In this paper we study some theoretical issues related to the teaching of geometric concepts to students with Special Learning Difficulties, focusing on the teaching material. We present the design, implementation and results of a qualitative research conducted with six 9th grade students in a Special Vocational High School in Greece, on the use of the website “Byrne’s Euclid” in the teaching of propositions of Euclidean Geometry. The research showed that the children understood the key points of the proof of the proposition we presented and they assimilated basic geometric concepts and processes using colors and figures. The paper concludes with a discussion upon suggestions, perspectives and limitations for teaching that utilizes Byrne’s Euclid.","PeriodicalId":162221,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Education and Pedagogy","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131185897","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 purpose of this study was to explore the deputy principals’ disciplinary role in enhancing students’ academic performance in secondary schools, in Bungoma South Sub-County, Kenya. A student’s academic performance is the sum of all curriculum implementation achievements as depicted from formative, continuous and summative evaluations, both internal and external. This study was necessitated by the need for an elaborate framework that could recognize the disciplinary functions of the deputy principal’s office in secondary schools that occasion academic success. The study was grounded on Hargreaves’ Capital Theory of School Effectiveness and Improvement of 2001. From the findings, there was an equivalent 79.55% agreement with suggested academic performance enhancement indicators. The Pearson’s correlational coefficients between the independent variables and the dependent variable ranged between 0.005 at 0.01 confidence level and 0.023 to 0.029 at 0.05 confidence level. This implied that a significant correlation between students’ academic performance and the disciplinary role of deputy principals in secondary schools in the Bungoma South sub-county was found to exist. The findings of the study have implications for policy, research, and practice.","PeriodicalId":162221,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Education and Pedagogy","volume":"85 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128619541","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}

As we know listening to a message is not as simple as hearing it, the listener must comprehend the message and respond properly. In Vietnam, from primary schools to high schools, many of them place more emphasis on grammar, reading and vocabulary rather than speaking and listening. Students do not have many chances to practice listening in class and outside class as well. As a result, many English majors have problems in listening comprehension, especially freshmen who lack experience and do not have suitable learning methods. Thus, this paper aims to investigate difficulties in listening comprehension faced by students as well reasons of these difficulties. Both qualitative and quantitative methods were employed in the study to collect data. The study results reveal the difficulties and causes which are related to listening materials, listeners, and facilities. It is recommended that students should be exposed to a wider range of listening techniques and applying listening strategies. In addition, teachers play a crucial role in determining the listening techniques to use and how to adapt them in order to help students overcome the listening challenge.","PeriodicalId":162221,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Education and Pedagogy","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134262332","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}

Children articulate their wonder and excitement while engaging with an artwork and it is evident through their spontaneous responses. Aesthetic experience is regarded as fundamental to human existence. Experiencing and enjoying artworks help children to encounter diversities and prepare them for a facing challenge in life. The objective of the present quantitative study is to explore the relation between personality traits and art appreciation of children. The sample constituted sixty children of grade IX from the state of Telangana. The number of boys and girls participated in the study from rural and urban backgrounds are equal and children are in the age group of 13-15 years. Children’s artistic preferences are measured by showing 48 images of artworks of two dimensions: ‘abstractedness’ and ‘complexity’. The ‘abstractedness’ dimension include representational/realistic, semi-representational and highly abstract artworks and the ‘complexity’ dimension encompass low complexity, medium complexity, and high complexity artworks. Each group has four types of paintings: landscape, portrait, still life and animal representations. The results of analysis of the relation between children’s personality traits and their art preferences using Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient (r) reveals that Agreeableness and Conscientiousness is moderately positively correlated with the perceived attractiveness of abstract paintings which is statistically significant. The results do not show any statistically significant correlation between Openness to Experience and perceived attractiveness for abstract artworks. Further, there exists a low negative correlation between Neuroticism and perceived attractiveness for abstract artworks which is statistically significant. There are no significant correlations between children’s personality traits and perceived attractiveness for Realistic, High Complexity and Low Complexity artworks. The research findings are an indication for teachers to better design their classroom activities for enriching the lives of children.","PeriodicalId":162221,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Education and Pedagogy","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129556883","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}

One hundred (100) pupils were selected at random from five public primary schools. It was revealed from the findings that pupils have little know of participle form of verb inflections. Findings show that of all the verb inflections of participle form by pupils, 0nly 37% was correctly used and 63% was misused. Out of the 63% misused, 31% was a misuse of –ing form, 6% was a misuse of –ed form and 26% was a misuse of –en form. Pupils mostly overgeneralized rules of regular verbs for irregular verbs. From the research data, pupils misuse past –ed for –en and –en for –ed. The findings revealed that the pupils often exhibit variability with respect to the realization of verb-participle inflectional morphemes by either making wrong substitution of a particular kind of inflection for another or omitting inflections outrightly.","PeriodicalId":162221,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Education and Pedagogy","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132869058","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}
