{"title":"CHANGING EDUCATIONAL POLICIES: IMPLICATIONS FOR ICT INTEGRATION IN SCIENCE INSTRUCTION AND PERFORMANCE OF STUDENTS IN GHANAIAN SENIOR HIGH SCHOOLS","authors":"M. Amedeker","doi":"10.33965/icedutech2020_202002l010","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.33965/icedutech2020_202002l010","url":null,"abstract":"Every country’s educational policy directs the implementation and success or otherwise of education outcomes. This study analysed some educational policies of the Ministry of Education of Ghana to determine the current state of use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in science instruction in senior high schools and its implications for students’ learning outcomes. Most of the policies aimed at promoting functional learning through use of ICTs. However, the various senior high school science syllabuses are not explicit on the use of ICTs such as computer, mobile technologies, print, audio-visual, radio and TV broadcasts as some of the means of integrating ICTs in teaching and learning. It was found that local stakeholders’ engagement in developing the various curricula is minimal as policy documents were developed by Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) with occasional involvement of few personnel from the Ministry. Despite the many policy directions and training workshops given to teachers, use of ICTs in instruction has remained at the policy stages with little or no ICTs integration into school science teaching. Also ICTs integration in science teaching at the senior high school levels has been constrained by uncoordinated and a flurry of policy implementation procedures and directions given by donor agents. Students’ performance in science examinations has not yielded the expected learning outcomes. It is recommended that education should be democratised to engage local practitioners of education rather than the many donor agencies seeking to correct the shortcomings of science teaching and learning.","PeriodicalId":109909,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Educational Technologies 2020","volume":"82 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125541997","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Behar","doi":"10.33965/icedutech2020_202002l009","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.33965/icedutech2020_202002l009","url":null,"abstract":"This paper aims to identify limitations and opportunities for using live streaming for distance learning classes in a course offered at a Brazilian public university. The number of videos on social networks in different fields and about various topics increases each year. Real-time classes are also increasingly being used in distance learning courses. Live streaming through YouTube enables an interactive experience because it allows for images, videos, music, and screenshots to be used during the broadcast. This enhances the experience and interaction between the spectator and presenter and enables real-time discussions. A distance learning course was offered in the first semester of 2019 (between May and July) to foster discussions about pedagogical architectures for the construction of digital competences in Distance Learning (DL). During the course, six classes were live-streamed and broadcast via YouTube. There was one class per week, lasting an average of 40 minutes each and covering distinct topics. This is a qualitative case study with 14 subjects between the ages of 35 and 64. They were primarily female and mainly their mobile devices to watch the classes. Different types of data collection instruments were applied including an online questionnaire and YouTube video platform metrics. The students reported that the classes were essential for interaction and helped to answer their questions due to real-time feedback, which qualifies the teaching and learning processes. The metrics from the YouTube platform revealed that the videos were watched mainly in Brazil and the United States, with over 1,500 views so far, 10% of which had live interactions through chat. This example shows both the range and engagement of students with the live streamed classes as well as the possibilities for interaction. Therefore, live-streamed classes are important for DL courses and should be integrated in planning in order to contribute to the distance learning process.","PeriodicalId":109909,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Educational Technologies 2020","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128933224","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Acheson","doi":"10.33965/icedutech2020_202002c014","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.33965/icedutech2020_202002c014","url":null,"abstract":"As online education becomes more and more ubiquitous in higher education, instructors are constantly seeking new ways to improve online teaching. Much has been done to increase the effective use of Learning Management Systems and to use student digital footprints to predict learning outcomes, however, prominent teaching strategies such as interpersonal interactions and immediate feedbacks that are common in brick and mortar classrooms are minimized in online learning or replaced by email communications and message board postings. Online education is gradually becoming technology-centered rather than human centered and lack of instructor intervention is still the number one disadvantage of online education. This paper proposes a virtual classroom approach that brings human interactions into online learning. It maximizes the opportunity students can interact with instructor and their peers, and effectively integrates traditional classroom teaching techniques with digital materials. The paper explains how traditional techniques can be adjusted to suit online teaching, and how to help students gain a sense of community, a strong human bond and a rich classroom experience in a virtual learning environment. Course evaluation result shows that student satisfaction rate from the trial class increased significantly over the average of previous semesters.","PeriodicalId":109909,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Educational Technologies 2020","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131319256","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Responsibility of reducing plastic use and waste is more dependent on highly educated people than normal people as highly educated people are social reform leaders. This study is a guideline M-Learning or Mobile Learning which is teaching and learning through courseware offering content and activities via wireless network technology and wireless internet network technology Telecommunication Network so that learners can learn anywhere, anytime. In this study, the researcher studied only plastic wastage and smart phone usage with the objective to 1) study plastic waste and smartphone usage behaviors of graduate students and 2) study the relationship between plastic waste and smartphone usage behavior in the classroom and academic performance by collecting data using a purposive sampling of different learning styles; including observation, inquiries and interview forms for master and doctoral students at the Faculty of Education, Industry and Technology of King Mongkut's Institute of Technology at Ladkrabang, with 7 people. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and chi-square test. The results of the research revealed that 1) Most students use their smart phones in their classrooms to research information while doing their assigned activities causing increased plastic use and waste but without paying much attention to waste pollution because it was felt that the subject matter is not linked directly to pollution management. Students are aware of this problem but do not take it seriously. In addition, mobile phones are used to take pictures or listen to music, communicate in and outside the classroom, not deemed related to plastic pollution and 2) Smartphone behavior has a relationship with the academic performance of students with statistical significance at the level of 0.00.","PeriodicalId":109909,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Educational Technologies 2020","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121126511","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study summarized 13 studies to see whether there is a positive effect of AHLS comparing with the traditional learning in general contexts, and then see whether two factors, Learning Style Theory Choosing and Additional Adaptors, would moderate this effect. The result found that AHLS has a positive effect on student’s academic performance, but the moderating effect of two covariate was non-significant. Based on this, the study further gave some suggestions of application AHLS in classroom.","PeriodicalId":109909,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Educational Technologies 2020","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133451500","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The educational environment is not aloof from this digital evolution and there are several initiatives to apply technologies in the education on several subjects, being this paper focused on Accountancy undergraduate program. This paper is based on a qualitative research method comprising the review of the literature as well as the participant observation of two semesters of the course Accounting Information Systems at the University of São Paulo. It is possible to observe that the digital technologies increase the dynamics in the teaching-learning process, however it is necessary to be mindful that the technology is not the end, instead it is the mean. The digital technology use has a broader impact than a mere tool, because the current technologies have potential to interact with people and allow them to reorganize their thinking process. For scholars, several possibilities unfold to fulfill the learning objectives, going far beyond blackboard and books. For professors, there is the challenge of being trained, adapt and incorporate the technologies in the classroom.","PeriodicalId":109909,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Educational Technologies 2020","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128649941","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
