摘要：The authors of this study investigate the effects of applying the vocal performance teaching method on the social-emotional competencies (SEC) of second-grade pupils in elementary education. The study included a total of 89 pupils from Sombor and Kikinda, Serbia. The method of experimenting with parallel groups using initial and final tests was applied. A scale for the assessment of SEC and two-way mixed ANOVA were used to process the data. The experimental group (n=44) was subjected to the teaching method of learning songs by ear carried out by the music teacher, while the control group (n=45) learned the songs by ear based on the traditional model carried out by the class teacher for a period of one school year. The results showed significant differences in the level of SEC of students of the experimental group. By increasing the capacity for empathy, expression of pleasant emotions, better treatment of marginalized groups, collaboration with other students, the experimental teaching method has also encouraged the direction of the teaching process towards the goals, outcomes and effects, and not towards the adoption of ready-made knowledge.
