Effectiveness Study of Applying Earmaster for Ear Training in Chinese University Students

An Lingjie — 2025-03-01

Background and Aims: Although the use of technology integration in music education in China has gradually increased, there is still a lack of empirical evidence on the use of educational technology, particularly digital tools, in auditory training. Traditional auditory training methods, such as manual practice guided by a piano or teachers, had some educational value; however, in large-scale classroom settings, they were frequently hampered by individual differences, time constraints, and insufficient teaching resources, making it difficult to meet students' individualized learning needs, particularly in key areas such as pitch recognition, rhythm perception, and timbre discrimination. As a result, understanding how to use modern educational technology to improve the effectiveness of auditory training and close this gap was critical for practical purposes. Against this backdrop, this study innovatively integrated Earmaster, a digital tool specifically designed for music education, into auditory training courses at Chinese universities, to investigate its effectiveness in improving students' auditory skills. By providing personalized practice plans and instant feedback, Earmaster effectively addressed issues in traditional teaching methods caused by resource constraints or individual differences. This study used constructivist learning theory to discuss how to use Earmaster to help students improve their pitch recognition, rhythm perception, and timbre discrimination skills. This not only improved empirical research on technology in music education but also provided theoretical foundations and practical references for future educational technology applications.

Materials and Methods: This study adopts a quasi-experimental approach. The researchers selected a total of 67 first-year music students from a university in Fujian. After classifying the students according to the school's class capacity, they were divided into Music Class 1 (34 students) and Music Class 2 (33 students). Class 1 served as the control group, while Class 2 was the experimental group. The entire experiment lasted 10 weeks, with two classes per week, each lasting 90 minutes. In the first week, students were introduced to the experiment, the teaching methods, and the content. All 67 students took a pre-test to assess their actual musical abilities. Starting from the second week, the two groups underwent 8 weeks of training with the same teaching content. Music Class 1 followed traditional teaching methods, while Music Class 2 received instruction using the Earmaster software. Classroom exercises and homework were also conducted using Earmaster. In the tenth week, a post-test was conducted. The researchers compiled and analyzed the process data and post-test results, comparing the changes between the pre-test and post-test.

Results: This study integrated the digital tool Earmaster into auditory training courses at Chinese universities and demonstrated its efficacy in improving students' auditory skills. The findings revealed that after a structured intervention with Earmaster, students' performance in pitch recognition, rhythm perception, and timbre discrimination improved significantly. Earmaster addressed the issues caused by resource limitations and individual differences in large-scale classroom settings more effectively than traditional auditory training methods, using personalized exercises and instant feedback. This study not only addressed an empirical gap in the use of educational technology in auditory training, but it also provided theoretical foundations and practical references for the future use of digital tools in music education.

Conclusion: This study found that the digital tool Earmaster significantly improved students' auditory skills compared to traditional methods. It provided both empirical evidence and practical insights into the future use of digital tools in music education.

Private universities in China generally face a shortage of counselors, making them heavily reliant on the management assistance of student cadres. However, students in private universities differ significantly from those in public universities in terms of learning ability and family background, making it especially important to enhance the competencies of student cadres. A review of existing research reveals a significant gap in studies focused on the competencies of student cadres in private universities. This study aims to construct a competency model for student cadres in private universities, providing theoretical and practical guidance for their selection, training, and development.

Materials and Methods: The study employs methods such as literature analysis, behavioral event interviews, Delphi expert consultation, and questionnaire surveys. Through literature and comparative analysis, the research examines competency theory and the research findings on student cadre competencies. Thirty student cadres were interviewed using the behavioral event interview method, and consultations were conducted with 12 experts in private education student affairs to identify and categorize competency elements and dimensions. The constructed model was then validated through a survey of 302 questionnaires.

Results: Four main dimensions were identified: political integrity, working attitude, working ability, and personality trait, with a total of 17 specific elements. A layered and dynamic "compass-shaped" competency model was constructed, illustrating the composition of student cadre competencies.

Conclusion: From a theoretical perspective, this model not only provides new insights into the theory of student cadre competencies but also integrates the study of student cadre competencies with ideological and political education in higher education institutions, fostering theoretical innovation and development in both areas. From a practical standpoint, the model offers a scientific basis for the selection, training, and evaluation of student cadres, contributing to the enhancement of their overall quality and working ability.

