Analysis of the use of ICT through Music Interactive Games as Educational Strategy

AR Graphic Representation of Musical Notes for Self-Learning on Guitar

“…The least gendered instruments have been found to be African drums, cornet, French horn, saxophone, and tenor horn [17].Although there are exceptions, there has been no evidence of significant differences between men and women in the process of learning musical subjects. The gendered pattern of learning is relatively consistent across education levels [17].As it has been demonstrated that technology can help during basic training [18,19], certain ICT-based methods have been tested on the guitar, some of which have been aimed at facilitating learning, while others have aimed to make learning more attractive and effective. It is possible to indicate correct finger positioning using a mobile projector that projects different colored lights mounted on the headstock of the guitar.…”

Emotional Training and Modification of Disruptive Behaviors through Computer-Game-Based Music Therapy in Secondary Education

“…Schools cannot remain outside the current culture, which is impacted by music and audiovisual messages, and governed and motivated by computer environments [60]. Therefore, ICTs are revealed as ideal for transforming traditional learning environments into interactive ones, where knowledge can be built through active and collaborative learning techniques, contributing to the adaptation and renewal of teaching to new social demands, by providing innovation and creativity [61].…”

“…Its inclusion was chosen after the analysis of other previous experiences, in which the inclusion of an educational game modifies the behavior (from more inappropriate behaviors to more adaptive ones [61,68]) and is the most effective way to promote student learning [69,70].…”

“…This tool, "Musichao, The Musical Educational Game", was the original idea, which was also elaborated and designed by one of the authors well before the study, to encourage the achievement of the musical competences of the third level of secondary high school (3rd ESO); it more importantly received the second prize for educational innovation in public administration. Furthermore, due to the excellent results that were achieved and publication of these results [61], a version for the fourth level of secondary high school (4th ESO) was been completed. In this case, and taking into account the characteristics of the students that were going to be working with in this project, an adaptation of it was implemented.…”
