Author(s): Ihor Romanyshyn / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The article highlights the essentials of the PRESETT reform project in Ukraine, key findings of the Baseline Study with a focus on assessment, the formative and summative assessments in the new PRESETT curriculum and the ways assessment is and can be used for improving student teachers’ learning. The author mostly draws on the material worked out by the project team. Based on the findings and recommendations of the Baseline Study the project team has developed new ways of assessing progress and achievement within the Methodology Curriculum of the PRESETT Bachelor’s programme. The assessment follows the principles of transparency, variety and balance, link to outcomes, manageability for methodology teachers and progression over the programme. In the new curriculum, continuous assessment is both formative and summative assessment, and the final assessment is summative. A special focus is given on the latest results of the piloting of the new curriculum carried out at Vasyl Stefanyk Precarpathian National University. The piloting of Modules 1, 2 and 3 of the curriculum has demonstrated that student teachers are efficient users of such types of continuous assessment as presentation and quiz, while they still need to improve reflective writing and personal account. The research offers classroom strategies that are effective in promoting formative assessment practice – the use of questioning, student thoughtful reflection, effective teacher feedback, peer feedback, student self-assessment, redrafting of the work, and the formative use of summative assessment. It also supports the idea that the following techniques/tools associated with formative assessment – checklist, classroom journal, conferencing, discussion, examples of good work, learning diary/log, open-ended questions, rubrics and sharing assessment criteria – can help students to learn more effectively.

PARTICULARITĂȚI ALE PREOCUPĂRII PENTRU STUDIU ÎN RÂNDUL ADOLESCENȚILOR

Author(s): Traian Hoidrag / Language(s): Romanian Publication Year: 0

Preoccupation for study among adolescents is an accepted behavior, desired and even stimulated by society, whether we are referring to parents or teachers. The literature mentions multiple positive effects of involvement in the study, such as the development of memory skills, concentration, decision making and reasoning, a psychological well-being, by facilitating increased self-esteem, awareness, tolerance of rules and intellectual effort, and socially maximizes the chances of continuing studies at a reputable university or finding a better-rated job in the future. These reasons, as well as many others, still maintain this preoccupation for study among the current generation of teenagers. At the same time, there is the opinion that this preoccupation for the study, if on the one hand exceeds a certain intensity and frequency, and on the other hand if it meets certain criteria (eg: prioritizing the study over other activities, experiencing tolerance, withdrawal, intra- and interpersonal conflicts, and psycho-emotional problems) specific to addictive behaviors, would be an addiction. Therefore, paying attention to this type of behavior in adolescents, from parents and teachers, would help to identify and treat such an addiction early and prevent the occurrence of possible psychological, social and educational problems

„DEZVOLTAREA MULTILATERALĂ” ȘI „FORMAREA OMULUI NOU” ÎN ROMÂNIA SOCIALISTĂ

Author(s): Alina Ilinca,Liviu-Marius Bejenaru / Language(s): Romanian Publication Year: 0

"For someone to acquire skill and ability in a particular branch of activity, thus becoming a labor force" – said Karl Marx in Capital – "education is necessary", adding that the communist order will ensure favorable social conditions for the individual qualities of to every man not to be stifled, but to be revealed and developed through education. The expression "multilateral development", applied to both the individual and society, has become one of the most common in Marxist pedagogy or Marxist-inspired theory. The communication aims to present the "multilateral development" and "formation of the new man" during the regime of Nicolae Ceausescu, being composed of two parts. In the first part, the communication will deal with the Marxist-Leninist conception of multilateral education, which was necessary and possible in mass proportion only in the conditions of socialist and communist society. The second part will contain the conception of the Romanian Communist Party about the "multilaterally developed socialist society" and the "multilaterally developed personality" which was to be characterized by "creative spirit and the tendency towards self-improvement and self-improvement". The conclusions will aim at the fact that, in the case of communist regimes, "multilateral development" was only an ideological fiction, because, unlike the liberal regimes, in which education means emancipation and permanent creation, communist education was organized to ensure the strength of work distributed according to socialist planning, the regime emphasizing social and cultural homogenization, in order to create a "working class culture".

POTENȚIALUL CREATOR AL SUPRADOTAȚILOR

Author(s): Marilena Doncean / Language(s): Romanian Publication Year: 0

International studies of early maturity are today at an advanced stage of research and practical application, in the form of applied methodological programs and strategies, educational and cultural policy approaches. Psycho-pedagogical care for gifted children requires a number of conceptual clarifications such as the identification of overadotation, the typical reactions of parents and teachers to the atypical responses of highly gifted children, personalized and differentiated educational pathways, the special training of teachers for the educational and extra-school activation of highly gifted students. An equally important chapter is that of the critical aspects of the emotional development of highly gifted children. The conceptual boundaries in this area are not exactly easy. There are distinctions between the concepts of talent, precociousness, overdose and geniality, each highlighting specific features. Thus, the success of an educational program depends to a large extent on the activities of teachers. Teachers without special training in the training of highly gifted students sometimes show disinterested and even hostile toward such students. Instead, teachers who have been specially trained and experienced with highly gifted students tend to be enthusiastic and show interest in working with them (Feldhusen and Hansen, 1988). The countries that stand out through various research and analyze the different aspects of the education of highly gifted students are also those that have been most concerned with the training of specialists in various fields.

