COURSE INFO
This is an introductory music course which teaches the elements of music, how to listen, and presents the major stylistic and historical periods of Euro-Western art music. Great works in various genres are introduced.
This course has been designed and structured for students with very little or no musical background. It aims to provide you with the tools for a basic understanding of music. This understanding of basic concepts of music will undoubtedly lead to better enjoyment of music.
Lectures, exercises, and evaluation components are all part of this new program.
The MOST important thing in GETTING STARTED with ONLINE MUSIC APPRECIATION is to secure the CD-ROM which has all the information you will need for this class: all texts and interactive links, practice sessions, reviews, aural and visual training sessions, etc. plus all the software you might need to add for the program’s execution.
You will get a number inside the CD case (which you will enter when you register) and you automatically will be entered into the program’s class-roll. Your instructor has full access to your work and will be online to help you as well as the full support of a tech group from the Connect4education Company
Basically, this program gives you quizzes at the end of each unit and a final which consist of those same questions. This system has been proven to be very effective and you can be assured of a good grade if you “keep up” and ask your instructor for help when needed
