University Setting

The use of effective teaching strategies should be developed from teachers’ reflections on educational needs. This study has a twofold objective: to identify needs in teaching-learning processes in the university setting as well as to present and examine the effectiveness of four psychodramatic techniques: psychodramatic images, soliloquy, role-playing and roda viva. A qualitative design using thematic analysis was followed. All 128 teachers participating in the Training in Teaching Skills: Educational Psychodrama (nine courses) were evaluated. Teachers (62.5% women) were from different disciplines. Two semi-structured group interviews were conducted using the focus group procedure. Focus groups were held at the beginning and end of each course (18 in total). The phases of thematic analysis were used as discourse analysis strategies. Teachers reported the need to develop active teaching practices with large groups, strategies to motivate students and skills for conflict resolution with students. Concerning psychodramatic techniques, emphasis was placed on the psychodramatic images to promote active learning and group construction of contents, exploring previous ideas and as an evaluation resource. In addition, the structured use of role-playing was positively assessed. These results identify specific teaching needs and support the use of psychodramatic techniques as a valuable educational resource in higher education.

RESUMEN En la actual sociedad de la información y del conocimiento se observa cómo la proliferación y el auge de los dispositivos móviles, hacen surgir nuevos modelos de aprendizaje que reformulan las metodologías didácticas, organizativas, y de formación de los currículos, para innovar en educación (Moreno Martínez, Leiva Olivencia, & Matas Terrón, 2016). Los estudios que identifican las tecnologías emergentes que podrían impactar en el aprendizaje, la enseñanza y la investigación, prevén el aumento del uso y la incorporación de dispositivos y aplicaciones móviles en las aulas (Reig, 2013; Reig & Vílchez, 2013). Destaca el aprendizaje basado en juegos o gamificación, que permite desarrollar procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje que facilitan la cohesión, la integración y la motivación, potenciando la creatividad del alumnado. Crear juegos entretenidos motivará al alumnado para que participe de forma activa en clase, fomentará una sana competencia entre los jugadores, y hará del aprendizaje algo más divertido (Aleksić-Maslać, Rašić, & Vranešić, 2018). Utilizando Kahoot en dispositivos móviles como soporte para las clases de Dirección de Operaciones del Grado en Administración y Dirección de Empresas de la Universidad de Cádiz, se consiguió motivar al alumnado y, aun existiendo otros factores determinantes, mejorar sus resultados de evaluación.   ABSTRACT In today's information and knowledge society, the proliferation and rise of mobile devices has led to the emergence of new learning models that reformulate didactic, organizational and curricular training methodologies in order to innovate in education (Moreno Martínez, Leiva Olivencia, & Matas Terrón, 2016). Studies that identify emerging technologies that could impact learning, teaching and research, foresee increased use and incorporation of mobile devices and applications in classrooms (Reig, 2013; Reig & Vílchez, 2013). Learning based on games or gamification stands out, which allows the development of teaching-learning processes that facilitate cohesion, integration and motivation, boosting students' creativity. Creating entertaining games will motivate students to participate actively in class, encourage healthy competition between players, and make learning more fun (Aleksić-Maslać, Rašić, & Vranešić, 2018). Using Kahootin mobile devices as support for the classes of Operations Management of the Degree in Business Administration and Management of the University of Cadiz, it was possible to motivate the students and, although there are other determining factors, to improve their evaluation results.

A educação escolar indígena disseminou-se entre os povos indígenas do Brasil, tornando-se mais ou menos acessível, de acordo com os contextos políticos estaduais e municipais responsáveis pela educação. Os preceitos e regulamentos da Constituição Federal exigem que as escolas indígenas sejam específicas, diferenciadas e bilíngues. Esses preceitos são, em certo grau, confrontados com barreiras socio-culturais impostas pelos responsáveis pela educação escolar indígena que não são indígenas e que, por isso, não possuem o entendimento necessário para desenvolver processos de ensino-aprendizagem específicos para cada povo. Esta fala é uma reflexão sobre esse contexto, baseada em experiências com pesquisas e estudos sobre a educação escolar indígena envolvendo povos Xerénte, Krahô, Pyhcopcatijí, Ràmkokamekrá-Canela e Apinajé. Demonstramos que um entendimento claro do ensino específico do processo de aprendizagem de cada povo é essencial para implementar os preceitos constitucionais relativos à educação escolar indígena.

