Abstract:
A piece of music titled MT1 was composed and a study carried out with it foundthat it could aid students in memorizing semantic declarative facts. This research follows on to create a mobile application (MT1 app) and the pilot studyagain confirmed the enhanced use of MT1 as a memory support tool. Constructive feedbacks were received to guide future improvements of the MT1 app. This research found that the MTI app has potential to become more versatile and to a greater extent, automated; so as to allow a widespread use and ease of access as a memory support tool.
