41	An examination of academic dishonesty in secondary online english education Middleton, Marissa 01 May 2012 (has links) Online schooling is the newest form of education and it is quickly gaining popularity. However, this educational format also comes with one of the challenges that has always been present in schools, which is academic dishonesty. In the English Language Arts content area, academic dishonesty is most often manifested as plagiarism, however, cheating on online quizzes or exams still exists. Although this issue has always been present in English classes, it is becoming more of a concern because of the vast number of technological resources available to students including websites with pre-written papers and the various methods students can now use to instantly communicate with each other. This study combines and synthesizes a literature review and a survey of secondary online English educators at Florida Virtual School to give their perspective on aspects of cheating and plagiarism in online English education including a comparison between online and face to face academic dishonesty, reasons students cheat or plagiarize in online education and attitudes toward academic dishonesty, how students cheat and plagiarize in online classes, how teachers detect academic dishonesty in their online classes, consequences and policies of academic dishonesty in online education, and preventing academic dishonesty in online education. The overall new finding, from comparing both the literature review and the FLVS survey results, was that academic dishonesty in online education is not vastly different from academic dishonesty in face to face classrooms; therefore, academic dishonesty in the online environment is not as much of a mystery as commonly perceived. The survey did, however, expand the knowledge about online academic dishonesty at the secondary level, and specifically in the English Language Arts content area. Education

The classification of quadrilaterals based on selected characteristics Vladyková, Kateřina January 2014 (has links) TITLE: Didactical situations in mathematics at lower secondary level. The classification of quadrilaterals based on selected characteristics. AUTHOR: Bc. Kateřina Vladyková DEPARTMENT: Department of Mathematics and Mathematical Education SUPERVISOR: Prof. RNDr. Jarmila Novotná, CSc. ABSTRACT: This thesis deals with the possible use of the Theory of didactical situations in mathematics at the lower secondary level of Czech school. It is specifically focused on the classification of quadrilaterals based on selected characteristics. The thesis consists of two parts, theoretical and practical. The theoretical part deals mainly with the introduction of Theory of didactical situations, defining and explaining their basic concepts. The thesis also briefly introduces currently existing curricula in the Czech Republic, in which quadrilaterals were the author's main focus. Furthermore, the topic is analyzed from educational materials (textbooks) used in Czech primary schools. In the experimental part of the thesis the author presents a detailed script of educational unit. It is a practical demonstration of a particular theory of didactic situations in teaching mathematics at the Czech elementary school, which is developed and implemented according to the principles of the theory of didactic situations. The thesis...
43	Reflektování potřeb žáků se specifickými poruchami učení ve výuce anglického jazyka jako jazyka cizího / Reflecting the Needs of the Students with Specific Learning Disabilities in TEFL Stehlíková, Hana January 2015 (has links) The specific learning disabilities with the primary focus on dyslexia as one of the special educational need are characterised in the thesis. The theoretical part provides thorough clarification of the individual disabilities as well as the enumeration and explanation of the re- educational approaches towards the specific learning difficulties aimed at the process of teaching English as a foreign language. The qualitative research conducted on the second stage of the basic school constitutes the empirical part of the thesis. The major aim of tracing the needs of the learners with dyslexia was achieved by combining the results of the analysis of the textbooks and the self-created worksheets, observations from the lessons and the interviews with the participants. The main research question, discussing the degree of appropriateness and suitability of the created material in opposition to the regularly used textbooks, was answered in favour of the designed worksheets. Moreover, the thesis provides well-structured and comprehensive summary of the recommendations to enhance the learning process of the learners with dyslexia. Key words Dyslexia, foreign language teaching, lower secondary level, re-education, special educational needs, specific learning disabilities

This work is divided into three chapters. Whilst the first chapter is dedicated to the theory, the subject of two other chapters are two different researches conducted under the divisibility theme. Theoretical resources common to both parts of the research can be found in the first chapter. Among the topics mentioned in this chapter are for example the differences between formal and informal knowledge, constructivist and transmissive way of teaching or the process of solving word problems. The essence of my first research are the textbooks for elementary school concerned with the divisibility theme. Except the part devoted to a textbooks search (all the textbooks approved by the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports which deal with divisibility), this chapter also contains the propaedeutics of divisibility and interviews with teachers, in which I have tried to cover the most important moments in the schooling of divisibility. Second part of my research is focused on checking of the pupils' knowledge of divisibility with a special emphasis on formal and informal knowledge. I have used the test to this purpose, which was...
45	Students' experiences of e-learning at school Barty, Karin, kimg@deakin.edu.au,jillj@deakin.edu.au,mikewood@deakin.edu.au January 2001 (has links) The dissertation describes the experiences of senior secondary students taking an online course for the first time to further their language education. The experiences are presented from the perspective of students, of supervising teachers and the 'virtual' teacher. Issues of importance with younger learners are identified and discussed and guidelines for the conduct of online courses at school level developed. It is proposed that online courses may have a worthwhile place in school education if specific learning needs can be met using this medium. online courses students secondary level of schooling North America 1995 1997 netcourses e-learning LOTE online Key Learning Area (KLA) Languages Other Than English (LOTE) Telematics Project Department of Education Employment and training (DEET) Victorian Education Department regional centre Victoria English literature cyberschool electronic classroom Deakin University
