Musical Terms Free

Musical Terms Free provides users with a comprehensive glossary to help them understand the jargon of music. Users can browse the terms in alphabetical order, search for specific terms, or search for favorite terms by tapping the “heart” button. When users select a term, they are presented with the term’s definition and an audio recording of its pronunciation. If users “favorite” a specific term, they can tap the “favorite” menu on the bottom of the screen and they will see a list of the terms they favorited.

Instructional Ideas

1. When students come to an unfamiliar term while reading a text about a topic related to music, students can search this app’s glossary to find the term and learn about it. Students can keep track of the terms they researched by “favoriting” them. This way, students will be able to review the terms when needed.
2. If a teacher assigns students key terms to learn, students can use this app to quickly locate the terms’ definitions and pronunciations.
3. When discussing a topic related to music, teachers can pre-select key terms students must know to engage the conversation. When teachers pre-select these terms, they can “favorite” them. Then, as they lead the discussion, teachers can open their “favorited” terms list and show the class the terms’ definitions.
