The use of blended learning in the teaching of piano playing and singing in education faculties

One of the core performing courses in institutions for pre-school teacher training is simultaneous singing and piano playing. To ensure sufficient training hours, it is important to improve teaching methods. As a way to improve the teaching of simultaneous signing and piano playing in a large class, we have incorporated blended learning, in which students are required (1) to submit videos of their performance, and (2) to view and study e-learning materials. We have analyzed how each of these requirements improved students !Gperformance skills in singing and piano playing, and found that they substantially reduce the time required for individual lessons.
