Learning English

One of the innovations in English Language Teaching is the use of moving images. This research aims to investigate how animation contribute to the students' achievement in their English class.  A classroom action research was applied with 39 first grade students involved. Observation sheet, test and documentations were used to collect the data. Three components (reduction activity, data presentation and interpretation) were used to analyse the collected data. The results indicate that the use of animation can significantly enhance lower class of primary school students’ achievements in learning English. This can be measured through their average score improvement. This result suggests teachers use moving images in order to assist students’ progress in learning English. This study implies that teachers should equip themselves with a skill to create fun classroom activities through animation. HIGHIGHTS: The application of moving picture media in classroom activities can significantly improve students’ competence and achievement in learning English for first grade of second semester in Primary School. Teachers' digital literacy need to be heightened through their active contribution in workshop or other teacher professional development activities. This helps them to build their creativity to make more modification and development of animation.

Learning English

<p>Many studies have shown that using music and songs while learning a new language can be of great benefit to students in aspects such as grammar, pronunciation and vocabulary. However, the use of songs in class as motivation to learn English is a subject that has not been explored thoroughly. The purpose of this study is to explore how the use of songs in English helps motivating students while learning English as a Second Language (ESL). The participants were primary school students at a private school located in the Lima Metropolitan Area. This study used a mixed-method design that included observations carried out by the research team and questionnaires completed by students. The results show that students are motivated to participate and become more engaged in classroom activities when songs are used in their English classes. This result was more strongly confirmed with the observations than with the questionnaires.</p>

Homogeneity Of Variance

Snowball Throwing-style cooperative learning has been shown to impact primary school students' academic performance positively. This type of research is quasi-experimental. Documentation and testing methods are used to collect data. Before hypothesis testing using t-tests, the data analysis technique used descriptive analysis and prerequisite analysis tests such as initial ability, normality and homogeneity of variance tests. According to the findings, Indonesian subjects taught using the cooperative learning model of the snowball throwing type had an average score of 19,750, and those taught using the expository learning model had an average score of 17,578. The t-test yielded tcount = 3.114 and ttable = 2.026 as the final results. This means that Indonesian primary school students learn differently in classes taught using the snowball-throwing cooperative learning model and classes taught using expository learning models, according to the t-test results. Snowball Throwing type cooperative learning is more influential than expository learning on Indonesian for elementary school subject learning outcomes according to the results of t-tests.

The educational process in a modern primary school involves a change in the position of the student: from the object of study they become active subjects of educational activities, which requires the activation of their self-organization. At the same time, the essence and purpose of education is not in the scholastic increase of information, but in the information support of the constant development of an individual. This problem is especially relevant in the context of distance learning in the New Ukrainian School (NUS), so increasingly popular are learning technologies aimed at enhancing the educational and cognitive activities of students and forming their readiness for independent work. Life in modern society requires that an individual develops the qualities of autonomy and organization: independence, initiative, ability to think creatively, etc. These qualities are considered as components of a single process of self-organization of an individual. Synergetic can be interpreted as a methodological basis for educational, prognostic, organizational and didactic-managerial educational activities. We characterize synergetic as an opportunity to solve problems of education in accordance with modern challenges. Despite numerous studies, the problem of implementing a synergetic approach in the formation of skills of self-organization of educational activities of primary school students remains open. The article describes the synergetic approach as a methodological basis of the theory of self-organization of educational activities of junior schoolchildren. The research of scientists in the field of synergetic, namely the transformation of its ideas in pedagogy as a basic idea of the theory of self-organization of educational activities of primary school students, analyzes the key ideas and positions of synergetic through the prism of interpretation of the educational process. The explication of the problem is carried out in the context of the analysis of the pedagogical system of primary school. The study presents the features of the synergetic approach in the first grade school. The essence of the synergetic approach as an interdisciplinary direction of cognition is considered. It is established that the synergetic approach allows to form self-organization of educational activity. It has been studied that the educational process in primary school can also be considered an open system, as it carries out a continuous process of exchange of information (knowledge) between teacher and students (feedback), and constantly changing the content of education according to society as a whole. The content of educational and cognitive activities during the formation of skills of self-organization of primary school students from the point of view of synergetic approach is revealed. The main regularities of the process of teaching junior schoolchildren as an open and complex system and a complex of multicomponent, interdisciplinary and multilevel knowledge are outlined, providing an opportunity to identify the main areas of synergetic ideas in the educational process. It is concluded that the implementation of a synergetic approach to the management and organization of the educational process of primary school will significantly increase its efficiency, make the educational process more flexible and universal.

The article considers the problem of organization and methodological support of the process of formation of skills of network joint activities in primary school students. The relevance of this research problem is due to the following contradictions:between the need for a practice-oriented and controlled focus on the process of forming in young schoolchildren the skills of safe and ethical interaction in the network, as a requirement of a modern digital society and the lack of pedagogical conditions for its implementation in educational institutions;between the high potential of network interaction in the formation of digital literacy elements of elementary schoolchildren and insufficient practical and theoretical research in this area;between the didactic opportunities of joint network activities in the process of training and education in elementary school and the insufficient development of pedagogical conditions for its implementation.The purpose of the study:  the development and experimental testing of the level model of network interaction of primary school children in a distributed information and educational environment. This model is based on the principle of a phased increase in the degree of activity, independence and responsibility of subjects of joint network activities, which is implemented through specially designed educational and methodological support. The problem is highlighted due to the lack of research and the lack of specialized methodological support in the field of networking in elementary school.Materials and methods.  The theoretical basis of the study is the analysis of research works in the field of Internet security for schoolchildren and the psychology of primary school children, a generalization of pedagogical experience in the use of distance and network technologies in classroom activities, an analysis of the regulatory documents of primary general education.Results.  The approbation of the level model of network interaction of primary schoolchildren was carried out during the 2016–2017, 2017– 2018, 2018–2019 academic years on the basis of MAOU Gymnasium No. 9 of Krasnoyarsk and secondary school No. 11 of Abakan. The study covered 105 primary school students. A complete set of educational and methodological support for the network interaction of elementary schoolchildren in computer science lessons in a distributed information and educational environment has been developed and fully tested.Conclusion.  The level model of network interaction of elementary schoolchildren described in the article can be used both in the classroom and in extracurricular activities in various subject areas in elementary school. This model includes four levels of network interaction formation: interaction independently from each other without feedback, interaction independently from each other with the need for mutual control, consistent interaction with observance of the order and correctness of the task, non-linear interaction. In accordance with the developed model of network interaction, a distributed informational and educational environment of elementary school was formed and filled up on the example of the subject field “informatics”, which ensures the implementation of various types of elementary school students network interaction in classroom activities. Research materials can be replicated in general education organizations at the initial stage, and also used to improve the skills of primary school teachers and computer scientists.
