SJHS Orchestra Students Use Technology to Become Better Musicians
One of the hardest and scariest things about orchestra and band class is taking playing tests. A playing test is when a student plays a specific song for the teacher, and the teacher grades on how well that student has played. Dr. Samuel Tsugawa’s orchestra classes at SJHS have a new way of doing playing tests. They record their playing tests on a computer, and then send them to Dr. Tsugawa using the Internet. This is done using a program called Smart Music.
