Description of the Experience

Teaching subjects related to IT, it is important that the teacher himself is aware and knowledgeable about new discoveries. Often self-taught students already have learned a lot. While others only know the basics. In its work, I include in my group work, where students with different expertise can share their experiences and learn from each other.

I only have to agree. Technology is a part of our students’ everyday lives (at home and at school) and also of ours. Their development and expansion are very fast. Therefore, it is necessary for the teachers to be able to effectively use them in the educational process. Technologies themselves are not able to change the quality of education but their appropriate use is. In recent years the Slovak schools had been equipped with new technologies, such as interactive whiteboards (almost every school has at least one), projectors, tablets. There are available many tutorial programs, applications and also digital educational curriculum. Students communicate with each other via email, chat or social networks. It's natural for them. It is very important for teachers to be able to adapt to these new trends, to try to educate themselves and learn how to properly and effectively use ICT in lessons.

Completely agree with the statement. New technology is a changing environment, it moves very quickly and needs a continuous recycling of knowledge by teachers. Social networks, hosting services in the cloud, email, instant messaging services are changing the way we relate and how to learn. Adapt to new challenges for IT is fundamental to us.

Dissemination Seminar in Florence

31 October 2015 The seminar has been held in ITIS “A. Meucci” one of the schools involved within Goerudio project activities. Its main aim was to promote the results of the project toward a broad sample of stakeholders even overcrossing the number of people directly involved in the production of project outcomes. This purpose has been totally achieved especially thanks to the participation of students and teachers coming from different schools or from other classes instead of those ones directly involved within the project activities.
