In the article, taking into account the challenges of the global information revolution, modern socio-educational realities, the authors substantiate the need for a communicative approach in teaching ...physics as one of the methodological approaches of a new scientific direction – psycho didactics of physics. The purpose of the article is defined as the coverage of some results of experimental teaching of physics to high school students of a secondary school based on a communicative approach with elements of bilingualism, its essence is characterized. Using a specific example, the author’s methodology for implementing this approach was first demonstrated, the need for its integration with other psycho-didactic approaches with the aim of comprehensive development of the student’s personality in the process of teaching physics is emphasized. Some experimental data are presented that make it possible, as a first approximation, to optimistically evaluate the results of testing the methodology of the communicative approach with elements of bilingualism in physics education, the prospect of further studies to obtain data on a more voluminous statistical sample is outlined , as well as to identify the possibility of using the proposed methodology in studying other disciplines in natural sciences in both secondary and high school.

Over the years, the endeavour of teaching / learning FFL (French as a Foreign Language) came to be no longer considered as a mere developing of knowledge and skills on the linguistic elements of the ...language, which encompass its lexical, semantic, syntactic, morphologic or phonetic aspect. Learning FFL has to be achieved within the confines of its cultural framework, including ways of living and the different idiosyncratic behaviours of the French people. Songs, which recently have taken the more popular form of music videos, constitute a material which allows the FFL learner to explore not only the linguistic dimension but also the cultural requirements accompanying it. However, a proper implementation of this technique calls for a pertinent pedagogical intervention. This study is an attempt to provide an overview of some pedagogical tracks which proved helpful for the adoption of songs and music videos as a pedagogical tool, accounting for the advantages of this technique in promoting FFL learning.
Se presenta un estudio que pretende conocer y describir las ideas y creencias docentes sobre cómo enseñar la lengua escrita y cuándo iniciar tal proceso. El objetivo es indagar sobre las teorías que ...subyacen al planteamiento didáctico de los docentes, de forma que puedan establecerse derivaciones prácticas sobre la manera de afrontar este proceso educativo, y sobre la formación inicial y permanente del profesorado respecto a esta enseñanza. La investigación se llevó a cabo en Salamanca (España). El instrumento utilizado fue un cuestionario elaborado ex profeso. Esta investigación permitió detectar las creencias en las que los docentes parecen asentar sus prácticas, entre ellas: consideran que existe una edad clave para iniciar el proceso de enseñanza (5 años), valoran la enseñanza del código escrito por encima de otras tareas, como la comprensión o aspectos funcionales, y parecen decantarse por no utilizar libros de texto en esta enseñanza.
The aim of this paper is to present the idea of teaching written comprehension(reading) in specialized French courses. This study relies on an example provided by the experienceof working with ...Romanian engineering students and proposes a didactic approach which aims toachieve the main objective of written comprehension: using a specialized vocabulary.
The present research is focused on the development of technicians’ professional technical motivation on the specialty of cuisine by means of a didactic approach. The authors takes as reference other ...works made by several researchers of Cuban Pedagogy elaborates the theoretical frame making emphasis on professional pedagogical didactics process in technicians training, professional guidance and the guidelines of the suggested didactic approach. To contribute to the problem solution a didactic approach was devised, it comprises three main elements: hints for teaching, set of exercises and recommendations to solve the exercises in class.
This article examines the extent to and the ways in which the Holocaust is presented in Albanian secondary school history textbooks. It offers a quantitative analysis of the space devoted to the ...Holocaust in proportion to the textbooks' overall content and a qualitative content analysis based on the narrative patterns outlined in the UNESCO report The International Status of Education about the Holocaust: A Global Mapping of Textbooks and Curricula. It demonstrates that Albanian textbooks offer scant coverage of the Holocaust, but that some changes regarding the conceptualization, contextualization, and narrative of the Holocaust have been implemented since the curricular reform of 2004.
