Abstract
The purpose of this study has been to examine an educational material created by us, the authors, which breaks down the guitar’s tonal construction and decodes its’ asymmetry. The material was created with the ambition to make it easier for students to connect their musical knowledges to the guitar’s fretboard. In this study, we wanted to examine if this material has any relevance in different educational situations and find out if our reflections about the lack of material such as this in guitar education is corroborated by other guitarists´ experiences. In order to conduct this study, three methods were employed: survey, interviews and portfolios. The methods were designed from the study’s three scientific questions: How do the survey’s... (More)

In order to conduct this study, three methods were employed: survey, interviews and portfolios. The methods were designed from the study’s three scientific questions: How do the survey’s respondents visualize the tonal construction of the guitar’s fretboard? What are the survey’s respondents´ educational experiences regarding the tonal construction of the guitar´s fretboard? According to the interviews’ and portfolios’ informants, what relevance has our educational material for guitar teachers and guitar students in various educational situations? The material was evaluated during the interviews and applied during the portfolios. The study’s result showed that an educational material like our own was relevant and that the respondents' experiences regarding this subject differed. (Less)
Abstract (Swedish)
Syftet med detta arbete har varit att undersöka ett av oss framtaget undervisningsmaterial som grundligt bryter ner gitarrens tonala uppbyggnad och avkodar dess asymmetri. Materialet var framtaget med ambitionen att underlätta för elever att koppla sina musikaliska kunskaper till gitarrens greppbräda. I detta arbete ville vi undersöka om materialet har någon relevans i olika undervisningsformer samt ta reda på om våra reflektioner kring brist på denna typ av material i gitarrundervisning stämmer överens med andra gitarristers erfarenheter. För att undersöka detta användes tre olika metoder i form av enkät, intervjuer och portföljer som utformades utifrån våra tre forskningsfrågor: Hur ser respondenterna i enkätstudien på visualisering av...

Syftet med detta arbete har varit att undersöka ett av oss framtaget undervisningsmaterial som grundligt bryter ner gitarrens tonala uppbyggnad och avkodar dess asymmetri. Materialet var framtaget med ambitionen att underlätta för elever att koppla sina musikaliska kunskaper till gitarrens greppbräda. I detta arbete ville vi undersöka om materialet har någon relevans i olika undervisningsformer samt ta reda på om våra reflektioner kring brist på denna typ av material i gitarrundervisning stämmer överens med andra gitarristers erfarenheter. För att undersöka detta användes tre olika metoder i form av enkät, intervjuer och portföljer som utformades utifrån våra tre forskningsfrågor: Hur ser respondenterna i enkätstudien på visualisering av gitarrens greppbräda utifrån toner? Vilka är respondenterna i enkätstudiens erfarenheter kring undervisning gällande visualisering av gitarrens greppbräda utifrån toner? Vilken relevans anser informanterna i intervju- och portföljstudien att materialet har i undervisning för gitarrister och gitarrelever? Materialet blev utvärderat under intervjuerna samt testades under portföljerna. De huvudsakliga resultaten från de olika metoderna visade att det finns en relevans för ett material som det vi har skapat samt att respondenternas erfarenheter kring detta ämne skiljde sig åt.
