Innovare la didattica all’Università: uno strumento di riflessione per i docenti
2020
Per realizzare una didattica universitaria efficace sono necessarie alcune caratteristiche personali del docente come l’impegno, la motivazione e la conoscenza di metodologie e strumenti di valutazione adeguati. Riteniamo che per avviare la formazione dei docenti universitari sia necessario avere un quadro chiaro delle loro conoscenze didattiche e docimologiche. In questa ricerca presentiamo uno strumento che abbiamo sottoposto inizialmente a 30 docenti universitari di area pedagogico- didattica di vari atenei italiani e che successivamente, tenendo conto dei suggerimenti ricevuti, abbiamo somministrato ad un campione di 311 docenti dell’Ateneo Palermitano di tutti i dipartimenti e di quasi…
A Qualitative Study on the Categorisation and Prioritisation of Digital Competencies and Attitudes for Managers and Employees
2021
Digital transformation is a mega-trend and is perceived by many companies as an opportunity to remain competitive. The digital competencies and digital mindset of managers and employees play an important role. Without new competencies and changed attitudes, the transformation cannot be driven forward. Research on digital transformation competencies in the field of companies is limited and little evidence exists on which digital competencies, and skills are particularly important for companies. In this study, a systematic literature review was used to identify digital competencies and attitudes and classify them into six categories. With a focus group discussion, four digitalisation experts …
Digitaalisen koealustan pilotointi Yleisissä kielitutkinnoissa
2019
Yleiset kielitutkinnot ovat siirtymässä asteittain digitaaliseen muotoon. Tässä artikkelissa esitellään lyhyesti tätä muutosprosessia sekä kerrotaan maahanmuuttajille järjestetystä digitaalisen koealustan pilotoinnista ja sen tuloksista. Pilotti toteutettiin Lahdessa kotoutumiskoulutukseen osallistuvien maahanmuuttajien kielitaidon testauksella. Heidän kielitaitonsa vaihteli kielten yleiseurooppalaisen viitekehyksen tasojen A1 ja B1 välillä. Pilotissa testattiin digitaalisen alustan toimintaa ja käytettävyyttä koulutustaustaltaan hyvin heterogeenisella osallistujajoukolla. Pilotissa haluttiin myös selvittää, vaikuttaako koneella kirjoittaminen kirjoitusnopeuteen ja tuotoksen pituuteen S2-op…
Drāmas paņēmieni angļu valodas runāšanas trauksmes mazināšanai 6. klasē
2016
Lielākā daļa cilvēku, kuri mācās angļu valodu kā svešvalodu, saskaras ar angļu valodas runāšanas trauksmi. Tā negatīvi ietekmē gan skolēnu sniegumu, gan attieksmi. Pētījums tika izstrādāts ar mērķi pārbaudīt, kā drāmas paņēmieni samazināja skolēnu angļu valodas runāšanas trauksmi 6.klasē. Angļu valodas stundās 6.klasē tika izmantotas dažādas drāmas aktivitātes. Darbā tika lietotas tādas datu vākšanas metodes kā diagnosticējošs tests (pirms un pēc drāmas paņēmienu ieviešanas), intervija, novērošana un atgriezeniskā saite. Diagnosticējošā testa rezultāti norādīja, ka skolēni saskārās ar angļu valodas runāšanas trauksmes pazīmēm. Drāmas paņēmienu izmantojums palielināja skolēnu aktivitāti angļ…

Phenomenological research design, one of the qualitative research methods, was used in this research in which the experiences of teacher candidates regarding the eTwinning project were analyzed. The focus of the transnational collaboration was that student teachers from different cultures use eTwinning’s secure and safe digital platform, Twinspace, to contribute to their c…
Digital Stories with Children: Examining Digital Storytelling as a Pedagogical Process in ECEC
2020
Modern digital technologies have become common in educational settings of all levels. This has made the use of digital storytelling (DST) more applicable in early childhood education and care (ECEC). This paper examines the implementation of DST, aiming to answer the following questions: 1) How to support children’s active participation throughout the DST process in ECEC, and 2) how do 21st century skills manifest in the DST process? The study was conducted between 2017 and 2018, when two cycles of DST projects were implemented in four Finnish ECEC centres as part of a European project. The data consist of interviews with educators (N=15) and children (N=51), as well as documentation of the…
The Role of Family on Pathways to Acquiring Early Reading Skills In Lusaka’s Low-Income Communities
2014
This paper reports findings from the study that examined the role of family in children’s acquisition of early reading skills. We recruited 72 first-grade learners and their parents from low-income Zambian families for the study. In response to a home literacy questionnaire, parents reported on their reading attitudes and family literacy environment. Children’s early reading skills were assessed using two early reading tests (orthographic awareness and decoding competence), both conducted at two different points during the year. Regression analyses of pretest and gain scores revealed that parental reading attitude and family literacy environment significantly predicted early reading skills.…
Spatial Ability and Learning to Program
2008
Results in introductory computer programming modules are often disappointing, and various individual differences have been found to be relevant. This paper reviews work in this area, with particular reference to the effect of a student’s spatial ability. Data is presented on a cohort of 49 students enrolled on an MSc in Information Technology course at a university in the UK. A measure was taken of their mental rotation ability, and a questionnaire administered that focused on their previous academic experience, and expectations relating to the introductory computer programming module they were studying. The results showed a positive correlation between mental rotation ability and success i…
Cognitive skills among Nepalese child labourers
2001
The cognitive skills of 61 Nepalese 10-14-year-old working children with at least 2 years working experience (WE) were compared to two groups of children, beginners (N = 29) with less than 1 year of WE and a school group (N = 104) matched for age and ethnic background. All the children (N = 194) were tested by the Bender test, WISC-R for Arithmetic, Digit Span, and the Word Fluency test. The main results showed that the school group was better in all the cognitive tests, except for Digit Span Backwards, where the working group had the highest average score. The second main finding shows no major differences in cognitive skills between the beginner and working groups. However, the work exper…
