A Theoretical Framework for Ubiquitous Learning in Creative Music Arrangement: Enhancing Skills Development for Thai Youth

Abstract

The rapid digitalization of music education presents challenges in developing creative music arrangement skills among Thai youth. This study investigates the application of ubiquitous learning principles to enhance music education in the Thai context. The research objectives were to: 1) analyze key concepts and components of ubiquitous learning applicable to developing creative music arrangement skills, 2) examine the relationship between ubiquitous learning principles and the process of developing these skills, and 3) present a theoretical framework for designing ubiquitous learning innovations for Thai youth. Through comprehensive literature review and conceptual analysis, this theoretical study focused on ubiquitous learning, music education, and the Thai cultural context. The study identified five crucial components of ubiquitous learning (permanency, accessibility, immediacy, interactivity, and context-awareness) and their applications in developing creative music arrangement skills. It revealed significant relationships between these principles and four key aspects of creative music arrangement: sound crafting, musical architecture, rhythmic patterning, and emotional articulation. The research culminated in a novel theoretical framework comprising four main components: adaptive learning environment, collaborative music creation, continuous skill development, and cultural integration. This framework provides a foundation for designing culturally relevant, technologically advanced music education tools, potentially influencing future research, educational practices, and policymaking in music education.
