Entire teams of psychologists, educators and mathematicians have studied the student aversion (and, to a certain extent, parent antipathy) to math classes, but they have also studied methods and ways to overcome this problem. They have tried to find a way to improve students’ activities, to make them more engaged in classes, and to increase their motivation. One of the opinions is that the student success requires their strong will, persistence, diligence and perseverance. Certainly, the competence, motivation and consistency of teachers, wholead them to the world of knowledge, have a great influence. One of the methods of achieving a positive influence of teachers, in the domain of increasing interest in mathematics and reducing aversion to it, is the use of interesting mathematical problems, in which the numerical value of the current calendar year or even the current date appears. The aim of this paper is to point out how the motivation of primary school students to adopt mathematical content can be increased. With concrete examples of interesting algebra problems, which tickle students’ fancy and make them think, we show how some lessons can be learned.","PeriodicalId":240124,"journal":{"name":"Facta Universitatis, Series: Teaching, Learning and Teacher Education","volume":"80 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126055486","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 connection between digital technologies and modernization of the learning process in museums is pointed out, which is more and more present, and is becoming an integral part of formal education. Museums, as institutions for the preservation of tradition and culture, are increasingly using digital media in their practice, as intermediaries in the development of a system of culture and tradition knowledge among the younger generations. The aim of this paper is to provide a chronological overview of new technologies used for learning in museums, based on the review and analysis of selected literature. For the purposes of this paper, all research studies are classified into four time frames in which the application of digital technologies in learning in museums can be monitored, from the first used tools to the appearance of virtual museums. The results of the research show that there is a connection between the development of new digital technologies and learning in museums, ie that the learning process in museums is modernized and changed in accordance with the development of modern digital tools. The paper concludes that today, learning in museums goes beyond existing traditional models, based on visits, lending of exhibits and lessons in museums and is increasingly becoming a modern learning process based on digital technologies.","PeriodicalId":240124,"journal":{"name":"Facta Universitatis, Series: Teaching, Learning and Teacher Education","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115531402","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 aim of this research is to determine the influence of phonetic gymnastics program on the development of fine motor skills of preschool children. The research was conducted on a sample of 30 respondents, children attending a younger educational group. The experimental program consisted of a phonetic gymnastics activities which consisted of three parts: introductory, main and final part of the activity, and was conducted for 12 weeks. The introductory part of the activity lasted for about five minutes and a complex of shaping exercises was conducted in it, followed by speaking exercises, e.g. imitating the blowing wind (whizz), the flying bee (buzz) and others. The main part of the activity lasted for 20 minutes, and in this part, various moving and speaking games and songs were used, in order to stimulate children's interest. For the purpose of this research, two subtests from the battery of BOT2 tests (Bruinkins – Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency, Second Edition) were applied: fine motor integration and manual dexterity. The obtained results confirmed the positive influence of programmed phonetic gymnastics on the fine motor skills of preschool children. The implementation of this type of treatment in preschool institutions would be of great benefit, especially because it is relatively short (about 30 minutes) and does not require special equipment and space.

Understanding different information is influenced by reader’s previous knowledge: the more previous knowledge readers have, the better they understand the text read. Considering that there are different texts genres, the texts within one genres are designed in a manner that each of them has their own writing style. As an assistance to memorize the facts related on the reading comprehension and to understand what is read, and when it is about all texts genres, the schemata technique is used. Some researchers states that in the readers’ memory there is predictable structure of knowledge which can be taken as a base that the readers, using these structures in reading, understand all texts genres easily. For improving students’ abilities to master the literature texts, especially the prose and poetic texts, the schemata technique is applied in this research. In the preliminary study, it is determined that the student’s achievements in mastering the prose texts were below the set criteria of the success, and that students were less motivated to learn, too. Students achieved an average of 70.20 points, while the criteria of the success set by the STIBA Academy were 75.00. After applying the schemata technique, students achieved an average of 85.85 points in the prose course and were more motivated to learn. In the preliminary study, in the poetry course, students achieved an average of 66.05 points, and the motivation to learn was low. After applying the schemata technique, students achieved an average of 84.15 points, and the motivation to learn increased. Based on the obtained results, it can be concluded that the application of the schemata technique affects the improvement of students' abilities to understand literary texts, especially prose and poetry, as well as their motivation to study these contents.

The study included male (N = 150) and female (N = 152) students. According to the self-reported frequency of physical activity during the week, outside PE, respondents were divided into three independent groups: lightly physically active (1 – 2 times per week; N = 69), moderately physically active (3 – 4 times per week; N = 153), and very physically active (more than 5 times per week; N = 80). For the purposes of this research, PEAS was used, which consists of 43 items, followed by a five-point Likert-type scale (1-strongly disagree – 5-strongly agree). The results showed that there were statistically significant differences between three groups in attitudes towards PE, Satisfaction, Comfort, Activity, and Teacher χ2(2) = 19.89, 17.10, 20.22, 23.78, and 7.19, respectively. Furthermore, Cohen`s d was moderate for Attitudes towards PE, Satisfaction, Comfort, and Activity (.50, .46, .51, .56), and small for teacher (.26). The differences between lightly (1 – 2 times per week) and moderately (3 – 4 times per week), and lightly and very (more than 5 times per week) physically active groups were significant. In conclusion, we can state that the overall attitudes of the students included in this research are strongly positive. Furthermore, students who are more active in extracurricular sports activities had more positive attitudes towards physical education classes.","PeriodicalId":240124,"journal":{"name":"Facta Universitatis, Series: Teaching, Learning and Teacher Education","volume":"103 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123621237","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}
