2012 TI:ME Conference joins forces with the Jazz Education Network!

JEN is proud to announce that TI:ME (Technology Institute for Music Educators) will be holding their 2012 National TI:ME Conference in a collaborative partnership with the Jazz Education Network 2012 Conference. Due to the nature of this year's professional collaboration, proposals that address technology topics in context of jazz education materials/curriculum were strongly encouraged. The proposal submission deadline has now passed. In addition to technology clinic sessions, specialized 90 minute training sessions in the computer lab will be offered by advance registration via the TI:ME website. These sessions will include "Bring your own laptop" sessions for the attendees.
