Life Tasks

In this project designed for high school students, learners make an audio book of a children’s story. They record the narration, add music and sound effects, and mix down the final product. This project demonstrates how a DAW like Ableton Live, and hardware such as Push or Launchpad, can be used for more than making beats. The project gets students thinking about sound design, working collaboratively, learning to use a microphone properly, and working on real-life tasks. Although this project can be completed as a solo project, students enjoy the opportunity to work in small groups because they can delegate tasks based on each other’s preferences and strengths.

Foreign Language Students

While learning a foreign language, students have to practice speaking through different activities in class. Unfortunately, speaking is often a challenge for students not only due to linguistic difficulties, but most importantly because of the stress caused by talking in a foreign language in front of their classmates. This phenomenon, called language anxiety, makes it impossible for some students to participate actively and thus to develop their speaking abilities. It is therefore important to understand which types of tasks cause the highest anxiety levels, as well as to find out what can help students overcome their anxiety. To answer these questions, we led a research among Polish high school students learning French. They were asked about their attitudes towards different speaking activities in class, as well as about the atmosphere in class. The results show students are the most stressed while speaking in front of their peers and prefer interaction in small groups. Language games also appear to lower the level of anxiety during speaking. In addition, positive atmosphere and lack of judgment help students overcome their fear, but they do not eliminate it completely for every person.

Geometry Learning

This study aims to investigate high school students’ geometry learning by focusing on mathematical creativity and its relationship with visualisation and geometrical figure apprehension. The presentation of a geometrical task and its influence on students’ mathematical creativity is the main topic investigated. The authors combine theory and research in mathematical creativity, considering Roza Leikin’s research work on Multiple-Solution Tasks with theory and research in visualisation and geometrical figure apprehension, mainly considering Raymond Duval’s work. The relations between creativity, visualization and geometrical figure apprehension are examined through four Geometry Multiple-Solution Tasks given to high school students in Greece. The geometrical tasks are divided into two categories depending on whether their wording is accompanied by the relevant figure or not. The results of the study indicate a multidimensional character of relations among creativity, visualization and geometrical figure apprehension. Didactical implications and future research opportunities are discussed.

The Difference

In this paper, the author investigates how teachers perceive the quality of decision - making of students of different ages while working in small groups. The examination of the beliefs of 162 teachers about the quality of decisions that students make while working in small groups was achieved by the KDO-MG scale, which was created and tested for the purposes of this research. A two-factor univariate analysis of variance found that there was a statistically significant difference between the beliefs of teachers, subject teachers and high school teachers about the quality of students' decision-making during work in small groups. The difference is reflected in the fact that teachers' beliefs indicate that the quality of decisions is higher among high school students than is the case with elementary school students.

Introduction. Chernoff faces, invented by Herman Chernoff in 1973, is a method of displaying multivariate data in the shape of a human face. Aim. The aim of the study was to characterize the group of adolescents with hypertension identified in the course of screening tests and to display it with the aid of Chernoff faces. Material and methods. The study group consisted of 690 middle and high school students aged 15-17, from randomly selected Warsaw and sub-Warsaw schools, 366 boys and 324 girls who underwent screening tests (I stage). Among them 40 students were diagnosed with arterial hypertension and qualified for diagnosis in the Department of Cardiology (II stage). Results. The results were presented graphically using Chernoff faces. Conclusions. Chernoff faces show the characteristics of small groups of patients differing from each other by a large number of analyzed parameters in much more efficient, effective and interesting way than standard charts and tables.

This study examines STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) as one approach that is integrated with the project based learning model. This study aims to analyze the mathematical creativity of high school students through the integrated STEM project based learning model in learning physics material elasticity. The research method used was a pre-experimental design with the One Group Post-test Only Design which was carried out in class XI MIPA 6 of SMAN 2 Jember with 36 students consisting of 14 male students and 22 female students formed in 6 heterogeneous groups each - each group consisted of 6 people. Data collection was performed using the final test in the form of analysis of student worksheets and video analysis of student learning processes to measure students' mathematical creativity. Based on the results of the study, it was found that the application of STEM integrated project based learning affected the mathematical creativity of high school students in class XI MIPA 6 of SMAN 2 Jember.