Alvin Gueco Datugan — 2025-03-02

Background and Aim: Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) has emerged as one of the outstanding approaches in language education, emphasizing interaction and practical communication. To perform well, one must be actively involved, regularly given feedback, and well-informed. In some cases, language learning has to be experienced authentically to be able to familiarize and fully perform it. This study explores the beliefs and attitudes of first-year EFL students of Nakhon Phanom University, Thailand towards the CLT approach, providing insights into its effectiveness and acceptance among new learners. Understanding these perceptions is critical for enhancing language instruction and fostering a more engaging learning environment. The purpose of this study was to investigate the perceptions and attitudes of EFL learners and to find out if there is a significant relationship between the learners' beliefs and the attitude of the EFL learners towards the CLT approach.

Materials and Methods: This study was conducted using a descriptive correlative research design. The data collection took place at Nakhon University, Thailand. The respondents of this study were first-year education students from the English Department. A survey questionnaire through Google Forms was used to gather the data. For data analysis, mean, frequency distribution, and Pearson Correlation Coefficient (r) were employed.

Results: Findings indicated that EFL learners recognized the application of the CLT approach in the class which is similar to their attitude towards the CLT approach that garnered a moderate response of “agree”. The moderate results imply that there is still room for improvement. The study found a positive correlation that proved the significant relationship between the beliefs and attitudes of the EFL learners towards the CLT approach at a 0.5 significance level. The result of the study aligned with the study of Mehta, N.K. (2015) stating that integrating the CLT approach in language teaching encourages language learners to learn better. In addition, the CLT approach plays an integral part in the language learning process. Furthermore, beliefs and attitudes are the main indicators in language learning; however, due to limited variables, future researchers can go further on other factors relating to the CLT approach.

Conclusion: Therefore, it is concluded that to make CLT even more effective, EFL teachers should integrate the activities in the classroom with real-life communication, making learning more engaging and enjoyable for students.

Fan Mo — 2025-03-09

Background and Aim: Despite the success of blended learning, student satisfaction, and perceived learning performance remain key indicators of its effectiveness. While existing studies have explored these factors, most treat technology platforms generically, with limited focus on specific platforms. Therefore, this study investigates the factors influencing satisfaction (SAT) and perceived learning performance (PLP) in blended learning, specifically using the Chaoxing Learning Platform.

Materials and Methods: A quantitative research design was employed using a structured questionnaire, grounded in blended learning theories and the Technology Acceptance Model. The survey targeted students at the School of Intelligent Manufacturing, Zhanjiang University of Science and Technology. Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) were used to analyze the data from 493 valid responses.

Results: The analysis revealed significant positive relationships between the factors and satisfaction. Perceived Ease of Use (PEU), Perceived Usefulness (PU), Social Presence (SP), Teaching Presence (TP), and Cognitive Presence (CP) all contributed to higher satisfaction levels. Additionally, satisfaction was found to be a strong predictor of perceived learning performance, indicating that satisfied students believed they had performed better academically.

Conclusion: This study confirmed five key factors influencing student satisfaction in blended learning using the Chaoxing Learning Platform. It demonstrated a strong positive relationship between satisfaction and perceived learning performance, highlighting the central role of satisfaction in determining educational outcomes in blended learning environments.

Strategic Management Techniques to Enhance the Sustainable Value-added Local Culture—Local to Global

Watcharaporn Jantanukul — 2025-04-14

Background and Aims: Local cultures are confronted with both opportunities and risks in the context of growing globalization. Many of them are still undeveloped or prone to standardization, despite their significant potential for economic value, identity, and creativity. In order for local cultures to thrive both domestically and globally, this research aims to explore strategic management techniques that can promote their ongoing value-added development. Compiling theories, models, and best practices that connect local cultural identity and global competitiveness is the aim of this project.

Methodology: This study draws on a range of interdisciplinary sources in the domains of sustainability, cultural studies, strategic management, and the creative economy using a methodical approach to literature review. Comparisons are made between frameworks like the SWOT/TOWS, the Balanced Scorecard (BSC), stakeholder engagement models, and cultural branding strategies. International case studies are also analyzed to identify success factors and practical relevance.

Results: The study concludes that global branding, creative cultural expression, stakeholder interaction, and strategic planning are necessary for improving local cultures. Local culture has been successfully promoted globally while retaining its authenticity through the use of tactics including cultural export models, strategic alliances, and combining local knowledge with modern technologies. Successful examples from Europe, Asia, and Africa demonstrate that, with proper handling, cultural identity may have long-term positive diplomatic and economic effects.

Conclusion: Strategic management techniques can help local communities preserve, enhance, and promote their cultural heritage around the world. The transition from "local to global" requires a well-rounded approach that respects cultural heritage while embracing innovation and market-driven opportunities. This assessment highlights the need for inclusive policies, capacity building, and strategic visioning to ensure that cultural development promotes long-term sustainability and cultural variety in the global environment.
