ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for simultaneously teaching a plurality of students how to play a musical instrument including programmed audio-visual instruction by pre-recorded audio inputs, prearranged note combinations displayed on a student light strip, confirmation of right or wrong answers on periodic quiz questions, sequential pictures projected on a screen, and correlated printed lesson materials, which programmed instruction may be stopped by the teacher in order to selectively instruct certain students by broadcasting oral instructions, and by playing a master keyboard which activates the student light strip. A teacher's console is provided for collectively monitoring the student quiz results, and for selectively listening to individual student musical performances during the programmed instruction period. The pre-recorded audio inputs are on one channel of a master tape, and coded impulses on a second channel of the master tape activate the instrument light strip, control the picture projectors, and pre-set quiz answer display panels.
