ICT is becoming an inevitable tool in education nowadays. For any academic activities to be effective, the use of ICT is imperative. There are also a lot of benefits and improvement that ICT has brought to the field of education. These benefits and development cut across all spheres of education, such as the aspect of content, instruction and evaluation. In area of evaluation, the cognitive and psychomotor aspects of evaluation are mostly developed, based on the fact that both can be easily accessed through ICT. However, in the aspect of affective domain, the level of assessment is low and not absolutely reliable because it deals with the feelings, interest and values that learner attached to the subject matter. Hence, this study aimed at finding an effective way that ICT can be used to assess students’ affective domain in the process of evaluation. In order to get in-depth understanding of the subject matter, the study employs qualitative design by using semi-structured interview to elicit information from specialists in the field of communication technology. Findings from the study indicate that the use of ICT to evaluate student affective domain requires an illustrious, diligent, and enthusiastic ICT literate teacher. Equally, there is a need to develop software that will focus more on the evaluation of students’ affective domain. Meanwhile, this area that will develop students’ soft skills is greatly needed to produce good citizens, employees, and government of their individual community.

This study aimed at implementing self-reflection cards (SRCs) in learning English tenses and also explaining students’ perceptions of the use of SRCs in understanding English tenses. A qualitative design was carried out to conduct the study. It focused on interpreting and understanding students’ perception on learning English tenses. The context of study was two classes who were taking English grammar and structure, in particular for the subject matter of English tenses. English tenses were explained orally in the class before students used SRCs to improve their understanding of using English tenses. Data were collected by distributing the questionnaire to the students who participated in two classes with total number of 57 students.The data were classified based on the repetitive and common forms found to assign criteria to the most important aspects related to the objectives of the study. Results indicated that the majority of students participating in the SRCs gamesagreed to all statements in the distributed questionnaire. However, only small number of students responded to their disagreement or neutrality. The majority of positive responses from students are considered as the indicator that the use of SRCs in learning English tenses was successfully implemented in class.

The appearance of infidelity in the Polish family law The subject matter of this article is the issue of breach of the obligation of matrimonial fidelity. Practitioners face this problem in the context of the divorce proceedings’ analysis of the breakdown of a marriage and deciding on the guilty party in this regard. The aforementioned sphere is particularly interesting in the context of the development of communication technology, which has contributed both to the creation of new forms of and documenting marital infidelity. This, in turn, has brought new tasks to the field of collecting evidence before the trial. It has become necessary to decide in which situations the right to a court outweighs the protection of privacy and in which cases the secrecy of communication is violated – or even whether a possible illegal obtaining of information occurs. In the event of marital infidelity, it is also necessary to consider the importance of the forgiveness of acts committed by one of the spouses in the context of the breakdown of the marriage.

We investigated how instructors' gender affects students' perceptions. Three components of person perception were assessed: cognitive, affective, and behavioral. The cognitive domain included evaluations of the instructor and the subject matter presented; the affective domain included emotional responses to the instructor and the subject matter; and the behavioral domain included actions in response to the instructor, operationalized as the number of questions asked by students. Ninety-eight undergraduate students enrolled in psychology classes viewed one of four videotapes. Two tapes portrayed a gender-neutral topic and two demonstrated sex-bias in counseling women. The same male and female instructors made identical presentations on each topic. Students then completed the measures. As predicted, the gender of the instructor influenced evaluations of competence and importance of the material, as well as mood states and the number and kind of questions asked. On all three components of person perception, the male instructor was viewed more positively than the female instructor. Students' sex and the type of subject matter further influenced responses, particularly in the affective and behavioral areas. Implications for teaching are discussed.

THE germ of that which follows came into being many years ago in the days of my youth as a university instructor and assistant professor. It was generated by the then quite outspoken attitude of colleagues in the “exact sciences”; the sciences of which the subject-matter can be exactly weighed and measured and the force of its movements mathematically demonstrated. They assured us that the study of languages and literature had little or nothing scientific about it because: “It had no domain of concrete fact in which to work.” Ergo, the scientific spirit was theirs by a stroke of “efficacious grace” as it were. Ours was at best only a kind of “sufficient grace,” pleasant and even necessary to have, but which could, by no means ensure a reception among the elected.
