Abstract

This study explores the application of the TPACK (Technological, Pedagogical, and Content Knowledge) framework in music education and uses the IMMS scale to measure students' learning motivation, evaluating its impact on students' motivation, academic performance, and learning satisfaction. The research found that integrating technological tools through the TPACK framework significantly enhances students' learning motivation and classroom engagement, especially in music creation and technology interaction, greatly stimulating students' enthusiasm and interest in learning. Additionally, the academic performance and learning satisfaction of the experimental group were higher than those of the control group, indicating that teaching methods under the TPACK framework are more interactive and innovative. However, the study also points out that teachers' ability to integrate technology and curriculum design are crucial for the successful application of the TPACK framework. Future efforts need to strengthen teacher training and technical support to optimize teaching effectiveness. In summary, the TPACK framework has significant advantages in music education, but realizing its full potential still requires overcoming challenges related to technology adaptability, instructional design, and teacher capability.
