Abstract
This study investigates the application of constructivist theory in piano teaching at two music schools in China. The results reveal widespread utilization of constructivist teaching methods, such as activating prior knowledge, creating cognitive dissonance, and providing feedback. Piano teachers encountered challenges related to prior knowledge, dependency on rote learning, and inconsistent student engagement. Recommendations include encouraging students' independent exploration, promoting collaborative learning, employing multimodal strategies, and offering positive feedback. The application of constructivist theory in music education is expected to significantly transform the approach to nurturing the next generation of musical prodigies.
