@KiaraJadeH @ConorHartigan2 It would be interesting to see what side the book does end up taking, if any.

@ToddLloyd19 This is an interesting point. It is also a picture of a white man which may further confirm the stereotype and bias

In the textbook, My Perspectives, there is evidence of invisibility because the majority of authors that are chosen and pictures included are white, with only one exception which is highlighted as an exception. @raymond19780325 #educ300

@CramptonHalle This is also something that can have such an impact on someone's mental health and must be taken seriously.

@ToddLloyd19 This made me reconsider the ramifications of not having healthcare and how even the most necessary medical services can destroy a family's financial stabilities.

@RentzKendra I knew education prices had risen, but that chart blew my mind. I can't imagine paying my way through school with a part-time job.

[Emily Werner @EmilyAnn301]

@CramptonHalle @LocalSmartsEdu That story really struck me. I can't imagine being in that situation, because as we saw with the ordeal of taking a baby to a check-up, it would take so much time and effort to go to even one appointment, and orthodontists take more than one.

This graph shows how since the 1980s, the gap in wealth gain has widened between the 90th percentile and everyone else even as the country has become more wealthy. #leininterruptpoverty #EDUC300

@GrantSerrels This is really interesting. Do you know if it sounds like a wind chime or how the instrument works? It's neat that it is its own thing and not obviously adapted from another instrument.

[Emily Werner @EmilyAnn301]

@daltoneppardmus This is really neat and such an important step towards inclusion. I liked the pianist's comment about how this technology doesn't allow for excuses against incorporating musicians with visual impairments into orchestras.

This is a piece of adaptive music technology to help the visually impaired. It can read music and vocalize it aloud along with a metronome beat to help anyone be able to learn a piece of music.#jmumustech

@alicehammel What are examples of how a music teacher can be supportive of a student's emotional, behavioral, or cognitive needs while teaching a class such as a large ensemble class? #JMUMusTech

[Emily Werner @EmilyAnn301]

@alicehammel How many college courses would it take to more adequately prepare potential music educators to teach students with disabilities? #JMUMusTech

[Emily Werner @EmilyAnn301]

@rowlexie This issue could be looked at from the other side: could introducing the presence of technology such as cell phones and laptops into the classroom provide other sources of distraction?

[Emily Werner @EmilyAnn301]

@GraceMead16 I don't really have an answer for this, but another thing to think about, do you think we will ever move towards a society where it is common to have entire ensembles on electronic instruments, and would that ever become popular enough to be taught in schools
