Music & Education

 

Students and adults who undergo musical training in their education have more enhanced science skills and improved cognition, so according to Journal Aesthetic Education are better equipped to learn mathematic and solve complex problems. A musical trained brain in children shows neural enhancement keeps evolving and unfolding over the time of their biological growth hence becoming more rhythmic allowing a child to pick up patterns and visual elements together. A study which was undertook by the university of Kansas and published in 2007 has shown that students enrolling primary schools with strong and advanced musical programs scored 22 percent higher in English and 20 percent higher on standardized tests compared with weaker musical educational programs. My school music coordinator has introduced a new musical program a diversion from traditional old methods which involves only preforming memorized songs. Now a days I teach my students to listen to the musical beats and  turn it to rhythmic patterns by using body percussions or percussions instruments while singing.

Language & Music

 

Music and language are quite deeply correlated, and from first day of a child conception throughout adolescence and later adulthood, music plays an important role in a person’s linguistic capability. The frontal lob of the brain that deals with   language comprehension and speech is stimulated by musical training to a certain extant so children who have better access to musical learning will have good tonic alignment within their speech segments and according to New York academic of sciences musical learning can greatly improve children fine motor tasks plus memory skills. In the school where I teach students who play musical instrument are mostly bilingual and apt to learn more languages because they are more able to adsorb different sounds coming from new languages .                     Four year old boy plays piano
