Meeting 4 assignment

Before 8am on Tuesday, Sept. 10, please do the following:

  • Review the discussion on second-species counterpoint from Monday’s class on Piazza.
  • Read the resource on Composing a second-species counterpoint, and watch the video at the end.
  • Log on to Learning Catalytics, use session ID 76824, and take the short quiz.
  • For each work group: Create a Google Drive folder with all students’ last names in its title. Share it with everyone in the group, and with me. Upload your two best first-species exercises thus far for me to take a look at and give you feedback.

Before Wednesday’s class, please review any feedback I provide you individually via Learning Catalytics or collectively on the course website after the quizzes have been completed.

Notes on the quiz:
All quizzes in this course are open-note. You are also encouraged to talk to each other, in person or on Piazza, as you work on this quiz. However, be sure that the short-answer responses are 1) short (!), and 2) in your own words.

Be sure to bring manuscript paper and a pencil, or a laptop/tablet with music notation software, to class on Wednesday. (I highly recommend MuseScore, NoteFlight, and Lilypond—all free, all with different strengths.)
