Introducing Music Theory Online for Schools With the emergence of the Internet in schools some 30 years ago, Michael Luck founder of Music Theory Online for schools had a vision of utilising the flexibility of the world wide web to enhance the study of Music Theory. During the early 90’s, Michael set about creating his first website Music Theory Online. During the following years, Michael added more content to create a website that boasts over 1800 pages.
The website covers the
requirements of the ABRSM music theory Grades 1 – 5. For each grade, there is information about the requirements, short video tutorials covering all the major aspects, and Q&A sections to allow the student to monitor their progress. There are also online tests which are timed and provide automatic marking; providing an additional layer in the learning process, and hopefully enhancing students’ confidence in an exam situation. During the pandemic, the website was redesigned to help teachers and students overcome some of the difficulties associated with teaching and learning online. There is now a section for schools that can help reduce
teacher workloads, whilst providing a comprehensive educational experience.
