On my prep I do (I teach). So yes for about 45 min. of the day. We used to not be allowed to stream music online because it slowed the whole server down. Then this summer they did something magical with the Internet (lol I am technology clueless) so streaming doesn't slow it down anymore. Hello, Pandora!
I will also occasionally play music quietly during student work time if they ask for it, usually instrumental stuff like VSQ or at Christmas time, I played holiday music. I have to be careful to have no swears.
i teach also and have to be careful of the Pandora stations we listen to. you can change an option in the settings to remove explicit content. one time a lingerie ad was up on my screen when I was listening to holiday music on Pandora and I was very thankful that none of my students saw the ad. After that I found the setting to turn off explicit content and had not had an issue since.
Thanks for letting me know! I typically try to bring in CDs (like VSQ) so I can totally control the content, but with the holiday music I did use Pandora. Glad I didn't run into any lingerie ads! I'll try that setting.
Yeah, Pandora or Grooveshark on and off throughout the day. I use earbuds, since we are in cubicles, and I mostly do it to drown out my obnoxious neighbors.
Yes, at least when the zoo is closed to the public for the winter (our administrative office is right next to the gift shop). I listen to my music (either Pandora or iTunes) in the mornings until our Event Coordinator gets in (she sits right behind me), and then we listen to her music.
