Bildung in het hbo. Opvattingen van docenten over hun taak in de vorming van studenten.

Abstract Bildung in Dutch universities of applied sciences. Teachers’ perceptions about their task in students’ moral education. In response to market ideology permeating the education system, an appeal has been made to the notion of Bildung to understand better what (higher) education should be about. Traditionally, it denotes a process of becoming human through which individuals can develop their capacities and talents in a harmonious way by relating to cultural sources. Worldwide, empirical research on Bildung is extremely scarce, and the picture of how lecturers at universities of applied science understand their task to contribute to students’ moral education is very fragmented. An online survey was filled out by employees (n = 686) of ten different institutes of a large Dutch university of applied science. Students’ formation turned out to be part of their task perceptions, and was largely understood in terms of stimulating critical thinking and inquiring attitudes. The majority claimed to stimulate Bildung by being a role model and by incorporating it in their daily lessons. Lecturers experienced a packed curriculum, a focus on testing and assessment, and a poor institutional vision on Bildung as obstacles to act on their perceptions. The article ends with a discussion of the (limited) power of the Bildung tradition for universities of applied sciences today.

Daily medical education for confined students during coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic: A simple videoconference solution.

The outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection has recently spread globally and is now a pandemic. As a result, university hospitals have had to take unprecedented measures of containment, including asking nonessential staff to stay at home. Medical students practicing in the surgical departments find themselves idle, as nonurgent surgical activity has been canceled, until further notice. Likewise, universities are closed and medical training for students is likely to suffer if teachers do not implement urgent measures to provide continuing education. Thus, we sought to set up a daily medical education procedure for surgical students confined to their homes. We report a simple and free teaching method intended to compensate for the disappearance of daily lessons performed in the surgery department using the Google Hangouts application. This video conference method can be applied to clinical as well as anatomy lessons.

Getting the Teacher’s Attention: Parent-Teacher Contact and Teachers’ Behavior in the Classroom

AbstractStudies suggest that both parental involvement and support from teachers matter for students’ academic success. Although cross-national research has revealed numerous ways in which parents shape the schooling process, less clear is whether parental involvement at school can influence teachers’ daily behavior toward students in class. In this study, I draw on data from the China Education Panel Survey (CEPS)—a nationally representative survey of Chinese middle-school students with unusually detailed information on parental involvement and teachers’ daily behaviors—to test a conceptual model that proposes a link between parent-teacher contact in China and attention students receive from teachers during daily lessons. In support of the conceptual model, I find that students whose parents cultivate relationships with teachers through frequent contact are more likely to be cold-called on and praised by teachers in class, even after controlling for family background, student academic performance, and student behavior. Moreover, I observe social class differences in parent-teacher contact, as well as some evidence that parent-teacher contact is linked to improved student performance through its impact on teachers’ attention. Overall, the findings point to a potential new pathway through which social class influences schooling by way of school-based parental involvement and in a broader set of contexts than previously imagined. I conclude with a discussion of implications for social reproduction theory, as well as challenges this situation presents for combatting educational inequality.

Vibroacoustic influence use in training young boxers

The article presents mobility and balance of nervous processes analysis in young boxers during vibroacoustic influence use. The research was held on the basis of Republican boarding school N5 of sports profile in Ufa. 82 boxers took part in the research (14-15 years old). The respondents were divided into two groups: control group (n=48) and the experimental group (n=34). General mobility, balance and power of nervous processes estimation was held at psychophysiological testing gadget “Sports psychophysiologist”. As the means of rehabilitation we used tinting with the help of medical apparatus “Vitophone”. Young boxers’ calf muscles tinting was held in the following regimen: twice (10-15 minutes each) at the end of the first daily training lesson of special-preparatory period. During microvibrations use at the end of the first training lesson we reveal nervous system excitability in young boxers, the power of nervous processes also increases in terms of external disturbances, the accuracy of reactions increases, there is balance of irritation and inhibition. As a result of the research we revealed the possibilities of vibroacoustic influence use in the process of young boxers training.

The USA Pandemic (COVID-19) and Home-Based Electronic Instruction

With the onset of COVID-19 pandemic in the USA many schools closed and were replaced with in-home computer instruction. This action, required Computers, Internet, and WIFI to access the daily lessons. This effort will suggest that many of the poor/working class parents of many of these students will be unable to afford the luxuries of Computers, Internet, and WIFI. Hence, these students/children will be unable to access the class sessions and assignments, negatively affecting their intellectual and social growth.

