Dissertation submitted to the College of Music in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the
