ABSTRACT: The purpose of this quantitative research was to determine whether Mozart's "Sonata for Two Pianos in D Major K.448" (hereafter referred to as "Sonata K.448") had a significant impact on student math achievement scores by comparing the results of the total population of 24 control students who had no music being played in the background and the total population of 38 students who had music played in the background. The findings of the study showed that listening to Mozart was not related to math lab performance, standardized test score performance, or the amount of daily misconduct. In addition, the 6 math lab outcome measures were not related to gains in standardized test score performance. The small sample size of 62 could have led to problems with design, resulting in no effect results.

Research indicates students who engage in music exhibit improved cognitive development. The quantitative study was conducted in a large suburban school district in Southeast Georgia. This study investigated the impact of music on student achievement when music is incorporated with the core academic subject of mathematics at the elementary level. This goal was accomplished by using a pretest-posttest control group design with a population of 51 third grade students and 51 fifth grade students through a series of analysis of covariance tests (ANCOVA). The t-test results showed statistically significant difference when comparing the experimental and control groups: t (26) = 6.11, p [greater than].000, t (23) = 3.73, p [greater than].001, t (26) = 6.01,p [greater than].000, t ((23) = 7.30,p [greater than].000. Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) was used with the data to answer Research Question 2. Both groups showed significant difference. White students in both the control and experimental group outperformed black students in the experimental and control groups, F (7, 94) = 5.47, p [greater than].000. In answer to Research Question 3, when comparing the high socioeconomic group to the low socioeconomic group we find that many of the low socioeconomic groups scored higher than the high socioeconomic status groups F(7,94) = 6.03, p [greater than] .000 . It is recommended that future studies incorporate a power analysis to ensure sufficient sample size. The findings benefit teachers and students by presenting data supporting how the use of baroque and classical music playing along with music integration into the math curriculum is an important role in increasing student achievement in mathematics.

The demand for math and science skills in our technology-driven world is at a premium, and yet U.S. students continue to lag behind many other industrialized countries in these areas. This book, based on studies conducted on 8000 elementary school-aged children, proposes that not only is there a relationship between music and math comprehension, but that music can be utilized to heighten higher brain function and improve math skills. The enclosed CD-Rom includes (1) a recording of Allegro con spirito from Sonata for Two Pianos in D Major (K. 448), by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, performed by Murray Perahia and Radu Lupu, courtesy of Sony ClassicalTM, and (2) a descriptive interactive version of S.T.A.R.TM (Spatial-Temporal Animation Reasoning) software program. While this book's discussion of the breakthroughs in understanding of spatial-temporal reasoning abilities will be of particular interest to neuroscientists and cognitive researchers, the book is also accessible to parents and educators. Presents the theory that music exercises higher brain function and can enhance math comprehension Details how music training coupled with special-temporal reasoning (thinking in pictures) can dramatically impact a child's ability to understand and master math Includes an interactive CD-ROM with math games

The new edition of 'The Child as Musician' celebrates the richness and diversity of the many different ways in which children can engage in and interact with music. It presents theory - both cutting edge and classic - in an accessible way for readers by surveying research concerned with the development and acquisition of musical skills.

The idea of one's memory "filling up" is a humorous misconception of how memory in general is thought to work; it actually has no capacity limit. However, the idea of a "full brain" makes more sense with reference to working memory, which is the limited amount of information a person can hold temporarily in an especially accessible form for use in the completion of almost any challenging cognitive task. This groundbreaking book explains the evidence supporting Cowan's theoretical proposal about working memory capacity, and compares it to competing perspectives. Cognitive psychologists profoundly disagree on how working memory is limited: whether by the number of units that can be retained (and, if so, what kind of units and how many), the types of interfering material, the time that has elapsed, some combination of these mechanisms, or none of them. The book assesses these hypotheses and examines explanations of why capacity limits occur, including vivid biological, cognitive, and evolutionary accounts. The book concludes with a discussion of the practical importance of capacity limits in daily life. This 10th anniversary Classic Edition will continue to be accessible to a wide range of readers and serve as an invaluable reference for all memory researchers.

Music has a universal and timeless potential to influence how we feel, yet, only recently, have researchers begun to explore and understand the positive effects that music can have on our wellbeing.This book brings together research from a number of disciplines to explore the relationship between music, health and wellbeing.

Many things people commonly believe to be true about education are not supported by scientific evidence. Urban Myths about Learning and Education examines commonly held incorrect beliefs and then provides the truth of what research has shown. Each chapter examines a different myth, with sections on learning, the brain, technology, and educational policy. A final section discusses why these myths are so persistent. Written in an engaging style, the book separates fact from fiction regarding learning and education. Recognize any of these myths? - People have different styles of learning - Boys are naturally better at mathematics than girls - We only use 10% of our brains - The left half of the brain is analytical, the right half is creative - Men have a different kind of brain from women - We can learn while we are asleep - Babies become smarter if they listen to classical music These myths and more are systematically debunked, with useful correct information about the topic in question. - Debunks common myths about learning and education - Provides empirical research on the facts relating to the myths - Utilizes light-hearted, approachable language for easy reading
