Abstract:
Breinfunksionerings- en -ontwikkelingsliteratuur identifiseer
toepasbare aspekte vir die verbetering van
aanvangsonderrig vir pianiste:
• Benutting van die jong brein se vermoë tot plastiese
verandering na stimulasie
• ‘n Geleentheidsvensterperiode vir optimale prestasie
• Belangrikheid van vroeë aanvang van klavieronderrig
• Ontwikkeling van absolute toonhoogtesin in reaksie op
vroeë klavieronderrig
• Ontwikkeling van optimale tegniese vaardighede in
reaksie op vroeë musiekonderrig
• Belangrikheid van genoegsame herhaling vir
vaslegging van tegniese vaardigheid en informasie in
die langtermyngeheuestore van die brein
• Groepsmusiekonderrig vir jong leerders
• Interaksie tussen omgewingsfaktore en die individu se
genetiese potensiaal vir optimale musikale prestasie
• Rol en invloed van emosie, chemiese oordragstowwe en
hormone op musikale prestasie
• Dissipline en verhouding tussen onderwyser en leerder.
ENGLISH: Literature on brain functioning and development reveals
applicable aspects for improving beginner piano teaching:
• Using the young brain’s plasticity in reaction to stimuli
• A window of opportunity for optimal achievement
• Importance of early piano tuition
• Development of absolute pitch with early piano tuition
• Development of optimal technique as a result of early
music tuition
• Importance of sufficient repetition for technical skill
and fixing information in long- term memory
• Group music tuition for young learners
• Interaction between the environment and individuals’
genetic potential for optimal musical achievement
• Role and influence of emotion, secreted chemicals and
hormones on musical achievement
• Discipline and the relationship between teacher and
pupil.
