Možnosti e-learningu ve vzdělávání s přihlédnutím k psychologickým otázkám rozvojetvorného učení / E-learning possibilities in education taking into account psychological aspects of creative learningMazánek, Karel January 2014 (has links)
This diploma thesis is trying to critically look at education via e-learning, with the main topic being the possibilities which (with elaborated learning strategy) this form of education is able to offer. E-learning, in this work, is set into a society-wide context of education in the 21st century with regards to demographic development of the Czech population. Apart from the introduction and description of the main parts of e-learning courses, the thesis focuses on the creation process of these courses as such. Company/corporate experience, which is particularly beneficial here, is being widely used throughout this thesis. We consider it very important to theoretically elaborate on the term of 'creative learning' and show its contribution to the description of possibilities of e-learning in education. Afterwards, in the practical part, we focus on researching e-learning in chosen companies; in which we are trying to outline which way and how effectively e-learning is being used at chosen institutions. Key words: e-learning, e-learning course, education, e-learning possibilities, creative learning, corporate practice, education strategy.

Learning through performance : theatre, education and the First World War at the beginning of the centenary momentPhipps, Amanda Dawn January 2016 (has links)
This thesis explores representations of the First World War in English theatre, Theatre in Education (TIE), and Living History between 2014 and 2015. By employing an interdisciplinary approach it evaluates these performance genres in relation to responses sought from Key Stage 3 History pupils. The beginning of the centenary created a cultural outpouring and provided opportunities for secondary schools to include field trips and creative learning about the war. Examination of this commemorative period is contextualised by examining pupils’ interaction with cultural works since 1914, showing that the centenary moment stemmed from a tradition of creatively remembering and teaching the conflict. This perspective highlights long-standing complexities in the relationship between creative practitioners, teachers and education authorities. It also confronts the divide that has grown between some creative practitioners and revisionist historians of the First World War. Revisionist historians’ reassessment of the conduct and necessity of the war has led some to harshly judge cultural works, such as performances, for misleading audiences. Yet little research has been conducted into twenty-first century productions about the war and their reception by school audiences. An investigation of these performances problematizes scholarly notions about how and who has the authority to communicate the First World War to the next generation. Whilst the providers, gatekeepers, and critics of learning through performance are of central consideration, this thesis also values the pupil’s voice. Ten Key Stage 3 cohorts are used as case studies, providing a snapshot of the creative activities and field trips employed by schools in 2014 and 2015. Interviews and questionnaires provide pupils’ feedback on what they thought and how they felt about studying history through performance. Observations of History lessons and performances also remove the debate from the hypothetical to the realities of history teaching. They reveal that pupils’ cultural backgrounds, schooling, and exposure to cultural works shaped their responses to performances about the First World War. Pupils also assigned the performances varying degrees of historical authority, some viewed them as merely entertainment, others as educational sources and several as a mixture of the two. Performances brought immediacy and life to the historical topic and provoked an empathetic response from many pupils. Yet some struggled with the symbolism of theatre and others feared the participation that came with TIE and Living History. Consequently, this thesis explores pupil’s critical, personal and emotional engagement with performances, raising questions about what criteria should be used to evaluate the success of such non-formal learning on the war.

