The Interface of Exercise 7.

This exercise displays two extracts from the facsimile. Each neume on the extracts is connected to a red label-box. The student has to identify each neume on the facsimile by dragging the neume-name from the neume box ( bottom left of screen shot above) into the correct red label-box.

Given the number of choices, we have allowed the student to check the answer in progress. The label-boxes that contain correct neume-names will turn blue when the student clicks Check Answer. Thereafter, it is impossible to move neume-names that are in their correct boxes.

To avoid confusion, only one neume-name will fit into a label-box and any neume-name that is dragged to an illegal position will be returned to the neume box. This is to prevent a student from irretrievably dragging a neume off the screen or dropping one behind a button.
