Download or read book The New Handbook of Research on Music Teaching and Learning written by Music Educators National Conference (U.S.) and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2002-04-18 with total page 1249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Featuring chapters by the world's foremost scholars in music education and cognition, this handbook is a convenient collection of current research on music teaching and learning. This comprehensive work includes sections on arts advocacy, music and medicine, teacher education, and studio instruction, among other subjects, making it an essential reference for music education programs. The original Handbook of Research on Music Teaching and Learning, published in 1992 with the sponsorship of the Music Educators National Conference (MENC), was hailed as "a welcome addition to the literature on music education because it serves to provide definition and unity to a broad and complex field" (Choice). This new companion volume, again with the sponsorship of MENC, explores the significant changes in music and arts education that have taken place in the last decade. Notably, several chapters now incorporate insights from other fields to shed light on multi-cultural music education, gender issues in music education, and non-musical outcomes of music education. Other chapters offer practical information on maintaining musicians' health, training music teachers, and evaluating music education programs. Philosophical issues, such as musical cognition, the philosophy of research theory, curriculum, and educating musically, are also explored in relationship to policy issues. In addition to surveying the literature, each chapter considers the significance of the research and provides suggestions for future study.Covering a broad range of topics and addressing the issues of music education at all age levels, from early childhood to motivation and self-regulation, this handbook is an invaluable resource for music teachers, researchers, and scholars.

Book The Effect of Computer assisted Instruction on Acquisition of Musical Skill by Adolescents

Download or read book The Effect of Computer assisted Instruction on Acquisition of Musical Skill by Adolescents written by Brian Patrick Butler and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computer-assisted instruction is the use of computer software programs as a teaching aid to implement instruction. There are five types of CAI software – drill and practice, game,tutorial, simulation, and teacher resource – that can be delivered via stand alone computer,network computer, or Internet. This study used mixed-methods research, combining both quantitative and qualitative data analysis, to determine a correlation between participant results of a pretest and posttest and method of instruction. Also, student attitude toward the use of computers during music instruction was analyzed. Methods of qualitative data collection were:researcher observation, artifact collection, and participant interviews. Methods of quantitative data collection were: raw score analysis. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of computer-assisted instruction in the acquisition of musical skill by adolescent learners and to explore student attitudes toward the use of computers.

Book A Study of the Contrast Between Computer Assisted Instruction and the Traditional Teacher learner Method of Instruction in Basic Musicianship

Download or read book A Study of the Contrast Between Computer Assisted Instruction and the Traditional Teacher learner Method of Instruction in Basic Musicianship written by Arthur Clarence Vaughn and published by . This book was released on 19?? with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to contrast the effectiveness of computer-assisted ear-training instruction with the traditional style of ear-training instruction to determine if computer-assisted instruction increased the students' ability to identify auditory stimuli utilized in Basic Musicianship at a rate different from that of the traditional methodology. Procedures The setting of this experiment was at Oregon State University, Corvallis, Oregon, using classes in Basic Musicianship, during the fall and winter quarters, 1976-77. Eighty students were randomly selected and randomly assigned to either the computer-assisted method (experimental group) or the traditional method (control group). Both groups used the same textbook and received the same lectures. The experimental group received the traditional classroom instruction including the theoretical underpinning necessary for understanding the concepts of ear-training, and used computer-assisted programs to reinforce the classroom learning. The control group received the same theoretical background as did the experimental group, but was free to reinforce this learning in any manner found satisfactory to each student. The Solomon Four-Group design was used to investigate pretest effect on the posttest scores and on the treatment. The Aliferis Music Achievement Test was selected as the criterion measure and was used as both pretest and posttest. Those not required to take the pretest were given a placebo developed by the researcher. Eight hours of computer-assisted instruction was administered to members of the experimental group between pretesting and posttesting. Selected Findings Using the repeated measures analysis of variance to contrast the experimental and control groups on the basis of the criterion measure posttest, the following findings were noted: 1. The computed F for the total criterion test was 12.030 for the treatment variable, 142.300 for the test variable, and 32.292 for the interaction, a significant difference favoring the experimental group at the 0.05 level of confidence. 2. Contrasting the mean scores, based on test question categories of melodic, harmonic, and rhythmic, showed a significant -a significant difference again favoring the experimental group. In the melodic category the computed F was 6.527 for the treatment variable, 125.787 for the test variable, and 32.814 for the interaction. In the harmonic category the computed F was 4.597 for the treatment variable, 40.599 for the test variable, and 8.270 for the interaction. In the rhythmic category the computed F was 10.382 for the treatment variable, 47.134 for the test variable, and 9.640 for the interaction. All of the F-ratios were significant at the 0.05 level of confidence. 3. Selected t-tests revealed that both groups began the experiment at the same level of music achievement, and that the pretest had no learning effect upon the posttest scores. 4. Investigation of the sample using the Bartlett-Box F test for homogeneity of variance found that both groups were representative of the population. 5. In addition to the criterion measure, a study of student attitude toward computer-assisted instruction was made. The results of this questionnaire revealed that the students in the experimental group held a positive attitude regarding the use of the computer to study ear-training. Conclusions The following conclusions were made based on and supported by the data in this study: 1. That significantly more academic growth in ear-training occurred when students utilized the computer for this study than when they did not. 2. That it made no difference if the type of computer-assisted instruction was melodic, harmonic, or rhythmic, achievement growth occurred in all areas. 3. That students using the computer were able to save a considerable amount of time in developing ear-training skills. 4. That because students could conceivably complete the eartraining portion of Basic Musicianship in less time, the expense of offering such courses might be reduced. 5. That the students showed a willingness to experiment with alternative methods of instruction. 6. That the concerns of music educators toward computer assisted instruction need to be addressed before large-scale utilization is possible.

Download or read book The Effect of Flexible Practice Computer assisted Instruction and Cognitive Style on the Development of Music Performance Skills of High School Instrumental Students written by Peter J. Perry and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The purpose of this research was to investigate the effect Flexible–Practice computer-assisted instruction software (specifically SmartMusic TM) and cognitive style (field-dependence and field-independence) had on the development of music performance skills in high school instrumental music students. Eighty high school students (N = 80) participated in the four-week study. Subjects completed the Group Embedded Figures Test (GEFT) to assess their cognitive style. Following this, the researcher randomly assigned the population to control and treatment groups. Control group subjects practiced in a traditional rehearsal setting, while the treatment group worked with SmartMusic TM exclusively for the study period. The researcher used a pretest to establish a baseline for skills, and a posttest to assess musical performance skill development. Performance skills improved for the entire population, regardless of the instructional method used. In analyzing comparisons of total score means, subjects displayed typical field dependent and field independent characteristics in the performance of pretests and posttests for both control and treatment groups. Field dependent subjects demonstrated success in the traditional rehearsal method, while field independent subjects demonstrated success using SmartMusic TM. A factorial 2 X 2 ANOVA revealed significant interaction between CAI usage and cognitive style (p
