Task Description
The task that students had to do was to record the glockenspiel exercise at home. We assigned this task to students because we would like them to demonstrate the technique (use correct hand / pitch accuracy).
By recording it, not only does it encourage them to have more practice, it also gives them a chance to listen to what they played, so they can self-assess their own performance and choose the best one to upload.

Student's Reflection
Before the task, I need to practice notes and rhythm. Firstly, I need to remember where the notes were and practice slowly. After I remembered the notes, I tried to speed it up. The most challenging part was trying to let myself calm down. I tried to take a deep breath before playing. It helped a lot.
Teacher's Comment
Reenie counted the beat correctly when she played the music. It helped her to play the correct rhythm. In music, there was a fermata that performers had to observe to hold the note longer. Reenie played it perfectly.
