AUKŠTESNIŲJŲ KLASIŲ MOKINIŲ MUZIKINIO KŪRYBIŠKUMO UGDYMAS NAUDOJANT MUZIKINES KOMPIUTERINES TECHNOLOGIJAS (MKT) MUZIKOS PAMOKOJE
DEVELOPMENT OF MUSICAL CREATIVITY OF HIGHER CLASS PUPILS USING MUSICAL COMPUTER TECHNOLOGIES (MCT)

Summary/Abstract: Purpose – to find out possibilities of development of musical creativity by using MCT in the music education of senior pupils. Design/methodology/approach – literature review, qualitative survey methodology (interview with music teachers). Findings – implementation of MCT, like any other innovation (as well as ICT) in different spheres of education, including pre-school education, bring forth a certain positive effect. The results of the interview showed that in the praxis of music education, MCT is used for different development purposes (to make a lesson original, help pupils memorize music, expand their imagination not only by listening, but also by watching and evaluating performance of music, listen to music recordings, understand music and evaluate its quality, etc.). But for the development of musical creativity, MCT has been used very poorly. Research limitation/implications – musical creativity’s concept has not been uniquely defined so far. The aim of scientific literature review is to show that musical creativity is not meant to be separated from general creativity. Moreover, this is compounded by the search of the possibilities to the development of musical creativity. Analysis of scientific literature shows that the use of MCT can make an influence on musical creativity. However, empirical researches on this subject are still missing.
