TALK

Different Learner Types, Different Teaching Types

Jana Pertot Tomažič

Every day, teachers are faced with the challenge of how to get our students to understand and remember what we teach them. In doing so, we tend to draw on our own experiences. Most often, we do things in ways that are familiar to us or that we ourselves have used to help us remember the matter more easily.

TALK

The IZZI ROKUS digital learning platform with interactive materials for primary and secondary school teachers and students is an exceptional tool for modern teachers who are looking to use the most advanced teaching methods in the classroom.

Ben Naughton-Rumbo

TALK

Why are Concentration Problems on the Rise and How to Improve Students’ Concentration

Veera Virintie in Johanna Vilmi

An increasing number of people around the world are experiencing concentration issues. In Finland, home to the world’s leading education system, students’ concentration issues doubled during the pandemic. Similarly, burnout among schoolchildren and students is on the rise.

TALK

Good Energy is (Your) Strength – A Psychological Perspective on Teacher Motivation

Dr. Eva Boštjančič

In increasingly complex school situations, the teacher has been and remains an educator, a pedagogue, a motivator and, of course, a role model. The role of the teacher is demanding, the workload is increasing, and the expectations of parents are often unrealistic.

TALK

Education as a Social Subsystem – A Strategy of the Partnership for Quality and Equity in the Education System

Prof. Dr. Slavko Gaber

The challenges of digitalization (and, increasingly, artificial intelligence), which extend deep into the fields of digital media repertoires and presentations, are an integral part of shaping new forms of existence and aim at the essence of the human being of the future.

Digitalno izobraževanje v šoli je edinstveno po svoji sposobnosti, da dijakom ponudi individualno izkušnjo obenem pa vzpostavi družbeno držo, saj vsi delijo isto znanje in dosegajo cilje skupaj.
