A Blended Learning Solution and the Impacts on Attendance and Learning Outcomes

2011

Blended learning based on lecture videos and face-to-face teaching provides good opportunities for students for participation in education, regardless of time or place. The article describes a blended learning solution that is based on face-to-face teaching and the use of streaming lecture videos as it has developed in connection with master studies in mathematical information technology. The particular focus of this article is on the use of lecture videos and the impacts of blended learning on participation in education and on learning outcomes. According to the results, lecture videos have become very popular among students. Moreover the use of lecture videos increases participation activ…

UPBRINGING AND LEARNING UNITY AS A SOURCE FOR DEVELOPING TEACHERS' EMOTIONAL RESPONSIVENESS

2020

In the second half of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century, the scientific research in Europe started focusing more on the problems of upbringing. Pedagogical science was no exception, and also started raising questions regarding upbringing including both the teaching/learning and the upbringing/self-education processes in pedagogical activities and in the education system as a whole. The united way in which the teaching/learning, upbringing/self-education work is conducted at educational institutions reflects the professionalism of the teacher. The study reveals the necessity and importance of upbringing and unity in teaching work for the pedagogical processes of the 21st…

Attālināts darbs izglītības iestāžu darbības pilnveidošanai

2022

Maģistra darba “Attālinātais darbs izglītības iestāžu darbības pilnveidošanai” mērķis ir izstrādāt ieteikumus Latvijas skolām attālinātā darba izmantošanai skolu darbības pilnveidošanai ikdienas darbā un krīzes apstākļos. Maģistra darbā tiek aktualizēta pandēmijas laika pieredze izglītības iestāžu darbā. Empīriskā pētījuma ietvaros, intervējot 11 Latvijas izglītības iestāžu vadības pārstāvjus, atklāti labās prakses piemēri attālinātam darbam izglītības iestādēs. Secināts, ka attālināts darbs ir veiksmīgi izmantojams turpmākā skolu darbībā, un, balstoties teorijas un empīriskajā pētījuma daļā, izveidoti ieteikumi attālināta darba izmantošanai Latvijas skolu darbības pilnveidošanai.

Application of a Knowledge Discovery Process to Study Instances of Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problems

2020

Vehicle Routing Problems (VRP) are computationally challenging, constrained optimization problems, which have central role in logistics management. Usually different solvers are being developed and applied for different kind of problems. However, if descriptive and general features could be extracted to describe such problems and their solution attempts, then one could apply data mining and machine learning methods in order to discover general knowledge on such problems. The aim then would be to improve understanding of the most important characteristics of VRPs from both efficient solution and utilization points of view. The purpose of this article is to address these challenges by proposi…

Learning Design for Future Higher Education – Insights From the Time of COVID-19

2021

The COVID-19 pandemic brought many challenges in higher education. All teaching and learning activities were moved online. Universities had to provide adapted solutions to facilitate learning and maintain students’ engagement. Online education implies creating new learning environments with the help of digital technologies. Beyond the process of acquisition of knowledge, teachers needed to facilitate cooperative learning, build positive relations, and reduce negative emotions. We provide some expert insights based on empirical observations on teaching and assessment practices connected with psychology models applied in education. The aim of the paper is to formulate specific learning design…

Learning logs in foreign language study: Student views on their usefulness for learner autonomy

2017

Se han empleado diarios en una variedad de contextos de aprendizaje. Para realizar un diario en una clase de idioma extranjero, los alumnos anotan las actividades que realizan para estudiar, practicar, y/o mejorar su capacidad en la lengua meta. En el caso de un grado en Lenguas Modernas y Traducción ofertado en una universidad en el centro peninsular, 76 estudiantes tuvieron la opción de hacer un diario, un resumen semanal o un informe semanal acerca de sus búsquedas bibliográficas en cuanto a estrategias de aprendizaje. El presente artículo explica esas opciones e informa sobre las elecciones de los estudiantes, sus opiniones acerca de la utilidad de la actividad en general y sus impresio…

La costruzione di tre casi-problema per la promozione della capacità di problem-solving negli studenti universitari

2009

L''articolo presenta parte dei risultati di una ricerca svolta sulla didattica universitaria nell''ambito del progetto "Competenze metacognitive e processi di autovalutazione nel blended e-learning con metodologie di apprendimento cooperativo per una formazione universitaria personalizzata"(PRIN 2006). Nel contributo si presentano le modalità di costruzione e le finalità di tre casi-problema proposti agli studenti universitari. Nell''ambito della ricerca si è adottata la metodologia dello studio di caso che si è configurato come un metodo di lavoro particolarmente efficace per promuovere negli studenti la capacità di problem solving. Nell''articolo si evidenziano gli aspetti più significati…

Learning strategies in excellent and average university students. Their evolution over the first year of the career

2012

The aim of this paper was to analyze the evolution of learning strategies of two groups of students, excellent and average, from 11 degrees of the UPV (Valencia/Spain) in their freshman year. We used the CEVEAPEU questionnaire. The results confirmed the availability of better strategies of excellent students and also the existence of evolutionary patterns in which affective-emotional strategies decrease, such as value of the task or internal attributions, and that others increase, such as extrinsic motivation and external attributions. It seems that the student does not meet your expectations in the new context and professors have important responsibilities. El objetivo de este trabajo era …

Estimating Tree Health Decline Caused by Ips typographus L. from UAS RGB Images Using a Deep One-Stage Object Detection Neural Network

2022

Various biotic and abiotic stresses are causing decline in forest health globally. Presently, one of the major biotic stress agents in Europe is the European spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus L.) which is increasingly causing widespread tree mortality in northern latitudes as a consequence of the warming climate. Remote sensing using unoccupied aerial systems (UAS) together with evolving machine learning techniques provide a powerful tool for fast-response monitoring of forest health. The aim of this study was to investigate the performance of a deep one-stage object detection neural network in the detection of damage by I. typographus in Norway spruce trees using UAS RGB images. A Scaled…
