DAWs and Re/Mixing as Participatory Music-Making

Popular music can offer opportunities for engaging learners in participatory, critical, and social spaces. This can be particularly true when engaging with digital technologies. In this presentation, we explore a project that invites students to create compositions by mixing audio samples and compositional riffs to respond to a theme. These are projects that have low barriers to entry, offer multiple opportunities for sharing, and embrace opportunities for social connection between students.
