The Norton Recordings: Shorter Version: Recordings DVD to accompany The Norton Scores & The Enjoyment of Music, Eleventh Edition

The DVD offers mp3 files along with new Interactive Listening Guides (iLGs) in one convenient package.

• New, Sequential Listening Pedagogy. Each iLG offers students the optimal listening experience by guiding them through four steps to sharpen their listening skills. These task-oriented steps include:

1. Overview – this section of the iLG offers background information and contexts about each work.

2. Journal – reports to the Norton Gradebook and is accessed by students as they encounter prompts that help them to Prepare, Focus, and Reflect on their listening experiences.

3. Guide – This section of the guide breaks the work down into sections and describes what is occurring musically.

4. Listen For – Whether projected in class or accessed in individual study, this section of the guide serves as a reminder of the most salient attributes of the work.

5. Quiz – after students have considered context, listened for discovery, been reminded of sections they must remember, they can click from the iLGs to take and online quiz that reports to the Norton Gradebook.
