COMPARISON OF PIANO STUDENTS' ACHIEVEMENT LEVELS IN NORMAL AND EPIDEMIC PERIOD

Abstract

In this study, it was examined whether the grades of students who took piano lessons in the fall and spring semesters of the 2019-2020 academic years differ according to the changing periodic practice style. For the analysis, the scores of the students who took the piano lesson in both semesters and had success grades were obtained. The scores obtained are arranged for all classes in the form of midterm, final and term average according to the fall and spring terms. The arrangement was analysed statistically and comparisons were made. The t test for term comparisons and the Pearson correlation coefficients for the relationship between the scores were examined. As a result of the examination, it was understood that the students' spring term piano lesson success scores increased due to the extra conditions of the epidemic period, but a significant but not large increase occurred.
