Practice, practice, practice.
Learning how to read and understand music is like learning a new language.
You can teach your students what they need to know, and keep them on the right track.
But they won't get very far if they don't practice what they're learning.
So where does eMusicTheory.com come in?
Subscribing to eMusicTheory.com lets you spend more time doing what you're best at — teaching! Not
making up new worksheets and tests (you can assign your students a selected drill, at a selected level, with
the click of a few buttons). And not spending endless time correcting student answers or drilling them in class
(you can view and print student scores online for each assignment).
Can I try it out before I subscribe?
Yes! There is a demo account that you can use to try out many of the features that are available.
Sign in as a teacher and set up a student or two. Create a few assignments... then sign in as
one of your students and see what it's like.
IMPORTANT: this demo teacher
account is shared, so anyone else may sign in and change the students and assignments you set up.
You shouldn't require your real-life students to do any of these test assignments.
Here's the username and password for the demo teacher:
username: teacher
password: music
Can I just ask my students to use the free drills?
Yes; the practice drills and
interactive theory pages are free for anyone to
use.
We don't recommend asking your students to print out and hand in their scores:
· Some browsers do not print Java applets (so the printout will just show a gray box where the drill should be)
· Students can choose any settings they want, so it's simple to cheat
· This is the purpose of the inexpensive subscription service. We do not sell advertising or allow any
outside companies to advertise to our visitors, mailing list members, or subscribers; the development of
the drills and the hosting of the website are entirely paid for by subscribers and software purchases.
Do we need to install special software?
No. The only requirements are an internet connection, a web browser, and
the Java™ software. Java™ is already installed on many new computers.
If it's not for some reason (and the drills just show up as gray boxes),
you can download it for free from
Java.com. The exercises
will work on most operating systems (including Windows, Apple,
and Linux), and many different browsers (including Internet Explorer, Firefox,
Safari, Opera, and Netscape).
How will I know when my subscription is running out?
During the last month of your subscription, when you sign in you will see a notice
at the top of your home page telling you how many days you have remaining.
How much does it cost?
Subscriptions are based on a low, monthly fee. You may purchase up to a year
at a time. We plan to offer auto-renewing subscriptions and yearly subscriptions
in the future.
Here are the current rates:
Teacher account with up to 25 students: $9/month
Teacher account with 26 - 75 students: $19/month
Teacher account with 76 - 150 students: $35/month
Teacher account with 151 - 300 students: $65/month
Our school has hundreds or thousands of students - can we subscribe?
Yes! For a long time, we were limiting subscriptions to smaller groups due to important features still
missing, and insufficient server resources. Finally, the server power is here, and the updates are complete
as well. You can now organize your students into classes and sections, and you can set up multiple teacher
accounts to manage them, all on a single subscription.
Pricing is similar to the rates above, customized to the number of students you have. For a quote, for
more information, or for more details on submitting a purchase order, just contact us.
