Perspective on Blended Learning for Instrumental Music Learning
Main Article Content
Abstract
Today’s world education has changed into e-learning, regardless of education level, from primary, secondary, and tertiary institutional. Alongside the Covid-19 pandemic, teachers worldwide need to recreate, rethink, and reinforce teaching and learn with various strategies. However, this is not an easy task in music instrumental lesson teachers because learning instrumental have been conducted face to face in nature. Other issues arise with the transition learning instrument to an online lesson. Teaching online is insufficient to tackle this issue due to students’ low internet connection. Not all students can afford their musical instruments, such as the accordion. With movement control orders still enacted, students could not enter the campus. Hence, hindering them from borrowing musical instruments, especially students who are short of their musical instruments. This urges instrumental music educators to transform teaching materials into digitalisation mediums and blend them with online teaching and learning. This study conducted an extensive document analysis to investigate past literature reviews on how instrumental music lessons use blended learning strategies.
