The new SmartMusic is here. Because it lives in the cloud, we are able to refine it constantly. Because teachers never have to download a new version, it can be easy to lose track of how much has been improved over the last few months, let alone years.
Whether you’re already using SmartMusic or are thinking about using it with your students, this archived SmartMusic webinar was created for you.
While SmartMusic includes an unrivaled online repertoire library, there may be times when you wish to augment this library with music you’ve created.
In January 2014, classic SmartMusic for the iPad received School Band and Orchestra magazine’s “Best Tools for Schools” award, in the category of Best Concert Band/Orchestra Teaching Tool.
If you’re using classic SmartMusic, or not using SmartMusic at all, you may not be aware of everything we’ve done to improve new SmartMusic since school let out last spring.
In September we unveiled a demo version of the Sight Reading Builder. With it, educators can instantly generate an infinite number of customized sight-reading exercises for any ensemble.
When your students become strong sight readers, every aspect of their musicianship improves. Of course, developing strong sight readers requires practice – and great sight-reading exercises.
We are continually refining new SmartMusic based on feedback from you. Next week we will address a very popular request; we’re adding visual feedback to indicate when a student has played a note early or late.
Next week the new SmartMusic will look different.
You’ll enjoy a more efficient interface, as well as several additional enhancements in assignment creation, content search, and grading.
The new SmartMusic improves so quickly, it can be hard to keep track off all that’s new, let alone what you can do with it for just $39.99 a year.
