Teaching of the trial course in mastering modern technologies at UCU according to the Teach-IT.net method has been completed
Elective classes for students of the Social Pedagogy Department according to “The computer in education” program have finished. The 1st and 2nd modules of the program were covered. The results of a questionnaire of the students showed a notable growth in the knowledge of the students and confirmed the effectiveness of the course.
Impressions of participants of the course:
- Having participated in the course, my knowledge changed. I learned to work in the Windows operating system, and I also did very well with the Paint graphic editor. I also learned how to work with the Word editor.
- After participating in the course, my knowledge changed. I learned to work with the Windows operating system, the Word editor, and the Paint I Picture Manager, and also learned to type more quickly.
- Attending the course “The computer in education,” I repeated much of this and mastered it well. And I also learned new things. I liked the fact that I received all the answers to my questions, and also good explanations. Very helpful were the practical assignments that helped me to understand the materials well and to use them. I have no complaints.
- The positive side of the course: a good teacher, understandable explanations, a convenient time for us, good results of the course. No complaints.
- A particularly interesting and necessary course. Going through this course, I really felt the growth in the level of my knowledge in informatics. Now work with the computer has become not only easy but especially interesting. I liked the pedagogical approach of the teachers. Personally I came home after each class, sat at the computer, and tried to check what I learned at the lesson.
- I really liked this course, which is necessary for education, and the skills of working with various programs that are necessary in modern life. I liked the pedagogical approach to us, and interesting and necessary assignments. We are looking forward to meeting with you and the whole group in official pairs next semester. P.S. At the start of the semester I did not fill out the questionnaire, because I wasn’t even oriented to Word.
- Positive side of the course: fairly necessary themes were selected for the course, important for work with the computer. The teacher presented in an accessible way. Complaint: not enough hours.
- Positive signs of the course: This program is full and productive. During the courses I learned much new and useful. This program is necessary for me and I would like to continue learning how to use the computer precisely according to this program. Complaint: In my opinion, it is necessary to conduct lessons more often, inasmuch as once a week is fairly little.
