Interactive animation and simulation models for deep learning

Details
Category: KEGA
  • Project status: Completed project
  • Faculty: FE

Project ID: KEGA 013TTU-4/2021

Solution period:  2021 - 2023

Project leader: PaedDr. Krisztina Czakóová, PhD.

Annotacion: The project was focused on the use of interactive computer animation-simulation models of real-world objects in education. Simulation models play an important role in teaching because they support active and in-depth learning of the so-called "deep learning", especially in the exact sciences, where the subject of teaching is dynamic phenomena and processes that can be expressed by a mathematical model.
The project was also devoted to the investigation of a suitable combination of didactic, methodological and technological procedures and tools that effectively support the active acquisition of new knowledge of learners and simultaneously develop their ability for independent creative and critical thinking based on constructivist theories.
The research was focused on the methodology of using and creating interactive animation-simulation models, which represent concentrated information about the investigated phenomenon (in the form of an exact mathematical model). Well-planned and correctly implemented simulation experiments enable the discovery of essential facts and properties of the object under investigation and thus construct new knowledge and build one's own knowledge system.

Implementation of formative assessment in primary school teaching with the focus on the digital form

Category: KEGA
  • Project status: Project in progress
  • Faculty: FE

Project ID: KEGA 001UPJŠ-4/2023

Solution period:  2023 - 2025

Project leader: Mgr.  Katarína Szarka, PhD.

Annotacion:

The project aims to expand the formative assessment tool databases. So far, they focused on science and at this stage, social science subjects will be added. The goal is to shift formative assessment (FA) towards digital forms and implement it into teaching by creating a digital library. The main goal is to create a collection of formative assessment tools (FAT) for the selected social science subjects (Slovak, English, and German languages, history) and digitally process all databases. They will become a part of the existing digital library for teaching science subjects, selected social science subjects, and mathematics at primary schools. Another goal is to verify its influence on developing conceptual understanding and self-reflection in students as well as teachers’, students’, and parents’ opinions on and attitudes to FA. In terms of the project, the contents as well as functionalities of the digital library will be expanded. The implementation of the digital library into practice will take place in cooperation with digital coordinators and selected teachers at primary schools. Digital coordinators as well as teachers will be trained to work with the digital library via courses and guidelines will be created. The selected teachers will be trained to cooperate in the creation of the FAT database. The digital library can potentially help teachers and students develop their digital skills. The efficiency of teaching using the digital library will be verified via pedagogical research. The research results can be used for the primary school curriculum modification proposals as well as in student assessment in the individual educational cycles and areas.

The project builds on the results of the VEGA projects No. 1/0265/17 Formative assessment in the teaching of natural sciences, mathematics and informatics and KEGA No. 004UPJŠ-4/2020 Creation, implementation, and verification of the effectiveness of digital library with the formative assessment tools for the natural sciences, mathematics and informatics at the elementary school.

Bilingual e-learning courses on ethics and ethical topics at Protestant theological faculties of colleges and universities

Details
Category: KEGA
  • Project status: Completed project
  • Faculty: RTF

Project ID: KEGA 005UJS-4/2022

Solution period: 2022 -  2023

Project leader: Mgr. Katarína Pólya, PhD.

Annotation: The project elaborates the utilizing problem of using the most modern methods of teaching the subject named Ethics not only for theological but also for students of social sciences. It is about how to wortk out ethical topics and plan an optimal model for the multimedial education. The result is the processing of the teaching materials for the subject named Ethics and various ethical topics in electronic form in Slovak and Hungarian.
