The present study highlights the implementation of information and communication technology (ICT) in education via the use of many educational software programs from the Internet, which every teacher can use with their students. Some learning materials are produced by individuals who are not aware of the pedagogical principles and do not know how to produce effective educational software. Therefore, the question arises: Are the teachers competent in choosing multimedia learning materials? And if they compose multimedia learning materials by themselves, are they aware of the features of multimedia which are effective or which hinder learning? The study was carried out to seek answers to these questions and find out the relationships between the teachers' evaluation of software used and the learning outcomes by students in primary education. The results are based on a correlation study where 34 multimedia drills and practice materials were used for learning. Each multimedia drill was evaluated by ten primary teachers, who had used these drills with their students and saw how the students managed with each particular drill. The evaluations by the teachers were gathered by means of questionnaires, using a 10-point scale covering 17 aspects of the drills. Each drill was used by 80 students of the 3rd form from the same schools. The learning outcomes provided by the students were evaluated by pre- and post-tests. The results of the study imply that the teachers were not able to recognise efficient multimedia learning materials.

The dynamic development of (ICT) information-communication technologies used in the widely understood business and in the management revealed the lack of high qualified workers on the labour market who possess the knowledge and skills of ICT application in these areas. The proposal of the new Business Informatics (BI) field of study can fill this gap. The aim of the article is the presentation of project of learning outcomes at the BI field of study. In the binding model of National Qualification Framework defining learning outcomes underlies elaboration of teaching curriculum at the BI field of study. The article discussed NQF, the rules of defining the learning outcomes, the foundamentals of education program design and indicated the possibility of the utilization of ICT (PSSOR system) in the verification of plan and the program of studies by means of directional effects.

Przedmiotem badań uczyniono aspiracje edukacyjne maturzystów oraz ich związek z osiągnięciami szkolnymi. Badania przeprowadzono w grupie 615 uczniów z sześciu szkół województwa śląskiego. Analiza uzyskanych wyników wskazuje, że uczniowie przejawiają wysokie aspiracje długoplanowe związane z planowanym poziomem wykształcenia, niższe aspiracje aktualistyczne dotyczące bieżących osiągnięć oraz najniższe dążenia samokształceniowe. Wysokie aspiracje edukacyjne sprzyjają uzyskiwaniu wyższych osiągnięć szkolnych. Najkorzystniejszy wpływ na wyniki szkolne mają aspiracje samokształceniowe, które jednak w badanej grupie były najniższe.

This study investigated the relationship between the educational aspirations of secondary school graduates and their educational achievements. 615 pupils form six Silesian schools participated in the study. The results revealed that they display high level of longterm aspirations tied with getting and education, but low level of short-term aspirations and self-education. While higher educational aspirations favour educational achievements, the most predictive for learning outcomes are self-educational aspirations. The latter, however, were the weakest in the study group.

The paper’s topic refers to phenomenographic research with the participation of adult educators. The paper reflects educators’ concepts regarding expected learning outcomes or the learning process. These individual concepts were identified based on reconstructions of adult educators’ experiences. The purpose of the paper is to demonstrate the variety of approaches which educators apply in the educational process and the learning outcomes that adult learners are expected to achieve – according to the educators’ assumptions. Reference to selected theoretical models included in the paper allows looking at the theoretical context.

This research aimed to examine the strategy effectiveness of the Integrating Inquiry-based learning and Student Teams Achievement Division (INSTAD) compared to other strategies: Inquiry; Student Teams Achievement Division (STAD); and conventional learning, in order to narrow Upper Academic Ability (AA) and Lower Academic Ability (AB) science students’ learning outcome gap. As many as 136 research subject, consisting of AA and AB 7th grade students in equal numbers were selected using stratified random sampling from 27 State Junior High Schools in Surakarta, Indonesia. This research employed 4x2 factorial design as a method. Students’ learning results were measured with an essay test, then analyzed using Anakova. Findings demonstrate that INSTAD is the optimum strategy to constrict AA and AB students’ science grade point average, compared to Inquiry, STAD, and conventional learning.

