Our school offers its employees many opportunities to take classes on teaching, computer programs, classroom management, etc. One of the classes offered was a program called Audacity. I had never experimented with any kind of audio software on the computer. I love the computer and love new programs. The class taught us about how to use Audacity and the assignment was to come up with a 5 minute taped message or lesson that had to include all the elements we had learned. One of the elements was how to put music into the program. I wrote and read a poem about the school. Then I played and recorded music on the guitar that I could place into the program. I could not have done this without having known how to read guitar tabs. I received an “A” on the project.
