My thesis is focused on using ICT (Information and Communication Technology) for teaching about percentage and axial symmetry. Specifically I am using an interactive whiteboard to support my teaching. The thesis is divided into two parts, a theoretical and a practical part. The first part is looking into various teaching methods, use of ICT and the interactive whiteboard in teaching in general. The second part of my thesis contains a workbook I have prepared to support my teaching on the interactive whiteboard and the application of the workbook during lessons for the students on secondary school. I have concluded my thesis with evaluation of my teaching methods and reflective practice.

The aim of this diploma thesis is to prepare and try to present and practise vocabulary in practice using a interactive whiteboard. Vocabulary topics are based on RVP (FEP) and designed for 6th grade of elementary school. A textbook Way to Win 6 is used as a source and basic material for the topics. This textbook comes precisely from RVP (FEP). I have prepared presentations and practices on the basis of professional literature which are methodically correct. These presentations and practices are connected with a meaning and a spoken and written form of each word. Pupils will be able to use this vocabulary actively after practising.

A presente pesquisa analisou a atividade docente com o uso da Lousa Digital em aula de Matemática, especificamente as interações docentes em aula de Razões e Proporções. Para tanto, realizou-se um estudo de caso com um professor considerado usuário experiente com a Lousa Digital, com a filmagem de uma de suas aulas, com 37 minutos e 38 segundos de duração, com o uso da Lousa Digital. A atividade docente foi analisada a partir da literatura em Interação e da revisão de literatura em Razão e Proporção. Pautada na análise de conteúdo, a atividade docente foi investigada a partir da identificação das interações docentes com a Lousa e com a turma, ou alunos da turma. Cada interação foi identificada a partir de seus objetivos, compondo um total de 130 interações, estas últimas classificadas em mediação didática, mediação pedagógica, gestão de recursos e outras. Os resultados mostram que a Lousa Digital foi usada pelo professor na maioria delas, em aproximadamente 71,8%, das interações com objetivo de mediação didática.. Nas interações de mediação didática, observou-se o uso da Lousa Digital em 95,3% para apresentação de conceitos e procedimentos, 88,9% das interações para estabelecer objetivos de aula e 90,9% das interações relativas à proposição de exercícios. No ensino de Razões e Proporções, em que foram utilizados recursos da Lousa Digital, ficou evidente que o uso da Lousa permitiu ao professor propor uma boa variedade de exercícios, elaborados a partir de recursos digitais e expressos em forma de textos, tabelas, exemplos, todos na tentativa de favorecer a apresentação dos conteúdos de razão e proporção. Ressalta-se que não foram propostas atividades em que os alunos interagissem diretamente com a Lousa Digital. Observou-se que algumas funções da Lousa Digital, como o uso do teclado na Lousa Digital ou a função lápis, precisam ser mais bem estruturadas e articuladas pelos desenvolvedores da ferramenta, facilitando, assim, a relação dessa com outros softwares e com outras apresentações. / The movement of the technological innovations brought to the classroom the interactive whiteboard, which associates the potentialities of the computer with the Whiteboard. The several potentialities of the computer for the Mathematics teaching coupled to one of the most traditional tools in the classroom, thus facilitating the work of the technological tools with the entire group of the classroom. In this context, the present study analyzed the teaching activity with the use of interactive whiteboard in mathematics class, particularly the interactions of teachers in the class of ratios and proportions. For both, we conducted a case study with a teacher regarded as an expert with the interactive whiteboard, with the filming of one of his classes, with 37 minutes and 38 seconds, with the use of interactive whiteboard. The teaching activity was analyzed starting from the literature on interaction and review of the literature in ratio and proportion. Guided in analysis of content, the teaching activity was analyzed through the identification of interactions with the interactive whiteboard and teacher with the class, or pupils in the class. Every interaction was identified from their goals, making a total of 130 interactions, classified as didactic Mediation, pedagogical mediation, resource management and others. The results show that, among the interactions with didactic mediation purpose, the Digital whiteboard was used by the teacher on most of these interactions, approximately 71.8%. From among the mediating didactic interactions, it was observed the use of Digital whiteboard in 95.3% for the presentation of concepts and procedures, 88.9% of the class to set goals and 90.9% of the interactions concerning to the exercises of proposition. In the teaching of ratios and proportions using interactive whiteboard resources, became apparent that the use of the interactive whiteboard allowed the teacher to propose a nice variety of exercises and digital resources, in form of texts, tables, examples, trying to encourage the presentation of related content. The use of interactive whiteboard promotes the teaching of mathematics in maximize methodologies of teaching in the presentation of the content and use of digital resources. There were not proposed activities in which students interact directly with the interactive whiteboard. Some digital tools, such as using the keyboard on the interactive whiteboard Pencil or function, need to be better structured and linked by developers to facilitate the writing of the interactive whiteboard.

