Percepciones de estudiantes de trece años sobre el uso de aplicaciones móviles en su aprendizaje musical: Diseño y aplicación de estrategias mediadas en la academia La Clave

Abstract

Abstract: The use of technological resources in music education has created opportunities to strengthen the teaching and learning processes of instruments. In this context, this research aims to analyze the perceptions of 13-year-old guitar students at the La Clave Academy regarding the use of mobile digital applications in their learning for the development of musical skills. The study was conducted under a qualitative, descriptive-exploratory approach, with a population of 30 guitar students. For data collection, direct observation using observation sheets and semi-structured interviews were applied. The results showed that, after the implementation of pedagogical strategies mediated by mobile applications, improvements were observed in skills such as fingering, rhythmic control, tuning, motor coordination, and autonomy in practice. Likewise, students expressed positive perceptions, highlighting their contribution to motivation, understanding of musical content, and autonomous practice. It is concluded that mobile applications constitute a relevant pedagogical resource when they are integrated through appropriate teacher mediation.
