The purpose of the study is to investigate the effects of music task competence-music identification, music classification, music serial-for the children with mental retardation through MMCP(Manhattanville Music Curriculum Program).
For the study, three children with mental retardation were selected from those who enroll at special classes of elementary schools or special schools. and The procedure applied to the study centered upon competencies' changes of music activities for children with mental retardation through MMCP.
The instrument of train was used M-PACD in behalf of program of music activities through MMCP.
I reveal that results of this study are follows as :
First, after applying to music activities of children with mental retardation through MMCP, competence of music identification task of children with mental retardation be all significantly improved.
Second, after applying to music activities of children with mental retardation through MMCP, Music activities through MMCP have no effect on competency of music classification.
Third, after applying to music activities of children with mental retardation through MMCP, Music activities through MMCP have an influence on music serial Competence.
In this results, we know that study's results coming out music classification, serial and identification in regular sequence in study's results of general children contrasted strikingly with those of children with mental retardation. This results were showed that children with mental retardation have a more relatively difficulties in competence of music classification than music identification and serial.
Considering above conditions, further suggestions are follows as :
First, It should be needed study of how to combine existing music class and music class through MMCP.
Second, It should be needed systematic development of program appropriate to children with mental retardation in consideration of unique behavior, learning characteristic and given condition.
Third, It should be needed concrete tool's development of evaluation to evaluate music competence in quality for children with mental retardation.
