A Computer-Based Tutorial System To Develop Listening Skills Using CD-ROM.
Woodruff, Ernest; Heeler, Phillip
Perceptive listening is obviously crucial to the musical experience. Developing perceptive listening in students of widely varying levels of aptitude and achievement is a great challenge for any music teacher. Efforts must be individualized to be effective, and computer-based instruction provides the necessary tools for individualization. The incorporation of CD-ROM into a tutorial environment gives the student an opportunity to explore a vast quantity of music in a structured setting. A tutorial was constructed for an IBM-compatible microcomputer with CD-ROM and videodisc players attached. The tutorial, which was written in Microsoft QuickBASIC, tracked learner performance and provided remediation on various aural (listening) objectives given to college music appreciation students.
