Due to rapid changes in society (economic and social) the number of socially and pedagogically neglected children is increasing in Lithuania, schools are not appropriately prepared to accept children that got into asocial environment and create favourable conditions for their adaptation and education, because little resources are allocated for them, there is a shortage of qualified specialists; schools are not provided with proper technical education means, which guarantee successful functioning of integrated education system; there is not enough information, prepared references and prevention means in order to eliminate the reasons of ineffectual learning. Thus the assessment of state of Lithuanian general education schools is purposeful in order to correct and optimize the process of education, highlighting and determining the reasons of ineffectual learning. Purpose of the work: to explain the reasons of ineffectual learning at general education schools and the influence of family for ineffectual learning. Tasks of the work: • To survey various scientific pedagogical, psychological literature with reference to the problem being examined. • To reveal the reasons of ineffectual learning of pupils (4-10 grades). • To analyze the influence of family for ineffectual learning of pupils. • To prepare references for parents, whose children confront with troubles in learning and for pedagogues, who work with pupils experiencing failures in learning.

Lietuva vis labiau įsitraukia į daugiamatę pasaulio raidą: pasinaudodama integracijos pranašumais ji siekia ilgalaikio konkurencingumo pasaulio ir Europos erdvėje. Šalyje nėra gausių gamtinių išteklių, ji nepasižymi išskirtine geografine padėtimi, todėl žmogiškieji ištekliai tampa pagrindine valstybės vertybe. Sparčiai didėjantis žmogiškųjų išteklių poreikis – vienas dabartinio laikmečio iššūkių, kurį sukelia besiplečiančios rinkos ekonominiai dėsniai, gamybos dinamiškumas, jos struktūriniai pokyčiai, naujos technologijos, stiprėjanti konkurencija ir aukštos kvalifikacijos specialistų stoka. Šiandieninis darbo pasaulis kelia iš esmės naujus reikalavimus žmogui jo karjeros kelyje. Šiuolaikiniam individui būtina karjeros kompetencija, kurią laiduoja aukšti specialieji profesiniai bei bendrieji: bendradarbiavimo bei veikimo socialinėje aplinkoje, darbo pasaulio pažinimo, sprendimų priėmimo, veiklos planavimo ir kiti gebėjimai. Dabartinėje, sparčiai besikeičiančioje, aplinkoje kiekvienam visuomenės nariui vis svarbesnė tampa galimybė mokytis ir tęsti savo žinių ir įgūdžių lavinimą visą gyvenimą. Nuošalėje atsiduria asmenys pradžioje, dažniausiai nenorintys, o vėliau ir nesugebantys prisitaikyti prie nuolat kintančių ir sudėtingėjančių gyvenimo sąlygų. Visuomenė vis labiau skirstosi į tuos, kurie turi rinkos poreikius atitinkančius įgūdžius ir kvalifikaciją, ir tuos, kurie jos neturi. Tikėtina, kad jauni žmonės, įgiję tik pagrindinį išsilavinimą, tačiau neįgiję darbinės...

The efficiency of educational system is expressed through the number of inceptives in proportion to the number of students who have achieved a certain education degree. It is essential for a student to undergo success in each part of an educational chain and develop correspondent competence. There is an objective in our country to warrant compulsory primary education and apprenticeship up to 16 years of age. Recently, persons from 18 to 24 years without secondary education and who do not proceed to study are being taken into particular consideration. The weak link in Lithuanian educational system is vocational training schools. Each year approximately 7 thousand apprentices of these schools terminate their learning agreements before acquiring vocation. Therefore the aim of this investigation is to discover the reasons which prevent students from acquiring their chosen profession. The first part covers theoretical aspects of ineffectual learning, taking scientists’ researches into consideration, the extent of an unsuccessful learning and prime reasons for an early retreat from the educational system. The second section renders the reasons and assumptions for leaving vocational schools on the grounds of a particular vocational school activity analysis and unsuccessful students’ questionnaire information. The results identify difficulties of psychological, educational... [to full text]
