Play each numbered question from this page. Use the same replay policy for all learners. Keep the answer section separate until the first response is recorded. For tapping tasks, record an observation on paper; use the online trainer for device-timed scoring.
Start with the labeled lesson examples. Play each question at the printed tempo, record the first response, then allow a correction. Use the online trainer for a separate new-question check.
