Exploring the determinants of student learning style compatibility with offline/online learning methods for management courses in India

Every student is unique and possesses a different learning style to collect, store and retrieve the information stored in his or her mind. Students usually taking preparing notes, reading different study materials, using different sources to gather information, and sometimes using graphs, diagrams, flow charts, etc. to develop understanding. Over the years, a paradigm shift has taken place from teaching to learning and various researchers have contributed the development of teaching learning processes and methods that not only engage students but also develop better understanding of subject matter. As each subject is different, it requires a different style of teaching method, just as each learner is different; a specific method used for certain subjects may be suitable for one but not for others. With the advancement of technology, online learning provides sophisticated learning environment, refined course content, scientific teaching methodology, and committed participants, well equipped subject experts, virtual course instructors, and so forth. Although researchers have conducted studies in order to understand why no learning style fits all students, the way students learn and store information. Still, the adoption rate of online courses is discouraging, despite the various benefits online students enjoy. The objective of this article is to explore the determining factors responsible for evaluating the individual learning style of student and their compatibility with learning methods, either offline or online. The researcher has used a case study of 852 students studying in Medi-Caps University, Indore. Responses were collected through structured interviews and the performance of students at the end of the exams. This article tries to address the issue of quality education, and provide the self evaluating technique to determine the method of learning, management course with compatibility of individual learning style.

A Model of E-learning readiness of universities in the face of Corvid 19 disease (Case: University of Tehran)

The present study aimed at designing a model for E-learning readiness of the University of Tehran in the face of Covid 19 disease. This study is applied and has been done by phenomenological method and answering an Open Answer Questionnaire from 603 faculty members among 36 faculties of the University of Tehran by sending e-mails and also by voice and video calls. Its validity was assessed by the participants through three measures and through review. A model consisting of 8 sub-elements with inductive content analysis and open coding and main categorization was introduced; Development of teaching-learning processes, time management, enrichment of educational content, continuity of education, establishment of educational justice, promotion of social responsibility of the university, continuation and development of e-learning and teaching, improving classroom supervision and evaluation. In other words, the development of e-learning as a new approach in higher education requires the creation of four socio-cultural readiness, pedagogical readiness, organizational readiness and technological readiness in conjunction with the revised Bloom model; The combination of these elements in the current situation of universities can be considered as a strategy for learning that is necessary for the continuous improvement of e-learning during the outbreak of Covid 19 pandemic. Therefore, the suggestions of this research can be applied to universities.

Active Teaching-Learning Strategies for Family Medicine Preceptors in the EURACT

Abstract: Introduction: The Family Doctor (FD), whose scope of action is Primary Health Care (PHC), is a professional trained to care for people, their families, and communities. The best FD training should be performed through Medical Residency Programs in Family Medicine (MRPFM), an in-service teaching field where a preceptor, also a FD, accompanies the resident. A pedagogically well-trained preceptor can work in the learning process of young doctors, who in turn are able to develop the necessary skills to work as a future FD. Active Learning Methodologies (ALM) are based on critical pedagogy and work with problems for the development of teaching-learning processes. They seek the theory from the practice, thus preparing the students to become aware of their environment and act aiming at its transformation. ALMs are achieved in the pedagogical processes through Active Teaching-Learning Strategies (ATLS), which are effective pedagogical resources used by the preceptors in the residents’ daily training. They can be divided into two groups: Active Teaching-Learning Dynamics and Active Teaching Actions. This article reports on the effects of a training course for Family Medicine preceptors on the use of Active Teaching-Learning Dynamics and Active Teaching Actions. Method: Qualitative comparative case study using sociodemographic survey, individual semi structured interview and field notes. The information was examined under content analysis, having participated ten preceptors from four MRPFM from the state of São Paulo, Brazil (half having attended the Leonardo EURACT level 1 course and half not having done so). Results: Those preceptors who attended the course expressed having more knowledge and use of Active Teaching-Learning Strategies, specifically of Active Teaching-Learning Dynamics and Active Teaching Actions. Conclusions: It was observed that the Leonardo EURACT level 1 teaching technology modifies the teaching practice of those who took the course, as they demonstrate a greater use and domain of its tools in their pedagogical practice. Moreover, the course allows a greater understanding of the presented dynamics and activities, thus promoting the residents’ critical learning and encouraging autonomy.