Um recurso tecnológico que possibilita o uso de vídeo digital educativo e também a construção de atividades pedagógicas interativas é a lousa digital interativa. Este recurso está começando a se fazer presente em escolas de ensino fundamental e médio, principalmente, não destinando o uso deste recurso à educação infantil. Partindo do princípio que a educação infantil constitui-se como primeira etapa da educação básica, e que o recurso da lousa digital interativa possui diversas ferramentas e funções interessantes de serem utilizadas nesta etapa da educação, postula-se como objetivo geral desta pesquisa o desenvolvimento de práticas pedagógicas para a educação infantil fazendo uso da lousa digital interativa, destacando as dificuldades encontradas, junto a profissionais de educação infantil de Campinas e região. / Mestrado / Ciencias Sociais na Educação / Mestre em Educação

I detta arbete belyser jag den interaktiva tavlans användningsområde i två svenska skolor, samt beskriver hur den används i andra länder som exempelvis Storbritannien. Syftet var även att undersöka på vilka punkter den skiljde sig från en vanlig whiteboard och även vilka problem som kunde uppstå vid användningen av den interaktiva tavlan i undervisningen. Undersökningen i de svenska skolorna genomfördes i form av en intervju med sex lärare som alla använde den interaktiva tavlan i sin undervisning. Kontakten med lärarna inleddes via brevväxling per e-post och avslutades med en telefonintervju. Resultatet visar att den interaktiva tavlan främst användes till att visa bilder och animationer som ett komplement till skolans traditionella whiteboard eftersom den interaktiva tavlan kändes för onaturlig att skriva på. Alla lärare i undersökningen betonade dock att den interaktiva tavlan fått ett positivt mottagande av eleverna, där interaktiviteten och användningen av bilder och ljud som tillfördes till undervisningen sågs som den största styrkan tillsammans med möjligheten att kunna stå framför klassen och styra datorn. Hälften av lärarna påpekade att de svårigheter som uppstått med den interaktiva tavlan lätt kan härledas till deras bristande teknikkunskaper. De anser därför att en utbildningskurs för att utvidga kunskaperna om tavlans funktioner är nödvändig, samt tillgången till teknisk support ifall utrustningen skulle drabbas av problem. Detta anser jag vara den största begränsningen med den interaktiva tavlan, de problem som eventuellt kan uppstå måste kunna avhjälpas för att tavlan skall kunna användas obehindrat i undervisningen.

The blackboard and whiteboard are common in schools globally. Many of them have interesting magnetic properties, which is not largely used. In this thesis, a study is conducted in which the possibility of navigating along a whiteboard, using its magnetic property, is examined. A robot was manufactured and tested to see the possibilities of operating a robot with multiple functions on the board. By utilizing an accelerometer and a distance sensor, the robot was capable of navigating the board without the risk of falling of. The completed robot has an integrated controller which allows adjustments to any desired angle and detection of the edge of the board. / Svarta tavlan och whiteboard är vanligt förekommande i skolor over hela världen. Många av dem har den intressanta egenskapen att vara magnetisk, vilket inte utnyttjas i någon större grad. I den här avhandlingen gjordes en studie i att navigera med en robot på en tavla genom att utnyttja dess magnetiska egenskap. En robot tillverkades och testades för att se möjligheterna av att ha en Robot som skulle kunna utföra många olika uppgifter på tavlan. Genom utnyttjandet av en accelerometer och en distanssensor kunde roboten navigera på tavlan utan att riskera att trilla av. Den färdiga roboten har ett implementerat styrsystem för att kunna justera sig in till olika vinklar och även detektera kanten av tavlan.

