The Musical Contexts Year 8 Online Digital Music Baseline Assessment can be used at the start of Year 8 to obtain instant data to assess pupil's prior knowledge and understanding of music.
The test has 50 QUESTIONS and can therefore be easily converted to a percentage.
The test is entirely multiple choice and completely self-marking.
The test is in two parts. The first section (23 questions), requires the Year 8 Online Digital Music Baseline Assessment Test MP3 Audio File (included with this bundle) to be played continuously (or paused between sections/questions although silence and announcements are included). The second section (27 questions) does not require any music or audio extracts and teachers are free to set a suitable time period for completion.
Please note that is is an online digital product only and is not available in hard/paper copy format.