Processos intersubjetivos na composição musical de crianças : um estudo sobre a aprendizagem criativa / Intersubjective processes in children's music composition: a study about creative learningBeineke, Viviane January 2009 (has links)
A presente pesquisa está situada no campo das pesquisas sobre a aprendizagem criativa, conceito emergente nas áreas de Educação e de Educação Musical que focaliza o desenvolvimento da criatividade de crianças e jovens em situação de aprendizagem. O objetivo da pesquisa foi investigar como as dimensões da aprendizagem criativa se articulam em atividades de composição musical no contexto do ensino de música na Educação Básica. O referencial teórico foi elaborado com base em dois eixos: as perspectivas das crianças e do professor sobre a aprendizagem criativa. O primeiro eixo, construído segundo o modelo sistêmico de Csikszentmihalyi, revisto através de pesquisas e questionamentos da área de educação musical sobre as práticas e as concepções musicais das crianças, focaliza três dimensões da criatividade: o domínio - ideias de música das crianças; o campo - a comunidade em sala de aula e o indivíduo - contribuições individuais e coletivas. O segundo eixo - perspectiva do professor na aprendizagem criativa - enfoca o papel do professor na construção das relações sociais em aula e as dimensões que caracterizam o ensino criativo: as relações sociais em sala de aula, o engajamento dos interesses dos alunos e a valorização das suas contribuições em atividades de composição musical. O método consistiu em um estudo de caso realizado em aulas de música de uma turma da 2ª série do ensino fundamental. A coleta de dados incluiu: (1) observação e registro em vídeo de dois conjuntos de atividades de composição musical na turma participante, (2) grupos focais com os alunos e (3) entrevistas semiestruturadas e entrevistas de reflexão com vídeo com a professora de música da turma. Os resultados revelam que as dimensões da aprendizagem criativa se articulam nas atividades de composição em grupo, apresentação e crítica musical das produções dos alunos, em um ciclo que aciona processos de estabilização e desestabilização de ideias de música construídas intersubjetivamente em sala de aula. Participando das aulas como compositores, intérpretes e audiência crítica, as crianças constroem sua identidade no grupo e tornam-se agentes da própria aprendizagem, construindo coletivamente o conhecimento que sustenta as suas ideias de música, constantemente revistas, atualizadas e ampliadas pelas suas experiências musicais e reflexivas. Ao professor, cabe proporcionar condições para que se crie esse ambiente de relações sociais positivas, de comprometimento com os processos de aprendizagem do grupo, de colaboração mútua, de engajamento de interesses e de valorização das contribuições das crianças em aula. Ao longo do tempo, essas formas de participação social configuram a constituição de uma comunidade de prática musical engajada e comprometida no processo de negociação e significação dessas práticas, compartilhando maneiras de fazer e pensar música que sustentam a aprendizagem criativa. / The following research it is based on studies about creative learning, an emergent concept in the Education and Music Education areas, which focuses on the development of creativity on children during learning situation. The aim of the research was to investigate how the creative learning dimension articulates itself on musical composition activities in the primary musical education teaching context. The theoretical framework was build to encompass the children and teacher's perspectives on creative learning. The first one was built on Csikszentmihalyi's systems view of creativity, and reviewed through some researches about practices and children musical concepts focusing on three creative dimensions: the domain - children music ideas; the field - the school's community and the individual - collective and individual background. The second point of view about teacher's perspectives on creative learning focused the teacher's role in the social relationships in class and the dimensions that characterize the creative teaching: the relationships in the classroom, the students' commitment interests and the value of their contribution on musical composition activities. The method consisted on a case study carried out in a 2nd grade primary musical class. The data collection involved: (1) observation and video recording of two blocks of activities during musical composition in the participant class, (2) focused groups with students and (3) semi-structured and reflection interviews using video recordings with the participant class teacher. The results show that the dimensions of creative learning articulate themselves in the composition activities in group, musical presentation and critic on students' productions; in a cycle that starts the stabilization and investigates how the creative learning dimension articulates itself on musical composition activities in the primary musical education teaching context and stabilization of music ideas intersubjectively built in the classroom. Participating in the classes as composers, performers, and critical audience, the children build their identity in the group and become agent of their own learning, building the knowledge collectively that sustains their music ideas, which are revised and enlarged constantly by their musical reflective experiences. It is up to teacher to create the conditions to build an environment of social positive relations of groups learning processes, the commitment in mutual collaboration, interest and valuing the children contributions in class. As time goes on, these social participation ways represent the constitution of a committed community of musical practice and in the negotiation and meaning process of this practice, sharing ways to do and think music that sustains creative learning.

