A Field Study of Sixth-Grade Students' Creative Music Problem-Solving Processes.

DeLorenzo, Lisa C.

Journal of Research in Music Education, v37 n3 p188-200 Fall 1989

Reports on a study that analyzed students' chain of music decisions from problem perception to problem solution. Found that highly involved problem solvers explored and organized sound for its musical expressiveness, while uninvolved problem solvers rarely based their decisions on musical concerns. Concludes with implications for music teaching. (Author/LS)
