Abstract

ORIG CZ

V originále

Interest of students in natural sciences shows a declining tendency all over the world. Chemistry along with physics belongs to the least popular subjects. Our research shows that one of the main causes of this state is the way chemistry is taught at schools. The students style of learning is currently changing due to the influence of information and communication technologies. It is thus necessary to seek innovative approaches to teaching chemistry. Using an interactive board is one of such approaches. The present paper describes outcomes of our design-based research in the form of an interactive multimedia textbook of chemistry for lower secondary schools. In one place, it integrates photographs, videos, interdisciplinary links, interactive exercises, audio recordings of a text of the given textbook, interesting facts and Internet links related to the subject matter of chemistry. The textbook has been compiled so that it helps teachers to alter the traditional style of teaching which is uninteresting for learners. It draws on studies dealing with characteristics of the present generation of learners, sometimes referred to as the Net generation, and respects their learning style.

In Czech

Zájem studentů o přírodní vědy má klesající tendenci na celém světě. Chemie a fyzika jsou nejméně oblíbené předměty. Náš výzkum dokládá, že hlavní příčinou je způsob výuky na školách. Styl učení žáků se mění směrem k užití ICT. Proto je třeba hledat nové přístupy k učení chemii. Užití interaktivní tabule je jednou z těchto cest. Článek prezentuje výsledky našeho konstrukčního výzkumu, které mají podobu interaktivní multimediální učebnice chemie pro základní školy. Na jednom místě integruje fotografie, videa, mezipředmětové vztahy, interaktivní úlohy, audionahrávky textu z učebnice, zajímavá fakta a webové odkazy na chemické materiály. Jde o studii s charakteristikami odpovídajícími současné NET generaci s respektem k jejich učebního stylu.
