The scale was applied to 106 trainee music teachers. Conformity of the data obtained to normal distribution was assessed with the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, and in the comparisons of multiple groups, the One Way ANOVA test was applied as the data showed normal distribution. The most general result that emerged was that there was a difference between the points of the multiple intelligence profiles that the students have developed according to the music genre to which they listen.

This study was carried out to determine the opinions of preservice music teachers on the processing and efficiency of Orchestra and Chamber Music courses which are based on collective playing and singing, among the online music teaching undergraduate courses conducted in the distance education process that started in Turkey in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The study group of the study consisted of 40 students studying at the 3rd and 4th grades in Mehmet Akif Ersoy University, Fine Arts Education Department, Music Education Department. In this study, the case study method which is one of the qualitative research methods, was used. The study data were collected online with a semi-structured interview form prepared by the researcher based on the literature and current researches, and were tabularized by evaluating with content analysis.  According to the results of the study, it was determined that the preservice music teachers thought that the Orchestra and Chamber Music courses were not suitable for distance education and were not taught efficiently, and partition playing and video merging techniques were used in their online courses. In addition, it was concluded that they thought that lesson teaching methods in distance education had no advantage and that the biggest disadvantage was the not being able to play music together. Preservice music teachers suggested that face-to-face education should be initiated in order to teach lessons more efficiently, or that courses should be taught by eliminating connection and technical problems on different online platforms that allow making music together.   Keywords: Distance Education, Music, Orchestra, Chamber Music

This study aims to determine the effect of metacognitive strategies-based teaching practice in guitar education on preservice music teachers’ performance achievement. Preservice music teachers ( n = 20) who were enrolled in and in the process of attending the School Instruments III-Guitar course offered by the Department of Music Education, under the school of Fine Arts Education within the Educational Faculty of Muğla Sıtkı Koçman University in Turkey during the 2018–2019 academic year constituted the sample group of the study. The study was designed as an experimental study that included a randomized pretest–posttest control group. The results revealed that both the control group students with traditional current-based education and the experimental group students with metacognitive strategies-based teaching achieved improvement in their guitar performance. However, no significant difference was found between the teaching methods used because the study was carried out with a small group and therefore has a weak statistical power to detect an effect. The results further indicated that the metacognitive strategies-based teaching practice in guitar education, as an effective alternative to the traditional curriculum-based method, can be used to achieve improvement in preservice music teachers’ guitar performance.

Attitude, which is one of the important topics of social psychology, is defined in the literature as a psychological element that can direct the behavior of individuals (Özmenteş and Özmenteş, 2009). According to Tolan, the attitude “in its broadest sense is the way in which the individual is standing up against the objects or subjects that contain a psychological value” (Gömleksiz, 2003). It has been proved by many research findings that attitudes developed as a natural result of interaction, greatly affect the success of the individual (Canakay, 2006). The effects starting from childhood, the experiences gained in later years and the fields related to the interests, desires and aims of the personality play the most decisive and effective role in the formation of attitudes. These features, which are valid in music education, are also very important in the piano education of the student. From all these definitions, it can be concluded that students' attitudes to the piano have important effects on their education and their use of the piano in the future (Bakıoğlu, 2012).The main purpose of this research is to reveal the attitudes of pre-service teachers who take Piano courses in Music Education Departments of Faculty of Education. In this study, whether the scores obtained from the Piano lesson attitude scale showed significant difference according to some variables is also examined. The research was conducted on the students of Marmara University, Ataturk Faculty of Education, Music Education Department (N = 30) in 2017-2018 academic year. The data of the study was collected by using the “Personal Information Form” prepared by the researcher and “Piano Lesson Attitude Scale” which was prepared to learn the pre-service teachers' thoughts about Piano Lesson. As a result of the study, it was found that there were statistically significant differences between the attitude levels of students and some variables (p <.05).

Music education is the process of acquiring certain musical behaviors through the individual's life purposefully. When the environments where music education is given are examined, the music departments of fine arts high schools, education faculties fine arts education department music teaching programs, art design faculties music departments, fine arts faculties music departments, conservatories, public education centers, art centers, sections of municipal conservatories reserved for music lessons, etc. appears to be. In order to provide music education in a healthy way, the noise level of the buildings where music education is given should be controlled and the buildings should have certain qualifications. Buildings, classrooms and concert halls should be designed with attention to be in a form that can have acoustic properties. With the advancement of technology and the discovery of new materials, important developments have begun to emerge in building materials. While all these developments (strength, flexibility, bendability, etc.) generally reflect positively on the properties of the material, they may cause some disadvantages, especially in terms of insulation and acoustics. However, the slow progress of the legislation related to insulation causes the development speed of the studies on building materials to decrease. Insulation is of great importance, especially in terms of achieving the purpose of educational buildings with musical functions. In this study, information was provided about wool, which is a textile material, and felt obtained from wool. Evaluations were made about the usability of wool and felt in music education environments. Keywords: Wool, felt, music education, ınsulation, textile
