Sequence of Materials | The program begins with
third
relationships, chords, and seventh chords. Each chord spelling
section
is followed by an aural spelling section. |

The pace begins at an
intermediate
level and intensifies as the program progresses. |
Quality of Interaction |
This program is an
excellent
application, and would serve as a great resource to any classroom. |
Summary Comments |
As a future educator, I
would
greatly enjoy having this program available in my classroom. |
Method of Record Keeping: |
The
program keeps track of each section, tallying the total score.
|
Summary Comments: |
The clapping sound effect
is a great asset to the scoring, and will build the student's
confidence
as they continue. It would be beneficial if there were a way to
save
your scores as you go. |
MUSIC LESSONS II, Chords
and
Harmony by MiBAC is an amazing application, and has the potential to be
an
excellent resource to classrooms of intermediate level and above.
More
complex sections of the program could be utilized by teachers to brush
up
on their aural skills as well. |
