Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to describe the development of new interactive, bi-lingual Sex and Relationships Education (SRE) resources called Tyfu i Fyny/Growing Up, suitable for students aged between five and 12 years. It also discusses the evidence used to support the development of the resources, the support provided for teachers and parents and an initial evaluation following their use. Design/methodology/approach – Tyfu i Fyny/Growing Up are interactive bi-lingual (Welsh and English) SRE teaching resources for primary schools suitable for students aged five to 12 years. These resources comprise of two components, an interactive electronic web-based programme and a floor mat illustrating a naked boy and girl. The electronic web-based programme is used to introduce puberty changes, loving relationships, conception, pregnancy and birth and is suitable for students aged nine to 12 years. The floor mat is suitable to be used with students aged between five and 12 years. Teaching activities can include naming body parts, discussing gender differences, personal safety, distinguishing between appropriate and inappropriate touching, discussing puberty changes and other health promotion activities as well as delivering aspects of the National Curriculum for Wales. Findings – The results from the initial evaluation undertaken with year six students and teachers demonstrates how the resources have impacted on the teaching and learning experiences of primary teachers and students. It also demonstrates how the teacher training sessions and using the Tyfu i Fyny/Growing Up resources have increased teachers’ confidence in delivering SRE. Practical implications – The learning experiences of students and their enjoyment of using the Tyfu i Fyny/Growing Up resources were significantly high. The implementation of teacher training improved teaching practice and increased teachers’ confidence in the subject. The resources have facilitated the delivery of effective whole school comprehensive SRE programmes for primary schools. These factors confirm the value of the investment given to their development. The resources could easily be customised in line with diverse ethnic, cultural, linguistic and religious requirements. Originality/value – This paper demonstrates how the Tyfu i Fyny/Growing Up interactive SRE resources have influenced the teaching and learning experiences of primary school teachers and students.

In the 21st century era, technology has influenced on many aspects of life includes education. Thus, lecturers are demanded to apply it in teaching and learning process because it can help lecturers deliver the material in attractive ways to trigger the students’ enthusiasm. There were still fewer technology usage in teaching and learning in speaking class as the researchers did a preliminary study (questionnaire) in Universitas Muhammadiyah Malang (UMM). The preliminary study showed that 63% students said their lecturer never uses multimedia-based medium in teaching speaking, yet 89% students thought the usage in classroom was important. Answering the students’ need, the researchers want to use a multimedia-based medium, Ethnic Snake Game, in speaking class for Electrical Engineering students in UMM. Thus, this research belongs to descriptive research. In using this multimedia-based medium, the lecturer and students showed positive responds.

Students of Faculty of Teacher Training usually will undergo field experience practice when they are at higher semester, usually at 6th and 7th semester.  In their sixth semester they will undergo field experience practice I (PPL I), and at seventh semester, they will undergo field experience practice II (PPL II). In PPL II, they will undergo pre-service teacher training in the form of classroom teaching involvement.  They will be given an opportunity to conduct a teaching practice at school where they are assigned. It is worth knowing that although all the students who undergo PPL have been provided with some theoretical knowledges related to teaching and learning process, such as how to teach in class, how to conduct an evaluation, how to construct testitem, etc,  yet, they still have experience some problems in the field.  One of the most outstanding problems the writers found and has drawn the writer’s attention was the test item construction and its appropriateness towards the indicators. The design of this research was descriptive qualitative. The location of the research was the library of STKIP PGRI Banjarmasin, Jl.Sultan Adam Komp. H. Iyus No.18 Rt.23 Banjarmasin. The data source was the document of PPL II report.  The document was taken from the students’ PPL II report year 2015. The population of the research was the PPL II report of the seventh semester students of English Department of STKIP PGRI Banjarmasin who had taken PPL II and who conducted the PPL II at Senior High school. Since the number of PPL II report consisted of more than 120 RPP reports, then the writers took a sample. The sampling technique used was proportional random sampling. The sample taken was 12 RPP reports which consisted of six reports for middle test and six reports for final test. The result of this research is the test item constructed in PPL II reports mostly inappropriate toward indicators. The inappropriateness (75%)are mostly caused by no test items provided in RPP.

