기억술을 활용한 교양 음악 수업 방안

Abstract

Objectives The purposes of this study is to explore how mnemonic methods can be applied to liberal arts music classes by exploring the various mnemonic methods and their applicability. Methods To this end, based on past studies on mnemonics, possible ways to apply such methods to composition activities in introductory music classes were explored by identifying different categories and methods that could be adapted. Results Composition activities using mnemonics were into two steps: preparing the score (remembering the order of preparing the score, writing clefs, writing key signatures, and writing time signatures) and the basic composition process (memorizing composition rules based on the 3 major chords, memorizing notes and beats, memorizing note names, memorizing tempo, and memorizing ellipsis). To this end, a total of eight mnemonic methods (story method, acrostics, categorical clustering, key word method, gesture, acronyms, rhyme, and peg word method) were used. Conclusions This study can be meaningful in that by making it easy to memorize the contents that are difficult to remember in the basic music learning process through the use of mnemonics, It can be additionally meaningful in that it can increase the use of various mnemonic methods to help in sheet music reading skills which can allow composition activities.