The effect of game-based learning on academic achievement motivation of elementary school students

Game-Based Learning is widespread among elementary school students. Consequences in academic achievement motivation have been studied frequently. The aim of this study was to test the effectiveness of the Game-Based Learnings on the academic achievement motivation of the elementary school students. We used from a field method to collect the required data and complete the standard questionnaire. The study is a semi-experimental design with pretest-posttest design with the control group. The statistical population was 256,836 students of the first grade of elementary school students in the 2016-17 academic year. Sixty students (32 males and 28 females) were selected through a purposive method. Then, the subjects of the study were randomly allocated to the control and experimental groups, and a pre-test was performed from both groups. The experimental group was exposed to Misha and Kosha Game-Based Learnings, while we implemented the conventional teaching method to the control group. The measuring tool was the Inventory of School Motivation (ISM) questionnaire. The test has sufficient validity and reliability (α = 0.84). The covariance analysis test (MANCOVA) revealed that the experimental group had significantly higher scores for academic achievement motivation than the control group. Also, the results showed that the computer educational game impacted academic achievement motivation of elementary students. According to the results, the necessity of using computer-based games in elementary school students is felt. Therefore, it is necessary to find a more suitable place in the teachers' daily lesson plan. The results can be good for educators, instructional and game designers and researchers from implementation, design and research perspectives, respectively.

Teacher development: Resources and devices to promote reflective attitudes toward their profession

Abstract The Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) has been increasingly used to inform language policies and teaching practices in Japan. The Japanese Ministry of Education proposed in 2011 that objectives of English curricula at the secondary education level ought to be stated using the “Can do” schemata of the CEFR and then announced a new English examination system for college enrolment to be launched in 2020. This top-down approach to implementing the CEFR, however, has caused practitioners great confusion and led to mis-conceptualisations of the CEFR. A group of practitioners conducted a research project aiming to develop a practical guide to CEFR-informed learning, teaching and assessment. It attempts to provide practitioners with CEFR-related resources and tools to implement the CEFR for course design. To design a course, users of the CEFR need to modify scaled illustrative descriptors in principled ways to fit local needs. The modified descriptors become the basis for daily lesson plans, and function as an assessment tool for teacher and learner self-assessment. This report summarises the research project and workshops held in 2017 and 2018.

Implementation of the Science-based Learning Model MaHMud (Fun, Warm and Easy) in PAUD SIAGA of Cimahi City

The MaHMud Model (Fun, Warm and Easy) is a new way of learning in early childhood education level. The purpose of this paper is to explain and describe the MaHMud learning model starting from the Daily Lesson Plan (RPPH), the development of teaching materials, and teaching strategies that the teachers use during the teaching practice and during the evaluation. The research method used in this paper is descriptive method which is used to describe the application of Mahmud learning model in PAUD Siaga of Cimahi City. The results of the study show that the teachers made the lesson plans based on the 2013 PAUD Curriculum. MaHMud Model on science learning is being implemented through a scientific approach. The theme was being adjusted by using plants as the theme, the method used in the study is the demonstration method. When they were learning by planting a certain vegetables, they used hydroponic techniques. Science learning with the MaHMud Model is meant to foster children’s critical thinking skills and help children understand the world around them.

THE EFFECTIVENESS OF ADAPTING THE 5E MODEL CYCLES AS DAILY LESSON PLANS AND USES FOR LESSON DELIVERY PROCESSES IN TEACHING BIOLOGY

The aim of the research was to adapt the 5E model cycles as daily lesson plans, uses for biology lesson delivery processes and evaluate its effectiveness in comparison with the uses of classical steps of daily lesson plans. Quasi-experimental method was used to identify variables of data collections in which recognized variables were set to compose of 1-5 rated score checklists. The 5E model cycles were adapted as daily lesson delivery processes instead of the classical steps of teaching biology that 40 trainees of biology teaching conducted peer-teaching twice using both the newly designed and the classical steps in four Colleges of Teacher Education of Ethiopia, whereby the effectiveness of using both the processes of daily lesson plans were evaluated comparatively. As a result, adapting the 5E model cycles for lesson delivery process was 50.65% more effective than using the classical steps in the process of teaching biology. The research was concluded by the fact that adapting the 5E model cycles in biology lesson delivery process played significant roles to carry out classroom discussions confidentially, construct conceptual understanding and self preparedness in learning to conduct practical education. Keywords: knack, lesson plans, peer-teaching, rated scores, variables.

Multidisciplinary Discourses in an engineering design-based science curricular unit

To promote rich discourse around scientific and engineering practices, teachers may turn to engineering design-based science curricula; however, this has discursive demands which have yet to be examined in a unit focused on integration of engineering and science. To investigate these discursive demands, we expand on the definition of discourse to include the ways of knowing, doing, talking, reading, writing, and context within science and engineering—and refer to these as disciplinary Discourses. The following major research question guided this study: how are multiple Discourses enacted by both the teacher during whole class discussions and students in small groups in an engineering design-based curricular unit? In this descriptive case study, we investigated these disciplinary Discourses in a design-based unit that focused on integration of engineering into a sixth-grade genetics unit through whole-class videos and audio recordings of a target student group. Our findings suggest that while the Discourses present in whole class discussions often reflected the focus of the daily lesson, this unit creates a space for multidisciplinary Discourse to emerge between science and engineering. Also, this teacher merged everyday and more technical disciplinary Discourses to scaffold the students’ understanding. Finally, we observed multidisciplinary Discourses between science and engineering emerge in our student group, suggesting that students can successfully integrate the two disciplines. This study therefore begins to investigate the disciplinary Discourses present in a design-based curricular unit and specifically multidisciplinary Discourses that may enhance students’ understanding of both science and engineering.

