Abstract This study investigates the impact of music on memory and learning efficiency in educational settings. Through controlled testing, we will examine how music influences neural activity, particularly in brain regions associated with memory consolidation and cognitive processing. By analyzing test performance with and without music, we aim to demonstrate that music enhances synaptic plasticity, facilitating improved learning and retention of core subjects, and fostering stronger cognitive connections.
