THE RESEARCH PROJECT EVALUATING POTENTIAL NEW PEDAGOGICAL STRATEGIES FOR MUSIC EDUCATION IN HIGHER EDUCATION

Abstract

The value of systematic education and music pedagogy is being more recognised by an increasing number of individuals all around the globe. Due to the fact that they are founded on instruction that is both well-informed and research-based, piano lessons have the ability to bridge the gap that exists between the non-professional piano teaching sector and the academic world. In addition, the study investigates the potential impact that these evaluations on the appropriateness of their training in piano abilities may have on the method in which they use a variety of piano talents while instructing students in a classroom setting. There was a total of twelve distinct functional piano skills that were included in the questionnaire that was produced by the researcher. Improvisation, sight reading, accompaniment, playing piano repertory, composition, score consuming literature, techniques, melodic progressions, harmonisation, transposition, and modulation were some of the talents that were included in this set of abilities. This study analyses the relationships that exist between music education and virtue, human beings, mental health, cognitive development, and imaginative problem-solving. The research makes use of quantitative data to investigate these connections. As a result of these results, the hypothesis that children's exposure to music significantly improves their overall competence is given more credence. The hypothesis is given greater weight as a result of the quantitative analysis that was carried out in this study project to determine the connections that exist between music instruction and a variety of individual skills. The holes that were caused by the lack of a quantitative analysis of the teaching of music in past studies are addressed by our work, which also presents vital ideas for how universities could increase their involvement, curriculum building, and evaluation in this subject.
