 INTRODUCTION:
Music is recognized as an effective mode of
teaching young children but is rarely used in
university-level science courses. While teaching
with music is rare in college classrooms, it has been
tried by people such as National Institutes of
Health Director, Francis Collins, who occasionally
sang to students at the University of Michigan.
So, today we will learn how music is integrated
with Science subject?
 MUSIC IS SCIENCE
Listening to music alters the
chemical in our brain. Playing
music is one of the only activities
that uses the whole brain at once,
making the connection between
the visual, auditory and motor
cortices.
Music are both an Art and
Science and are closely related.
Both use mathematical
principles and logic, blended
with creative thinking and
inspiration. Music is a science
because it effects us
psychologically, such as our
emotions, cognitive and health.

Reduction of Stress
Given that many students feel out of
place in science classes, enjoyable music Certain pieces

Mnemonic devices or
Memory devices

While most songs do not fulfill the “sole

purpose” criterion, they often act like
mnemonic devices in that they seem to
increase memorability. Songs generally
can be considered organizational
mnemonic devices in the sense of
structuring information according to
meter and rhyme, limiting the possible
lyrics that would fit and thus making
recall easier.

confusion when challenged to analyze scientific lyrics.
Similar learning opportunities may arise when
students create their own science songs and, in doing
so, make a number of decisions on how to express
their ideas concisely and accurately. This is analogous
to the concept of “writing to learn,” in which
explaining the material in one's own words is
considered part of the learning process, rather than a
mere reporting of what has been learned previously
