Soundz Partnerhip with Adobe AEL's

The Adobe Education Leaders and Soundzabound Royalty Free Music have recently entered a partnership whereby Soundzabound will provide copyright safe audio files via the web to the Adobe Education Leaders (AEL’s) for their technology related projects.

The partnership is a strategic move between the two companies to stimulate 21st Century Learning Skills while meeting the objectives of the AEL’s who are dedicated to enhancing creativity, communication, collaboration and improving the teaching and learning experience in education through technology.

The Soundzabound web-based program consists of multi-platform MP3 files that work universally in all digital software that incorporates audio. For Adobe users, this includes Adobe Premier Elements 7 for video editing and creation of podcasts, Adobe Audition 3 for audio editing and Adobe Photoshop for photo editing and slide-show creation.

The two companies first partnered in 2007 when the Picture This Grant awarded select teachers in San Diego County Schools the equipment and resources to produce podcasts with their students. Adobe Premier ElementsÔ and SoundzaboundÔ Audio were the essential software used in the grant-sponsored projects. As part of the implementation, Soundzabound Trainers (www.soundzabound.com/services), held a full-day workshop in coordination with the San Diego County Board of Education that taught teachers how to produce a podcast using the Adobe Premier Elements and Soundzabound programs.
