The Effect of Micro-Learning Environment in Developing the Rules of Theoretical Music and Some Skills of solfège and Academic Resilience Among Students of the Faculty of Specific Education

The current research aimed to investigate certain solfège skills, principles of music theory, and academic resilience among music education students at the Faculty of Specific Education through the development of a micro-learning environment created using the Microsoft Teams platform. The research employed both descriptive and experimental methodologies, utilizing a quasi-experimental design with two groups. The sample consisted of 70 first-year students from the Department of Music Education at Minia University's Faculty of Education during the 2023/2024 academic year. The participants were divided into two groups: the experimental group (35 students) who studied through the Microsoft Teams micro-learning environment, and the control group (35 students) who received traditional instruction. The research instruments included an achievement test for some solfège skills and music theory principles, a performance evaluation rubric for solfège and music theory skills, and an academic resilience scale. The results showed a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test scores of the two research groups on the cognitive test, indicating an improvement in their knowledge after the implementation of the research experiment. Additionally, there was a significant difference between the two groups on the cognitive test, the evaluation rubric, and the academic resilience scale, with the experimental group demonstrating better performance. The study recommended the necessity of utilizing micro-learning environments in the training of various musical skills.