Worldwide, people who are unable to study full-time at residential higher education institutions choose distance education as their mode of study. Such students who are mostly employed adults with multiple responsibilities face many challenges in the process. Students majoring in Mathematics often struggle to master the mathematics content of the major modules and therefore have to attempt the examination several times. The UODL at the Potchefstroom campus of the NWU incorporated IWBs as learning technology in order to improve the communication and support to their students. This study aims to determine how scaffolding of mathematics concepts can be facilitated via IWBs in order to enhance the learning experience of teacher-students towards their understanding of the fundamental principles of mathematics. The study is based on the Stoner model for implementing ICT learning technologies and the focus of the study relates specifically to the design integration phase of the Stoner cycle. The population for the study consisted of all OLG teacher-students who were registered for NWPK 512—a mathematics major module within the ACE programme. A group of ten participants attending at the White River centre and a control group of ten participants from another centre were used during the study. The study followed a mixed-method research design and was performed according to a Kirkpatrick evaluation for training programmes which involves evaluation on five different levels, namely reaction, perception whether learning occurred, change in behaviour, results and return on investment. The qualitative data were analysed through ATLAS.ti ™ augmented with descriptive statistical techniques. Descriptive statistical techniques and effect sizes were calculated to analyse the quantitative data. Reliability and validity of the instrument were calculated. Findings of the study indicated that scaffolding of mathematical concepts via IWBs enhanced students’ understanding of the fundamental concepts of mathematics. The group of participants performed significantly better after they have attended the scaffolding IWB sessions. The introduction to and incorporation of scaffolds for learning mathematics over distance can create an environment of effective mathematics education for all teacher-students as well as for the students in their respective classrooms. / MEd (Curriculum Development), North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2015

科技真的能帶來好的學習成效嗎？以科技做為學習的方式很多，我們又如何得知科技學習是否帶來有效的學習效果呢？過去學理討論以科技輔助教學(Technology - Mediated Learning；TML)主要是將重點放在分析科技的特點、教學方法及學習者的特質；學理上很少在討論學習者脈絡，意即探討學習者心理的學習歷程。因此，本研究探索，學習者在教學方法、學習心理歷程及科技的共同影響之下，會產生如何的學習的效果。本研究個案公司，利用自行研發的電子白板進行教學，他們將教學重點放在如何利用這樣的新科技教學方法，做為另一種提升學習的方法。這些教學模式，都是經由了解學習者潛在的心理學習因素；而這些因素，也可以透過科技，反應在教學的設計上，並且隱含教育的基準。在研究發現則指出利用科技輔助教學的成效不能指單看科技的功能及教學的方法，還需要考慮學生的學習情境及心理學習的過程。因此，利用科技輔助教學，若能在考慮學習脈絡的觀點之下，結合教學設計，適當的科技功能運用，則能產生給予學習者更強烈的影響。 / Does TML (Technology-Mediated Learning) benefit learning outcome? TML are manipulated extensively as learning instruments, but how do we know the TML whether bring good learning results? Previous theory is more focus on analyzing technology feature, instructor’s method and learner’s characteristics; less on discussing learning context, which is mean how learner’s psychological learning process, to be mutually affected by technology cause the learning outcome. Through my case study company, their own design TML instrument called electronic whiteboard has been implemented in the class. They are emphasizing to use electronic whiteboard by increasing learning outcome instead of technology per se. Therefore, their instruction models are base on knowing the learner’s psychological learning process. The instructors designed their own instruction models by learner’s psychology learning process with embedding pedagogy basis. The research findings are elaborating the TML efficiency should be engaged with technology feature, learning context and learner’s psychological learning process. Therefore, TML must consider the entire learning context, combine with instruction method, and provide the suitable function can bring the powerful learning outcome.
