Abstract

During the past several years, a number of workshops were conducted for public school teachers at the elementary levels. Training and materials were provided to help teachers use music as a vehicle to introduce science concepts. Tools used in these workshops include a long spring to introduce standing waves and the concept of harmonics, a monochord to relate frequency ratios to musical intervals, and simple computer software to introduce wave addition and spectral analysis. All of these will be demonstrated and ways of introducing them in the elementary classroom will be discussed. [These workshops were supported with ASA and Eisenhower funds.]
