Mācību vārdnīcas kā skolotāja darba resursi
2016
Bakalaura darbā ar tēmu „Mācību vārdnīca kā skolotāja darba resursi’’, tiek pētītas divas mācību vārdnīcas - Longman Learner’ Dictionary of Contemporary English un Macmillan English Dictionary for Advanced Students. Šī darba mērķis ir pētīt izvēlētās mācību vārdnīcas, kā skolotāja resursus uzdevumu izstrādē četrām valodas prasmēm. Darba procesā izveidojas trīs galvenās nodaļas, un pirmā nodaļa atbild par teorētisko fonu, kurā tiek apkopota informācija par mācīšanas materiāliem, precīzāk, par vārdu krājuma mācīšanas materiāliem un metodēm, tāpat arī tiek analizētas četras valodas prasmes lasīšana, rakstīšana, runāšana un klausīšanās. Šī informācija tiek arī tālāk pielietota praktiskajā daļā.…
Student Partners in Task Design in a computer medium to promote Foundation students' learning of mathematics
2018
International audience; A team consisting of three mathematics education teacher-researchers, four former Foundation students (called Student Partners, SPs), and two analytic assistants worked together to produce mathematical tasks in a computer medium for the mathematical learning of current Foundation students (FSs). We have explored the collaboration between the SPs and researchers, the processes and outcomes of task design, and the contribution of the collaboration to tutorial teaching of FSs. We seek insight into the learning of all concerned of mathematics, mathematics teaching, task design and personal-professional development. The project is ongoing. Here we introduce the project an…
Task design for Engineering Mathematics: process, principles and products
2018
International audience; We present and analyse principles and process employed at the Danish Technical University to use authentic problems from engineering (APE) in a first year mathematics course, along with some of the products (actual student assignments).
Tasks and Digital Tools
2016
International audience; This chapter considers scholastic tasks with digital tools. The first two sections consider tasks in ‘ordinary’ classrooms (tasks for learning) and issues relating to tasks using mathematical software. The first section presents examples of tasks with digital tools to highlight potential problems and opportunities for learning. The second section considers issues arising from the literature on tasks design with and without digital tools. The final section looks at task-tool issues in larger-than-the-individual classroom research and in assessment; it also comments of avenues for further development
“Learning from real life and not books”: A gamified approach to Business English task design in transatlantic telecollaboration
2017
This paper deals with task design in the context of a telecollaboration project which was carried out in a Business English course among students from Spain and the United States. The goal was to provide students with opportunities to develop linguistic, intercultural and digital competences by interacting and collaborating online with native speakers of the target language. A task-based approach was adopted and enriched by gamification, the different tasks being designed with a view towards engaging students intrinsically in the learning process. This was achieved by means of the adoption of gamification strategies and techniques such as the use of points, performance graphs, quests, avata…
