Popular games like 'Rock Band' and 'Karaoke Revolutions' rate players' singing based on the correctness of the frequency of their sung response. Players are motivated to improve their scores each time they play. In this experiment, I tested undergraduate nonmusicians' (N = 33) pitch-matching ability before and after playing one of these games for 10 minutes. Acoustical analysis… Show more

“…Instrumental music teachers working with children between 6 and 12 years old could also benefit from the use of ict when teaching aural skills, since technology can support singing achievement (Paney 2015;Paney and Kay 2015;Welch et al 2005) and perception skills (Chen 2015;Paule-Ruiz et al 2016). Nevertheless, although many adults own data processing devices (Anderson 2015;cefrio 2015), few music teachers use them in studios (Dubé, Héroux and Robidas 2016a ;Upitis et al 2016).…”