Previous issue date: 2013-05-29 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / The objective of this study was to investigate the dynamics that bring out the ideas of music
of children who participated in a music workshop, by analyzing and documenting how these
ideas are shared and transformed in the community of practice and learning established in the
classroom. The study focused on the children s perspective, with the intent of comprehending
how they relate to music and interact social within and outside the Workshop. The theoretical
basis of the study was based on research studies of the field of creative learning in the areas of
education and music education. These researches studies point out the importance of
involving the children in the process of learning viewing them as active agents and coconstructors
of knowledge. Within this perspective, the creativity in education focuses on the
processes of collective construction of knowledge in which the following aspects are pointed
out: imagination, thinking process, inventing process, experimentation, the agency,
protagonism and independence of the students in the construction of meanings (CRAFT et al,
2008; AROSTEGUI, 2012). A qualitative case study was conducted in a Music Workshop for
children ages 6 to 11, offered to the community as an extension project of Santa Catarina
State University. The methodological design tried to document the learning process of the
children through an articulated group of data collection: (1) observation and video recording
of the classes during the year; (2) initial semi-structured interviews with the children; (3)
memory stimulation with edited videos of the observations, from which the children analyzed
and reflected about productions in a collaborative manner and (4) notes voluntarily taken by
the children in individual diaries, which were produced for the research and called ideas of
music notebooks. The data analysis was divided in two categories: the first discussed the
children s notes in the notebooks and how they reflected and shared their ideas of music based
on conversations about these observations, and the second analyzed the activities performed
in the classroom, especially in the activities of musical composition. The results revealed that
the ideas of music are shared and transformed in the classroom through processes of
negotiation perceived among the children while working collaboratively, including the
teachers. The study points out also the importance of listening to the children, valuing their
perspective and offering an environment that offers the possibility of developing the agency
and configuration of a community of learning and musical practice within the classroom.
Under the optic of the referential of creative learning, the importance of knowing the ideas of
music of the children is strongly advocated in order for the musical education to intervene in a
relevant and significant manner, recognizing and valuing the point of views of the children
about their processes of musical learning. / Esta pesquisa teve o objetivo de investigar as dinâmicas que movimentam as ideias de música
de crianças participantes de uma oficina de música, analisando e documentando como essas
ideias são compartilhadas e transformadas na comunidade de prática e aprendizagem
estabelecida em sala de aula. A pesquisa focaliza a perspectiva das crianças, buscando
compreender o modo como elas se relacionam com música e interagem socialmente dentro e
fora da Oficina. O estudo é fundamentado em pesquisas no campo da aprendizagem criativa
nas áreas de educação e educação musical. Essas pesquisas ressaltam a importância de
envolver as crianças no processo de aprendizagem, entendendo-as como agentes ativos e
coconstrutores de conhecimento. Nessa perspectiva, a criatividade na educação focaliza os
processos de construção coletiva de conhecimento, no qual são ressaltados: a imaginação; o
pensamento; a inventividade; a experimentação; a agência e o protagonismo e a
independência dos estudantes na construção de significados (CRAFT et al, 2008;
AROSTEGUI, 2012). Foi realizado um estudo de caso qualitativo em uma Oficina de Música
para crianças de 6 a 11 anos, oferecida à comunidade enquanto projeto de extensão da
Universidade do Estado de Santa Catarina. O desenho metodológico da pesquisa buscou
documentar a aprendizagem das crianças, através de um conjunto articulado de coleta de
dados: (1) observação e registro em vídeo de aulas ao longo do ano; (2) entrevistas
semiestruturadas iniciais com as crianças; (3) entrevistas de estimulação de recordação com
vídeos editado das observações, a partir dos quais as crianças analisaram e refletiram sobre
suas produções colaborativamente; e (4) registros produzidos voluntariamente pelas crianças
em diários individuais, produzidos para a pesquisa e chamados de cadernos de ideias de
música. A análise dos dados foi dividida em duas categorias: a primeira discute os registros
das crianças nos cadernos e como elas refletem e compartilham suas ideias de música a partir
de conversas sobre esses apontamentos; e a segunda analisa as atividades realizadas na
Oficina, visando compreender os movimentos dinâmicos acionados na sala de aula,
especialmente nas atividades de composição musical. Os resultados revelam que ideias de
música são compartilhadas e transformadas em sala de aula, em processos de negociação
percebidos entre as crianças, enquanto trabalhavam colaborativamente, incluindo as
professoras. A pesquisa ressalta também a importância de ouvir as crianças, valorizar sua
perspectiva e proporcionar ambiente que possibilite o desenvolvimento de sua agência e a
configuração de uma comunidade de aprendizado e prática musical na sala de aula. Sob a
óptica do referencial da aprendizagem criativa, argumenta-se pela importância de conhecer as
ideias de música das crianças para que a educação musical possa intervir de forma relevante e
significativa, reconhecendo e valorizando os olhares das crianças sobre seus processos de
aprendizagem musical.

