The USC studenet chapter of the National Association of Teachers of Singing hosted a workshop during which David presented ways in which target practice and gamification can be used to bring vocology to life. Those present enjoyed creating life-sized model larynges, playing with technology, and other fun, instructive, ways to dig into dense material. Many commented that the playful nature of how the information was presented helped them turn off their critical mind and let the information sink in. Further, the practice of creating and playing the game meant that they had to exercise their knowledge in a hands-on fashion, that led them to be able to more accurately describe it after the fact. The experience of moving back-and-forth between learner and teacher mode was another highlight that they all enjoyed.
