nafmeadmin.
nafmeadminWill the topics on the previous forum be copied over to this forum at any point? There was so much great information there, it would be a shame to lose it all!
TIA!
nafmeadminAgreed – and there were some brand new posts right before the migration that I’m sure folks want answers to.
nafmeadminWhen I talked to the office they said they would eventually archive them
nafmeadminBy archiving them, does that mean there’d be a link somewhere in the forums to get to them? Or elsewhere on the NAfME site?
nafmeadminyes, please. and i totally need to refer back to “funny things we’ve said in class” every now and then. that thread cracked me up!!
nafmeadminI just finished my first year of teaching and I found the forums so valuable! I really hope that we will still be able to access all of the old threads.
nafmeadminYou can read the old topics here!

Elizabeth Lasko, NAfME
nafmeadminThank you very much!
nafmeadminI clicked on the “old topic” link above and it’s not working for me. Did it work for anyone else?
nafmeadminYes, Mellophone8, it worked for me.
nafmeadminIt wasn’t working for me when it was first posted, but it is working now.
nafmeadminIs there a way to put up a redirect at the old url to the new forums? I spent a month not realizing they had changed – I thought my browser was just not opening them! I found these by complete accident. I’m sure a bunch of other folks are in the same boat since none of the old pages have redirects. It would be unfortunate for this forum to lose valuable contributors because the change was not announced.
nafmeadminI agree with dreamer of dreams – a large announcement on the old forums page (the page that is linked at http://69.33.175.14/forums), would be great. I see there is an announcement in the old General Music forum about these forums, but you have to go into the forum to look for it. Something that really catches your eye as soon as you load the original forums selection page would probably really help get some traffic here.
nafmeadminThere are several articles on Disability and Your Music Students in the upcoming September Music Educators Journal. To access these, log on to http://www.nafme.org, choose “for Music Educators”, then “Resources” on the top banner, then choose “Periodicals”. You’ll find Music Educators Journal on the next page.
The articles cite many excellent resources that should be of use to you.
Good luck to you and best wishes for a successful school year.
nafmeadminWe’re starting with wimpy 3-string chords also… we’re excited to be playing a mini-concert after only a month of class on November 5th when we’ll take the class to the cabin where “Home on the Range” was written just 15 minutes south of us. I’m hoping to get our media class to come make a music video of us playing that and other cowboy-ish songs. Good thing you taught me well in Colorado Springs… We’re running a 15 member group with all acoustics (a wide variety of styles, shapes, colors, etc). I’ll bring along my mandolin for fun on our little trip.
