Recently, teaching and learning processes have been significantly influenced by modern technologies. Thus, the teacher’s position as the only authority in the classroom has been changed into playing the role of a guide or a facilitator who should possess the knowledge and skills to use modern technologies and to freely access data. This change is particularly visible in the field of teaching and learning languages with the application of various educational platforms and software. Since this situation has been widely discussed since the 1990s, for the sake of this article only selected aspects have been taken into account. The major focus of the present article is to present language corpus analysis as a method of activating teachers and students as participants in the Data-Driven Learning (DDL) process.

Информационно-компьютерные технологии (ИКТ) являются одним из величайших достижений человечества. Начиная с появления Нomo sapiens множество технологий разной степени сложности являются его постоянными спутниками на всем протяжении существования. Во многом благодаря именно развитию технологий, возникли такие явления как цивилизация, наука и искусство. Современные технологии также коренным образом изменяют нашу жизнь. Они влияют на различные стороны нашего бытия, и во многом определяют само это бытие. Как показывает практика, современные ИКТ играют важнейшую роль в каждой сфере жизни современного общества. Некоторые задачи обучения и развития также могут быть существенно автоматизированы благодаря современным цифровым технологиям. Следует также отметить, что многие сложные и критически важные процессы могут быть осуществлены менее затратно и с большей эффективностью при использовании таких технологий. Благодаря более продвинутым или прикладным ИКТ жизнь человека существенно изменилась, и, следует заметить, она изменилась к лучшему. Следует отметить также, что современные цифровые технологии привнесли поистине революционные изменения и в сферу образования. Важность вопроса внедрения ИКТ в школах различного уровня сегодня уже трудно переоценить. Фактически с появлением цифровых технологий в образовании учителям стало значительно легче делиться знаниями, а ученикам их приобретать. Повсеместное использование ИКТ сделало тесно взаимосвязанные процессы преподавания и обучения значительно более интересными и позитивно окрашенными, как для преподавателей так и для обучающихся. Information and computer technologies (ICT) are one of the greatest achievements of mankind. Since the emergence of Nomo sapiens, many technologies of varying degrees of complexity have been its constant companions throughout its existence. It is largely due to the development of technology that such phenomena as civilization, science and art have emerged. Modern technologies are also fundamentally changing our lives. They affect various aspects of our being, and in many ways determine this very being. As practice shows, modern ICT play a crucial role in every sphere of modern society. Some training and development tasks can also be significantly automated thanks to modern digital technologies. It should also be noted that many complex and critical processes can be implemented less cost-effectively and with greater efficiency when using such technologies. Thanks to more advanced or applied ICTs, a person's life has changed significantly, and, it should be noted, it has changed for the better. It should also be noted that modern digital technologies have brought truly revolutionary changes to the field of education. It is difficult to overestimate the importance of implementing ICT in schools at various levels today. In fact, with the advent of digital technologies in education, it has become much easier for teachers to share knowledge and for students to acquire it. The widespread use of ICTs has made the closely interlinked processes of teaching and learning much more interesting and positive for both teachers and students.

Not only does teaching about gender and sexuality diversity lead to some very interesting and often emotionally evocative, pedagogical exchanges; it can also create challenging issues for teachers and students alike. This article focuses on what happens when a module that addresses compulsory heterosexuality and schooling is broached in an undergraduate sociology class. More importantly, it offers an analysis of the critical incidents and tensions that pay specific attention to how power, knowledge, and emotion feature in teaching and learning. Using antioppressive and affect theories, this article offers an analysis of how we might understand pedagogical practice, especially as it relates to addressing the power of normative heterosexuality in a university classroom. With reflections emerging from the module, I argue for more sociological theorization and analysis of the role of affect in pedagogies that seek to advance liberatory teaching and learning in the area of anti-heterosexism education.

This chapter introduces a new paradigm of learning and teaching that aims to develop students’ contextualized multiple intelligence (CMI) and create unlimited opportunity for students’ lifelong independent learning through a triplization process including individualization, localization, and globalization in teaching and learning. In particular, the chapter illustrates how students’ self-learning can be motivated, sustained, and highly enhanced in an individually, locally, and globally networked human and ICT environment. Different from the traditional emphasis on delivery of knowledge and skills in planned curriculum, the new paradigm pursues the extensive application of ICT and enhancement of teachers and students’ ICT literacy in building up a networked environment for students’ individualized, localized, and globalized learning and CMI development. It is hoped that students equipped with the necessary ICT literacy can become borderless learners with unlimited opportunities for learning and development in a networked environment.

