Rena Upitis and Project Partners Develop Unique Online Music Instruction Tool
Dr. Rena Upitis and her project partners have developed a new and free online music instruction tool designed to support music study and instruction.
iSCORE supports music-making with a wide range of features including a personalized homepage that enables students to set goals and priorities, an embedded recorder and online portfolio allowing students to record and save practices and performances, links to composition and sequencing tools, interactive plans, and feedback from teachers.
Dr. Upitis worked on the creation of iSCORE with current Faculty of Education doctoral students Scott Hughes and Meagan Troop, Queen’s University professor and Faculty of Education alumnae Julia Brook and Marie Anderson. The program was developed in partnership with The Royal Conservatory and Concordia University. Supporting the development were the Department of Canadian Heritage, TELUS, and the Matthews family.
