Design And Practice Of Blended Learning Of Digital Music Creation In Junior Middle School

The requirements about music creation for students in the fourth learning stage ha s been put forward by The Art Curriculum Standard in Compulsory Education(2022edition).However,there are some problems in music creation activities,such as students’ weak foundation,teachers’ lack of understanding of students’ learning situation and unsupportive class schedule,which lead to the urgent need to improve music creation activities in middle school.These problems can be solved through some characteristics of blended learning--students can control the learning progress,place and duration of online learning,which allow students to have enough time to learn the basic knowledge and skills and teachers to allocate more time to solve the difficulties.The creation of situations and problem-solving learning tasks based on students’ learning situation will be attached great importance by the design of curriculum,which can stimulate the interest of junior high school students with special psychological state in learning.Blended learning is not a simple mixture of online learning and traditional faceto-face teaching.It is necessary to fully understand the theoretical basis of blended learning and take it as a learning strategy to break the difficulties of traditional teaching mode.Due to the impact of COVID-19 in the spring of 2020,famous teachers in the whole city have been gathered to record videos for “Air Studio Classroom”,which provides high-quality online resources for blended learning.A unit of digital music creation in junior middle school with the method of blended learning will be designed by this study.And the practical results of controlled experiments were used to prove the effectiveness.Firstly,the paper will study the relevant literature by expounding the definition,characteristics,the mode of blended learning and the necessity of music teaching.A theoretical framework will be established to support the blended learning of digital music creation in junior middle school based on the First Principle of Instruction,the Constructivism theory,the Mastery Learning Theory and the Independent learning theory.Secondly,the paper will analyze the feasibility and necessity of applying blended learning to music teaching in junior middle school,and construct a mode to carry out the blended learning of digital music creation in junior middle school by the timeline as before,during and after the class.Thirdly,it will present the activity design of digital music creation in junior middle school with the mode of blended learning.Independent online learning part,Curriculum introduction,group cooperation,difficulties breakthrough and communication will be designed from the three perspectives of activity analysis,implementation steps and design examples.Fourthly,it will be put into practice.The effectiveness of the controlled group will be analyzed with the test scores of basic skills and comprehensive creation ability.At the same time,individual student will be interviewed and analyzed.The experimental results show that blended learning can significantly improve the comprehensive creative ability of junior middle school music creation.Finally,the whole paper will be reflected and summarized to look forward to the next stage of work.
