A Study of Information Technology-Enabled Piano Teaching in the Context of the Digital Age

The wave of digitalization has reshaped the traditional educational landscape, and piano teaching is now undergoing a significant transformation. The traditional teaching mode is limited by physical space, teacher distribution and single teaching resources, which is difficult to meet the needs of contemporary learners for flexibility, personalization and diversity. The intervention of information technology has brought subversive changes to piano education: virtual reality technology can reconstruct immersive practicing scenarios, artificial intelligence algorithms can analyze the details of performance in real time, and cloud platforms can potentially facilitate the sharing of high-quality resources from distinguished instructors worldwide. However, the ideal vision of technological empowerment is not without challenges, as some applications result in fragmented interactive experiences due to immature technology, and the gap between teachers' technological adaptability and students' autonomy has become a practical obstacle. Exploring the in-depth integration of technology and art is not only an inevitable choice for the modernization of piano education, but also a challenge for the inheritance of music humanism in the digital era.
