Is Argumentative Driven Inquiry (Adi) the Future of Science Classroom?

Author(s): James Hollenbeck,Michell Evans / Language(s): English Issue: 3/2020

Argumentative Driven Inquiry (ADI) is a type of problem-based learning (PBL) that allows students to explore the scientific world around them. The ADI format allows students to take ownership of their scientific exploration by allowing the students to create their labs. It is believed that by allowing the students to create their method of exploration they will learn the whole process of the scientific method not just replicating a cookie-cutter lab. This research will look deeper into the ADI method and test its effectiveness on high school Biology students in three senior high schools in southern Indiana. Is ADI the future of science classrooms or is the current method of “cookie-cutter” labs better for students?

Science Fiction to Promote Science: Learning Literacy and Social Understanding

Author(s): James Hollenbeck / Language(s): English Issue: 3/2020

The use of science fiction will open new ways of learning and understanding science. Science fiction has long been discussed as a way to get students and adults alike more interested in science; – literary works could be successfully used to communicate science not only to children or scholars but also to the general public. Research and practical application in the classroom has found that, after reading science fiction stories and watching science fiction entertainment, there was a significant positive effect on the understanding of students who do not study advanced science. Using science fiction helps students to link literacy and science. Science fiction was found to enrich the science content and the abstract found in traditional science textbooks.

Ученици и учители: за мотивацията на учениците да учат химия в училище

Author(s): Vesela Todorova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 3/2020

The attitude to a subject and the desire to study depends on a large extent on the students‘ motivation. The characteristics of learning environment, teaching methods and teachers’ attitude towards students in the classroom are among the most studied factors for students’ learning motivation in various subjects. There is relatively little research in the field of science education. The article presents the results of students’ and teachers’ research on influence of the learning environment created by the teacher on students’ motivation to learn chemistry. The research methods are a survey of 440 students and 17 chemistry teachers, and targeted observation of eight teachers in a class. According to the students, the studied aspects of learning environment have an impact on their motivation. The results of surveys and observations in the classroom show that the actions and behavior of teachers affect the motivation of students, but compared to students, teachers often overestimate the impact of the classroom conditions they have created. The study confirms the assumption that the learning environment and the teacher are among the most important factors for increasing chemistry-learning motivation. Another important motivational factor that stimulate chemistry learning is the future career choices young people make.

Practical and theoretical aspects regarding the process of didactics. Subjective evaluation

Author(s): Aurica SOFIAN / Language(s): English Issue: 3/2015

In this paper, we would like to outline the characteristics of the didactic process based on the methods of subjective evaluation. The issue of didactic evaluation is an important approach within the educational process, which must fall within the limits of educational objectivity and responsibility. According to specific literature, the term "evaluation" refers to a series of operations of obtaining information and useful ideas regarding the students’ level of training and understanding, since "to evaluate" is synonymous with "to determine" the effects of an action for them to be evaluated in the light of the objectives pursued. Therefore, this paper will emphasize the theoretical aspects of the didactic process on the one hand and on the other hand the practical aspects of this process, which is thus materialized through subjective evaluation.

Author(s): Simina Anton / Language(s): English Issue: 9/2018

The behaviours regarding nutrition and physical activity must be cultivated through education, as early as possible. Children who learn since childhood to eat breakfast daily, to eat fruits and vegetables, to exercise, to value their health, will practice these skills in adult life and will educate their children as well. The main source regarding the dietary and physical activity behaviours of children and teenagers in our country is represented by the HBSC study (Health behaviour in school-aged children). Quality nutrition is essential for reducing childhood illnesses, promoting optimum health and preventing chronic diseases in the future of the adult. Eating habits are formed in childhood and will last for a lifetime, so it is important to intervene as soon as possible in the community.(Eşi, 2014)

METHODS OF TEACHING GERMAN AS FOREIGN LANGUAGE TO ROMANIAN STUDENTS

Author(s): Georgiana Obadă,Nicoleta SFINȚIȚCHI / Language(s): English Issue: 11/2019

The world is a puzzle constructed of a variety of different language speaking nations, and the individuals’ multilingualism leads to a better communication and cooperation between them. Speaking many languages represents a beneficial method for the process of cognitive development. Moreover, speaking many languages improves the efficiency of the cognitive processes and stimulates the memory; the brain becomes more active, thus preventing degradation by permanently searching for the meaning of and the links between words. Considering the actual requests imposed by the globalization of societies, speaking foreign languages became essential in establishing good social, political and economic relationships with other citizens. Studying, researching, cultural development or even building a career becomes more facile when the linguistic baggage carries more languages. Another argument is favored by scientists’ research who demonstrated that studying a foreign language helps people having more knowledge about their native language because it determines them analyze and understand the previously perceived linguistic phenomena.
