EMOTIONAL FEEDBACK IN ELEARNING INNOVATIVE DESIGNS IN THE ROMANIAN UNIVERSITY PROGRAM
No full textCurrent literature indicates low levels of correlation between science students andemotional engagement during course interactions. While students enrollinghumanistic courses tend to display higher levels of correlation with emotional states,it becomes important to identify the extent to which these classifications are genderrelated. The current investigation will address the first section, and will look at howgender influences emotional engagement of students enrolled in IT courses in aRomanian University. The literature to date highlights a positive correlationbetween female emotional feedback and academic engagement and a neutral ornegative correlation between male students and academic engagement. To advancethe discussion, a survey exploring factors of emotional predisposition has beenemailed to students enrolled in a graduate programme at the University of AurelVlaicu, Arad. It is being hypothesized that gender has a determining influence onemotional relevance, and that results will indicate that academic engagement growsexponentially with female emotional feedback
REFERENTIAL OF PROFESSIONAL COMPETENCIES AT THE TEACHING STAFF
No full textFor teachers, to fulfill their high quality, performing, and efficient duty, they mustcreate a vast range of qualities, competencies, used to define them as a specialist,scientist, person of culture, educator, citizen and manager. The teacher meets asomewhat important occupation, to be part of their students or pupils influencewhen it comes to forming their personality and to prepare them for their futuresocio-professional, moral and citizen activities. The competencies of the didacticstaff represent an ensemble of cognitive, affective, motivational and managerialcapacities that interact with their personal traits. These didactic and professionalcompetences are formed throughout the time and are but a combination ofeveryone’s very knowledge, abilities and adequate attitudes. The efficiency of thedidactic staff is made up by, firstly, the results of the students’ or pupils’ instructiveeducationalprocesses, and secondly, the competences that define them and arerecommended to them, as specialist, with the aim of raising students’ or pupils’personalities. These competences, once gained, will face changes and may beenhanced throughout career
MUSIC EDUCATION, CREATIVITY AND CURRICULA. THE CONTRIBUTION OF THE TEACHER'S PRACTICAL KNOWLEDGE IN THE CURRICULUM DESIGN
No full textIn the last decades, research on music education has witnessed a significant increase focusing on different epistemological perspectives. Any artistic experiences represent an essential right aimed at enhancing creativity as well as fostering creative entrepreneurship, as recently confirmed by recent international policies, programmes, and best practices which underline the innovative, social, economic and occupational role of creativity. In Italy, music culture in the school system is backed by several legislative provisions; nevertheless, the role of music in school curricula still suffers from a certain subordination. We discuss the outcomes of a survey carried out within the project named “A vertical experimentation of musicâ€. The methodological protocol has been articulated according to the practice analysis’ framework. The survey – conducted through in-depth interviews (target: 25 music instruments teachers) – allowed for an insight into the contribution of teachers' practical knowledge in music curriculum planning stages
REGULATION DIFFICULTY IN CYBERBULLYING INCIDENTS: 10.24250/JPE/2/2019/DR/ED/AFR/TD/SI/GR
No full textEmotional regulation refers to our emotional response to a particular situation. It is defined as the deliberate or automatic attempt of a person to influence what emotions to have, when and how to have them and how to express them.To tackle the relationship between helping attitudes and emotional regulation scale in cyberbullying incidents, our project Hate’s Journey, financed by Erasmus+, 2018-2-ES02-KA205-011733 has designed an online questionnaire composed by some single item research questions, general data collection and tests regarding emotional regulation, internet content awareness and helping attitudes. The hypothesis of this research is that between helping attitudes and emotional regulation scale in cyberbullying incidents there is a curvilinear effect. Research’s 206 participants are residents of Latvia in 24.8%, Romania 24.8%, Spain 24.8%, and Turkey 25.7%, 39.8% males and 60.2% females, age mean of m=30 years. In order to test our curvilinear hypothesis, we have used SPSS’ multiple linear regression analysis, based on multiple regression analysis for curvilinear effects, where helping attitudes scale was the dependent variable for the independent variables emotional regulation. As results show in Model 1 the model that supposes linear relationship, emotional regulation difficulty accounts for 7% of the variance in helping attitudes with an F=16.699 significant at a p<.01. In Model 2, the model that supposes curvilinear relationship, emotional regulation difficulty accounts for 13% of the variance in helping attitudes with an 16.323 significant at a p<.01.Results show that a very highlevel of emotional regulation difficulties and a very low level of emotional regulation difficulties play an important role in the process ofhelping attitudes display, acting like a buffering effect. Conclusions on further testing of a moderated mediation effect and implications are discussed
ANALYZING AND SUPPORTING THE WELL-BEING THROUGH EDUCATION IN AN INTERCULTURAL-SOCIETY: 10.24250/JPE/2/2019/RMN
