dc.description.abstract | The primary purpose of this study was to develop and implement interactive multimedia instrumental discrimination skills training courseware for beginning clarinet students. Ancillary problems of this study were: (1) to evaluate the effects of instrumental discrimination training on instrumental (clarinet) performance achievement; (2) to determine the relationship between the beginning clarinet student's instrumental discrimination skills and self-assessment skills; (3) to determine the relationship between the beginning clarinet student's instrumental discrimination skills and musical aptitude; and (4) to evaluate participating students' attitudes toward the use of interactive multimedia technology in instrumental music instruction. Eighteen sixth-grade students who took a beginning instrumental music course at a middle school in Detroit participated in the study. These students were assigned randomly to the two experimental groups prior to the experiment. This study employed a cross-over design. In the first experimental period (Fall 1995), experimental group 1 received the interactive multimedia discrimination skills training in conjunction with traditional small group lessons. During the same period, experimental group 2 only received traditional small group lessons. In the second experimental period (Winter 1996) experimental group 2 received the same treatment. Experimental group 1 only had traditional group lessons during this period. A test of visual-aural instrumental discrimination (TVAID) with three additional tests were used to measure the various effects of the interactive multimedia treatment. A questionnaire and observations were also used to investigate student attitudes toward the interactive multimedia program. Based on the analysis of both quantitative and qualitative data, the following conclusions were drawn: (1) regular use of interactive multimedia could improve visual instrumental discrimination skills of beginning clarinet students; (2) there was no significant relationship between musical aptitude and visual discrimination skills; (3) there was no statistically significant relationship between discrimination skills and instrumental performance; (4) discrimination skills and self-assessment skills were somewhat related; and (5) interactive multimedia technology could function as an agent for refreshing and motivating instrumental teachers and students, and providing effective instructional aids for instrumental music classes. | en_US |
