Assalamualaikum and a very good evening to our beloved lecturer and my fellow friends. Today, my friend and I would like to expose all of us here with how music education benefits us.
What is music education? Music education is a field of study associated with teaching and learning music. It touches on all learning domains, including the psychomotor domain (the development of skills), the cognitive domain (the acquisition of knowledge), and in particular and significant ways, the affective domain (the learner 's willingness to receive, internalize, and share what is learned), including music appreciation and sensitivity. Numerous studies have shown that musical training improves verbal memory. Researchers in one study administered memory tests to 90 boys between the ages of 6 and 15. Half belonged to their school s strings program for one to five years, while the other half had no musical training. The musically trained students had better verbal memory. In addition, many researchers believe the ability to perceive and enjoy music is an inborn human trait. This biological aspect is supported by the discovery that the brain has specialized areas that respond only to music and that these areas provoke emotional responses. Studies have shown that listening to certain music stimulates the parts of the brain responsible for memory recall and visual imagery. Researchers have also found that listening to background music enhances the efficiency of those working with their hands. This explains why background music in the classroom helps many students stay focused while completing specific learning tasks. Learning to play a musical instrument challenges the brain in new ways. Of course, music can be distracting if it is too loud or too jarring, or if it competes for our attention with what we are trying to do. But for the most part, we have found that exposure to many kinds of music has beneficial effects.
