Abstract :
This paper describes the Symphony-Q support system for learning music. This system integrates a sensing board and a computer, and is used for collaborative learning in a face-to-face setting. One of the aims of Symphony-Q is to enhance music experiences: children who do not have music skills can easily participate in music learning, enjoy making sounds, and play rhythmically to music in collaboration with others. The paper discusses comments and feedback from school children and their teachers, which were collected during experiments with Symphony-Q carried out in a Japanese public elementary school.
