Despite the efforts to implement modern approaches to science education, reducing the level of students’ knowledge and skills is observable in some areas. The skills focused on the interpretation of data from tables and graphs and the ability to apply functions to solve problems were an important area for testing mathematical literacy in The OECD’s Programme for International Student Assessment (OECD PISA) 2012. Lack of skills in the use of different mathematical functions causes problems in mathematical modelling of real situations. Our research is currently aimed at developing inquiry skills of students in mathematics and diagnosing the level of their development. Inquiry based science education (IBSE) could bring improving conceptual understanding of mathematical knowledge and could increase the activity of students in learning. In the paper, we present our first experience with testing the level of development of selected students’ inquiry skills. We focus on the evaluation of tasks requiring working with different representations of data and understanding of linear functions. The paper presents also interactive learning activities that are part of our innovative methods based on applying inquiry approach to teaching linear and quadratic functions. The interactive learning activities for the investigation of the properties of functions are implemented in the dynamic geometric system Geogebra and in the spreadsheet MS Excel.","PeriodicalId":242007,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Communication Technologies in Education","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133829766","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 relationship between mathematics, teaching and computers are long-standing and complex. The actual practice of mathematics has changed its nature considerably because of the availability of powerful computers, both in the workplace and on researches’ desks. Several software systems are available for mathematics teachers, among which have dynamic geometry systems a significant presence. Although various forms of education for teachers are currently organized and teachers have at their disposal a variety of learning materials and ideas for teaching, it is questionable to what extent these factors are reflected in school practice. The article describes a survey which was aimed to assess the state of the use of dynamic geometry systems in mathematics teaching at elementary and secondary schools and to find out teachers’ views about suitability and possibilities of using it to improve mathematics education. The survey was conducted by questionnaire and subsequently also by interviews with teachers.","PeriodicalId":242007,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Communication Technologies in Education","volume":"76 12","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133007332","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}

Attention is devoted to student-teacher friendships within online network sites. The study includes a description of specific habits as well as a discussion of how teachers make decisions and what influences them. The research has used in-depth semi-structured interviews, focusing on ICT teachers with differing views on the issue in question. Our investigations have been supported by triangulation, which involved accessing information about given teachers on social network sites. Data gained from interviews and triangulation has been processed using open coding. The results of our investigation show that teachers appreciate SNS because of the possibility to communicate and keep in touch with people they know, including former pupils. Teachers are concerned about the risks associated with using SNS, particularly security and privacy risks, and they feel even more under threat due to their occupation. Some teachers decided not to reject their pupils’ friend requests for educational reasons, claiming SNS serve as a channel of communication to support teaching and learning.","PeriodicalId":242007,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Communication Technologies in Education","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114646414","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 new publication of a monograph focusing on field didactics showed that a complex analysis of the current state and future perspectives of developments in informatics education that has not yet been addressed is needed. This paper presents an overview of development in the discipline from the 1960s, defines the main goals of informatics education in the Czech Republic, namely the contents and methods of ICT and computer science education, the need to revise the content areas in official pedagogical documents, teacher education including training of primary teachers and methodology of research in the field of informatics education. The authors of the paper analyse current trends that have impact on informatics education and also refer to the dynamics of computer science education, gradual shift of computer science to lower school levels and introduction of new computer science topics into the area of information and communication technologies. In the conclusion the authors formulate the current problems that informatics education will have to tackle and indicate the possible dangers and perspectives of its future developments. In this article, we distinguish between informatics education as a school subject education and computer science education and ICT education which we understand as parts of this school subject in this context.","PeriodicalId":242007,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Communication Technologies in Education","volume":"72 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125758119","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 teacher can resolve such a situation in an appropriate manner, by encouraging the creativity of the “fast” students. This article is concerned with the possibilities of increasing students’ activity in classes where computer simulation of electronic circuits is used. Using a particular example of a simulation experiment, it shows one possible option for how to engage students in the classwork. To achieve this, the function of “fault”, available in the majority of electronic virtual computing labs, is used. This feature allows a teacher to assign one of three possible errors to a selected component; students have no direct way to find out which component is faulty. To resolve the problem, they must use their own creativity and effort, their own ideas, knowledge, and skills, and the tools that they have available in the electronic laboratory.","PeriodicalId":242007,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Communication Technologies in Education","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130109398","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}

Its application in teaching specific subject is not very simple. Initiative teachers have encountered many questions, which include the selection and development of specific types of activities that can allow students to extensively utilize the potential of the selected robotic kit. In our research we have been working with educational robotics in informatics at lower secondary school. In this paper we focus on the fifth grade students, which worked with robotic kit LEGO WeDo. We analysed different types of activities, where pupils were programming the robotic model with usage of motion sensor. Our aim was to identify what types of activities the pupils resolved correctly and in what types of activities pupils most often made mistakes. In pursuit of that, we can create a more concise and easier to understand version of tasks to program the robotic model. These activities are part of the curriculum with educational robotics, which we have been developing within our doctoral research. We have been conducting design base research within we chose qualitative methods of data collection and data analysis. Based on data analysis, we found that in most cases pupils solved prepared tasks, in which they worked with programs from the worksheets (modifying the program, explaining the differences between the two programs and completing programs). Pupils mostly made mistakes in explaining a particular program and in creating a certain sequence of commands in program. In the next phase of our research we are going to modify mentioned activities so pupils can better acquire problem solving skills, programming skills and communication and collaboration skills.","PeriodicalId":242007,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Communication Technologies in Education","volume":"63 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125892342","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}
