In this engaging volume, Jon Dron views education, learning, and teaching through a technological lens that focuses on the parts we play in technologies, from language and pedagogies to computers and ...regulations. He proposes a new theory of education whereby individuals are not just users but co-participants in technologies—technologies that are intrinsic parts of our cognition, of which we form intrinsic parts, through which we are entangled with one another and the world around us. Dron reframes popular families of educational theory (objectivist, subjectivist, and complexivist) and explains a variety of educational phenomena, including the failure of learning style theories, the nature of literacies, systemic weaknesses in learning management systems, the prevalence of cheating in educational institutions, and the fundamental differences between online and in-person learning. Ultimately, How Education Works articulates how practitioners in education can usefully understand technology, education, and their relationship to improve teaching practice.
Projekt a aplikáciu sme ale vyvíjali a rozširovali i po jeho skončení. Spoločnosť EVE Technologies, s. r. o. sa teda zameriava na vývoj komplexných multiplatformových aplikácií. „Ale našou hlavnou ...oblasťou pôsobeniaje najma e-learning, podieľali sme sa napríklad aj na vývoji nového korektora českéhojazyka," vysvetlil Holaj. Typicky ide o licenčnú zmluvu, v niektorých projektoch dokonca pôsobíme skôr ako externí konzultanti či dodávatelia bez vlastníckeho podielu. Pri samotnom vývoji zaisťovala EVE Technologies, s. г. о. technickú stránku aplikácie a časť projektového manažmentu, zatiaľčo Ustav českéhojazyka sa staral o obsahovú stránku. „V súčasnosti ide asi o najrozsiahlejšiu aplikáciu pre výučbu češtiny ako cudzieho jazyka. V prostredí Čiech a Slovenska však ide stále o raritu. Technická univerzita v Liberci (TUL) sa však môže pýšiť vlastnou spinoff spoločnosťou The University Company (TUC), ktorá má za úlohu podporovaťkomerciahzáciu duševného vlastníctva. TUL teda už od roku 1991 vlastnila sto percent tejto spoločnosti s ručením obmedzeným, ale až od minulého roka ju využíva na transfer technológií," vysvetlil riaditeľ spoločnosti Ondřej Moš. Hlavne ale chceme, aby pri aplikovanom výskume vznikali vynálezy, ktoré nájdu uplatnenie v spoločnosti.
This study aims to analyze learning development and the obstacles experienced by the Nahdlatul Ulama Islamic boarding school in Bekasi Regency after the COVID-19 pandemic, from curriculum, ...facilities, and human resources. This study uses a quantitative approach. The research subjects were students and caregivers from three NU Islamic boarding schools in the Bekasi district: Yapink, Nurul Huda Islamic Boarding School, and Indonesian Motivational Islamic Boarding School. The sampling method used in this research is Stratified Random Sampling and Systematic Random Sampling with proportional composition. The sample size was 320 students with sampling error = 0.05, proportion = 0.5, and the standard value of normal distribution at 5% level, z = 1.96. The test results concluded that the quality of student learning in the new average period was generally still relatively low. Educational barriers are a factor that makes the quality of student learning feel less than optimal. This is due to the impact of Covid-19 with the enactment of distance learning, the family economy is affected, and the increase in the price of health facilities, but from an institutional resilience and vulnerability standpoint, it is quite good.
The authors of the article have conducted a sociological study of the problem of confidence in schoolteachers in the Moscow region in autumn of 2019. They have interviewed teachers, students and ...their parents in the suburbs of Ramenskoye and the city of Orekhovo-Zuevo (these cities are located at different distances from Moscow), which has made it possible to see more clearly the socio-cultural specificity of the studied problem. In the article, the authors pay particular attention to the factors that affect mutual understanding between all the actors of the learning process. The authors conclude that the problem of confidence in schoolteachers is becoming more urgent, and the need for its systematic monitoring in schools appears. Considering the spread of distance learning, the authors of the article suggest that schoolteachers will face additional difficulties in building trusting relationships with students and their parents. The experience of the study, presented in the article, will be useful for finding solutions to the problem of confidence between all the actors of the learning process in changing conditions.
This article discusses the process of active implementation of online learning modes based on digital technologies. Currently available theoretical postulates and recommended procedures of learning ...activities have been verified in practice during the course in History in Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation. On this basis, certain experience of seminar classes has been accumulated (online conversations, discussions, presentations, webinars), this article is devoted to its analysis and generalization. The author has concluded that digital technologies diversify the classes and possess numerous tools to enhance motivation of students. The obtained results make it possible to state that application of several methods has been activated, such as brainstorming, mind games, metal mapping, interactive enquiries, testing and guessing games using learning platforms, for instance: Kahoot. Meanwhile, well balanced combination of the existing conventional learning modes and modern digital technologies makes it possible to provide even greater effect and result.
The article considers organizational and methodological aspects of distance learning for children with disabilities, taking into account their special educational needs. The results of a survey of ...support specialists on the use of distance learning in educational organizations are presented.
During COVID-19 pandemic the teachers were suddenly forced to change their teaching and use distance learning practices, and become innovative in their ways of teaching online. In the current study ...we sought to understand whether teachers considered themselves innovative and how this affected their distance learning self-efficacy, accountability, and distance learning teaching practices. Two hundred elementary and secondary school teachers from Israel were asked to fill in a questionnaire comprising the four abovementioned components. Findings indicated that it was teachers' self-innovativeness which had significantly influenced their distance learning self-efficacy, accountability, and distance learning teaching practices. Findings indicate that work experience directly affected self-innovativeness, and older, more experienced teachers perceived themselves as more innovative in adopting and using distance learning compared to less experienced ones. The second finding was that professional development affected distance learning teaching practices but had no effect on teachers' self-innovativeness. The study shows that increasing teachers' self-innovativeness may affect their self-efficacy and accountability and lead to better distance learning teaching practices. Therefore, it is suggested to change the focus of professional development programs to promoting teachers' self-innovativeness and encouraging them to create novel and tailored combinations of hybrid learning.
•Teachers' innovativeness directly affected their DL teaching practices.•Teachers' innovativeness directly affected their accountability and DL self-efficacy.•More experienced teachers perceived themselves as more innovative in DL practices compared to less experienced ones.•PD in form of a course on DL affected teachers' DL teaching practices but not their innovativeness.
