Abstract
Suzuki believed that learning environment would determine the success and failure of students in music. Therefore, he not only provided teachers with useful and logical teaching skills, but also stressed on the importance of parents’ participation as a “home teacher”. In this paper, we propose a Web 2.0 learning platform (WASSAP) to support Suzuki method of music education, especially aiming at supporting busy parents who do not have adequate time to accompany their child in person to learn. Alerts are used as a mechanism to facilitate communications among parents, teachers, and peers.
