Distance learning can be equally successful as the traditional classes, if appropriate teaching methods, technologies, etc. are applied. This paper is aimed at presenting the prospects of developing, managing, and assessing the online teaching process using the web application Moodle LMS in the musical culture classes in a general-education high school, the way in which students acquire knowledge, and what their role is in online classes using Moodle LMS.

Purpose Amid the worldwide lockdown and emergency transition to online classes caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, this paper aims to examine high school students’ satisfaction in this unique learning environment. Design/methodology/approach An exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was first used to extract a set of important factors from a number of variables. A logistic regression was subsequently used to access student satisfaction levels during the COVID-19 lockdown. In addition, a small qualitative study was conducted to gain additional insight into student satisfaction ratings. Findings A study sample of 486 usable responses revealed that students were most satisfied with the responsiveness of teaching staff, which included the provision of assignments and feedback on performance. The study also revealed that students experienced a range of emotions; those who experienced positive emotions (joy, pride, hope) were more satisfied than those who experienced negative emotions (frustration, anxiety, boredom). Research limitations/implications Policymakers and educators in high schools could benefit from these findings when formulating policy recommendations to support the manning of operations during crisis situations and justify the introduction of future offerings of blended or online courses. Originality/value The study was conducted in a real and unprecedented crisis which created a unique environment to examine factors influencing Jamaican high school students’ satisfaction levels during the lockdown.

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.

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.

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.
