Earpeggio Summary:
I chose Earpeggio as my app for the first Smackdown Assignment. Earpeggio is an ear training app that lets you improve your musical hearing. It is designed to help you improve your
ability to identify musical elements like intervals, chords, scales, and rhythms purely by ear. It
offers a wide variety of exercises such as chord progressions, melody dictation, and interval
comparison. I will use this app for my career because I am interested in teaching music and
giving music lessons. This app will be perfect to give to students so they can independently
practice and hone up on their skills before their lesson. I can also use the leaderboards tab to
network with students and keep track of their progress and study sessions.
Earpeggio is a very customizable app and can be geared towards beginner musicians or experienced musicians because of the wide variety of skills to practice. There are easy skills such as basic melodic dictation and difficult skills such as harmonic compound interval identification, making it a versatile tool for musicians at any skill level. The app allows users to track their progress through detailed statistics and customize their practice sessions, ensuring that each user can work at their own specific pace and choose the areas in which they need improvement.
I have never heard about this app and now I will definitely use it. I always looked for somethings that can improve my musical hearing. This app is a fun and interactive way to do it!
ReplyDeleteI love that you’re considering using this app to promote independent practice among your students. Encouraging them to engage with the material outside of lessons will likely enhance the learning experience. I also think the leaderboards feature is an innovative way to foster a sense of community and healthy competition among your students. It could motivate them to practice more frequently and strive for improvement.
ReplyDeleteIve never heard of this app before, but it seems really cool. Honestly I probably wont ever use it personally, but atleast I know about it now and if someone ever needs a suggestion I have this in my tool belt. From what you showed it actually looks really easy to use! thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThis app looks like a really interesting and easy way to learn all the intricate details of understanding music. I am actually going to recommend this to my brother because he is currently learning how to play the guitar and this would be a tremendous help to him. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThis app seems like an amazing way to have your students hold themselves to a musical standard when you're not hovering over them. I always found that with smartmusic or bandlab assignments that you could kind of BS your way through them as an instrumentalist in some way or another. But, this app is going to create accountability in students that have trouble getting in the habit of practicing at home.
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of this app before, but it seems like it is very detailed and gives users plenty of options to improve their musical skills. I like how you are able to take tests that will give statistical results after being completed.
ReplyDeleteThis app was pretty cool, especially the customizable part. It’s great that the app can be adjusted to suit your preferences.
ReplyDeleteThis app seems very nice. Even though I won't be using this for my students, its a good app because it can help your students truly understand the music and work it out on their own
