Writing/Technology Assignment
All Grades:
Please go to Ricci Adams’s web site (musictheory.net). Once there, pretend that you need help working on a particular music theory problem. It could be that you need help learning to sight-read, or learning to hear and memorize the sound of certain intervals. There are also sections on note duration (how long notes last) and simple and compound meter (simple meter divides beats in groups of 2, and compound meter divides beats in groups of 3).
On a piece of paper, write down exactly what problem you are trying to solve. Then work with the web-site and try to use the web –site to help you. When you are finished, write a short review of the web site. Write about at least four things that you think are very good, and at least two that could be improved.
