Stephanie Pesto - President, Collegiate AMEA


What is the most important aspect of being a successful teacher? Being willing to continually learn! Going to events and clinics outside of the university setting that will enhance your education will put you ahead in your career. As mentioned in the previous issue of the ala breve, Collegiate AMEA is hosting a State Summit at the University of Alabama on October 20th. The Summit is a one-day event that will offer collegiate members the chance to participate in a “First Year Teacher Panel” and attend sessions on Dalcroze methodology, Special Education in music, and Copyright laws.


More detailed


information will be sent to individual CNAfME chapters. Please note this is a free event and breakfast and lunch will be provided. Also, if you wish to attend and have a long distance to travel, the students in the University of Alabama CNAfME chapter will be providing housing.


In addition to this collegiate centered event, the annual AMEA conference is in January, and it is a great way to expand your horizons through educational and inspiring sessions as well as chances to meet new colleagues.


There will be several sessions


geared specifically towards Collegiate AMEA, but all of the sessions are opened to everyone. Please take the time to look over the conference schedule in this issue of the ala breve early to determine what sessions you are interested in attending.


Simply going to these events, however, doesn’t make them fulfilling. In order to be the best educator you can be, you have to be an active participant in your education! Osmosis works well in biology, but learning has to be a voluntary process. If you attend State Summit or AMEA Conference, don’t just attend: participate! The majority of the sessions you will go to


will be extremely interactive and are most beneficial if you take full advantage of all of the activities. On that same note, attend as many sessions as possible. Make the most out of the time you are putting in, and it will be worth it in the end.