No full textThe paper is the result of a long term observation and of my personal experience put in the context of n in-depth reflection, based on the documentation focused on the theoretical aspects involved understood and connected among them.The leading role of education, in connection to heredity and background, for the complex process of developing the human character is put into the context of the new manifestation of migration nowadays, at the beginning of this new millennium.This role is considered in connection with the processes of enculturation, acculturation, and cultural adaptation in the context of changing the status of an emigrant to the status of an immigrant.The specific issues of migration nowadays are briefly but openly approached. The way in which education is involved in each of the mentioned processes is synthetically presented. The paper opens routes for further development of reflections upon the educational priorities in the years to come. Even if it is an already debated issue, the core topic of this paper seems to become crucial these years when new faces of migration appear to be a priority of humanity concern. The paper tries to suggest that proper formal education, well designed, creatively and effectively implemented and carefully assessed and managed can support in a positive way the synergy of informal and no-formal education in different contexts of human lives. This synergy can be the fundamental of genuine well-being, even if this concept itself is strongly subjective
REVENGE AND IGNORANCE AS WEAPONS OF HATE SPEECH: 10.24250/JPE/2/2019/GK/DR/RM/ED/AE/EB
No full textThe year 2019, among some positive aspects, reflects some worrying aspects. Among them, the most harmful seems to be hate speech. Present at all levels of society, both in Romania and in the world, hatred brings with it the rejection of difference, negativity, violence and aggression. To tackle psychological sources of hate speech, our project Hate’s Journey, financed by Erasmus+, 2018-2-ES02-KA205-011733 has designed an online questionnaire composed by some single item research questions, general data collection and tests regarding emotional regulation, internet content awareness and helping attitudes. The hypothesis of this research is that the revenge thinking pattern and ignoring attitude towards the negative effects of hate speech are powerful predictors of future online perpetrator pattern of hate speech. Research’s 206 participants are residents of Latvia in 24.8%, Romania 24.8%, Spain 24.8%, and Turkey 25.7%, with an age mean of m=30 years, 39.8% males and 60.2% females. A multiple linear regression was calculated to predict the online hate speech perpetrator pattern. As results show, revenge thinking pattern (B=0.365, SE=0.082, Beta=0.317, t=4.452 at a p < 0.001) and ignoring attitude towards the negative effects of hate speech (B=0.233, SE=0.076, Beta=0.219, t=3.076 at a p < 0.005) are significant predictors of hate speech perpetrator pattern. Conclusions and implications are discussed
COMMUNICATION IN THE MEDIA INFORMATION SOCIETY: 10.24250/JPE/2/2019/RMR
No full textThe article performs a analysis of communication. Speech, natural communication, epistemological discourse translate self-referential analysis into a paradigm. The quest for fundaments is transposed into fallacious and improvable statements which are placed in an absurd field. I have already proven the fact that the human mind and thought acts in a binary manner. This idea belongs to the psychology of conformity. Consequently, communication is simplified both culturally and in terms of civilization. Obviously, we have not evolved much culturally or in axiological terms since the Antiquity. The result is today`s society which is ideologically-unethical, morally-unaesthetic, competitively-equal or properly-false etc. basically, a phenomenological analysis of the fundaments of speech is enough to understand the current humanity
THEORETICAL CONTRIBUTIONS AND COHERENT STRATEGIES IN EARLY EDUCATION IN ROMANIA: 10.24250/JPE/2/2019/CVI
No full textThe early development of the child occurs as a cumulative effect of the child's care, nutrition, stimulation and education and social protection, which implies a series of interventions specific to each of these areas that should work in a coherent and integrated way. The present study aims to analyze the theoretical contributions from the perspective of development and learning that support the introduction of the concept of early education both in the legislative documents and in the curricular documents in the education system and to identify coherent curricular strategies in the early education in Romania. Thus, the theoretical accumulations and experience of the early education programs of the last decades at international level, at present, draw much more clearly the territories of a quality early education. Some theories, although they have been stated several decades ago, benefit from new interpretations or reconfirmations due to research undertaken in the field of child development psychology, neuropsychology, and longitudinal studies on the effects of early education program
CHILDREN’S RIGHT TO BENEFIT FROM HEALTH SERVICES AND HEALTH EDUCATION: 10.24250/JPE/2/2019/MAG
No full textHealth is a basic human right for all children. Children have the right to grow up healthy and to receive education regarding a healthy behavior. According to the World Health Organization’s concept of health, a healthy and educated life is a qualitative life. Children’s right to health consists of three different aspects: cultural, social and economic rights. The right to benefit from health services is regulated by a few international conventions, such as: 'Universal Declaration of Human Rights', 'International Convention on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights', 'Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities' (O.N.U, 1991). Access to optimum health services is necessary for good health. Health is a fundamental right for all categories of children, including children with special needs (W.H.O., 2001). This paper analyses the importance of children’s right to health and the practical possibilities to improve the accessibility and addressability of children to medical health services. Conclusion: Children’s health can be seen as a bio-psycho-social whole
