This exploratory study analyzed students’ perception of a paperless English classroom to identify participants who successfully used the paperless environment. The participants (n = 179) were tasked to answer a questionnaire. Results only showed a significant difference in the amount of time the participants used their PCs to work on their assignments; however, PCs’ prior use was not a factor. The transition from a traditional paper-based classroom to a paperless one cannot be taken for granted. Sufficient instruction on how the digital materials can be accessed is necessary for some learners to embrace a paperless classroom.

In this paper we look into the role of mentors in student training given it is of paramount importance and at times both unknown and undefined. We studied this issue through research conducted in three Spanish universities using Creswell’s biphasic model along with sequential data triangulation. We obtained information by interviewing mentors and applying an electronic questionnaire. The results show that basically mentors are available for students in student training, facilitate their integration in the center. The study indicates that conceptualizing and operationalizing mentoring functions is difficult, however, they set up a reference for the development of student training.

Information Technology (IT) is a major part of modern society and is already well embedded in everyday life. IT is believed to be a perfect tool to enhance learning, also at tertiary level. However, it is uncertain whether students use the IT for educational purposes and if that usage is at higher than basic level. The aim of the study was to investigate the use of IT by engineering students and especially their use of technology in the learning process. The study proves that the students are surrounded by common type of IT, such as smartphones and computers, and use them almost constantly. However, its use is not directed towards learning process and especially towards learning engineering applications. The knowledge and skills of programming and specialized engineering software declared by students is astonishingly low for students of engineering faculty. It appears that students’ IT ownership, access, and some, although limited, competencies have not translated into use for educational purposes.

Information Technology (IT) entered the world of education with authority and with general assumption that it would enhance students’ learning. It is used in the educational environment for many uses, with class delivery as one of the most important purposes. The aim of the study was to investigate the preferences in the delivery methods by students and compare with those favoured by the instructors. Additionally, the study assessed the use of IT in preparation (by instructors) and access (by students) of material related to learning. A separate issue addressed was classroom cheating by students and IT application for that purpose. The study indicated a clear preference by both students and instructors for blended learning of traditional face to face lecturing with additional on-line material. The study also confirmed the use of IT as a tool for class cheating. Although reluctantly, up to 73% of students confessed to cheating using one or other method.

The recent implementation in the university of professionalizing Masters has meant a considerable increase in the interest of students towards the study of the different subjects in order to improve their expertise. While in some cases it is a prerequisite for access to public opposition, in many others, the Masters allows more extensive knowledge gained throughout university degree. This type of educational practices that the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) has introduced, i.e., the derivatives of education policies, is justified by the process of European convergence. From Brussels come new details and recommendations which the various member States should incorporate into their educational system, whether formal or non-formal education. To this end, this paper shows the results of a research carried out in the year 2009/2010 in the Teacher Training Masters for High School Teachers of the University of Zaragoza. The aim was to analyse how assessment processes were developing, with what procedures, techniques, types, etc., with the aim of introducing innovation processes leading to improved student learning. This longitudinal study is based on multiple cases whose statistically representative sample consists of 124 students and is developed with quantitative and qualitative methodology. Results of this research conclude that it is possible to introduce other types of evaluation techniques contributing to promote meaningful, collaborative, social and open learning.

Ostatnie zmiany wdrażane na uniwersytecie kształcącym nauczycieli spowodowały znaczący wzrost zainteresowania dodatkowym kształceniem na innych kierunkach w celu poszerzenia kompetencji. W niektórych przypadkach jest to spowodowane wymaganiami, a w innych tym, że tytuł magistra ułatwia dostęp do poszerzania wiedzy. Typ edukacyjnych praktyk, które wprowadziła EHEA (European Higher Education Area), jest uzasadniony procesem integracji europejskiej. Z Brukseli przesyłane są nowe szczegóły i rekomendacje, które państwa członkowskie powinny wprowadzić do swoich systemów edukacyjnych. Artykuł przedstawia wyniki badań przeprowadzanych w latach 2009/2010 na Uniwersytecie w Saragossie. Celem badania była analiza tego, w jaki sposób rozwijał się proces oceny nauczania, jakie stosowano procedury i techniki. Badanie oparte jest na opiniach grupy 124 studentów i zawiera analizy jakościowe i ilościowe. Wyniki badań wskazują, że możliwe jest wprowadzenie innych typów technik oceny, aby przyczynić się do promocji zrozumiałego, otwartego nauczania opartego na współpracy.
