碩士 === 國立臺北教育大學 === 音樂學系碩士班 === 97 === Music therapy is the use of music to achieve therapeutic goals. Goal areas include motor skills, social/interpersonal development, cognitive development, self-awareness, and spiritual enhancement etc. In the elementary school, we can enhance or improve students’ learning attention by music therapy approach. We designed a set of curriculumns so called “the music therapy curriculumns for improving students’ learning attention”. As we implemented these curriculumns for the 3rd grade students in the elementary school, we got the following conclusions: 1.The students’ learning attention was improved apparently after we had implemented to teach the students our designed music therapy curriculumns. 2.The effect of our implementation was apparently distinct according to gender. Girls were better than boys. 3.The effect of our implementation was not apparently distinct according to the differential income among the students’ families. 4.The effect of our implementation was not apparently distinct whether the students ever learned musical instruments befored or not. 5.The effect of our implementation was apparently distinct by the diffirent musical affinity of the students. The students interested in music were better than those that were not interested. 6.There was positive correlation between the level of improving learning attention and the achievement of music curriculumn learning.
