abstract |
This paper concerns the use of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) in
music classrooms, with the focus on the secondary school music curriculum in the United
Kingdom. In particular, it reports on a study of learners in a UK school using software
designed to support practical music skills. The paper begins by briefly raising and
summarising some key issues for the use of ICT in the UK music curriculum arising
from current research and practice in music education. In this context the study is
described, which was carried out in a British secondary school with 36 pupils in year
8 (aged ≈13). This study investigated whether a commercial CD-ROM entitled Teach Me
Piano Deluxe, which was designed to teach music practical skills was able to support
pupils’ acquisition of music keyboard skills.
The results showed that there was a significant improvement in reading music (staff)
notation and rhythm skills. The study suggests that this is one of the ways in which
ICT may be useful for learning practical music skills in the music classrooms. Such
potential improvement in practical skills may, in turn, enable pupils to approach
music-based activities such as: composing, performing or listening in the classrooms,
with greater confidence, a deeper level of understanding, and appreciation. |
