| Abstract | The problem of this study was to determine the effectiveness of instant replay television as a method for teaching certain physical aspects of choral conducting to undergraduate college or university students majoring in music education. The sub-problem was to determine the effectiveness of instant replay television as a method for teaching each of the nine specific techniques of conducting. Those basic techniques were preparatory beat, basic beat movement, dynamic indication, cueing, independence of hands, cut-offs, use of face and eyes, posture, and attention to detail. The nature of the problem, to determine the value of a new teaching aid, indicated an experimental approach: the comparing of matched groups. One group would be designated as experimental and would be instructed using television. The second group would be designated as control and would receive conventional instruction. |
