Content analysis of music education studies related to augmented reality technology

Abstract

This study aims to examine the studies scanned in Web of Science and Scopus databases between 2006-2020 on the use of augmented reality applications in music education in terms of their descriptive features, methodological features, and outcomes, and to reveal the trends in this field. The criterion sample approach was utilized in this qualitative study, and 35 selected studies were reviewed using the publication classification form and analyzed using the content analysis method. The descriptive and methodological feature data were translated into frequency values using the SPSS 22 program and then interpreted using tables and charts for easy comprehension. Furthermore, the advantages and limitations of AR applications utilized in music education, which were the research's outputs, were coded, organized into relevant categories, and interpreted. The results showed that most studies focused on piano and guitar education for beginners; no studies were undertaken on wind instruments or voice training. Studies, particularly in recent years, have focused on user experience research. Furthermore, it was found that AR applications have the advantages of increasing and facilitating student learning performance, making learning exciting and fun, and providing motivation. Some challenges during use, owing to technical issues and limited field content in the programs, resulted in limited improvements in music education.
