Northern Grid for Learning - School Broadband, eSafety, Learning Resources and More

Schools have access to the first half grade of The Essential Guitar, Bass, Keyboards and Drums Skills courses (over 20 hours of tuition per student).

Gigajam lessons follow the See, Hear, Play and Improve principle. The students can access easy to read lesson notes then watch a video of the exercises and techniques. They can then practice by playing along using the ‘Xtractor’ software and then get feedback on their performance using the Gigajam Analyser.

The Gigajam resource also lends itself to ‘Blended Learning’ techniques through personalised learning, whole class tuition, collaborative learning and live performance.
