Abstract
This study aims to evaluate the potential and requirements for developing an AI-powered mobile learning application based on a constructivist approach to enhance sight-reading skills for percussion instruments among Thai youth. The research employs a mixed-methods approach, involving a sample of 120 Thai youth aged 13–18 years old who have experience in playing percussion instruments. Data collection includes an online survey on learning needs, preferences, and perceived challenges in sight-reading, as well as semi-structured interviews with 15 music teachers and 5 experts in music education and educational technology. The results indicate that 78% of the youth participants express a strong interest in using a mobile learning application to improve their sight-reading skills, with 85% preferring gamified learning features. However, 65% of the participants report challenges in accessing quality learning resources and receiving personalized feedback. The interviews reveal that 90% of the music teachers recognize the potential of AI-powered mobile learning in providing adaptive learning experiences and real-time feedback, while 80% of the experts emphasize the importance of aligning the application design with constructivist principles. The findings highlight the key requirements for the mobile learning application, including interactive notation display, real-time performance evaluation, adaptive difficulty adjustment, and gamification elements. These insights will guide the development of an AI-powered mobile learning application that effectively addresses the learning needs and preferences of Thai youth in enhancing their sight-reading skills for percussion instruments.