Partiendo de la conceptualización de los problemas afectivos derivados del contacto (PADC) estudiamos su influencia en el aprendizaje de Rugby, Balonmano y Voleibol. El trabajo, desarrollado en el contexto universitario (n=16), se aborda dentro del paradigma cualitativo, mediante el análisis de contenido y con el apoyo de estrategias cuantitativas, siguiendo los Métodos Mixtos. El estudio prospectivo de los datos permitió describir la realidad a estudiar y el refinamiento de la metodología, centrada en el método de análisis de diarios con entrevista sobre los diarios, con el apoyo de herramientas informáticas de análisis cualitativo (Nvivo). Los resultados muestran la existencia de PADC y su influencia negativa en el aprendizaje de tareas motrices de los deportes estudiados. Las emociones que suscitan la aparición de estos problemas están fundamentalmente relacionadas con el miedo, aunque también con la ansiedad y/o la vergüenza. Además, se describen cuáles son los tipos de contactos que generan esos problemas. Igualmente, se concretan 29 factores que podrían ser valorados para disminuir la aparición de los PADC en procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje de tareas motrices que impliquen contacto. La importancia de cada uno de estos factores varía en función del tipo de contacto que requiera la tarea motriz. From the conceptualization of emotional problems related to contact (EPRC), we study its influence in the learning of Rugby, Handball and Volleyball. This research, developed at the university sphere (n=16), is framed within qualitative framework through the analysis of content assisted with quantitative strategies (Mixed Methods).. The prospective study of the data allowed the description of the reality in study and the refinement in methodology. So, the method focused on the analysis of diaries with interviews about them with the support of computer tools of qualitative analysis (NVivo). The results show the existence of EPRC and its negative influence in the learning of motor tasks of the aforementioned sports. The emotions that facilitate the appearance of these problems are fundamentally related to fear, but also to anxiety or shame. In addition, the types of contacts that generate these problems are described. Furthermore, there were specified 29 factors that could be considerated to decrease the appearance of EPRCs in contact motor tasks teaching-learning processes. The importance of each of these factors varies depending on the type of contact that the motor task requires. Partindo da conceituação de problemas afectivos derivados do contacto (PADC), estudamos sua influência na aprendizagem de Rugby, Handebol e Voleibol. O trabalho, desenvolvido no contexto universitário (n=16), é abordado dentro do paradigma qualitativo, através do método de análise de conteúdo e com o apoio de estratégias quantitativas, seguindo os Métodos Mistos.. O estudo prospectivo dos dados permitiu descrever a realidade a ser estudada e o aprimoramento da metodologia, centrada no método de análise de diários com entrevista sobre os diários, com o apoio duma ferramenta computacional de análise qualitativa (Nvivo). Os resultados mostram a existência do PADC e sua influência negativa no aprendizagem de tarefas motoras dos desportos observados. As emoções produtoras desses problemas estão fundamentalmente relacionadas ao medo, mas também à ansiedade ou vergonha. Além disso, são descritos os tipos de contactos que geram esses problemas. Da mesma forma, foram especificados 29 fatores que poderiam ser avaliados para diminuir a aparência dos PADCs nos processos de ensino-aprendizagem de tarefas motoras que envolvem contacto. A importância de cada um desses fatores varia de acordo com o tipo de contacto que a tarefa motora exige.

The Impact

Introduction: While most of the institution in our country follow the Flexnerian model of medical education, only a handful of medical colleges have embraced the integrated medical curriculum. Literature on impact of integration on the preclinical disciplines is sparse. This study aims to elucidate the impact of integration on the preclinical disciplines, their content, teaching, learning, and assessment. Methods: This qualitative exploratory study was conducted at the University College of Medicine and Dentistry from July to September 2020. Twenty-one semi-structured interviews were conducted with the faculty members from pre-clinical disciplines (Physiology, Anatomy, Biochemistry, Pharmacology, Pathology, Forensic Medicine & Community Medicine). The data was recorded, transcribed, coded and thematic analysis was done by using Atlas Ti version 7. Results: The thematic analysis of the transcripts resulted in twenty subthemes, from which five themes emerged. The study revealed that the faculty of preclinical disciplines perceived that departmental identity has been compromised since the switch to integrated medical curriculum. But, the relationships, both intradepartmental and interdepartmental of preclinical disciplines have improved significantly. Moreover, the number and depth of topics has also been affected. But the students learning approach was of major concern for the respondents. The student’s performance in the assessments was affected due to their learning approaches. Even though the number of assessments were deemed adequate, the depth of assessments had been negatively affected as a result of integrated assessments. Conclusion: Integrated curriculum has profound impact on pre-clinical disciplines. Any institution that wishes to introduce a modular integrated curriculum should take into account the findings reported in this study.

Content Characteristics

Feedback is an essential part of the teaching/learning processes. This statement is especially true in the introductory communication course where students receive feedback throughout the presentational speaking process. This paper explores how students define useful feedback based on 1,600 qualitative questionnaires that asked students about their perceptions of feedback. A thematic analysis of a randomly selected subset of 163 responses uncovered two themes: (1) feedback content characteristics (e.g., specific, constructive, praiseworthy, and purposive) and (2) process of instructor-provided feedback (e.g., iterative, timely). Based on these findings, a set of best practices for providing feedback is offered as a means to improve teaching/learning in the introductory communication course.

This chapter attempts to explore the relevance of Mono-grade methodology for teaching-learning processes in primary schools, considering their contextual and spatial specificities. The analyses employ the findings from fieldwork done in rural schools of the Rishi Valley Education Centre (RVEC), Andhra Pradesh and government primary schools in the Uttarkashi district of Uttarakhand, investigating the meaning of Mono-grade methodology and RVEC’s Multi-Grade Multi-Level (MGML) methodology. These comparative meanings are informed by the promise and practice of MGML in RVEC and primary schools that function amidst the precarity induced by disasters and low-cost private schools in Uttarkashi. In conclusion, it locates the possibilities of context specific teaching-learning process in schools outside the paradigm of standardized Mono-grade teaching-learning processes in primary schools in India.
