Sibelius 6.2 and Sibelius 7 network versions have a slew of features to give teachers
extra classroom control.

A single, simple Classroom Control window shows you all the Sibelius copies that are
running, as well as the students' usernames. You can freeze students' programs when you
want them to pay attention.

Get a copy of the score each student is working on—or send a score to any student, or to
all of them at once. You can also prompt students to save a version of their score with the
Versions feature, to help you track their progress over time.

And it's all password protected, for complete security.

Sibelius Network Licence Server

No matter how many Sibelius network licences your school owns, the Sibelius Licence Server
makes it easy for students to access them from any networked computer in the school.

Easy to set up—easy to use

Sibelius Licence Server features an easy-to-use control panel interface that
non-technical teachers can use. It’s fast and simple to assign licences, replace computers,
upgrade to newer versions of Sibelius, and track licences.

Experience the freedom of check-out licences

If students at your institution bring their own laptop computers to school, you can now let
them take copies of Sibelius home with them for a limited period of time. This enables them to
enjoy all the benefits of Sibelius for the duration of a semester, or over a weekend or the
summer vacation—for up to a year.

This type of temporary licence is called a check-out licence, because students “check it out” of the
Licence Server when they take their personal computers away from the school network, and then
“check it back in” when they next connect to the school network once more. The school effectively
has one fewer licence available until the checked-out licence is returned. If a student does not
check the licence back in, it eventually expires, after which the student cannot run the software
on his or her computer until it is reconnected to the school network.

There is no additional charge for using Sibelius’s check-out licence feature. What’s more, if you’re
currently using a stand-alone, non-networked site licence of Sibelius, you can now switch to using a
network site licence for no additional charge—simply contact our support team for details.

You may even find it useful to purchase additional seats specifically for the purpose of checking out
licences for students, so you could earmark one set of seats for use on the school network, and
another for check-out licences for your student

I've just done a round up of my favourite Music Ed iPad apps
Pretty hard to get to the end of the list, but it's a start.
Most specificly I'm interested in import and export particulars.

How easy is it to create, re use and share music files.
Does it inspire me to play more or find out more?
Or is it an engaging game  that teaches on the sly?
Appshopper is really helpfull as it helps you track app prices,
and alerts you to apps which are free for a certain length of time.
its also a good place to check for new apps.
So if you are interested check out my list here.
