These days, society has achieved a rapid economic growth, and at the same time globalization has made progress at a breakneck speed, forming a global village. Global village means reduction in distance between nations, and also reduction in temporal, spatial distance between individual regions in the world. In accordance with such a flow of the times, the number of multi-cultural families has rapidly increased due to the influx of foreign workers into Korea and international marriages, etc. Therefore, multi-cultural education is becoming a task which our education has to overcome. From the statistics of foreign residents situation investigation conducted by Ministry of Government Administration and Home Affairs, the foreign residents in the nation mostly comes from Asian cultural background. Thus, the necessary of the Asian education is becoming more demanding. The purpose of the study is to come up with an effective plan for the teaching methodology that deals with understanding a variety of cultural characteristics and respecting the pluralistic value. For effective multi-cultural music class education plan, this study applied the ARCS(Attention, Relevance, Confidence, and Satisfaction) learning motivation theory by John M. Keller(1938-). Keller’s ARCS learning motivation theory stands for the abbreviation of attention, relevance, confidence, satisfaction. Keller’s ARCS theory is grounded on the principle that when students can be drawn from the contents of a class, they feel interest in the contents relevant to their background. Accordingly, this study intended to raise students’ musical learning motivation and interest by arranging the plan can be concretely applied to the proper teaching and learning situation by class session. |
