This article presents a digital platform comprising eleven minigames aimed at deepening the use of a musical keyboard by young learners. Specifically, the platform requires the use of a MIDI controller, and some games aim to familiarize users with typical controls found on digital pianos, such as wheels and sliders. The platform is freely available from an online repository. An initial experimentation involving nine users was conducted, where two questionnaires were administered: the first before the gaming activity for user profiling purposes, and the second after the gaming activity to evaluate the experience. The tests carried out reveal positive results concerning satisfaction, engagement, and skill improvement, simultaneously indicating a low level of tension and annoyance.

Abstract
This article presents a digital platform comprising eleven minigames aimed at deepening the use of a musical keyboard by young learners. Specifically, the platform requires the use of a MIDI controller, and some games aim to familiarize users with typical controls found on digital pianos, such as wheels and sliders. The platform is freely available from an online repository. An initial experimentation involving nine users was conducted, where two questionnaires were administered: the first before the gaming activity for user profiling purposes, and the second after the gaming activity to evaluate the experience. The tests carried out reveal positive results concerning satisfaction, engagement, and skill improvement, simultaneously indicating a low level of tension and annoyance.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
