| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺北教育大學 === 音樂學系碩士班 === 100 === The purpose of this study was to explore the effects of the icon-assisted instruction on third-grade students’ music reading. The third-grade elementary school students in Taichung City were selected as the participants of this study by using cluster sampling. The experimental group received icon-assisted instruction. while the control group had traditional instruction. Before the experiment, students took a researcher-developed pre-test Two groups received two class periods a week, 15 minutes in each period, 10 weeks is totil. After the experiment, a post-test was administered to both groups.
The collected data were analyzed quantitatively by using the independent samples t-test and paired-samples t-test. The results of this study were as follows.
1. The icon-assisted instruction design should base on the development of students’ music concepts and learning abilities. The content should include perceiving pitch, beat, rhythm, intensity, tempo, and expression.
2. The icon-assisted instruction promoted students’ learning effects in music reading.
A. Although there was no significant difference between the two groups after the instruction, the icon-assisted instruction had positive effects on students’ music reading.
B. The experimental group students’ music reading abilities in pitch, beat, rhythm, intensity, tempo, and expression were enhanced.
C. The experimental group got significantly higher grades than the control group in pitch, beat, rhythm, intensity, tempo, especially in abstract expression.
D. The icon-assisted instruction could promote students’ ability in recognizing the position of notes, but not necessarily in pitch.
According to the findings of this study, recommendations for the future research were proposed at last.
