The primary objective of this study is to investigate whether three interaction strategies through mobile apps may be associated with increases in students' music listening skills. Data was collected from 225 high school students and analysed using the ANOVA procedure in the three ways of music listening: analytic, aesthetic and sensory. Interaction with the app was least influential in the analytic listening of the participants. Interaction with peers was most influential in the aesthetic listening of the participants. Interaction with the app was most influential in the sensory listening of the participants.
