ABSTRACT

This article analyzed the main problems and challenges faced by choral education in the current education system by studying the existing methods for cultivating choral talents in primary and secondary schools. By applying innovative teaching strategies and methods, the aim was to propose a more effective model for cultivating choral talents. The research results indicated that the application of comprehensive art education concepts and technical means can significantly improve students' music literacy and choral performance. In the skill enhancement experiment, after receiving innovative teaching, the average score of students increased from 60 points to 75 points. The team collaboration ability assessment showed that the student's team collaboration ability score increased from an average of 5.5 points before the activity to 7.5 points after the activity. Then the student engagement survey also showed that after changing the teaching methods, the average score of student engagement increased from 3 points to 4 points. The final cultural diversity acceptance test revealed that students had the highest average liking rating for five different cultural music genres, but overall showed an open attitude towards multiculturalism. In these data surveys, innovative teaching methods can effectively improve students' music skills, teamwork ability, participation, and acceptance of cultural diversity.
