Learning Music History With the Theory of 5 Knowledge Spirals
Keywords:
Learning Management, Music History, 5 Knowledge SpiralsAbstract
This article presents the application of the 5 Spiral Knowledge Theory by Associate Professor Dr.Narongchai Pidokrajt. The article aims to explain this theory and its applications in educational contexts, enabling learners to understand music content both in depth and systematically. The content is divided into two parts: learning steps according to the 5 Spiral Knowledge Theory and the management of music history learning based on this theory with examples from both Thai and Western music history. The application of the 5 Spiral Knowledge Theory helps learners develop a profound understanding of musical content and enhances analytical thinking skills and appropriate knowledge acquisition for various contexts. This enables learners to effectively apply knowledge in real-life situations and reinforces systematic learning processes.
