Contextualized Assessment And Promotion Of Children's Musical Intelligence

This research is based on the multiple intelligence theory proposed by Gardner,focusing on the musical intelligence among the eight multiple intelligences.The first study referred to the way of situational assessment in Gardner's colorful spectrum,and constructed a situational assessment scheme for children's music intelligence based on music theory.The second study constructed a situational promotion scheme for children's music intelligence based on the sub-intelligence of music intelligence.In the first study,the assessment scheme divided the music intelligence into two parts:rhythm and pitch.The rhythm was divided into four parts: duration,speed,strength and length.117 children aged 4-6 were selected to test the quality of assessment scheme.The reliability and validity of the assessment scheme were tested.The results showed that the homogeneity reliability of the assessment scheme was 0.841,and the scorer's consistency reliability was0.820.The confirmatory factor analysis results showed that the assessment scheme had a good fitting.The calibration validity was 0.479.Based on the developmental analysis of the data from Study 1,the results indicate that the music intelligence of children aged 4-6 shows a developing trend,which is mainly manifested in that 5-year-old children have a significant improvement compared with 4-year-old children,and there is no gender difference in music intelligence.The above results show that the reliability and validity of the situational assessment scheme for children's music intelligence is good.The second study constructed a situational promotion scheme for children's music intelligence,using the non-processing pretest-posttest design in control group.41 children aged5-6 were selected and divided into experimental class and control class according to the natural class.The evaluation tool selected the evaluation scheme constructed by Study 1.The research aimed to promote the sub-intelligence of music intelligence,and a total of 17 promotion courses were conducted for two months.The results showed that music intelligence in experimental class was significantly higher than the control class,which indicates that the promotion scheme has a certain effect on children's music intelligence improvement.According to the conclusions of this research,situational assessment and promotion scheme are meaningful for actual teaching.Teachers assess children's musical abilities through situational assessment scheme,and use various situational teaching methods to create appropriate teaching contexts.The situation is used to inspire children,and ultimately achieve the purpose of improving children's musical intelligence.