We evaluated a teacher training intervention programme aimed at improving the teaching and learning process relating to history in the secondary classroom. This was carried out via the implementation of several teaching units during the period of teaching practice of trainee teachers specialising in geography and history. The design of the teaching units was based on historical thinking competencies and on the introduction of active learning strategies. The programme was evaluated via a quasi-experimental A-B type methodological approach employing a pretest and a post-test. Both tools were designed on the basis of four dimensions (methodology, motivation, satisfaction and perception). The content of the tools was validated using the interjudge process via a discussion group in the first round and with a Likert scale questionnaire (1–4) with seven experts in the second round. The reliability of the tools has been estimated via three indices (Cronbach’s alpha, composite reliability and omega), and the validity of the construct via an exploratory (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) with the structural equation model. The results regarding reliability and validity have been adequate. Furthermore, the descriptive results show an improvement in all of the dimensions following the implementation of the teaching units, particularly with regard to group work, the use of digital resources and work with primary sources.

Teacher training is a theme that permeates the field of studies in the field of education, as well as educational policies. Among the policies, we highlight the Institutional Teaching Initiation Scholarship Program (PIBID), which consists of an inductive action in the training of teachers aiming to value and improve teacher training. The programis developed in partnership with Universities and Basic Education Schools and involves graduates, supervisors (basic education teachers), area coordinators and teachers who work in institutional coordination and in the management of educational processes (higher education teachers). This article is part of a qualitative research that sought to investigate the relationship between training and teaching practice in theperception of the area coordinators of PIBID / Federal University of Ouro Preto (UFOP). In this article, we will present the analysis of the data collected, through questionnaires and interviews, referring to the category: “What it is to be a teacher and teacher trainer”. Among the perceptions, it was possible to identify that the PIBID / UFOP area coordinators are in permanent training and the PIBID was a possibility of approaching the public school of basic education. The study allowed us to conclude that there is a formative reciprocity among the participants, which as they form. The area coordinators reinforced the conception of knowledge and pedagogical tact in line with the inseparation of theory and practice, the work of the trainer based on dialogue, commitment to public education, teacher training, teaching and learning and the constant reassessment of its own practice.

Problem. As engineering is a vast area of study in the world and English is a recognized language of international communication, knowledge of English is compulsory. Besides, we live in the digital age and English is the only language in latest version applications, installation guides and software instructions. Learning for students of engineering from not English-speaking countries is very important not only for their scholastic life, but also for their prospective career, mobility and successful communication. Goal. The goal of the work is to determine the features of teaching English to the students of electrical engineering, specify the role of English language for engineering students, outline the technique and methods of organizing the teaching process, look into innovative technologies of teaching. Methodology. The methodology is based on the analysis of the existing methods of teaching which are many, comparison of classical and innovative methods and analysis of the strategies of different methods. The paper emphasizes creative approach in teaching as a key to success. Results. The work provides a brief theoretical grounding and a working definition for creativity and motivation in teaching English for Specific Purposes and English as a Foreign language. It also explores the role and function of creativity in the context of the changing paradigm regarding the overall scope of the educational system in general and of the language learning in particular. Originality. The work offers combining creative methods and active strategies in fostering better language acquisition during English classes. When we see that the students are involved and motivated, it means that the strategy works. The teacher-oriented method is not currently welcomed in language teaching, and the ways to make it student-oriented are offered in the work. Practical value. The paper contains some practical advice on how a teacher can create more situations in which students can contribute, initiate, control and create. Keeping in mind the dependence of the learning success on creativity of teachers and motivation of students, new innovative methods of teaching in proper combination with theory of language can be used.

Educational technology has become an increasingly important element for improving the teaching and learning process of students. To achieve these goals, it is essential that teachers have the skills they need to be able to introduce technology into their teaching practice. However, this is often overwhelming and stressful for many of them. The aim of this review was to find out how research on teacher stress and anxiety associated with the use of educational technology was proceeding. A systematic review was conducted using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines through the following bibliographic databases: PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus. Sixteen articles were found from the review. The main findings show that teachers present high levels of anxiety or stress due to their use of educational technology in the classroom. Among the conclusions, the need for research on different strategies to prevent the emergence of these anxiety and stress symptoms in teachers stands out.
