Between lessons musicians need to employ considerable  \nself-regulated learning strategies to solve learning problems and to manage their practice. Many children lack these self-regulatory skills for effective and independent practice. Digital technology advancements are offering teachers new ways to support music learning and to scaffold self-regulation in classroom settings. This semi-systematic literature review explores scholarly research in these areas to understand the implications for instrumental practice. Firstly, through examining the process and learning factors of instrumental practice, this paper identifies Self-Regulated Learning Theory as an appropriate framework to explore children’s development of self-regulation. Secondly, a synthesis of literature reveals the limited extent of research on the use of technology in facilitating this learning context. This paper highlights the fundamental need for further research into the role of technology in supporting students to become more independent learners and effective musicians.  \nKey words: Digital technology music tools, instrumental music practice, self-regulated learning  \nIntroduction  \nInstrumental learning in Western culture is traditionally offered via studio teaching utilising a master-apprentice model (Burwell, 2013; Davidson & Jordan, 2007). Between individual or small-group lessons, students are encouraged to develop their musical skills by practising their instruments. This is fundamental to musical instrument expertise development (Hallam et al., 2012; McPherson et al., 2015). As a solitary endeavour, practice requires time, commitment, effort and perseverance over a prolonged period (Ericsson et al., 1993; Lehmann & Jørgensen, 2012). Younger beginners often encounter difficulties and need to overcome many obstacles to learn effectively (McPherson & Zimmerman, 2011). Practice may not be enjoyable and becomes particularly challenging when  \nlacking in effective strategies (Hallam et al., 2012; Pitts et al., 2000). Slow progress, poor musical engagement, distractions and negative parental feedback can lead children to cease instrumental learning (McPherson et al., 2015). Students, particularly younger children, require concrete strategies and appropriate support during practice to enable effective learning and to sustain instrumental learning engagement.  \nThere is no overarching framework to explain the development of instrumental practice skills and knowledge, and musicians’ practice approach can vary depending on age and expertise. Advanced adult musicians tend to utilise extensive mental strategies such as problem-identification, goalsetting, selection of appropriate strategies and self-monitoring of progress (Hallam, 1997a; Hatfield  \nAustralian Journal of Music Education 83  \net al., 2017). In contrast, a majority of children in the beginner years lack skills to learn effectively and independently. They are unaware of making errors, are unable to identify and focus on difficult sections, and consistently play musical repertoire from beginning to end without using strategies for improvement (Hallam, 1997a; McPherson & Renwick, 2001). Children who apply more sophisticated learning strategies are more likely to achieve higher musical expertise (Bartolome, 2009; McPherson, 2005). Correspondingly, many studies in instrumental learning investigate how children can cultivate their practice to independently incorporate more advanced strategies.  \nBetween lessons musicians need to employ considerable self-regulatory strategies to so","cbCaiqadtFpsFoG4","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiqadtFpsFoG4","pdf",207368,16,"English","# Abstract\n# Key words\n# Introduction\n## Instrumental practice development and challenges\n## Self-regulation theory and learning processes\n## Digital technology in music education and instrumental learning","[{\"question\":\"Why is self-regulation important for instrumental practice between lessons?\",\"answer\":\"Between lessons, musicians need self-regulatory strategies to solve learning problems and manage practice.
