What it asks

  1. How many semiquavers make one semibreve?
    A semibreve (whole note) lasts 4 beats and a semiquaver (sixteenth note) lasts 0.25; 4 ÷ 0.25 = 16.
  2. How many semiquavers make one quaver?
    A quaver (eighth note) lasts 0.5 beats and a semiquaver (sixteenth note) lasts 0.25; 0.5 ÷ 0.25 = 2.
  3. How many crotchets make one minim?
    A minim (half note) lasts 2 beats and a crotchet (quarter note) lasts 1; 2 ÷ 1 = 2.

About this kit.

Semibreve to semiquaver, in beats.

What the arts, music and design kits are

Music theory and listening, art history and technique, drama, film and design: intervals heard, notes placed on a staff, works and their periods identified, techniques named on an image, performances recorded.

Why they are built this way

The arts are seen and heard, and a written question cannot carry a chord or a brushstroke. The media shapes here play the clip and show the image; the recording shapes keep the performance. That is how the arts are examined, and now it can be done at home.

How to use them

Use the listening kits for ear training daily; they are made by rule. Use the image kits for period and technique. Record performances for a teacher to mark against a rubric.

Made by rule

This kit is made in code: every time it opens, the numbers, words or arrangements are drawn fresh from its rule, so the same kit taken twice is two different quizzes from one rule. There is no answer bank to find, and the practice never runs out. Each question carries its explanation, shown at once in study mode.

The shape: maths expression

An equation or expression typed and checked: algebra, calculus and any answer that is a formula rather than a number.

Expressions, numbers and single-form answers are marked by rule, with tolerances and half-credit tolerances where you set them. A typed expression or chemical equation is compared sign for sign, with spacing ignored, so each form you accept is listed, and a slip that would be forgiven in a word is never forgiven here; working and code are marked by a reader against your rubric, step by step.

Taking it

Open it in study mode for the answer and the explanation after each question, and a retry of only what you missed. Switch to exam mode for the real conditions. It comes due again in a few days; the dashboard shows what is due and what you missed last time. Share it with a code for a class, print it as a paper, or host it on a screen for a room.

Questions.

What is in the Note values kit?
10 questions made by rule with fresh numbers every time it is opened, each with an explanation. Semibreve to semiquaver, in beats.
Does it cost anything?
A free account opens every kit. Procto AI’s writing runs on a monthly allowance that the free plan includes; a children’s kit uses none of it, because its questions are made by rule.
What happens after the quiz?
The study screen shows the answer and the explanation after each question, then the questions missed, and offers a retry of those. Come back in a few days and take it again: what is still right then is what is known.
