Welcome to MSBandDirector.com. World's largest membership-based grass-roots, non-corporate sponsored network of professional music educators all working in the internet 2.0 collaborative format. Getting started is easy as there are homework assignments for directors at the bottom left of the main page. The most misunderstood aspect of professional networking as opposed to social networking is the fact that as colleagues are added, so is the accessibility of their uploaded content. So, adding colleagues increases the amount of videos, worksheets, blogs, pictures, handouts, pdfs, and forums that can be seen.

again welcome,

Russ WEaver
