In particular, it focuses on learning outcomes and overall experience concerning the development of learning competences through the use of a wiki in Social Science lessons and realized through the content and language integrated learning (CLIL). Although the main objective of the pedagogical experiment was to enhance English communication skills, the inevitable part of the experiment was to implement wiki tools into autonomous home learning, mainly to create such a learning environment which supports English communication, and particularly to examine the wiki potential for the development of learning competences. Moreover, the pedagogical experiment was supposed to show the extent of students’ effort to create and use wiki materials for their learning and cooperation. In the first part, various aspects of implementing learning competences into the learning process are dealt. In the second part, the general concept of a wiki (wikispaces) is introduced, including the practical usage for enhancing learning competences. Followed by research questions and research methodology, where three stages of the teaching and learning process involved in the experiment are introduced, the final part of the paper deals with the outcomes and summarizes their beneficial contributions to a wiki-based pedagogy.","PeriodicalId":242007,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Communication Technologies in Education","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131235526","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}

Specific knowledge and routines are described whilst discussing the ways teachers are influenced in these areas. In-depth semi-structured interviews have been carried out with chosen ICT teachers. Teachers were presented with several situations from the issue in question and the way they reacted in given situations was observed. Data gained from the interviews and the triangulation that had been carried out was processed through open and axial coding. The results of our investigation show that teachers do usually try to behave in a relatively safe way but their reasons for such behaviour differ greatly. The main external determiners include reactions to a certain negative experience, active self-study of the issue and organised instruction (not only at high schools and universities but voluntary attendance of courses). Factors preventing teachers from behaving as safely as possible have been identified. It may be due to working or teaching limitations. Teachers might lack professional knowledge or there could be a problem with security, perhaps being time-consuming or difficult to remember passwords.","PeriodicalId":242007,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Communication Technologies in Education","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122311229","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}

I put emphasis on involving students in practical activities, so the results of my research are several worksheets. All worksheets include basic procedure. Each part of worksheet is complemented by sub-questions that deepen knowledge of students and it provides welcomed feedback for teacher. All these features are available as online applications on web pages and it can be used during ICT lessons. I tried worksheets on a significant sample of secondary school pupils and university students. As a result I discovered that students usually do not have possibility to solve this kind of exercise (using data from catalog of astronomical objects) at school. Students cannot handle basic transactions in the Excel spreadsheet, especially inserting formulas into cells, data sorting or constructing a simple chart.","PeriodicalId":242007,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Communication Technologies in Education","volume":"95 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126139046","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}

Despite the fact that the main part of the course is dedicated to the practical medical skills, it is suitable not only for students of full-time studies, but also for students of combined studies. The teaching of the course is organizationally demanding, because of which a Moodle e-learning course has been developed. The article describes the aims and the education process of the course Nursing Procedures and Interventions with the support of e-learning. It deals especially with the testing of theoretical knowledge of students within the e-learning course, which has three phases - when introduced to the course for the first time, during the course, and at the end of it. The article presents the comparison of the test results of different education periods. The article also deals with the more complicated issues and parts of the course and also compares students’ results with regard to their previous specialty - if they already encountered any kind of health studies or if the course is their first experience with this kind of education.","PeriodicalId":242007,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Communication Technologies in Education","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115816279","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 question is how this teaching method can be used within a specialised subject focused on teaching technical principles, in this case concerning the functionality of various computer networks and their components. The first task was to find appropriate software for such a method of teaching. Software simulating a computer network was chosen and modified curricula was used so that students could obtain crucial competencies for understanding networks by independently exploring them for themselves: how a prepared network operates, finding connections and formulating a written conclusion. The goal was to direct students to actively experiment with the assigned networks and research answers to the assigned questions. However, instead of simply being given outright answers, students were advised how to proceed in order to find solutions for themselves. Another aim was to familiarize future teachers with this method in the role of pupil. The data for the research was acquired from participant observation and the evaluation of the lessons via questionnaires and a group discussion on the benefits and drawbacks of this approach in the lessons in comparison with similar subjects taught traditionally. It was found that successful students started to ask questions which they were interested in and to go on inquiring to answer them. Although the students realized the benefits of the teaching approach, many of them were not prepared enough to work with this method (particularly due to the lack of knowledge of basic theoretical concepts).","PeriodicalId":242007,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Information and Communication Technologies in Education","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115291916","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}
