Recorder Performance Assessment

Recorder Performance Assessment


Hello everyone! Here are the directions for you assignment this week.

1. Download the Respondus Lockdown Browser

2. Make sure that you have a working video recording device that is NOT your computer. Click on the lockdown browser, log in to Sakai, select tests and quizzes, and then select the Recorder Performance Assessment. YOU WILL ONLY HAVE 15 MINUTES TO PERFORM THE TASKS ON THE RECORDER PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT. Once you have practiced reading the rhythm, note names, and playing the piece a few times (remember, you only have 15 minutes) record yourself performing those three tasks and post it on your blog. Once the fifteen minutes is up, the browser will shut down.

Here are some videos that you might want to review before taking your recorder performance assessment:
