Teaching Learning

Lithuanian schools face the challenge of low learning achievement. International and national studies show that the results of Lithuanian school students are not tantamount. There are significant differences among different groups: between boys and girls, between students from different social–economic–cultural backgrounds, different types of localities (cities, towns or rural areas), as well as learners of different languages (Lithuanian, Russian, Polish) (Lithuania. National and Regional Education 2019. Student Achievement Gap). It is clear that the spectrum of factors influencing achievement is wide-ranging, from decisions made by students themselves, the teachers, or the schools, to the ones made in the wider settings or (context) or by municipalities. They all demand scientific discussion, but in this article we focus on the organisation of the teaching/learning process in the neurodidactic context.The work is based on theoretical insights, the core of which is neuroactivation in the learning process as one of the fundamental elements of good teaching and successful learning. In striving for quick, yet not always successful, learning achievement, we do not engage students in an in-depth learning process. Therefore, we fail to arouse interest in the subject taught; the students’ acquired knowledge is not preserved for long and is not used when necessary. By focusing on the teaching/learning process, we can lay the foundations for positive change at the neural level.Searching for the causes of low learning achievement and ways to overcome them, it is important to refer to the findings of contemporary studies concerning the connections between teaching and learning processes with the neuro-structure of children’s brains. A reciprocal connection was identified when learning changes the architecture (structure) of the brain, which in turn affects learning and attaches particular importance to the teacher’s work. It is its nature that can influence how the neuro-structure of the student’s brain changes at the cellular level. Therefore, it is important to consider aspects related to the student’s brain activity in the teaching process, namely excitation, awareness, memory and information transfer. In this respect, it makes sense to continue the research and to conceptually discuss the educational dimension and teaching/learning strategies when working with low achievers.

Neste trabalho, discutimos a avaliação como parte do processo ensino-aprendizagem. Até a década de 80, as provas escritas, sendo elas discursivas ou objetivas, eram o elemento central do processo de avaliação, sendo consideradas o único método para se avaliar. Porém, a partir da década de 90, a comunidade educacional começou a perceber que a avaliação deveria ir além do seu caráter classificatório passando a ser um procedimento diagnóstico e somativo. Para isso, a avaliação deve estar aliada aos processos de ensino e aprendizagem, sendo um processo bem mais abrangente denominado Ensino-Aprendizagem-Avaliação (ONUCHIC; ALLEVATO, 2011). Dessa maneira, faz-se necessário repensarmos as práticas em sala de aula e buscarmos alternativas que integrem esses três importantes mecanismos. Nesse sentido, o objetivo do presente trabalho foi verificar a funcionalidade de um método de avaliação que promova a aprendizagem dos alunos. Relatamos uma experiência de avaliação realizada com alunos dos anos finais do Ensino Fundamental, utilizando a Avaliação por observação com intervenção imediata no ensino de Ciências aliada ao método de Resolução de problemas. Apesar desse método de avaliação ainda ser pouco utilizado, principalmente no Ensino fundamental, concluímos que é uma metodologia eficaz de avaliação que pode ser utilizada na promoção da aprendizagem, inclusive no ensino de Ciências. Palavras-chave: Avaliação. Ensino-Aprendizagem-Avaliação. Resolução de problemas.   Integrated evaluation of the teaching-learning process in science: a proposal applied to the final years of elementary school Abstract In this article, the evaluate as component of the teaching-learning process was discussed. Until the 1980s, written tests (whether discursive or objective), were the central element for the evaluation process, being considered the unique method for this purpose. However, from the 90's, the educational community realized that the evaluation should overcome its classificatory character, becoming a diagnostic and summative procedure. For this purpose, the evaluation must be connected to the teaching and learning processes, as a much more comprehensive process, namely Teaching-Learning-Assessment (Onuchic; Allevato, 2011). In this sense, it's necessary to rethink classroom practices, and look for alternatives that could integrate these three important mechanisms. In this way, the aim of the present paper was to verify the functionality of an evaluation method, which could promotes students learning. It was reported an evaluation experience with the final years of Elementary School students, using the Observation Assessment with immediate intervention in the Sciences teaching, associated to the Problem Solving method. Although this evaluation method is not largely used, mainly in Elementary School, this assessment methodology was reported as effective, which can be employed to promote learning,  including in Science teaching.

La Didáctica centrada en el estudiante exige la utilización de concepciones, modelos, alternativas, estrategias y métodos adecuados, en los que el proceso de enseñanza- aprendizaje se conciba cada vez más como resultado del vínculo entre lo afectivo, lo cognitivo, las interacciones sociales y la comunicación. La presente investigación científica ofrece elementos teóricos y metodológicos esenciales que permiten asumir posiciones bien fundamentadas y estructuradas acerca de las estrategias pedagógicas dirigidas a los docentes y los métodos de enseñanza y aprendizaje, lo que en ocasiones se aborda desde diversas posiciones, no siempre consistentes y con múltiples acepciones e interpretaciones. La Pedagogía se enfrenta a un gran reto en estos momentos, la dirección y conducción adecuada del proceso de enseñanza y aprendizaje en la Educación Superior con el empleo del Constructivismo, donde el estudiante sea quien produzca el conocimiento desarrollando un pensamiento crítico, reflexivo desde el punto de vista cognoscitivo, poniendo a su disposición estrategias de aprendizaje en un contexto donde lamentablemente predomina una Pedagogía Conductista. El presente artículo aborda las estrategias de enseñanza- y aprendizaje que permiten tanto al profesor como al estudiante, tener una comprensión profunda de este fenómeno dentro del proceso docente educativo en la Facultad de Marketing y Comunicación, de la Universidad Tecnológica Ecotec.   Student-centered Didactics requires the use of appropriate conceptions, models, alternatives, strategies and methods, in which the teaching-learning process is increasingly conceived as a result of the link between the affective, the cognitive, social interactions and the communication. This scientific research offers essential theoretical and methodological elements that allow us to assume well-founded and structured positions about pedagogical strategies aimed at teachers and teaching and learning methods, which is sometimes approached from different positions, not always consistent and with multiple meanings and interpretations. Pedagogy faces a great challenge at this time, the proper direction and conduction of the teaching and learning process in Higher Education with the use of Constructivism, where the student is the one who produces knowledge by developing critical thinking, reflective from the point of view. from a cognitive point of view, making learning strategies available to them in a context where, unfortunately, a Behavioral Pedagogy predominates. This article addresses the teaching- and learning strategies that allow both the teacher and the student to have a deep understanding of this phenomenon within the educational teaching process at the Faculty of Marketing and Communication of the Ecotec Technological University.

The results of observations conducted on the students of Class VI SDN 2 Kalirejo on 7-9 December 2019, showed the lack of learning activities caused by the limited textbooks, the lack of material on textbooks related to student life and teacher-centered learning. So, based on needs analysis, adequate textbooks are needed in line with the number of students whose material is derived from the daily life of students and the application of relevant learning strategies is a must. Efforts made to overcome this is conducting research and development that aims to produce the contextual-based, valid, interesting, practical and effective textbooks of Social Science (IPS).  The model used in this research and development was 4D model. The 4D model (Thiagarajan, S., Semmel, DS, & Semmel, MI: 1974)) consists of Define, Design, Develop and Disseminate. Teaching-learning process used contextual approach or Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL). The data were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively. The data was based on the assessment of material and linguists experts were considered valid. The results of product attractiveness test from the questionnaire given to students and teachers showed very interesting criteria. This material was very practical. This was based on the result of observing teacher activities and student learning activities. The product was also considered to fulfill the effective criteria. Based on the results of the analysis, the contextual textbook for Class VI on social science of Primary School was eligible and could be used in the learning process because it had reached the valid, attractive, practical and effective criteria.

This paper attempts to offer some efforts that can be applied or employed by teachers  in teaching learning activities to shape self-directed learners. It encompasses some theories about roles of teachers, roles of learners, the definition and characteristics of self-directed learners,the advantages of self-directed learning, and some possible tips of shaping self-directed learners. Some roles of teachers  are discussed in this paper to highlight that  teachers do not only teach and give some materials to be learned by their  learners but have great tasks, like  to be  a monitor of students learning, motivator, organizer, and controller of pupil behaviour,provider of accurate language models,counselor and friend, needs analyst,material developer, and evaluator (Richard :1990:4). Hence, a teacher must encourage learners to take on greater degree of responsibility for their own successful learning (Hedge, 2000:34) and a teacher must motivate and help the learners to gain and develop the executive control of their  learning strategies especially metacognitive strategies to teach them how to learn (Joyce,etal:  2009:16).Thus, some roles of learners become important to be included in this paper to assert that the burden of learning cannot be merely puored on the teacher but the learners  have some roles need to be contemplated for the success of teaching and learning.  Therefore, the integration of teacher - learner  awareness toward their roles in teaching learning process can be effectively shaped to generate self-directed learners.

Integrating knowledge and education has become a major issue in Malaysia in the context of globalization. This study develops a teacher-centered Qur’anic methodology based on the integration of acquired (‘aqlī) and revealed (naqlī) knowledge as regards content, as well as the integration of teachers’ role in a teaching-learning process designed to empower students to manage “self” and “system.” It further investigates the existing curriculum and institutional efforts to integrate these two types of knowledge, students’ understanding of the integrated knowledge and its learning process, as well as how the teachers and lecturers understand this integrated knowledge and apply it to their teaching methods. Data collected through interviews and surveys of participating school students and teachers, as well as university students and lecturers, revealed several issues that need to be addressed.
