ABSTRACTThe interest to improve math performance involves people in different areas of life therefore may be useful for the progress of society. Frequently efforts are focused in order to obtain an ideal performance in math during Primary and  Secondary  school.  But  the  bases  for  learning  are  acquired  earlier  (Clements  &  Sarama,  2007).  It  is  importantidentify  and  overcome  difficulties  to  improve  performance  at  children  in  kindergarten  and the  first  school  grades (Gersten,  Jordan,  &  Light,  2005). This  research  attempted  to  link  current  Educational  Sciences  knowledge  and Psychology,  connecting  them  with  educational  software  that  can  be  applied  in  math  learning  difficulties  during  the earlier  school  years.  Using  computer  as  an  educational  tool,  students  make  activities  based  on  tangible  situations contributing  to  understand  the  environment  and  allowing  them  to  start  acquisition  of  mathematical  knowledge  and building the logical and mathematical thinking on motivating and effective way.RESUMENEl interés por mejorar el rendimiento en matemáticas puede ser útil para el progreso de la sociedad ya que afecta a las personas en diversas áreas de la vida. Normalmente se dirigen esfuerzos a la obtención de un óptimo rendimiento en matemáticas durante las etapas de Educación Primaria y Secundaria, pero los pilares en los que se asientan los aprendizajes se adquieren antes (Clements & Sarama, 2007). Por esta razón es importante identificar y superar los obstáculos que impiden un buen rendimiento en Educación Infantil y los primeros cursos de Educación Primaria (Gersten, Jordan, & Flojo, 2005). Nuestro trabajo ha tratado de conjugar los conocimientos existentes sobre las ciencias de la educación y la psicología, plasmándolos en un software didáctico con posibilidad de aplicación en el ámbito de las dificultades de aprendizaje matemático durante los primeros cursos escolares. A través del uso del ordenador como herramienta educativa podemos lograr que el alumnado realicen actividades basadas en situaciones reales que contribuyan a la comprensión del mundo que le rodea y, en última instancia, que les permitan iniciarse en la adquisición del lenguaje matemático, y la construcción del pensamiento lógico-matemático de una manera atractiva y eficaz.

The Subject

The subject of this study is to investigate causes of students’ disinterest in education department or domain (secondary school of Mavlana Aznab Sheberghani). The essential and important objective of this study is to identify causes of students’ disinterest in math subject. This study was a filed and applied research. The instrument was questionnaire and filled in by students in the field. One of the reasons of students’ disinterest in math subject in secondary school is weaknesses in foundation and mathematical thinking. In math instruction, these are the problems that need to be considered: to have professional teachers, qualified and strong management and leadership based on the system of reward and punishment, use of technology in teaching math subject, and use of appropriate curriculum based on society’s needs. These are the primary needs of our society. The importance of theoretical research is to examine various theories on the title of study (causes of students’ disinterest in math subject) and find out different variables and answer to the research questions appropriately. The importance of research is to find out the causes of lack of progress in learning math subject. The results indicate that there are lots of barriers and problems in math learning among students. It is important to increase students’ interests and motivation by eliminating the problems.

El Tenis de Mesa es un deporte que cada vez se practica más en todo el mundo, tanto en el campo federativo y competitivo como en el educativo y recreativo. La utilización, cada vez más frecuente, del Tenis de Mesa como contenido en las clases de Educación Física en centros de enseñanza Primaria y Secundaria, hace que cobre especial importancia su adecuada enseñanza, puesto que a través de su práctica se puede formar a la persona en los distintos ámbitos: motor, afectivo, cognitivo y social. Enseñanza que, en nuestra opinión, debe partir de las características del deporte y de sus potencialidades educativas, aunque como es bien sabido, el deporte puede ser, o no, educativo, dependiendo de la utilización que hagamos del mismo. Por lo que, y siguiendo a Tabernero, Márquez, y Llanos (2002), la figura clave de la iniciación deportiva va a ser el técnico/profesor. Por este motivo, abogamos por una práctica educativa del Tenis de Mesa.Abstract: The table tennis is a sport which is practised increasingly in the world, so much in the federative and competitive fields as educative and recreative ones. The frequent use of the table tennis as content in the physical education lessons makes that its suitable teaching receives special importance, because with its practice we can educate people in different fields: motor, affective, cognitive and social. We think that this teaching must begin from characteristics of the sport and its educational possibilities, even though, as it is known, sport can be, or not, educative, depending on the use that we made of it. Following to Tabernero, Márquez, y Llanos (2002), the main person will be the coach/teacher in the sports initiation. For this reason we defend an educational practice of the table tennis.

This chapter presents an overview of aspects that may influence women and men religious on their religious vocational decision during their childhood with their family and parish, their attendance of primary and secondary school, their participation in parish life, and their college years. The influential aspects addressed are: attending Mass regularly and devotional practices, having the opportunity to discuss and receive encouragement from others to discern a religious vocation, the witness of men and women religious, and being engaged in youth and voluntary ministry programs. The chapter concludes that while not every individual religious has opportunities to experience these activities in various environments before he or she decides to enter religious life, all the aspects complement one another and have an impact on religious vocational discernment and decision-making.
