Abstract

Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) are tools that are part of the process of teaching and learning music. These didactic/pedagogical resources are widely used by teachers. They strengthen, motivate, and increase the student’s interest in learning. This study is an action-research (AR). It involves 12 teachers and 68 students in the subject of music education in an Ecuadorian university. A Holistic and Technological Model of Music Education (HTMME) was generated. The performance of the plan was evaluated by means of an original questionnaire and qualitative work. The AR procedure involved an analysis of data at the end of each implementation cycle. The appreciation of the new model was very positive. With the methodology implemented, new teaching experiences and relevant learning for students were achieved. Learning music with ICT induces creative-musical processes in students.
