Uniquely designed, the student workbook offers countless listening and writing exercises that are closely aligned with the teacher's manual. With the help of 108 MP3 audio examples, students create and notate rhythms, learn to distinguish intervals by ear, improvise on scat syllables to a blues, and practice their class arrangement parts at home with the playback. The progress they make is documented in a learning diary format at the end of each chapter. The student workbook follows the structure of the teacher's manual and includes exercises and tasks for listening, (note) writing, singing, improvising, playing, and much more. The design of the workbook allows for tasks to be completed as homework or in class, whether individually, in pairs, or in groups. The provision of listening and music examples is presented in a format suitable for the students.
