We know you’re waiting to see the online demo and we’re sorry we missed the intended January release date. We really appreciate your interest and patience so we wanted to provide you an update on our progress.
Earlier this week we had our first look at the demo, and tested it with a couple of Jaroslav’s advisors here in Dunedin. Their feedback on lesson content is all positive, but we also learnt that we need to adapt the design layout and formatting to make it more appealing to children.
While the current format is suited to adult learning, we agree that it does lack appeal, especially for the under 10’s. So it’s back to the drawing board we go.
We’d like to make the suggested changes so that the demo is as good as we can get it before releasing it for your feedback. Thanks for your ongoing patience, please let us know if you have any questions.
Jaroslav probably wouldn’t have even mentioned it if I hadn’t asked but as of February 2009 he is one of the youngest ever musicians to gain the Fellowship Diploma of the St Cecilia School of Music. Proving age is no barrier to talent Congratulations! from your team here at Upstart, Dunedin.
Congratulation to the team in Christchurch for pulling together such a successful conference 09, to everyone that came along last Thursday to find out a little more about our project and to people for providing contact details so that we can keep you up to date.
The demo we had planned for the end of the months is slightly behind schedule and our developers are committed to another big project for the next couple of weeks but rest assured we will be in touch as soon as it is available.
To those of you taking the time to offer advice, ideas and suggestions, a big thank you. We intend to use your feedback to ensure our product meets the needs of both teachers and students and quite simply we couldn’t achieve this without your help. Again, thanks for taking the time to help.
We have arranged with the Conference Committee the use of the Library at College House on the afternoon of Thursday 22 January from 4:15pm until dinner. This will provide you the opportunity to catch up with Jaroslav to share and discuss your feedback.
The team is hard at work to have this available to you by Friday the 30th of January. If you would like to be one of the first people to see how the online learning model and admin. system will work for you please click here to email Renee your contact details and she will let you know as soon as it becomes available.
If you are a New Zealand music teacher then we would like to offer you the chance to be one of the first to test drive our innovative online learning solution. For more information and to register for your free trial please contact us
