The Effect of Computer-Assisted Instruction on Piano Education: An Experimental Study of Students of biological sciences

Abstract

The paper follows the experimental study of "the effect of computer-assisted instruction on piano teaching: An experimental study of students of biological sciences". It analyzes the results, which show a significant increase in practice time and success rate. Scientists from both universities have been working on a project to see if computer-assisted instruction would be useful for music education. They ran an experiment with students to see its effects. They found that it had greater effects on some types of learning than others. The paper summarizes the findings and talks about implications for future research in this field as well as practical applications for computer-assisted instruction in various fields, including education. Evaluation was based on three areas: practice, piano playing, and music appreciation. Students were divided into two groups: computer students and students without computers. The research team had expected that by using the computer, students will be able to practice longer and improve more quickly. The experiment also supposed that the additional practice would affect their concentration and listening skills in playing well-known pieces of music.

“…As long as all the fingers are independently supported, the fingers are able to grip the keys, the palms are moderately relaxed, and the power of the arms is smoothly sent to the bottom of the keys, the unity of tone and volume is well achieved, thus improving the quality of our piano playing [14]. In addition, it is important to feel the shoulder and the fingertips as two points of support when playing, although the palm is empty in the middle, but the palm of the hand can also play the role of support when playing [15]. No matter what kind of tone or speed you encounter, your fingers will always have a good support.…”