Статистическото мислене – средство за по-добра видимост в информационната мъгла

Author(s): Margarita Lambova / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

Reasoning is presented related to the need to rethink statistics education in order to create an opportunity to form statistical thinking as a mandatory element of the thought process of a free and informed person and thus overcome the problem of "numerical blindness" in society. It is concluded that the main reason preventing the creation of skills that can be qualified as statistical thinking is the patterning of statistics education by teaching ready-made "recipes" for the mechanical application of statistical methods "piecemeal", detached from the requirements and the logic of statistical methodology.

MORALITATEA PROFESORULUI – REVENDICARE IMPERATIVĂ RECURENTĂ

Author(s): Liliana Stan / Language(s): Romanian Publication Year: 0

Development of the educational activity involves a highly qualified person to exercise the didactic role. Therefore the profile of skills to be tested by the person undertaking the didactic role owns a privileged position within analyses dedicated to formative activity. Particularly, desirable qualities to give a content to the moral profile of the professor come both from regulatory documents, such as specific ethical or deontological codes, and other regulatory systems. The study herein emphasizes the existence of a multitude of non – ethical frameworks in relation with rules and regulations on professor’s activity and it advances an analysis/ exemplification for two current judicial benchmarks in Romania (Labour Code and Law of Education) in terms of the moral dimension of their consubstantial stipulations. Keywords: morality, ethical code, regulatory system, law.

CĂTRE UN MODEL BAZAT PE SENZORI ÎN ANALIZA ÎNVĂȚĂRII

Author(s): Emilia Corbu / Language(s): Romanian Publication Year: 0

In context of pandemic crisis, the emergency remote teaching (ERT) process raised a multitude of problems for institutions, teachers, and students, led the author to design a model for evaluating teaching and evaluation processes. In our previous studies, we developed a model for the evaluation system called the learning analytics and evaluation model (LAEM). We also validated a software instrument we designed called the EvalMathI system, which is to be used in the evaluation system and was developed and tested during the pandemic. For optimization of the evaluation process was accomplished by including and integrating the dashboard model in a responsive panel. In this paper, we analyse the possibilities to complete our learning analytics system with a sensor-supported component. Also, we identify which sensor technologies can be used in a more suited manner. Sensor technologies have been adapted for various domains, such as healthcare, and education. The proposed model component can be used to represent the capabilities of current learning analytic system and provide a basis for the future development.

THE IMPORTANCE OF NON-FORMAL ACTIVITIES IN THE RELIGIOUS EDUCATION OF YOUTH

Author(s): Vasile Creţu / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

The non-formal education is a constantly evolving concept in all areas of education. Religious education makes no exception, and, therefore, the principles of non-formal education are to be applied also in the activities organized by the Church with the children and young people. This article focuses on presenting the most important principles of the non-formal activities and the value brought by these activities to the development of young people. Also, the article will present relevant examples of successful non-formal activities already applied within the Church. In a progressively modern world, the need for adapted tools increases. Thus, the tools in education must also be adapted to the requirements of the modern world, so that the new generation can receive and apply voluntarily its principles. For the Church, this does not mean that the religious principles have to change. It only means that the tools and instruments have to be adapted and used properly so that the new generation can embrace the Word of God and to apply the Christian principles of living in their current way of life.

Author(s): Anamaria Gheorghiu / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Starting from the instructive-educational features of current catehetic activities, this paper aims to analyse the architecture of discourses, interactions and verbal means that stimulate argumentation in such contexts, from the multimodal, multichannel perspective of the catehetic medium. The corpus, comprising current Romanian spoken language, which presents the three facets of language: verbal, paraverbal and nonverbal, was put together by transcribing personal recordings taken in Vienna, Austria. It is analysed as a whole, based on the statuary and communicative features of these religious discoursive events, which, in turn, in various proportions, reach the four objectives of the catehetic speaker’s communicative intentions: to inform – persuade -convince - form a collective identity. The last one is strategically addressed, by stressing the feelings of belonging, by appealing to the collective memory and by stimulating its prospective function, through various discoursive means that define discourse as being identity discourse.

ANXIETY TRAITS IN THE CONTEXT OF THE DECISION FOR THE BEGINNING IN THE TEACHING CAREER

Author(s): Ramona Hurduzeu / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Entering the profession is an important step for any young person who completes his or her studies, whether high school or university. The decision to enter the teaching profession is one of great responsibility, and the psycho-pedagogical and specialist training should facilitate professional insertion. The present study looks at the decision that young people with a bachelor's degree and a psycho-pedagogical training, current master's students, have taken to enter the teaching profession or not. One of the arguments expressed by young people for not yet entering into the teaching profession is the need for further psycho-pedagogical and specialist training, which could in fact cover at the young person an anxious structure. We understand anxiety as a feeling of fear experienced as a reaction to a stressful situation, accompanied by feelings that have a dysfunctional effect on the individual's mental life.
