Todays students are bombarded with plenty of information and are distracted by technology gadgets (such as smart phones) or suffer from attention deficit disorder [10]. Thus, academic staffs are challenged to capture students attention and to engage them in the didactic process. The paper presents two innovative teaching methods experimented in the seminaries of the Production Planning course that has been taught at the Faculty of Engineering of Lucian Blaga University of Sibiu and the i…

Everyday English at work - does it work? : evaluation of an English language course
2004
Kurssiarvioinnista on tehty paljon tutkimuksia, mutta pääosa alan kirjallisuudesta keskittyy kurssiarviointiin yleensä. Kielikurssien arviointiin keskittyvää kirjallisuutta on huomattavasti vähemmän. Julkaistut tutkimukset on yleensä tehty julkisella sektorilla, ja aiempaa tutkimusta yksityissektorilta on vaikea löytää. Tämä kurssiarviointi arvioi yksityisen koulutuskeskuksen kielikurssia. Tutkielman tarkoituksena on tehdä kurssiarviointi, joka selvittää Itä- Suomessa sijaitsevan kansainvälisen yrityksen henkilöstölleen tarjoaman englannin kurssin tuloksellisuutta. Tutkielma keskittyy oppijoiden ja opettajien tavoitteisiin sekä niiden saavuttamiseen. Myös molempien ryhmien erityisiä tyytyvä…
