Abstract

The digitalisation of the music classroom has accelerated the development of learning tools that correspond to the mindset and lifestyle of digital generation. Current pedagogical approaches emphasize a diverse and multifunctional use of technology to study music theory, learn to play instruments, and create music on and offline. Solfeg.io music education app is designed according to principles of smart pedagogy that include criteria for a meaningful use of technology in the study process. The app has been developed to meet didactic, cognitive, socioemotional, and technical requirements that create a customizable, user-oriented experience in a pedagogically justified study environment. The digital learning strategy “Start playing the guitar!” (DLS) is designed for students without prior knowledge of playing the guitar. The purpose of the paper is to study applicability of DLS in learning the basics of playing the guitar. The paper contains an analysis of theoretical literature on a technology-enhanced pedagogical process, including the ideas of smart pedagogy and the basic didactic principles for developing digital education tools. The empirical study on the use of DLS includes pedagogical observation, respondent surveys, and analysis and interpretation of the obtained qualitative data.
