The Board of the MEI (Music Encoding Initiative) is pleased to announce a new interest group: Digital Pedagogy Interest Group. We invite those interested in incorporating music encoding and related practices into their teaching to subscribe to the mailing list http://lists.uni-paderborn.de/mailman/listinfo/mei-pedagogy-ig and/or the MEI Slack channel (join the MEI Slack here). We are interested in developing documentation with learning goals and outcomes appropriate for different levels and types of classes; identifying tools that enable such classes to support varying levels of digital literacy and computational competency by generating modules with easy on-ramps adaptable to many kinds of pedagogies, including assessment models; sharing expertise, particularly in pedagogical contexts; diversifying the repertoire used in instruction; and extending the digital community to include institutions and individuals who may otherwise lack support for making and teaching digital knowledge. The Group will meet during the annual Music Encoding Conference and through electronic means to identify specific projects that will advance the goals noted above, both in the short and long term, according to the needs and capacities of our members. The group will keep an archive of discussions that anyone may review.Please contact the Administrative Co-Chairs with any questions: Joy H. Calico and Anna Kijas.
