ACTEM Keynote
8:11
ACTEM Keynote with Marco Antonio Torres...up shortly...
8:12
Topic: Teachers Just Don't Teach It, They Inspire With It
8:17
Marco's background is engineer...passion for Math, but there is a difference between using math and teaching Math
8:19
To help education...we must stay in the question...we tend to rush the solution before we even begin to understand the question
8:22
Marco is demonstrating Garageband...and tying it to teaching Math....there is a "sound" to Math
8:24
The most emotional of all languages is music, the least emotional is Math, but somehow there is a special relationship between the two...
8:29
Music is one of the only ways to read while you are simultaneously see x and y plot... - x = timing, y=pitch...we can use this to teach as well...
8:30
good composition in music, make sure notes are complementary, same as in photography and storytelling
8:32
Different perceptions about music...instrumentation vs making music...
8:35
using Garageband to visualize 1/2, 1/4, full notes, easier for kids to see
8:37
no need to be able to read/write traditional music sheets to create music...most famous score in film history has two notes
8:39
Amazing how you can tell a story with just two keys...sounds tell a story
8:44
kids can use Garageband to create music to tell stories...Marco is demoing in many ways...narrative...this is an amazing way to encourage creativity....and it's all about the Math...
8:47
Kids had an assignment, take 30 secs from Obama's inaugural speech, then create music essay for it to tell story
8:50
What does an educated kid mean?
8:51
We have a hard time agreeing on what it means? Diffrerent ideas - teaching vs learning...sometimes schooling gets in the way of learning
8:53
I don't have 50 students...in this classroom there are 51 learners...change the perspective...keeps it sane
8:58
Marco is showing a "Vision of Students Today"
9:01
Something to think about - stay in the question - don't rush!
9:02
"In times of change learners inherit the earth; while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists" Eric Hoffer, Philosopher
