استخدام الاستقصاء التعاونی المتمرکز حول التکنولوجیا فی تدریس محتوى الهندسة لتنمیة المقدرة على الحس المکانی والفهم الهندسی Using Co-operative Inquiry based on Technology in teaching geometrical content to develop spatial sense, and geomtrical understanding

The national or local lockdowns in response to COVID-19 forced education systems to rapidly shift from in-person to distance learning. The hasty transition undoubtedly imposed tremendous challenges on teachers, students and distance learning infrastructure. The purpose of this study was to investigate how high school science teachers who had previously been trained in flipped-learning and advanced educational technology through the Science Teaching Excites Medical Interest (STEMI) program perceived their transition to distance learning during this pandemic. In this study eleven teachers were interviewed with a semi-structured interview guide. Data were analyzed using the deductive-inductive content analytic approach. Our results indicated that teachers reported having more confidence in using technology for teaching online due in part to their participation in the STEMI program. They also reported internet access as one of the most significant barriers, both for students and teachers. While some teachers thought that students may feel more in control of learning due to absence of time and place limits with distance learning, others may struggle to stay engaged without the classroom support they would normally have received. Teachers generally experienced increased workloads and harder work–life balance with online teaching. In spite of the unforeseen challenges, the pandemic situation afforded teachers with opportunities to adopt different technology in teaching and foresee the need for technology integration in order to better prepare for the unexpected in the future.

With the continuous development of information technology, more and more fields have used the technology to promote the development of the industry, which included educational field. At the present stage, many colleges all introduce information technology into the education. In recent years, there are much application of information technology in physical education. The technology in teaching makes the class content more abundant. In the meanwhile, it relieves teachers’ workload to a large extent, and improves students’ studying enthusiasm. At present, college physical education curriculum has started to introduce advanced information educational technology. This paper mainly analyzes the specific application of information technology in physical education.

Problems And Solutions

Virtual reality (VR) is a computer-simulated environment that can simulate physical presence in places in the real world or imagined worlds. It is new comprehensive information technology which enables users to "access" to the computer-simulated environment through the use of standard input devices and realize the direct interaction between users and the simulated environment. With a case study by using the theory of visual reality technology, this thesis analysises the application types and application methods of visual reality technology as well as the existing problems and solutions during the application process of visual reality technology.
