Validating learners to sing their hearts out during the lesson allows them to be willing to work on and complete their assigned EGD activities, love the subject, and long for the next lesson. This study therefore aimed to explore how an infusion of music in EGD lessons would impact teaching and learning of EGD. Some scholarly findings show that music can deeply provoke emotions, influence mood and affect cognitive performance. A qualitative approach was adopted and a purposive sampling technique where 13 grade 11 and 12 technical students doing EGD were sampled and music was infused during their EGD period. Data generated was collected using structured interviews and classroom observations. Thematically, data was analysed and responses were themed, compared, and contrasted to shed light on a creative approach to EGD and how it can enhance the teaching and learning of EGD. This study found that allowing learners to sing does give them a sense of ease and they become comfortable around the teacher. It relaxes their mindsand enhances their performance. The study recommends that although the results have been positive, it also depends on the style of teaching that one uses and is comfortable to use. This study contributes towards creating enabling learning environment for EGD learners.  \nKeywords: Students, Music, Emotions, Attachment, Productivity, Engineering Graphics and Designs.  \nCorrespondence  \nSiphesihle E.

EGD places a strong emphasis on imparting specific foundational knowledge as well as a variety of drawing methods and abilities so that learners can create and understand drawings in the contexts of mechanical, civil, and electrical technology. The role of EGD in engineering is to equip learners with basic engineering graphic communication skills to cater for careers in engineering. Careers such as draughtsmen, architects, civil engineers and mechanical engineers. EGD introduces learners to the basic drawing principles and skills to read and interpret drawings and transform those drawings into manufacturable products for the purpose of solving problems. A learner’s skills development cannot be compromised in any way but can be nurtured in different ways. A happy child is able to work well. In most cases what makes learners happy is to be able to freely express themselves. Sometimes how they express themselves may cause chaos. No  \n© 2024 The Author(s) .
