Language learning through music and singing

Project Details

Description

This project extends Dr Karen Ludke’s previous research about singing and foreign language learning (Ludke, Ferreira & Overy, 2014). This experimental study with undergraduate student participants investigates the potential benefits of a ‘listen-and-sing’ (vs. speaking or rhythmic speaking) learning procedure when native English speakers learn phrases in an unfamiliar tone language (Mandarin).