Utilizing Marcia’s theory, a pilot study was conducted to determine the relation between the identity status of students and their performance using differing teaching methods (in-class and e-learning). The sample consisted of teaching students, and the main criterion was the use of e-learning. The Identity Status Test and standardized knowledge tests were used to collect data. No relation was identified between the identity status of students and their in-class and e-learning performance. However, the group utilizing e-learning achieved better results compared to the in-class group. Determining the importance of an e-learner’s identity is also necessitated by the need to develop appropriate counselling strategies. The analyses rendered possible a preliminary verification of the utility of the concept for the purpose of explicating the issue of the e-learning performance of contemporary students. The conclusions drawn from the study may also offer utility for adapting mentoring processes to the needs of learners. The author identifies and underlines the need for further, more comprehensive empirical research on the identity of e-learners within the context of their study program, age and gender.

Implementation of participatory action research during pedagogical practice facilitates sustainable education because its objective is to understand professional practice, enrich the capacity of involved participants and an opportunity to make inquiries for the improvement of quality. In the research of professional practice, subjects explore themselves; research is critically informative, active and action-oriented. Basing on the analysis of the prospective teachers' professional independence formation during pedagogical practice, the conditions for the individual's sustainable professional development are updated, the principles of organising pedagogical practice are determined. The experts' opinion method was applied in the evaluation of the developed practice model. Four experts from four Latvian universities were involved in the questionnaire; the content analysis of expert opinions was performed. As a result, the opportunities of the developed model to ensure sustainable education as well as its strengths and weaknesses were determined. Activation of the holistic and action approaches to develop students' independent professional activity and ensure sustainable education, cooperation context, targeted planning of the student-centred process, orientation to students' self-experience, respect of research aspects were completely appreciated.

This paper reports from a qualitative study on informal conditions for the implementation credit transfer system in vocation education and training (VET) in Poland based on European Credit System for Vocational Education and Training (ECVET). The study was conducted just before the new law of VET (October 1st 2011) came into force. It introduced: (1)new vocational core curriculum which includes 200 school occupations, in which 252 qualifications are distinguished, (2) learning outcomes approach, (3) the examination requirements based on learning outcomes specified for the qualifications, and other tools supporting credit transfer and accumulation. The main purpose of the paper is to analyse the VET stakeholders knowledge, understanding and opinion on these new solutions and general on credit transfer and accumulation concept which aims at supporting development of lifelong learning. On the very general level respondents support all solutions that could improve learners employability and education opportunities. However part of them do not perform in-depth knowledge and reflections on such concepts as learning outcomes approach. They indicate also a number of drawbacks of the VET reform in Poland that is implemented in a hurry without sufficient support for schools, teachers and learners.

In this article, I pose the question of the role of academic education in social reality marked by the logic of corporate system, which is a product of neoliberal culture. Herein, I argue that the instrumentalization of the role of both the university and its mission — as woven into a discourse of knowledge society, which constitutes the official interpretation of the EU's position towards the goals of education, including academic education — is accompanied by contemporary practices of subjectification (assujettissment) of students as subjects of academic education. These practices are related to imposed forms of establishing, accomplishing and verifying educational goals in academic education (i.e. learning outcomes) and they lead to construing of submissive forms of identities of students.

There is growing evidence that the traditional “instruction-centered approach” to learning is not producing the desired learning outcomes in students. Many institutions of higher education in Thailand make it their main thrust to enable their students to become critical, independent thinkers and have the sense of ownership in the learning process. Most schools have shifted the focus in the classroom from conventional teaching to facilitating effective learning. This study centered on the impact of adopting the “learner-centered approach.” Fifty students studying Industrial and Logistics Management at North Bangkok University took part in the assessment. The case study method was utilized and quantitative as well as qualitative data were generated with the use of a questionnaire and semi-structured interviews. Findings revealed that the implementation of “Learner-Centered Education” enhanced the learning outcomes and contributed to the attainment of quality education for the university.

Proces Boloński stawia przed nami nie lada wyzwanie: jak zapewnić jednocześnie porównywalność efektów kształcenia i zachowanie różnorodności form kształcenia w ramach zintegrowanej Europy? Narzędziem umożliwiającym realizację tego zadania mają być Krajowe Ramy Kwalifikacji (KRK). Kwalifikacje definiuje się jako tytuł, stopień itp., utożsamiany z odpowiadającym mu dyplomem, świadectwem, certyfikatem lub innym dokumentem, wydawanym po zakończeniu pewnego etapu kształcenia, poświadczający uzyskanie zakładanych efektów kształcenia. Właśnie określenie efektów kształcenia powinno być punktem wyjścia organizacji procesu edukacji. Przechodzenie europejskiego szkolnictwa wyższego na system kształcenia opartego na efektach (outcome-based approach – OBA) jest już faktem, idea OBA nie jest jednak wolna od wątpliwości. Na przykład, czy skupianie się na uzyskiwaniu wyników nie zabije „akademickości” kształcenia, służącego poszerzaniu horyzontów? Czy nie uczyni z uczelni czegoś na kształt wyższej szkoły zawodowej?

