An inclusive educational space in the process of learning music
The methodology of inclusive education in the field of musical art often becomes a subject of interest to researchers. The focus of attention in existing developments and methodological manuals, as a rule, is the period of early development, which turns out to be quite natural – the children's audience is the most favorable age category for the formation of contact, assistance and effective use of music therapy techniques. Less attention is paid to the process of conducting classes with young and middle-aged students. Along with this, little has been studied issues that reveal the principles of conducting music classes using special computer equipment for people with disabilities.
This article examines the experience of using the mobile workplace "Elnot 301", which is a set of hardware and software tools specifically aimed at helping people with visual impairment. During the experiment, a focus group was determined, a lesson plan was drawn up, and an assistive device was tested during the lesson. The focus group included four participants: a 4th-year student of the orchestra faculty specializing in violin with visual pathology: moderate visual impairment – disability of the third group, a teacher by profession, an accompanist, an assistant of electronic equipment. The aim of the experiment is to determine the role of such auxiliary mechanisms in the learning process. The objectives of the experiment were to determine the algorithm for using the device, taking into account the effectiveness of its implementation, and analyzing the positive and negative aspects of the transplantation of assisting technology into the educational process. The field of application was the process of reading sheet music in a duet with a pianist. The conclusions outline the positive aspects of the inclusion of the mobile workplace "Elnot 301" in the educational process, and indicate the shortcomings identified during the lesson.
