Abstract

The article highlights the issues of integrating the elements of problem-based learning into the classical system of music education by the example of learning to play the piano. The analysis of the general provisions combining traditional piano pedagogy with the concept of problem-based learning developed by the outstanding Polish didact V. Okon is carried out. The algorithm of actions aimed at activating the student’s activity in piano lessons is indicated, and a number of particular examples of the application of elements of problem-based learning in practice in the piano classroom are also considered. This study substantiates the application of the ideas and principles of problem-based learning in the plane of Russian piano pedagogy, and also provides the necessary pedagogical conditions for the successful integration of elements of problem-based learning into the traditional format of piano teaching. The characteristic features of the formation of a problem situation as a basic element of problem learning in piano lessons are highlighted and described. Also, special attention is paid to examples of the application of such integration in practice, in the context of various stages of mastering the tool. This problem has been little studied and requires further research in the field of piano pedagogy.