Collaboration is an important aspect of how our world functions today and an element at the core of rich learning opportunities. The role of educational institutions is one that provides provoking settings so that learning is deep and sustained well beyond the classroom walls. Learners are currently in a paradigm where they are able to learn at all hours of the day; they are no longer in a framework where learning is exclusive to a classroom. Teachers and students at The Bishop Strachan School are exploring this through the various uses of teaching and learning strategies and enriching these strategies with Web 2.0 applications. This chapter will present early explorations in the school with Wiki pages, social networking tools, such as NINGs, interactive timelines, and real-time applications, such as Google apps. Each of the cases provides an authentic learning experience for students and moves the student’s work out into the world.

Mentoring In Education

Mentorship between new and experienced education professionals is a laborious task. Senior educators assume the responsibility of teaching rules, codes of conduct, relevant information, content knowledge and skills, and so forth to newer colleagues as a way to help them transition into the new role of an educator. This form of mentorship can also exist between professionals and students who are learning about their fields of study. Finally, older students can mentor younger students to help them progress academically, personally, physically, and psychologically. Hence, mentoring is one of the more effective processes for supporting and improving professional development in education (McCampbell, 2002). Because mentorship can be arduous in terms of time and commitment, other mentoring alternatives are available such as using online communications. This overview discusses the importance of using online modes of communication as a form of mentorship between educators and students. When distance and time are factors impeding effective mentorship, online tools can help improve the teaching and learning processes.

AbstractThe role of social media (SoMe) in surgical education is emerging as a tool that augments and complements traditional learning. As SoMe usage has steadily increased in our personal and professional lives, it is no surprise that it has permeated into surgical education. Different SoMe sites offer distinct platforms from which knowledge can be transmitted, while catering to various learning styles. The purpose of this review is to outline the various SoMe platforms and their use in surgical education. Moreover, it will discuss their effectiveness in teaching and learning surgical knowledge and skills as well as other potential roles SoMe has to offer to improve surgical education.

The study of motivation has a very important role in understanding of school success. The teachers and the education of parents and tutors are the key elements that influence the motivational dynamics for student learning, which is a crucial aspect to self-regulate the learning process in a positive way. This research aims to analyze the influence of the school context on the development of the motivational autonomy of Secondary Education students in the municipality of Baía Farta, Benguela province, Angola. For this purpose, a quantitative descriptive methodology was developed through a Likert scale questionnaire administered to teachers and students. The total sample of the study consisted of 650 students (60.1% men and 39.9% women) and 72 teachers (54.2% men and 45.8% women). The main results point to the commitment and active participation of students through motivational strategies that are implemented through the activities planned by the school. Creating a supportive environment for the student to be motivated requires the development of a role of the guiding teacher, guide and support in the teaching and learning process, as opposed to a traditional conception of teaching more closed and hierarchical.

In general, learning media is a tool for teaching and learning processes or  anything that can be used to stimulate students ' minds, feelings, attention and skills so that they can encourage the learning process. Integrative thematic learning is learning that integrates multiple topics into a theme. This integrative thematic learning provides students with direct experience, and requires students to be more involved in providing comprehensive learning and not being separated.This integrative thematic learning also involves the inculcation of spiritual values and social values which are taught together with the provision of general learning materials.It is very important to use and apply the learning media in integrative thematic learning in elementary schools.This is also focused on the age of children who are still in elementary school and, of course, learning will be of great interest for them when using media that can stimulate and motivatethem to learn. By using appropriate learning media, teachers and students are expected to be able to achieve the planned objectives. Especially students are expected to gain meaningful experience in the spiritual, social, knowledge and skills domains. Thus, learning in schools, particularly at the elementary level can be a foundation for students when they go through adult life so that they become successful humans when they grow up

Metaphor acts as a window into comprehending teachers’ experiences through providing insights into complex concepts of teaching and learning. As a result, it plays a crucial role in exploring beliefs about teachers’ roles in the teaching and learning process. To elicit ideas and beliefs which both teachers and students held about the role of English teachers, questionnaires were given to 30 teachers and 85 students in the University of Duhok, English Department. The questionnaire asked the subjects to provide their beliefs about English teachers’ roles by using a sentence completion task “An English teacher is…. because….”. Eight conceptual categories are introduced from the linguistic metaphors and example metaphors for each category are given in the results tables. The eight conceptual categories include: teacher as devotee, teacher as nurturer, teachers as provider / source of knowledge, teacher as cultural transmitter, teacher as authority, teacher as guider, teacher as a friend, and teacher as a nice beautiful soul. All participants expressed the same conceptual categories, but still they use different metaphors to express their views. An interesting feature of these results is that there are some parallel and overlaps of metaphors among different subjects. The findings of this study suggested subtle differences between students’ and teachers’ beliefs. This study will benefit teachers, curriculum designers, and researchers. Researchers may carry out comprehensive studies using metaphor as an investigating tool to better understand both students and teachers’ perceptions of the teachers’ roles. The results will help develop comprehensive and inclusive methods of teaching. Larger samples with variables such as gender, age, different locations, and proficiency of participants should be taken into consideration during future studies.
