Noteflight assignment

Here is the link to "A Bicycle Built for Two" Noteflight

I found this software a little less intuitive than MuseScore. This may simply be because I learned how to use music notation software on Sibelius and MuseScore is very similar to Sibelius. I think that MuseScore is easier to use and has more options as far as instrumentation goes. I was a little disappointed that "voice" wasn't an option for an instrument for the free version. To substitute, I had to use the flute and change the instrument name. One feature that I do like about noteflight is that it's easier to share your scores than on MuseScore. This would make it very easy for students to turn their projects in and for students to view their peers work. Also, you don't have to worry about losing your work since it is saved to the internet. You can access your work from anywhere. I think this software would be great to use with my classes since I don't have any student computers in my classroom and we would need to use the computer lab. That way, I don't have to worry about downloading MuseScore on all of the computers in the lab and I don't have to get permission to do so.
