The government of Mongolia is implementing a "Lunch program". In 2018, the Ministry of Education, Culture, and Science and the Ministry of Health adopted a joint order stating that the caloric content of school meals should be 15% of the daily norm, and the caloric content of daily lunch should be 268 calories. In 2019, this program involved 788 primary school students from 288,177 secondary school students in the city and rural area of Darkhan (Mongolia). The analysis of the composition of dishes and products of real lunch in a number of schools was made. The portions and the caloric content of the products and the entire lunch were determined.

Primary Mathematics Education

Digital media is currently a trend in learning mathematics. However, digitalization of the media in primary mathematics education still at an introductory level. This study aims to determine students' mathematical literacy abilities, supported by digital media. The digital media used in this study was Virtual Mathematics Kits (VMK). This study involved 83 primary school students (45 intervention class; 28 non-intervention class) as participant of mathematical literacy training (6 weeks). Students' mathematical literacy evaluated by two section mathematical literacy test. This study revealed that mathematical literacy training led to improve mathematical literacy from both classes. However, mathematical literacy training with VMK aplication have better performance. This study shows that VMK as the digital media have big impact to support students' mathematical literacy abilities.

The authors in the article present the main phenomena that during the state of emergency declared by the Government of the Slovak Republic due to the spreading coronavirus pandemic should contribute to managing the situation and support the functioning of the educational environment of primary and secondary schools in Slovakia in the newly established conditions. Following the summarization of the relevant phenomena, findings arising from the acquired experience of teachers from practice are presented. The analysis of the acquired experience was processed on the basis of panel discussions with teachers, which were focused on a critical evaluation of their practical experience in providing education for primary and secondary school students during an emergency and a subsequent emergency situation. At the same time, both the described process of learning to teach and learn under the pandemic situation, as well as the presented findings resulted from the panel discussions, are put in an international context and compared with the situation and experiences from other countries

The Subject

The media is one of the factors that also determines the success of teaching because it helps students and teachers deliver the subject matter in connection with the teaching objectives. In this condition the use of instructional media in the form of multimedia can improve the efficiency of the process and the quality of teaching and learning outcomes. the use of media in the teaching and learning process can arouse new desires and interests, generate motivation and stimuli for learning. In dealing with students who can be said to not be able to motivate themselves, this becomes a challenge for a teacher. So that the application of multimedia applications can help students in learning, training and directing students in primary schools in the introduction of animal development.

Abstract In current debates the media, policy makers and scientists are aiming to identify factors explaining negative trends in the orthography competencies of German primary school students. Especially a concept making use of initial sound tables and the method “reading by writing“ is often identified as a core factor. However empirical studies backing these claims are rare and contradictory. Also very little is known about the actual use of initial sound tables in primary schools. In this article we provide an overview of empirical studies on the effectiveness of the use of initial sound tables and the concept “reading by writing“. We then present data from a short teacher survey on the use of initial sound tables in German classes, which was realized as an extension to the PIRLS 2016 and is therefore representative for German primary schools. According to this survey about 70 % of all Grade 4 learners of 2016 have been exposed to initial sound tables as part of their German lessons throughout primary school. About half of these learners were asked to work almost every lesson with these tables in their first one-half years of schooling. We also find that teachers who work with sound tables differ in their beliefs about when student’s spelling mistakes should be corrected. In addition we find that the majority of teachers report to combine the use of sound tables with other materials, such as basic readers. We argue especially this finding should guide future designs of studies aiming to compare the effectiveness of different methods as most of the current studies possibly wrongly assume a distinctive or at least dominant use of initial sound tables or basic readers.

Linguistic Backgrounds

Many countries face the problem of skill shortage in traditionally male occupations. Individuals’ development of vocational interests and employment goals starts as early as in middle childhood and is strongly influenced by perceptions of job accessibility (status and difficulty) and self-efficacy beliefs. In this study, we tested a linguistic intervention to strengthen children’s self-efficacy toward stereotypically male occupations. Two classroom experiments with 591 primary school students from two different linguistic backgrounds (Dutch or German) showed that the presentation of occupational titles in pair forms (e.g., Ingenieurinnen und Ingenieure, female and male engineers), rather than in generic masculine forms (Ingenieure, plural for engineers), boosted children’s self-efficacy with regard to traditionally male occupations, with the effect fully being mediated by perceptions that the jobs are not as difficult as gender stereotypes suggest. The discussion focuses on linguistic interventions as a means to increase children’s self-efficacy toward traditionally male occupations.

The Media

We investigated effects of the media’s portrayal of boys as “scholastic failures” on secondary school students. The negative portrayal induced stereotype threat (boys underperformed in reading), stereotype reactance (boys displayed stronger learning goals towards mathematics but not reading), and stereotype lift (girls performed better in reading but not in mathematics). Apparently, boys were motivated to disconfirm their group’s negative depiction, however, while they could successfully apply compensatory strategies when describing their learning goals, this motivation did not enable them to perform better. Overall the media portrayal thus contributes to the maintenance of gender stereotypes, by impairing boys’ and strengthening girls’ performance in female connoted domains and by prompting boys to align their learning goals to the gender connotation of the domain.
