ever ready

And another thing about the edirol r-09 - it's out and recording before the kids can change their minds. No sooner are they laughing at it thinking it's a brick of a phone than they are creating their own piece of recording history.

Things are hotting up now - we're starting to have people coming to us asking to be recorded as well. They've experienced whole class recording sessions, either in person or by listening to the finished track, and they are thinking about what musical skills they want to share with the world.

I'm setting specific numu homeowrks - creating a profile, choosing a favourite track or leaving a couple of shouts. And you get to tick the ICT box on your lesson plans.

Just discovered your Blog. Am in the throws of setting up a NUMU label for a bunch of European teachers to 'experiment' before they go live with it next year. Most are still at the point of learning how to use simple recording software, but they WILL get there! Keep up the blogging - am really encouraged to know how switched on the kids seem to be.

Hi Jenny, really interested to read your blog, numu seems like a really great resource. i work for the music manifesto campaign and it's something i've been thinking about writing about for our website. might have to talk to you a bit more about that...

Hi Alison and Lyndsey

Good to hear from you. NUMU really is something to be excited about.
You'll find that I'm not a daily blogger as I'm a busy head of music! But I will the blog as up to date as possible.
