Teoría

Register at teoria.com and work on rhythmic dictation exercises for at least 15 minutes.
Registration instructions are here. Be sure to register using the first and last name (in that order) that you use in class.
Once registered and signed in, do at least 15 minutes of rhythmic dictation. You can navigate Exercises -> Ear Training >Rhythmic Dictation (in the left-hand column) and set the exercise options as you like, or you can use this link to go the dictation exercise with the options set up at the appropriate beginning level. (The options I’ve set there also appear in the screenshot at the bottom of this page.) However you get to the exercises, once there you can click “Reset score & edit options” and adjust as desired; note that you can change the tempo among other things.
For this assignment you are free to change the exercise options, as long as you work a total of at least 15 minutes. When finished, be sure to select End Exercise and then Save Score, or your results will not be reported to me.