An exploration of creative thinking skills in the grade 9 technology classroomNkosi, Praygod Bonginkosi January 2020 (has links)
Thesis (M.Ed. (Mathematics, Science and Technology Education)) -- University of Limpopo, 2020 / The purpose of this is to investigate how teachers go about for the development of
Creative Thinking Skills (CTS) in a grade 9 technology classroom. The introduction of
technology in the South African curriculum by the Department of Basic Education (DBE)
to develop CTS through the Design Process (DP) as the cornerstone of the learning
area. Technology as a learning area should provide learners with opportunities to solve
real-life problems, in the process developing their CTS (DBE, 2011).
In the 21st century, CTS have been seen as skills that are crucial across the spectrum of
day to day activities. However; it appears to be very complex for technology teachers to
enhance the teaching and learning of CTS in a technology classroom. The literature
suggests that technology teachers tend to suppress the development of learners’ CTS
by limiting the process of teaching and learning to low order thinking cognitive levels
rather than high order cognitive levels.
This study employed a qualitative research enquiry, purposive sampling was used for
the selection of the relevant participants. Qualified technology teachers who teach
grade 9 technology with at least three years’ experience in teaching technology were
considered. Data collection was obtained through interviews, observation and document
analysis.
The research finding showed that teachers lack the understanding of policies,
particularly CAPS hence they continuously compromise its implementation hindering
with the development of CTS of learners as it is envisaged in the CAPS document.
Furthermore, the research findings reveal that the teacher has a little or no
understanding of what is creative thinking (CT) and what it entails, hence they did not
unpack what is it exactly that they do to support the development of learners CTS in a
technology classroom This study recommends that technology teachers be familiar with the CAPS document
and implement it correctly without any compromise. Furthermore; understanding of the
design process is of vital importance to teachers as it is the cornerstone of teaching and
learning, particularly the development of CTS of learners. Technology teachers need
also to have a clear understanding of what CT is and what it entails, that will assist to
arouse their CT and help to develop the CTS of learners in a technology classroom.

Innovative teaching strategies within a nursing education modelPotgieter, Eugené 06 1900 (has links)
Recent nursing literature has repeatedly proclaimed the need for creativity in nursing.
The complexity of contemporary nursing practice as a result of the explosion of
knowledge and technology, changing human values and diverse health care systems,
requires an innovative and creative nurse who can adapt to change and provide holistic,
individualised, context-specific patient care. Higher levels of cognitive thought, creative
thinking and problem-solving skills have been stressed as desirable qualities of student
nurses. It is suggested in the literature that the evolution of innovative strategies and the
ways to implement them into nursing curricula be explored in order to assist and
encourage students to develop these higher cognitive skills.
From an analytical study of the literature which was undertaken with the aim of exploring
the nature of creativity and the processes involved in creative thinking and learning, and
of identifying innovative strategies particularly relevant to the teaching of nursing, it
became apparent that the most significant determinants in teaching for creativity, are the
learning enviromnent, the educator-student relationship, and the provision of a variety
of teaching strategies, which are student-centred with a problem-solving focus. It was
established that stimulation of both the left and right hemispheres of the brain is essential
for the development of creative thinking skills.
Based on the insights and knowledge gained in the study, a nursing education model for
the fostering of creativity was developed. This model encompasses a wide variety of
didactic considerations and is designed to stimulate whole brain learning. It is hoped that
its use will be of value in the production of innovative and courageous nurse practitioners
who will be better equipped to cope with the changes and challenges of their working
environment and be able to provide context-specific nursing care. / Health Studies / D. Litt. et Phil. (Nursing Science)
