participating in the study to discover their learning styles were applied in basic sciences and music education. Besides music educators who will give basic music education, it is also important for students who will take this course to explore learning styles with an active music education approach and methods. This is because, in this study, the experience is created with both the educator and the student. In this study using elementary music and movement education, at the core of which there is experiencing and discovery learning, answers to the following questions were sought: What are the behaviors that individuals adopt through elementary music and movement training? Are individuals willing to learn by experience? Is the environment (class size, class order, etc.) appropriate for experiential learning? What kind of an impact their primary, secondary, and high school experiences have on music education and teaching? What is their perception regarding music education

This study includes the applications conducted by the researcher alone for understanding and solving problems emerging in the Department of Basic

Education, music education class. Due to the role of the researcher as a participant

The study group consists of n = 77 students in the Department of Basic

To determine the learning styles of n = 77 students participating in the study, Kolb-3 learning style test was used. For the participating students to have in-depth knowledge of elementary music education, a semi-structured interview form was applied. This interview form is a written assignment that summarizes the activities carried out for one semester. In this assignment, students were asked to define and interpret the concepts of elementary, music, Orff-Schulwerk, and movement training. Additionally, the answers to the following questions were sought: Do the activities carried out for 14 weeks of lessons, in the basic sciences program and music education course in the fall of 2017–2018 have any relation to the elementary music and movement training? Could you comment on learning styles that emerge according to the Kolb-3 learning style? The writing format of the assignment was APA 6 style, which is the preferred format in academic writing, with the font Times New Roman 12 pt, in a justified alignment format. Also, the template consists of two sections, the introduction and the conclusion. In the introduction part, the concepts of elementary, music, Orff-Schulwerk, and movement training were examined. In the conclusion part, the answers to the following questions were sought: Do the activities carried out in the basic sciences program and music education course in the fall of 2017–2018 have any relation to the elementary music and movement training? What is the experiential learning style test? How do participants view their learning

and also a data collection tool, the study is *action* research [14].

styles at the end of the test?

In the Fall semester of the 2017–2018 academic year, during 14 weeks of lessons, observations, and experiences, differences in students' experiences were noted in the individual class observation report.

## *2.3.3 Micro teaching*

A study group was created in the WhatsApp application to reinforce and recollect the study. In this group, video summaries of the practices performed every week according to the micro teaching technique were recorded and shared and discussed for 5–10 min. The participant students, who made use of the videos recorded as a result of 14 weeks of education, formed groups consisting of 1-2-4 or 6 people and made presentations about nursery rhymes and counting rhymes. They made presentations about how they could apply elementary music and movement education practices in the classroom teaching course and gained experience.
