Rapid technological advancement influences the communication and information management as well as knowledge construction. Within the context of new challenges, lifelong learning emerges a fundamental element for the constant development of professionals. So that it dynamically adapts to change and retain a state-of-the-art identity. At present, Computer Science Education, Information and Communication Technology (ICT) are becoming one of the most important elements which are defining the basic competencies of students. Information technology integrates medial, informative and computer science education, but also all the educational subjects mentioned in the curriculum basis of general education. In Science education, there is an increasing concept of integrated teaching, which shows the students, the world in a holistic manner. The principle of universal activity of students in cognitive, emotional and motivation, as well as in practical sphere is preferred. More and more often attention is paid to the fact that the contemporary problem is not so much lack of information, as its surplus and crowd of information as well as its unnecessary excess of details may be an effective tool of disinformation. Hence it forms such skills with students as selection, evaluation and organizing of information and forming its structure seems to be justified. So that, they can serve the drawing conclusion. In this article, the author has briefly outlined and taking into account the various manners of didactic transformation of teaching contents. Selected ICT tools have been presented in the light of teaching principles and cognitive activities model.
The purpose of the research study was to identify the effects of computer-based programs on mathematical achievement, perceptions, and engagement of fourth-grade students. The 31 student participants were divided into two intervention groups, as a hands-on group and a computer-based group. Student achievement was measured by comparing the pretest and post test data. Students' perceptions of mathematics were determined using students' perception survey that was administered prior to implementation of the intervention and at the end of the seven-week intervention period. Student engagement was monitored using an ‘engagement checklist’ that was completed by the teacher-researcher within three times a week during the seven-week intervention period. The research findings showed that, there is no significant difference in the academic achievement among the intervention groups. All student participants showed a positive attitude related to mathematics. There was a significant difference in engagement among students in the computer-based group compared to the students in the hands-on group.
Many universities and colleges are increasingly concerned about enhancing the comprehension and knowledge of their students, particularly in the classroom. One of the method to enhancing student success is teaching effectiveness. The objective of this research paper is to propose a novel research model which examines the relationship between teaching effectiveness and student learning outcomes qualitatively. This new model will use a unique and in–depth qualitative case study methodology especially designed for the instructional setting. The anticipated qualitative data collecting techniques will include, but not limited to the following: observations, personal interviews, qualitative survey questionnaires, research field notes, document review, etc. The proposed Model used assumed data and applied statistical Cross–Tabulation and Chi–Square Tests, including a theoretical analysis of the open–ended responses and field notes recorded from participants (a sample of 32 students presently enrolled in a Semester–long English ENG 1200–01 course at a public university in North Carolina). The associative statistical findings found a positive relationship between the teaching effectiveness and student learning. The outcomes of the study will increase the current lack of information on the use of qualitative research designs by determining teaching efficacy and its effects on student achievement. This new model expands the existing measures by providing new measures to examine the teaching effectiveness and its effect on student learning.
Most people believe that our schools and colleges are failing to teach kids and youngsters the 21 century skills which they will need in order to succeed in the future (Berger, Edward. 2007). Communication technology, particularly realth time and collaborative online communities, represents an enormous draw for teenagers. Doctors no longer use 19 century practices on their patients; likewise educators have a duty to incorporate modern technology into the classroom (Palitha, Chiara. 2007). The present study tries to find out the Effectiveness of Video Podcast in Learning Psychology among Bachelor of Education Trainees. Two equivalent group experimental-designs are employed for this study. The investigator has chosen 48 Bachelor of Education students from Dr. Sivanthi Aditanar College of Education, Tiruchendur, Tuticorin District for the study. According to the scoring of pre-test, 24 students were chosen as Control Group and 24 students were chosen as Experimental Group. Finally the investigator concludes that, (a) 37.5% of the control group students have low level, 58.3 %of them have moderate level and 4.2 % of them have high level of the gain scores. Among the experimental group students 8.3 % of them have low level, 58.3% of them have moderate level and, 33.3 % of them have high level of the gain scores. (b) There is a significant difference between control and experimental group students in their gain scores. which is the experimental group student is better than the control group students in their gain scores. (c)There is significant difference between control and experimental group students in their gain scores for attainment of the knowledge and understanding objectives. which is, the experimental group is better than control group in attainment of their knowledge and understanding objectives. There is no significant difference between the gain scores of control and experimental group students in attainment of application objectives. (d) There is no significant difference between control group and experimental group students in their pre test scores. There is significant difference between control and experimental group students in post-test mean scores. According to the ‘t-test’ result the experimental group is better than the control group.
This study is set in the context of a Post Graduate course for Teacher Education where the participants were exposed to a systematic reflective learning strategy facilitated by a structured interactive e-learning platform. The e-platform was used for students to share, reflect and they had demonstration of skills in class. The researcher intended to develop generic skills as well as the professional skills of a teacher. e-platform illustrates the roles of students' participation and its impact over the development of both personal and professional skills. The reflections of the students before and after the program reveal the achievement of learning outcomes. It envisages the recommendations of NCFTE (National Curriculum for Teacher Education, 2009) and OECD (2013) at global level. The findings reveal the skill development of the students in terms of generic skills (critical thinking, analytic reasoning, problem solving and written communication) as well as professional skills (knowledge on advanced methods of teaching and delivery in classroom).
