This study implemented a practice in elementary school music appreciation classes in which students visualized their emotional responses to music through color using a video editing application, and engaged in discussions based on the colors they selected. Following this, the students’ written appreciation texts were analyzed to examine the relationship between what they heard and felt, as well as to explore the impact of this practice on the content of their writing.
The results indicated that students were able to construct their appreciation texts by effectively linking auditory perception with emotional experience. In addition, an analysis of students’ verbal interactions during opinion exchanges revealed that those who were able to verbalize their impressions through the medium of color wrote appreciation texts with more expressive and content-rich descriptions.
