Children can learn and explore with their parents, or on their own (depending on age and ability), in a safe and secure online educational environment.

Javatrax is also used for sight-reading and ear training drills. 3. Javakeys - a virtual keyboard feature incorporated into Tritone's Javatrax evaluatio
