Nowa reforma oświaty – szansa czy zagrożenie dla rozwoju szkolnictwa zawodowego?
2019
Wdrażana reforma oświaty w zakresie szkolnictwa zawodowego znajduje się obecnie w początkowym stadium. Zapoczątkowała ją aktualizacja klasyfikacji zawodów oraz wprowadzenie szkół branżowych. Ministerstwo Edukacji Narodowej aktualnie kładzie duży nacisk na rozwój szkolnictwa zawodowego. Zainicjowany proces zmian, m.in. dzięki wprowadzeniu kształcenia dualnego, ma na celu dostosowanie systemu kształcenia zawodowego do potrzeb nowoczesnej gospodarki. Ścisła współpraca szkół zawodowych z lokalnymi przedsiębiorcami ma za zadanie promować szkolnictwo zawodowe i zwiększać jego prestiż w społeczeństwie. Założenia reformy są ze wszech miar słuszne, ale póki co nie znajdują bezpośredniego przełożenia…
Territories and effects on student living conditions : a case study of the Paris student housing scheme
2021
International audience; In a context of competition between student cities, the local level is increasingly involved in improving student living conditions and is working to make their territory more attractive to students. A focus is made on the "Aide à l'Installation dans un Logement pour les Étudiants" (Help for students to settle in) of the city of Paris, a system that aims to promote the social mix of students. A quantitative evaluation of the system was carried out using the theory of capabilities. The program has increased the scope of possibilities by giving students the opportunity to live in Paris. However, the autonomy so sought after by the students is specific in that the finan…

Engineering students' engagement with resources in an online learning environment
2018
International audience; This study explores engineering students' interactions with different resources in an online learning environment. The constituent resources of this environment involve MyMathLab which is an online interactive system for practicing mathematics, the tutorial videos, and the textbook. We conducted a qualitative case study to observe a small group of undergraduate engineering students interacting with the resources in a Calculus course. Employing the documentational approach to didactics, we identified several techniques while participants used resources to practice mathematics in MyMathLab environment. We discuss the pragmatic and epistemic value of the identified tech…

Contemporary conceptions of educating teachers underline the vital role and significance of professional traineeship. Education of teachersis directed not only at eąuipping prospective teachers with general and specialist knowledge, but also at developing competences which are indispensable for everyday didactic-rearing work. Therefore professional traineeship is an important element of educating teachers.
Predictors of performance in engineering mathematics
2018
International audience; Mathematics in university courses was identified as a main obstacle for engineering students in the beginning of their study. Since difficulties with mathematics could lead to a dropout, our research aims to analyse students' profiles referring to individual characteristics that allow identifying possible risks for students' achievement or success in the first year of study. As a first step to identify possibly risky profiles, we started to find possible predictors of students' performance. For this, we give a short overview of the research state and our derived research interest. We discuss theoretical constructs that are possibly crucial characteristics of students…
STUDENTS’ PERSPECTIVES ON THE IMPLEMENTATION OF MUSICAL ACTIVITIES IN PRESCHOOL EDUCATION
2018
Aim. The aim of the study is to find out students’ perspectives on the necessity, readiness and disturbing factors of implementing musical activities in preschool. The theoretical part of the paper describes the particularity of preschool teachers’ work, the children’s interest in musical activities, and the benefits of implementing musical activities in preschool. 
 Method. The empirical study involved 168 students (N=168), of which 132 students (N=132) are already working as preschool teachers in parallel with their study at the university. The study identified three questions: why do preschool teachers use musical activities? What factors prevent a preschool teacher from using music…
Gender and entrepreneurial intentions
2014
Author's version of a chapter in the book: L. Kelley (Ed.), Entrepreneurial women : new management and leadership models. The paper identifies commonalities and differences between women and men in terms of eleven key factors’ impact on the formation of entrepreneurial intentions (EIs) among Norwegian students. The analysis is based on a sample of 1,782 Norwegian students from a variety of faculties and degree programs. A path analysis methodological approach is used, while being based on multiple regressions so as to gradually refine model complexities. Findings show that common to both sexes are the effects of entrepreneurial experience, social norms, self-efficacy, and age. The direct ef…
Student experiences of project-based learning in an analytical chemistry laboratory course in higher education
2020
Abstract This study describes students’ experiences in project-based learning (PjBL) incorporated as part of a revised undergraduate analytical chemistry laboratory course. We examined which phases were the easiest as well as the most challenging and what student skills developed during the research project. The research data were collected between 2016 and 2018 via two questionnaires. They were analyzed both quantitatively and qualitatively. One questionnaire focused on the whole course (in 2016–2018, n = 127) of which only the answers on the research project questions were analyzed. The other questionnaire focused on only the research project (in 2018, n = 42). Based on the results of our…
The power of assessment: What (dis)empowers students in their EFL assessment in a Finnish upper secondary school?
2017
Assessment wields a great deal of power over students. Yet, there is little research on how students, either in general or as individuals, experience assessment. Therefore, this study aimed to explore what disempowers or empowers students in EFL assessment. A total of 146 students from one Finnish upper secondary school answered a questionnaire on assessment and feedback in their EFL studies. The study utilises mixed methods: primarily, the questionnaire data was analysed quantitatively (principal component analysis, step-wise regression analysis), secondarily, qualitative data and analysis were also used. The analyses showed that students reacted to assessment in highly individual ways. Wh…
