Abstract
Focusing on the educational value of the pentatonic scale, we conducted two workshops to clarify how participants use the pentatonic scale to “create,” “share,” and “develop” music. In the first workshop, high school students created music using various instruments, and in the second workshop, elementary school students created music using Song Maker in the Chrome Music Lab. The results of the analysis of the video data and the evaluation of the emotional aspects of students using the association method revealed the following three points: 1) Almost all the participants willingly joined the activity and created music; 2) Beginners, experienced participants, and musicians listened to each other and shared each other's sounds; and 3) Considering what they had acquired in each activity, they developed their music at each stage.