Escenas de cine y televisión, un recurso didáctico para la enseñanza-aprendizaje de las matemáticas

Cinema and television are very interesting didactic resources for the design and development of teaching-learning processes. This work presents a project to encourage the use of film and television scenes in the classes of mathematics, in this project participated students of the Degree in Primary Teacher. The project had a great acceptance on the part of the students, who considered it very motivating and useful for their professional future. As a result of the project, a “scene bank” of film and television series related, more or less explicitly, with mathematics was created and list of recommendations were agreed for his utilization in the classes of mathematics.

A Qualitative Investigation on the Views of School Principals and Teachers about Organizational Justice in Evaluation Process

Evaluation which is an important factor during the development of teaching-learning process is providing students a quality education while it offers teachers the opportunity of improving themselves. The fairness of the evaluation that affects these two process significantly increases organizational efficiency like organizational productivity, organizational commitment and job satisfaction. In this study, administrators' and teachers’ perceptions related to organizational justice in evaluation process in Aydin Anatolian High Schools were examined. The research was designed as a qualitative study and has been performed through interviews. The data were gathered from 7 administrators and 14 teachers by semi structured interview method. Six questions were asked to administrators related to organizational justice in evaluation process. Content and descriptive analysis techniques were used to analyze the data. According to findings, school administrators perceive the concept of organizational justice in evaluation process as “giving employees what they deserve in the organization, being at an equal distance to all, being fair in distribution of courses and behaving according to the legislation”. The teachers at Anatolian high schools define the justice as “equality, fairness, valuing according to efforts and quality of teachers”. The administrators emphasize that they are fair regarding the distribution of the courses. However, it is referred from the research that administrators are not fair with teachers from the point of distributive justice in evaluation process. It is seen that the perception of teachers related to the organizational justice is not as totally fair. The common point that both administrators and teachers have is necessity of the standard criteria in evaluation process.

Como parte del diagnóstico, se aplicaron métodos e instrumentos que permitieron constatar la realidad del actuar de los docentes de las zonas rurales del Perú en el desempeño del proceso de enseñanza–aprendizaje. La sistematización de los referentes científicos, teóricos y metodológicos permitió triangular los datos y como conclusión esencial, diseñar un programa de aprendizaje basado en el coaching para fortalecer el profesionalismo del docente desde la autorreflexión sobre su desempeño en la práctica pedagógica del aula.

<b>Ambientes inclusivo e exclusivo no processo ensino-aprendizagem de pessoas com deficiência mental em aulas de educação física</b>

É questão de interesse no cenário educacional mundial avançar no dilema estabelecido acerca das implicações da organização de ambientes inclusivo (que propõem o atendimento simultâneo de alunos com e sem deficiência) e exclusivo(composto apenas por alunos com algum tipo de deficiência) no desenvolvimento de processos ensino-aprendizagem. Desse modo, o presente estudo objetivou analisar o processo ensino-aprendizagem, em aulas de Educação Física, de movimentos básicos do Tae-Kwon-Do em ambientes exclusivo e inclusivo de atendimento a alunos que apresentam deficiência mental. Participaram da pesquisa descritiva seis alunos de uma escola especial com deficiência mental e 26 alunos de uma escola regular. Ao longo do primeiro semestre letivo de 2007, os alunos com deficiência mental foram submetidos a aulas alternadas em ambiente exclusivo e inclusivo. Os resultados encontrados indicam não haver diferença na resposta motora dos alunos da escola especial, quer no ambiente exclusivo quer no ambiente inclusivo. Mais do que discutir se o atendimento educacional de alunos com deficiência mental deve ocorrer em ambiente inclusivo ou exclusivo, importa aprimorar a organização do ambiente de aprendizagem para que eles realmente aprendam.
