In New Zealand school libraries, the nature of educational activities performed by school library staff is unclear. Three parallel case studies were conducted to explore the actual work of school library team members. Ways of working with teachers and each other were explored in interviews and focus groups and the characteristics of information service provision were compared with those reflected in the wider literature. While many practices were affirmed for their positive influence on teaching and learning, areas for further development were identified. These are discussed in terms of creating change and strengthening learning outcomes.

Teaching Process

BACKGROUND: Academic courses of human anatomy need to be reviewed periodically by students to ensure better learning outcomes, especially when the teaching process became internet-dependent during the pandemic. AIM: Our study aims to explore pharmacy students’ opinions concerning the theoretical and practical elements of the anatomy course taught in the College of Pharmacy at Al-Rafidain University. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The ethical committee of the College of Pharmacy at Al-Rafidain University approved the study. We prepared a questionnaire (Cronbach’s Alpha = 0.735) to evaluate the positive and negative aspects of the teaching process. The questionnaire was presented as an online survey to pharmacy students (n = 305) who finished their anatomy course in two learning modalities, Internet-based learning (n1 = 105, 34.43%) and blended learning (BL) (n2 = 200, 65.57%). RESULTS: Participants of both groups were satisfied with the syllabus, using internet-based materials, and problem-based learning concerning the theoretical aspect of the course. Concerning practical knowledge, both groups preferred using cadavers instead of dummies, and they verified the beneficial effect of online educational materials and computer-based applications. Pharmacy students demanded more than one anatomy course, while students from the BL group considered the anatomy course duration insufficient. Concerning the practical knowledge, students’ marks were superior for students using BL, and the opposite was the case with theoretical knowledge. CONCLUSIONS: BL is favored by Iraqi undergraduate pharmacy students; perhaps, it is attributed to the lively interaction between students and the teaching staff. We conclude that internet resources can be supportive of the classical teaching of anatomy.

The Impact

La lectura en la etapa escolar es supremamente importante y la biblioteca ha cumplido una especial labor en la enseñanza y el aprendizaje, pues esta ejerce una influencia sobre el logro académico en los estudiantes, sin embargo estas no siempre son utilizadas con la eficiencia y eficacias pertinentes, tal es el caso del  uso que se le da a la biblioteca de la  Unidad Educativa Informática. El objetivo de esta experiencia  fue    Investigar  la  incidencia  del  uso  de  la  biblioteca  en  el  proceso  de  enseñanza- aprendizaje en dicha unidad educativa. Para la puesta en marcha de este trabajo se encuestaron 112 estudiantes con el propósito de comprobar el uso eficaz   de las nuevas tecnologías a través de la biblioteca escolar. Se concluyó que hay falta de gestión administrativa para dotar de insumos informáticos  a la biblioteca de la institución lo que trae como resultado la poca  motivación  por lo que existe poca espontaneidad del estudiante por  ingresar a la misma.  Palabras claves: biblioteca, influencia, enseñanza-aprendizaje- estudiantes- informático  Deficiencies of the effective use of school libraries    Abstract  The reading on the school stage is extremely important and the library has played a special role in teaching and learning, as this has an influence on academic achievement in students, but these are not always used with the efficiency, such is the case of the use that is given to the library In the Computer Educational Unit. The objective of this experiment was to investigate the impact of library use in the teaching-learning process in this Educational Unit. For the implementation of this study there was applied survy to 112 students in order to verify the effective use of new technologies through the school library. It was concluded that there is a lack of administrative management computer to provide inputs to the library of the institution, resulting in the   low motivation and the little spontaneity of student library use.

Drama, because of its practical requirements, would seem to be one of the last courses to benefit from the incorporation of online learning technologies. Yet, by embedding web based conferencing in the curriculum, and utilising the graphic and communication capabilities of the web, there is an exciting opportunity to enrich the learning environment in drama. Predictably, such innovations have an impact on the pedagogy. In this paper the authors (unit coordinator and educational developer) report on evaluations conducted over two years in Elements of Drama, a first year university unit. We particularly refer to the impact of the introduction of a compulsory, online collaborative assignment and the change this made to the teaching and learning outcomes. We discuss the changing pattern of delivery of this unit which now affords both on campus and distance students more opportunities for interaction and communication. We evaluate the effectiveness of the online assignment and discuss the factors that contributed to its success.

Goals And Objectives

Flexible scheduling in school libraries can provide a mechanism for achieving the learning goals and objectives of both the school library program and the curriculum by making information available at the point of need and by promoting use of the library and its services at a relevant moment instead of on a predetermined schedule. This study examined the successful implementation of flexible scheduling in six elementary schools where no funding was received to support implementation. Telephone interviews with librarians, principals, and teachers provided the data. The preliminary results indicate that, in those schools with successful implementations, flexible scheduling was only a tool to achieve another internal curricular objective, such as curriculum integration or literacy improvement. In addition, education of stakeholders is essential; and it must emphasize strategies for effective use of the programs supported by flexible scheduling and their potential learning outcomes rather than simply provide information on how flexible scheduling works.

This study aims to find out what the meaning of the evaluation is, then why the teacherneeds to conduct an evaluation of the learning program and what are the objects andtargets in the evaluation and how to carry out the evaluation of the program. This researchis motivated by the existence of an evaluation process of student learning outcomes andevaluation of the teaching process. When we see in the evaluation process only concernedwith evaluating learning outcomes, it seems less comprehensive. Therefore, it is necessaryto discuss program evaluation. Therefore the evaluation needs to be planned carefully,because it is related and involves many aspects. The method used in this study is a librarywhere data is taken from several reference books relating to the evaluation of learning.Then analyzed using a descriptive approach. Furthermore, the conclusion of this study isthe evaluation of Islamic education programs is an assessment of the design or activitythat is planned carefully to provide guidance to someone so that he can be a human beingwho can develop optimally in accordance with Islamic teachings. Furthermore, beforeevaluating the program, we must first pay attention to institutional objectives and thenspecialize in the field of PAI study and consider the competence of graduates as having:recognizing and behaving in accordance with the teachings of Islam, recognizing andexercising their rights and obligations, having employment ethics, and caring for theirenvironment , think logically critically, and be creative and communicate through variousmedia, enjoy beauty and get into a clean, fit and healthy life, have a sense of love and pridefor the nation and the motherland. Then in carrying out program evaluation can be doneby people from within (people involved in activities), and can also be people from outside(people who are not involved in program activities). The teacher is the implementer sothey know very well what is happening in the teaching and learning process. Teachersare important for improving the quality of teaching, to improve the teaching process thatwill be carried out at a later time. And the last way to carry out program evaluation isby preparing a questionnaire instrument, interview guidelines, observation guidelinesand so forth. The simplest way is to record the events experienced from daily activities inclass.
