Lietuvos mokytojų, dirbančių su „ActivInspire“ interaktyviąja sistema, patirtys naudojant „ActivInspire“ vertinimo sistemą
Abstract
Technology is recognized as an instructional tool in the classroom in more and more
schools today. One of the technological innovations in Lithuania, which was introduced
in 2013 and oriented towards science and mathematics teaching process in the 5th classes,
was ActivInspire system. The problem analysed in the article – experience of Lithuania’s
school teachers in evaluating students’ achievement in a classroom using ActivInspire
system of evaluation. The research object: one school year’s experience of teachers who
use ActivInspire interactive whiteboard and student response system (voting clickers) in
mathematics and science lessons in the 5th classes. The research purpose: to summarize
one school year’s teaching experience of teachers in evaluating students using interactive
evaluation tools (ActivInspire system).
The research was carried out in the 2013–2014 school year. Teachers using ActivInspire
interactive whiteboard and student response system for teaching mathematics and science
in the 5th classes participated in the survey. The research character: qualitative. During
a school year, the teachers were writing reflections about their experience in using the
interactive tools in lessons: interactive whiteboard, electronic textbooks and student
response system. Electronic textbooks for mathematics and science lessons in the 5th class
were prepared by publishing house Šviesa. The reflections were written from September to
May (inclusive) (January and February excluded), once a week, in free format describing
experience in working with the interactive teaching tools. The teachers who participated in the survey, in principle, give positive assessment to
their one school year’s experience in using interactive evaluation system. Mostly teachers
distinguish the usefulness of student response system (voting clickers). In addition to
usefulness teachers identified as important such aspects: interest, time management and
the impact for learning results.
While talking about the negative experience in using interactive evaluation system
teachers referred to the fact that the evaluation system is not appropriate for each lesson,
it takes time and using the system is not always possible to achieve the desired learning
outcomes.
