The MENC Creativity Special Research Interest Group (SRIG) just launched their new website: http://www.musicalcreativity.com. This website is a great resource for teachers and researchers who are interested in issues related to musical creativity and resources for the classroom.
The first featured newsletter is written by Dr. Susan Mills from Appalachian State University. Be sure to check out her ideas for arranging and composing in the classroom
I currently serve as Web Editor for MusicalCreativity.com. So, if you have any feedback or suggestions for content, please feel free to email me and let us know. Also, if you have something to contribute, please email our Creativity SRIG Chair Michele Kaschub.
