I think it does but further along in the lessons. Just keep working on it.

The only problem I'm coming up against is trying to figure out why they don't have us use ABC to identify the notes? I've never herd of identifying notes with numbers in all my years of singing and I've never used Do Re mi other than in Music Man, so I'm adding the 3rd element of saying the notes in addition to the numbers and Do Re Mi. Could anyone please tell me if there is anything wrong with this? Or let me know why the course just doesn't allow one to sing the note names?

Well this class from Dancing Dots is totally accessible, great for anyone wanting to learn a little piano, music theory and Braille Music at the same time. I've just started going through it yesterday, but by the way everything has been so far it looks like it will be amazing! No more having to ask everyone how long that not is really supposed to be! :P Now my questions are: What's the best kind of Braille display to read vocal music on? I think with the words above and the notes below? and if DD has a group of tests I could take acting like a mid-term and or a final? an educational institution calls for tests to be administered in order for the class to be credible. I can get a proctor and compile a test if I don't find one, but I'm wondering if DD has a group of tests that could be administered at certain intervals that would make this course credible?

Hi Brandon, I'm interested in that course for the blind. I took radio production for almost 2 years at the university, and it was only partially accessible.

Hello, I'm wondering what class in school DD's Introduction to Music For The Blind is equivalent to? Music Theory 1? Also does DD have a proctor system or test system so one could get credit to an educational institution by going through this course independently?
