| Abstract: | Music hath the charm to sooth the savage breast , to soften rocks or bend a knotted oak”. In modern uses “ethno” is a prefix used to prefer to ethnic groups, cultures or peoples. It combines method from “musicology”and “anthropology”. In ethnomusicology music is broadly categorized into three types : folk music, art music and popular music. Folk music is the music of the soil, art music is traditional music and popular music has strong lyrics and words that a large number of people enjoy. In 21st century specially after covid period students are losing interest to go to school. So drop out rate in the school are increasing day by day. Many government schools are going to be closed for lacking of students and many parents are also losing interest to send their children to government school for lacking of proper education, pedagogy, curriculum design and proper teaching. So dropout rates are increasing day by day. For returning back to the mainstream of the study the pedagogy have to be changed and innovation have to be included. For innovative pedagogy ethnomusicology can be used as a pedagogical language tool for language learning. Researcher conducted a critical instance case study of reflection of ethnomusicology on language learning and curriculum design based on personal experience of a teacher which provides action planning for further development in future. So the teacher applied a new method for learning language. Active and receptive ethnomusic therapy was applied in language learning. For warming up the class teacher started the class with beat and rhythm activities and for introducing the class some tagore songs were played like the sun is smiling in the laps of the clouds, the winner season is calling you all, etc in order to introduce with the nature. By describing the story of folk songs like on the Makar Sankranti the young man is playing the drum, Flame tree flower and Red Silk Cotton flower on fire today in spring students can enhance their comprehension. By song based activities multiple senses of students can be engaged and they can enhance their memory by singing. Music games like “the game of ending letters”( Antaksari), fill in the blanks of lyrics can be included in the curriculum. By integrating technology like animated video help to deeper understanding and by AI power music tool student can improve language learning. At last after repeatedly practicing the song the pronunciation problem remains the same because of regional language effects. |
