Students respond to ear training examples by using an interactive or collaborative slide deck. Examples can be short rhythm or solfege patterns. Students begin by choosing an option that matches the example and advance up to full rhythmic and melodic dictation. Interactive slide decks allow the teacher and student to receive immediate feedback and assessment of learning to track progress towards goals.

This plan guides teachers in exercising audiation techniques to develop aural skills for young musicians. These skills can be continually developed in warm-ups and literature in call-and-response style instruction.
