Teaching during COVID-19
This topic is curated by members of the Learning Futures Network to help each other through the rapidly changing educational landscape that's evolving during the world's response to COVID-19.  Its here to help you identify some quality resources that have been looked over by other educators.  Please remember to comment and offer guidance where you can.  This is more about contribution and sharing than it is about simply taking.

Theory of Music online courses now FREE

As a part of efforts to support music education through the COVID-19 outbreak, we're providing FREE online Theory of Music courses. View all the other support on offer here. AMEB's Online Theory courses allow students to learn music theory at their own pace, independently or supporting what is taught in the classroom or private music studio.

Our online courses for Grades 1 to 3 Theory of Music are now free until June 30 from exams.ameb.edu.au. AMEB has made their Theory Courses free for the time being while we all adapt to learning from home and we hope that teachers, parents and students find this a useful resource.

AMEB is a self-funding organisation that relies on exam fees and book sales to fund the activities that we undertake. For that reason, it is not possible to make exams free.

Kim Flintoff's insight:
The Australian Music Examinations Board is making available some of their Theory of Music courses online.