Humour Discourse in Internet Memes: An Aid in ESL Classrooms

In the ever-changing classroom dynamics of the twenty-first century, teaching needs to be innovative in order to be effective. The youth of the present age are members of virtual societies communicating mostly through the digital medium. This digital communication has its effects on the traditional classroom lectures. There has been a marked decline in basic language skills. Learners are less attentive and need more motivation. Interactive method of teaching is the best method of teaching language. But for this, the learners have to participate in the classroom and contribute something of their own. Learners have to be taught in a method that interests them and makes the language taught to them relevant in context. There is a need to incorporate digital communicative medium inside the language classroom in an enterprising and novel way while maintaining a low affective filter. For this, teachers have to adopt a systematic approach to digital technology. They need to be more versatile and integrate digital information in their daily lesson plans and the classroom activities. This research proposes one such digital age teaching procedure wherein internet memes are used to teach English. Internet memes provide humour and reduce anxiety. They can make the learners attentive and relate to the language learning process.

Planning for all students: promoting inclusive instruction

ABSTRACT In this paper, we will analyze the inclusive education policies and practices of a Province in Canada. Qualitative methods were used to analyze the planning of teaching and learning for students, with a focus on those with a Personalized Learning Plan (PLP). The process involved extended school and classroom observation, completion of questionnaires and analysis of documents, including lesson plans, individual student records, and PLPs of specific students. An observation grid and questionnaires were designed ad hoc. This province was an early adopter of an inclusive educational model. Schools in the province have a long tradition of developing accommodations for individual students in a ‘common learning environment’. In this article, we analyze learning and curriculum planning and its influence on the development of inclusive practices in the classroom. We found that teachers continue to struggle to develop effective individual learning plans. Our analysis leads us to suggest a model for teachers to conceptualise appropriate strategies and accommodations for students in their daily lesson plans.

Application of Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) in teaching and learning through communication component and spiritual, attitudes and values component in preschool

The main aim of this study is to observe the application of Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) in teaching and learning through Communication component and Spiritual, Attitudes and Values component in preschool. This study was conducted using qualitative method and also using Daily Lesson Plan (DLP) of a practicum teacher at the kindergarten that was located in Ipoh, Perak. This study also uses Hermeneutics Method. This method is used to interpret the DLP texts that were written by the practicum teacher. A total of 13 Daily Lesson Plans from the week nine until the fifteenth week were reviewed by focusing on Communication component that was Malay language and English and also Moral Education for the Spiritual, Attitudes and Values component. The researcher analyses the Higher Order Thinking Skills in teaching and learning in preschool through Communication component and Spiritual, Attitudes and Values component. It was found that teachers uses only three levels of Higher Order Thinking Skills, i. e. application, analysis and evaluation in teaching and learning. However, only twice the level of thinking, created was used by teacher. Teaching and learning that was carried out did not include an attractive teaching aids. As a way to overcome the problem of teachers in teaching and learning, practical teacher must have wide knowledge through extensive reading in order to implement the various activities and more interesting.

The Use of Social Media by Prospective Teachers and Their Practice Aims of Web Technologies in Turkey

The purpose of this research is to find out prospective teachers' use of social media tools and their practice aim of web technologies. The research was prepared in survey model. Convenience sampling technique was used in the research. The sample of the research is composed of 61 prospective elementary teachers from education faculty of a state university, and 53 prospective teachers in the Department of Computer and Instructional Technology (CEIT). The data collection tool is social media and web technology usage scale which is developed by the researcher. This scale consists parts of using social media and web technologies. The first part of this scale consists of terms about social media tools and the other part consists of information about usage of web technologies. At the end of the research, it was concluded that prospective teachers always use YouTube and Instagram as readers and also other social media tools such as WhatsApp application. However, it has been found that prospective teachers tend to use Web technologies very much in their daily work, lessons and entertainment at sub-dimensions. It is advisable to carry out studies related to different science and different departments except for the prospective teachers regarding the usage of web technology.

Nature contact at school: The impact of an outdoor classroom on children’s well-being

ABSTRACTNature contact facilitates healthy child development and a disconnect with nature presents potential health risks. This study was designed to test a nature intervention at an elementary school among children. An experimental crossover design was implemented over six weeks; two teachers taught their respective kindergarten classes the daily language arts lesson in either the control (indoor classroom) or nature treatment (outdoor classroom) conditions. Child well-being measures were compared in the two conditions. Teachers’ redirections of child behavior were significantly fewer in the nature condition (t = 2.49, p < 0.05) compared to the control. Also, fewer children were off task in the nature condition on average. There were mixed well-being results; children reported no significance difference in happiness in the two conditions, but teachers reported modest benefit in child well-being in the nature condition. The outdoor classroom is a promising method for increasing nature contact and promoting student well-being.
