Experimental study assesses digital technologies’ impact on creative thinking in first-year music students, suggesting effective e-learning strategies.
Interactive technologies offer a novel, innovative and exceptional way to structure students' learning experiences. Today, individuals are expected to possess attributes such as creative problem‐solving, the ability to navigate complex situations, teamwork, decision‐making and a strong sense of responsibility, all while proficiently utilising modern digital tools. This research aims to design an interactive online music education course and assess the influence of digital technologies on students' creative thinking abilities. The experimental study was conducted at a music school in China, using a questionnaire survey to collect data. The sample consisted of two music educators and 100 first‐year students enrolled in the newly developed online programme. Students participated in interviews both before and after the course. The findings indicate significant enhancements in students' creative thinking post‐course. Future research should explore effective e‐learning strategies, tools and activities to refine teaching methodologies in music education.
