Music Fundamentals Online will help the student develop mastery of music fundamentals prior to enrolling in the core courses in music theory. The course includes a pre-test which determines the specific areas in which the student needs additional work. The student will need to complete only those areas where such work is indicated. The course content is thus tailored to the individual student. Unlike other Internet courses, Music Fundamentals Online has no human instructor at the other end.
Material is presented in a concise manner.
Multiple learning and skill development strategies are available for each topic, depending on the needs of the student. Instruction is highly interactive. Each lesson is accompanied by online practice and testing, which provide immediate feedback and development of mastery. Student progress is tracked, so as each topic is mastered, this information is stored on the web server, and students can pick up at the point where they left off after their last session. Enrollment and Costs There will be a nominal course fee for all enrollees to cover administrative and maintenance costs.
