Research Facility
An
Overview
The Piano Pedagogy Research Laboratory is a state-of-the-art
facility meeting international high technology standards. Its infrastructure
makes it possible to directly observe specific visual or auditory phenomena in
order to measure the complex activity of learning to play the piano. The
laboratory's sophisticated hardware enables a variety of experiments in a
controlled environment. A novice student's performance can be digitized, saved
on computer or on videotape, and converted into statistical graphs and
measurements.
A laboratory of this calibre and
specialization is unique. The benefits from its accessibility to students,
researchers, and teachers in this field of research will be far reaching and
significant.
