I Am Wikipedia (And So Can You!)

While Wikipedia should be explored with healthy skepticism (and what in the whole world shouldn't be?), this free and easily accessed encyclopedia is an effective way to first explore most any topic, a powerful resource to launch further study, and yes, a source of entertainment. Download a free book on guitar from Wikibooks, explore Wikisource, walk off the plank and succumb to Colbert on Wikiquote, and muse on the farcical Uncyclopedia.

I Am Wikipedia: This Music Therapy Activities Wiki is an online guide to activity ideas, resources, techniques, tips, research, and further reading. Content is categorized by the role of music, such as Songwriting or Music Games. Find new iPad apps, a Boomwhacker handbook, Karaoke websites, Repertoire, or search songs for Lyric Analysis with a huge database of popular music themes, concepts, and topics. 
And So Can You! Everyone approaches Music Therapy differently and addresses various needs for diverse populations. Small contributions you can offer make a huge difference! Each page also encourages you to add your name to the list of contributors. The more people contribute their suggestions, resources, complementary blog posts, books, web pages, etc., the more benefit we can all receive. Please spend a few moments to share your activity ideas, resources, techniques, tips, research findings, and educational material to further our understanding; just click "Edit" on any page or "Contribute" (top right) a new page altogether.
