The Cultivation Mechanism of Creativity and Critical Thinking of Teenagers in Music Education

Abstract

Music education plays an important role in the cultivation of creativity and critical thinking of teenagers. Through music creation, improvisation, body movement, emotional experience and other forms, music education provides rich opportunities for teenagers to practice, stimulate their imagination and innovative consciousness. At the same time, music education emphasizes emotional experience and reflection, prompting teenagers to learn to examine problems from different angles and cultivate critical thinking ability in music activities. In addition, the integration of music with other disciplines further broadens teenagers' horizons and helps them establish interdisciplinary thinking patterns. This paper probes into the mechanism of music education for the cultivation of creativity and critical thinking of teenagers, and analyzes its specific practice in the aspects of personalized development, interdisciplinary integration and emotional and thinking integration, which provides theoretical support for the promotion and optimization of music education.
