Collaborative guessing game for EFL learning with kinesthetic recognition

Guessing games combined with innovative educational technology have hardly ever been adapted to English as a foreign language (EFL) learning. This study aims to claim that collaborative guessing games with physical movement have full potential to facilitate English learning of adolescent EFL learners. To this end, based on the cognitive theory of multimedia learning (CTML) proposed by Mayer (2006), the authors have extended the CTML model with collaboration mechanisms and proposed the collaborative CTML. In this study, a collaborative kinesthetic guessing game system (CKGG) was developed for the purpose of implementing English learning with guessing games and physical movement. When playing the games, learners in the experimental group were further divided into Player and Helper to give them opportunities to learn collaboratively while learners in the control group were asked to go through the whole game on their own. Helper was allowed to give textual hints and authentic pictorial hints to Player and Player was asked to answer the questions using physical movements and pronouncing the target English. Furthermore, this study prepared learners with two learning stages: one is Stage 1 where learners used teacher-designed materials for their learning, and another one is Stage 2 where learners used learner-designed materials for their learning. The experimental results show that the experimental group significantly outperformed the control group in terms of learning achievement.

Case–Study as One of the Innovative Educational Technologies and Its Use in Biology Classes

Today, the Ukrainian education system is undergoing important large-scale transformations. Students of modern schools are required, as the main result of education, to master a set of universal learning activities that allow them to set and solve the most important life tasks that they may face directly in adult life. So, for example, in relation to different sections of biology, students must understand: what the subject teaches them, why they need biology, how the studied concepts are related to practical tasks and everyday life.
 In this regard, a new approach to the construction of the content of education, as well as to the use of modern educational technologies of learning, is envisaged. As you know, one of such effective technologies is life-situational learning using the case-study method. Active use of case-study in education began relatively recently, and now this approach has become one of the most effective learning technologies. This method confirms the didactic significance and relevance of the use of case technology in the process of teaching biology as an effective means of increasing students' biological knowledge. Teachers highlight a number of advantages of the case-study compared to traditional teaching methods: practical orientation, interactive format, development of soft skills of students. Scientists have developed several classifications of cases. But, despite the variety of cases, they all have a typical structure, which includes: a plot part, a methodological part, and an informational part.
 The article examines the features of the case-study and the possibilities of its application at biology lessons. Samples of cases from the "Human Anatomy" course are also offered.

THE CONCEIVE DESIGN IMPLEMENT OPERATE (CDIO) INITIATIVE - AN ENGINEERING PEDAGOGY APPLIED TO THE EDUCATION OF MARITIME ENGINEERS

The Conceive Design Implement Operate (CDIO) initiative is an innovative engineering education framework aiming to produce industry-ready graduates. Over the past two decades, the approach has been increasingly popular, particularly in the mechanical engineering field, thanks to its practical approach and outcome-based assessments. However, the CDIO approach remains absent from the pedagogical tools employed in marine engineering education curricula. This paper argues that, although unrecognized as such, modern marine engineering courses have been employing an approach akin to that of the CDIO initiative. Four international case studies, in both undergraduate and postgraduate higher education, are employed to demonstrate that the marine engineering courses under consideration indeed utilize the CDIO approach to engineering education. Furthermore, this paper identifies the CDIO initiative as a relevant pedagogy for the development of novel marine engineering courses and activities. It is anticipated that this first recognition of the use of the CDIO initiative in marine engineering education will contribute to formalizing the implementation of the CDIO initiative in this field, as well as enable greater synergies between the various disciplines of engineering education.
