Diseño y puesta en funcionamiento de la “escalera musical” como medio saludable de relacionar áreas de conocimiento

Abstract

Nowadays, in an attempt to modernize the school, information and communication technologies (ICT) are a regular part of the teaching-learning process. However, according to Díaz (2009, p.20), "we will not assume that the use of ICT is synonymous with educational quality, much less a guarantee of learning" words that are especially relevant in the case of music teaching where its use is mainly focused on editing music scores, or editing and reproduction of audio. Under this context, this project emerged, where our main objective was that students could verify and experience the relationship between pitch (musical height) and geometric height. We also wanted to show the relationship of music with other areas, such as mathematics, physics and art, as well as the promotion of healthy lifestyles and awareness to avoid noise pollution. The project, developed by teachers and students of music subjects of Undergraduate, Master and PhD studies consisted of the design and commissioning of a sound installation in the Faculty of Education Sciences of the UDC, which would transform the main stairs of the faculty on a piano-shaped musical stairs.
