  • 1 Designing Learning Resources in Language
    DESIGNING LEARNING RESOURCES IN LANGUAGE TEACHING AND LEARNING I. INTRODUCTION Today the entire world is moving speedily towards digitization and we have to learn new things using new technologies. Quality of teaching and students' learning is determined by the teachers who teach them. Well-trained teachers with required knowledge, skills and commitment can develop scientific and critical thinking, promote tolerance, and develop cultural and social values in them. Innovative technologies will make it possible to achieve these by providing new ways to teachers. However, these new technologies are placing more demands on teachers to learn how to use them in their teaching and learning processes. This great transformation is posing challenges to teachers and teacher educators in using technologies in creative and productive ways. Hence, we as teachers have to meet these new challenges by continuously acquiring new knowledge and skills to discharge our duties effectively. ICT can offer tremendous opportunities for capturing, storing, disseminating and communicating a wide variety of information. Rapid expansion of knowledge and availability of variety of ICT has made knowledge, inclusion and integration of ICT in teaching and learning inevitable for us now. Moreover, ICT can promote international collaboration and networking in education and provide more flexible and effective ways for professional development . It can also help in pre-service and in-service teacher training programs. In terms of designing teaching and learning materials, application software must be of real benefit. Application software is a computer program designed to help the user perform a specific activity. The word "application" is used because each program has a specific application for the user.

    EduAkcja. Magazyn edukacji elektronicznej nr 2 (12)/2016, str. 51—69 Ocena obszarów stosowalności aplikacji Open Source oraz Public Domain podczas tworzenia kursów e-learningowych Barbara Dębska Politechnika Rzeszowska [email protected] Lucjan Dobrowolski Politechnika Rzeszowska [email protected] Karol Hęclik Politechnika Rzeszowska [email protected] Streszczenie: W artykule przedstawiono wyniki oceny obszarów stosowalności wybranych aplikacji Open Source oraz Public Domain, wykorzystywanych podczas wytwarzania kursów e-learningowych. Omówiono ich funkcje i ergonomię pracy oraz niedostatki. Uwzględniono przeszkody, na jakie napotykają osoby przygotowujące doku- menty, przeznaczone do umieszczenia w materiałach e-learningowych. Opisane aplikacje pogrupowano tematycz- nie wg rodzajów przetwarzanych treści, a następnie oceniono pod kątem możliwości wykorzystywania nowych technologii internetowych w e-kursach. Zwrócono uwagę na trudności, jakie mogą sprawiać niektóre nowe tech- nologie teleinformatyczne podczas przygotowywania treści multimedialnych. W szczególności dotyczy to animacji realizowanych przy pomocy HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript i SVG. Słowa kluczowe: e-learning, open source, narzędzia pomocnicze, multimedia 1. Wprowadzenie 1.1. Treści kursów e-learningowych Obecnie coraz częściej strony kursów e-learningowych zawierają nie tylko tekst i grafikę statycz- ną, ale także treści multimedialne (Rys. 1).

  • Flipped Classroom”
    “How to make a Flipped Classroom” The manual with references to make a Flipped Classroom video. Flipped Classroom. What is it? The Flipped Classroom inverts traditional teaching methods, delivering instruction online outsider of the class and moving (homework) into the classroom. How to Flip? 1. It all starts with a teacher doing what they do best – explaining a concept. Except this time they're doing it on video, either by simply explaining a concept on camera, or using screen capture tools or presentation software with a voiceover. Video content retains the connection, the humor, and the pace of great teaching – and there’s plenty of scope for teachers to be creative! How to Flip? 2. Students then watch the content at home, before class. This gives them freedom over how, when and where they learn – and it lets them engage with the video content in the way that suits them best. They can watch alone, with friends, or with parents – and on any device they choose, from their iPhone to their home computer. They can pause, rewind and re-watch and read around the topic. Students then come to class prepared with knowledge, questions, observations and ideas that will underpin the learning in the next stage. How to Flip? 3. Because the students have watched the video content at home, class time can now be spent applying that knowledge in engaging, practical, collaborative ways. The teacher is freed up to craft personalized learning experiences for students according to their needs, and to circulate the class helping students individually or in small groups.
