Technology in music education: apps, AI and software

Technology is changing music education, but not everything new actually helps. This dossier takes a critical look at apps, AI, online lesson platforms and software for music schools. Why is WhatsApp not a student tracking system? What should a good music app do, and what should it avoid? Is AI in music education hype or a useful tool, and why does an online course not replace a teacher? The starting point is always the same: technology should support teaching and save time, not distract from the music or from the relationship between teacher and student.
