Development Of Advanced Angklung Performance Skills Using Davies’ Practical Skills Teaching Model

Abstract

This study aimed to (1) examine the process of advanced angklung skill training and (2) develop advanced angklung shaking exercises based on Davies’ Instructional Model for the Psychomotor Domain, using a research and development approach. The instruments included interviews, participant observation, a pilot quality assessment form, and a certification form. The findings identified eight steps in angklung ensemble arrangement: adjusting musical mode and style, techniques, skills, appropriateness, performance style, rhythmic instruments, synchronization, and the angklung set. The developed package consisted of 13 exercises, including two sub-skill sets and one supplementary set. Evaluation by three experts showed excellent quality (mean = 4.0), indicating its suitability as a resource for improving students’ angklung shaking skills.
