Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2011 in the subject Pedagogy - The Teacher, Educational Leadership, grade: none, course: Advanced Educational Practice, language: English, abstract: ...The English government, despite no longer making languages compulsory, still rates language learning as an important part of education by including it in the seven domains of subjects required for the EBacc certificate (Parliament records, NA). Despite common belief only 6% of the world's population speak English as a first language and 75% of the world's population do not speak any English at all. This is also reflected on the languages used on the internet where only 51% are in English. "Chinese has almost caught up with English and Russian and Spanish are increasingly prominent" (Languages work, NA)... Despite all these arguments the majority of pupils still rate other subjects, including maths and science as more important for their future even though they do not find them necessarily easy (Stables, 1999). The promotion of language learning forms part of my position as an MFL teacher and I have previously tried to engage pupils in activities like a lunchtime handball club where they had to use German expressions to communicate with each other. I have spent time pointing out to my students why I personally think it is important to learn languages and listing reasons given by Languages Work and other organisations. I often find that their parents have great influence on their opinion and attitude to learning. Governmental guidelines, EU policies and my own biography clearly outline the importance of language skills. I cannot change the pupils' view immediately and maybe never will and have therefore decided to combine the seemingly popular subject ICT with MFL to research if this can increase pupils' motivation towards MFL. On the other hand pupils regard ICT as a necessity and so do their parents which increase their willingness to attend an ICT lesson as they can see its needs. C
Download or read book Nonlinear Pedagogy in Skill Acquisition written by Jia Yi Chow and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-14 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nonlinear pedagogy is a powerful paradigm for understanding human movement and for designing effective teaching, coaching and training programs in sport, exercise and physical education. It addresses the inherent complexity in the learning of movement skills, viewing the learner, the learning environment and the teacher or coach as a complex interacting system, with the constraints of individual practice tasks providing the platform for functional movement behaviours to emerge. This is the first book to explain this profoundly important new approach to skill acquisition, introducing key theoretical ideas and best practice for students, teachers and coaches. The first section of the book offers a general theoretical framework to explain processes of skill acquisition and the learning of movement skills. The book then defines nonlinear pedagogy, and outlines its key principles of practice. It offers a thorough and critical appraisal of the optimal use of instructional constraints and practice design, and discusses methods for creating challenging and supportive individualised learning environments at developmental, sub-elite and elite levels of performance. Every chapter contains cases and examples from sport and exercise contexts, providing guidance on practice activities and lessons. Nonlinear Pedagogy in Skill Acquisition is an essential companion for any degree level course in skill acquisition, motor learning, sport science, sport pedagogy, sports coaching practice, or pedagogy or curriculum design in physical education.

Its potential for improving the quality and standard of students' education is significant (DfEE, 1998). Many research claims that the use of ICT in education has a positive impact on students' motivation to learn, such as leading them to positive attitude; increasing their enjoyment, self esteem, independence and confidence in the learning process. This study aims to investigate the relationship between ICT and student motivation, as well to determine factors which have influences on teachers to use ICT and to determine factors motivate students to learn through the use of ICT in teaching and learning. A case study research method employing both qualitative and quantitative research approach such as literature search, questionnaire, class observation, and interview with both students and teachers were used during the process. The findings show that the use of ICT in teaching and learning has a significant positive impact on student motivation, such as increasing students' attitude to learn, improving classroom behavior, and providing better performance of learning outcome. The factors which motivated students to learn with the use of ICT, such as enhancement of enjoyment and interest of topic presented, decreased feedback time, allowed the opportunity for student to choose and control their learning pace; as well as increased of self esteem, independence and confidence in the learning process. There are many factors that encourage the teachers to use ICT in teaching activities; such as meeting the minimum requirement of the (25%) IT teaching from the iiEMB instruction, the level of resources available, the level of training and supporting provided, the effectiveness and improvement in students' learning and the using of ICT in teaching which considered being interesting and enjoyable. iii DOI: 10.5353/th_b3159870 Subjects: Education, Secondary - Computer-assisted instruction Motivation in education - China - Hong Kong High school teachers - China - Hong Kong - Attitudes High school seniors - China - Hong Kong - Attitudes
