CREATION OF A BASIC WESTERN MUSIC THEORY INSTRUCTIONAL PACKAGE USING THE CIPPA MODEL FOR MATHAYOM 1 STUDENTS AT CHANTHABURI COLLEGE OF DRAMATIC ARTS

Abstract

The Objectives of this Research were to create a Basic Western Music Theory Instructional Package Using the CIPPA Model for Mathayom 1 Students at Chanthaburi College of Dramatic Arts. To compare the students’ learning achievement before and after using the instructional package on Basic Western Music Theory based on the (CIPPA Model). To investigate students’ satisfaction toward the use of the instructional package. This research employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pretest–posttest design. The research instruments included the instructional package on basic Western music theory and lesson plans used for instructional implementation. The data collection instruments consisted of a learning achievement test and a student satisfaction questionnaire. The sample group comprised 11 Grade 7 students at Chanthaburi College of Dramatic Arts. The statistical methods used for data analysis were mean, standard deviation, and the Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test. The results revealed that the instructional package based on the CIPPA model consisted of four learning units. The overall effectiveness of the instructional package was rated at the highest level ( = 4.93, S.D. = 0.08). After receiving instruction through the developed package, students demonstrated improved abilities in reading, writing, and explaining Western music symbols and notations accurately and effectively. Furthermore, the posttest learning achievement scores were significantly higher than the pretest scores at the .05 level of statistical significance. In addition, students’ satisfaction toward the use of the instructional package was found to be at the highest level ( = 4.50, S.D. = 0.17)
