An increasing number of students in primary school dislike maths, their motivation to solve problem tasks is declining, which results in poorer mathematical literacy. The above-mentioned issues can be solved only by applying innovative teaching approaches such as learning maths with the innovative learning environment MS Teams. Such learning is very interesting for students, knowledge testing is easier, and students get feedback immediately. Students are more motivated to learn math, which in turn means raising math literacy. Keywords: daily life problems, digital technology, innovative teaching approaches, mathematical literacy, MS Teams

The study aimed to emphasize that digital revolution has crucial influences on the field of education as in many other fields. The relevant influences have led to radical changes in terms of teaching and learning approaches approved in the field of education. The students in our age have quite different characteristics when compared to the past, and their expectations have been shaped accordingly. Hence, it is quite difficult to draw interest and curiosity of the students today to learning activities through the traditional teaching approaches. Moreover, it is not easy to overcome some problems regarding teaching and learning by obsolete approaches. In this regard, the educators today show highly much interest in the innovative teaching approaches that address the needs of this age. One of those approaches is flipped classroom model. In this study, the conceptual and historical foundations of the flipped classroom model as being one of the popular instructional models in recent years, theoretical background of the model, and the advantages and disadvantages of the model in teaching processes were highlighted. Furthermore, interpretations concerning what kind of a role flipped classroom model would play to get over some problems in the field of education were included.

This article outlines the author's experience designing and implementing an asynchronous online course. Designed as a complement to public health law externships at any location, the course addresses professionalism and strategic lawyering. The article further describes the author's fellowship journey, which emboldened her view that faculty must attempt to live the expectations we have for our students, and also declare our professional values, especially when teaching about policymaking which is fraught with values conflicts. It concludes with a call for others to pilot innovative teaching approaches to address both the crisis in legal education and pressing societal issues, thereby contributing to the health of our legal community.

The article presents the Nature-based socio-emotional approach and science education for primary school child as a necessary relation on two levels. At the conceptual level the approach is analysed through the prism of the cumulative effects of nature and society to the cognitive and socio-emotional development of the child’s personality: in primary school age cognitive and emotional-volitional mental processes are socially predetermined and have the essence of a result. At the applied level, the Nature-based socio-emotional approach is analysed through active learning in nature as an authentic learning environment – the focus is on the acquisition of knowledge, the formation of cognitive and socio-emotional skills to overcome consumer culture and sustainable development of nature. In this regard, the effects of active learning are viewed in sync with the learning environment, which collectively generate added value to learning and become a kind of „key“ to creating a modern vision of science education in primary school today .

Mathematical concepts are always useful in everyday life to solve problems at hand. Learning mathematics that is associated with the surrounding (contextual) circumstances, especially in the culture of an area, is expected to be able to improve the ability of students in learning. Learning mathematics which is associated with the culture of an area is called ethnomathematics. Moreover, the government is currently promoting literacy. Literacy in mathematics is called mathematical literacy/mathematical literacy is the knowledge to know and apply basic mathematics every day such as to communicate both orally and in writing, to reason, and to solve problems. This service is carried out through a zoom meeting application that is given to 6th semester students, as a preparation effort before students carry out the Introduction to Learning Environment (PLP) at school. This service method uses the ADDIE (Analyze, Design, Develop, Implementation, and Evaluation) model. In the results of this service, a discussion was held on the ethnomathematics of the Bentian Dayak tribe in relation to learning mathematics and participants were able to make mathematical literacy questions. In the end, participants will be able to apply ethnomathematics and mathematical literacy in learning