Bologna process presents us with a challenge: how to ensure both the comparability of learning outcomes and preserve the diversity of education in an integrated Europe? The National Qualifications Framework (NQF) is going to be a tool for dealing with this task. Qualification is defined as a title, degree, etc., identified with the corresponding diploma, certificate or other document, issued after a certain stage of education, certifying that one obtained the intended learning outcomes. It is determining learning outcomes which should be the starting point for the organization of the educational process. Transition of European higher education system to education based on outcomes (outcome-based approach – OBA) is a fact. Still, the idea of OBA presents some doubts. For example, will not focusing on getting results kill ‘academic’ aspect of education, responsible for broadening horizons? Will not it (the transition process) transform an academy into something resembling higher vocational school?

Artykuł stanowi próbę odpowiedzi na pytanie zawarte w tytule. Jest przykładem krytycznego podejścia, zarówno w odniesieniu do samej idei „europejskich”, jak i „krajowych” ram kwalifikacji, jak i sposobu ich opracowania w Polsce. Główne wątpliwości dotyczą z jednej strony możliwości dokonania właściwego zróżnicowania konkretnych kwalifikacji na poszczególnych poziomach studiów. Z drugiej zaś możliwości właściwego zoperacjonalizowania określonych efektów kształcenia.

Motywacja do uczenia się jest jednym z najważniejszych czynników decydujących o podejmowaniu przez uczniów aktywności edukacyjnej. O jej trwałości decyduje fakt, czy została wywołana czynnikiem zewnętrznym czy też wynika z wewnętrznego przekonania o potrzebie posiadania wiedzy. W artykule przedstawiono opinie nauczycieli na temat motywacji uczniów do uczenia się.

Motivation to get knowledge is one of the most important factors resulting in students educational activity. Its durability comes out of the fact whether motivation was caused by external factor or inner belief that it is necessary to posess some knowledge. The article contains opinions given by the teachers about students educational motivations.

Introduction: Social competences are the one of three categories of learning outcomes collaterally to knowledge and skills which should be evaluated and verified in students by academies. Polish Qualifications Framework obligate academies to do it, but we can see difficulties in matching methods and evaluation tools. The study shows how academic teachers deal with creating attitudes connected with social competences for paramedic students. The aim of our study was the recognition of the opinions of paramedic students and graduates about the effectiveness of teaching social competences during the entire period of education. Material and methods: Voluntary survey was conducted among third-year paramedic students and graduates. Closed questionnaire contained questions about the ten social skills which are in learning outcomes for the course of paramedic study. Open-ended question about the course in which, in the opinions of respondents, social competencies were implemented, was placed after each closed question. Results: Majority of respondents considered that the attitudes and behaviors expressed in social competence for paramedics are implemented in a satisfactory manner. It was pointed out that lectures and exercises beneficial as a form of classes. Conclusions: The study shows the need to improve exercises as a top rated classes and draw attention to practical classes and practices that inadequately fulfill their function. Further research is needed in this direction because of the limitations of study and the lack of a representative group.

Kompetencje społeczne są jedną z trzech kategorii, obok wiedzy i umiejętności, jakie uczelnie dziś powinny wdrażać i weryfikować u studenta podczas realizacji programu nauczania. Pomimo, że zobowiązują do tego przyjęte w Polsce Krajowe Ramy Kwalifikacji, napotykamy trudności w doborze metod i narzędzi ewaluacji. Celem badania było poznanie opinii absolwentów oraz studentów kierunku Ratownictwo medyczne na temat skuteczności nauczania kompetencji społecznych podczas całego okresu studiowania. Przeprowadzono dobrowolne badanie sondażowe pośród studentów trzeciego roku ratownictwa medycznego oraz absolwentów naboru zimowego 2010/2011 Krakowskiej Akademii im. Andrzeja Frycza Modrzewskiego. Kwestionariusz zawierał pytania zamknięte dotyczące 10 kompetencji społecznych znajdujących się w kierunkowych efektach kształcenia dla tego kierunku studiów. Przy każdej odpowiedzi umieszczone było pytanie otwarte dotyczące przedmiotu, na którym, w opinii respondentów, realizowane były poszczególne kompetencje. Zdecydowana większość badanych uznała, że postawy oraz zachowania wyrażone w kompetencjach społecznych dla ratownictwa medycznego są realizowane w dostateczny sposób. Wskazywano przede wszystkim na korzystny wpływ wykładów i ćwiczeń jako formy zajęć. Badanie ukazuje potrzebę doskonalenia ćwiczeń jako zajęć najwyżej ocenionych i szczególnego zwrócenia uwagi na zajęcia praktyczne i praktyki, które niedostatecznie spełniają swoją funkcję. Konieczne są dalsze badania w tym kierunku ze względu na ograniczenia wykonanego badania i brak reprezentatywnej grupy badanych.

