The aim of this thesis was the conceptual design and structured evaluation of a newly developed learning/teaching concept for the digital transformation of medicine, with a special focus on the influence of surgical teaching.Thirty-five students participated in three courses of the blended learning curriculum "…
Demands and Challenges : Experiences of Ethiopian Rural School Teachers

2021
Izglītības procesa dažādošanai un daudzveidīgu mācību metožu realizēšanai, skolotājiem gan mācību plānā, gan ārpus klašu nodarbībās ir jāiekļauj plaša spektra aktivitātes. Pieredze norāda, ka runas prasmes ir viens no svarīgākajiem valodas aspektiem, kura mācīšana jāiekļauj Angļu kā svešvalodas stundās. Ņemot vērā, ka laikā, kad tiek izstrādāts šis diplomdarbs, Latvijā tiek realizēta izglītības sistēmas reforma, tāpēc skolēnu individuālās prezentēšanas, argumentēšanas un publiskās runas spējas ir īpaši aktuālas ik vienam angļu valodas skolotājam. Visas šīs prasmes ir iespējams apvienot un attīstīt, izmantojot apvienojošu mācību metodi: debatēšanu. Šī diplomdarba mērķis ir izpētīt, kā debašu…