The problem of this article is to answer the question whether and to what extent the learning outcomes are achieved by students? The problem is illustrated on the basis of own research carried out on one of education university, majoring in Economics. The effectiveness of the implementation of the effects will be studied based on the subjective opinions of students regarding the scope of their assimilation. Survey was realized within pilot program as a part of systematic survey program “ An assessment of Economy study direction by the students” pointed in introducing students opinions concerning both quality and effectiveness of education but practical-implementation aim is to elaborate indications to improve education quality. An author used public opinion research – questionnaires to collect information. Subjective assessment of education effects realization level by students is positive but it is difficult to determine at that survey stage how realistic above mentioned assessment is. In the opinion of students an effectiveness of practical skills and competences gaining depends upon used research methods like: activating and project methods.

Celem niniejszego artykułu jest próba odpowiedzi na pytanie, czy i w jakim stopniu efekty kształcenia wyznaczone w formule Krajowych Ram Kwalifikacyjnych są osiągane przez studentów? Problem zobrazowany został na podstawie badań własnych przeprowadzonych na jednej z lubelskich uczelni wyższych, na kierunku Ekonomia. Skuteczność realizacji efektów badana była na podstawie subiektywnych opinii studentów dotyczących zakresu ich przyswojenia. Badania miały charakter pilotażowy. Stanowią one część systematycznych badań, które są planowane w ramach projektu badawczego Ocena kierunku studiów Ekonomia przez studentów, którego celem poznawczym jest zapoznanie się z opiniami studentów na temat jakości i skuteczności kształcenia, zaś celem praktyczno-wdrożeniowym, opracowanie wskazań do poprawy jakości kształcenia. Metodą zbierania informacji była metoda sondażowa, w ramach której zastosowano kwestionariusz ankiety.Subiektywna ocena poziomu realizacji efektów kształcenia przez studentów jest pozytywna. Trudno jednak określić, na tym etapie badań, czy jest realistyczna. Studenci wskazują, że skuteczność osiągania praktycznych umiejętności i kompetencji społecznych zależy w dużej mierze od stosowanych metod badawczych, tj. metod aktywizujących i projektowych.

Ze względu na znaczenie i korzyści płynące z edukacji nie tylko dla jej indywidualnych uczestników, ale także dla społeczności (od skali lokalnej aż po wymiar globalny) władze państw przyjmują na siebie obowiązek jej pełnego lub częściowego finansowania ze środków publicznych, co nie wyklucza wydatków prywatnych. Kluczowym problemem ekonomiki edukacji jest analiza efektywności tego finansowania poprzez określenie relacji efektów do nakładów. Niniejsze opracowanie przedstawia zarys problematyki pomiaru efektywności finansowania usług edukacyjnych (szczególnie: ze źródeł publicznych) na podstawie krytycznego przeglądu literatury oraz wyników własnych dotychczasowych analiz. Autorka prezentuje oryginalną koncepcję badań nad efektywnością finansowania edukacji (planowane kierunki, zakres, hipotezy i metody), zapowiadając jednocześnie cykl publikacji dotyczący uwarunkowań jej pomiaru.

Due to the significance and benefits of education for individual participants and communities (both in the local and global dimension), state authorities commit themselves to full or partial public funding, which does not exclude private spending. The key issue for the economics of education is to analyse the efficiency of education funding by defining a relationship between effects and expenditures. This paper outlines the problems of measuring the efficiency of education funding (from public funds in particular) based on a critical literature review and the results of the author’s previous analysis. The author presents an original concept of research into the efficiency of education funding (intended direction, scope, hypotheses and methods), announcing a series of publications about the conditions for its measurement.
