Abstract

Aktivno učenje uključuje samostalno istraživanje, aktivnosti opažanja i bilježenja opažanja te zaključivanje koje se provodi temeljem opažanja. Aktivnim učenjem izbjegava se prenošenje gotovih činjenica i zaključaka, a znanja se stječu rješavanjem izazova i problema, čime se učenike potiče na njihov intelektualni angažman. Učinkovitost metoda aktivnog učenja može ovisiti o kontekstu problema koji se stavlja pred učenike, ali i o njihovoj zainteresiranosti za aktivnosti koje se provode u nastavi. Cilj je ovoga diplomskog rada na primjeru mikroskopiranja papučice predstaviti aktivnu metodu učenja koja se temelji na aktivnostima opažanja i bilježenja opažanja. Istraživanje se provodilo među studentima prve (N=31) i druge (N=34) godine integriranog preddiplomskog i diplomskog Učiteljskog studija te prve godine preddiplomskog studija Ranog i predškolskog odgoja i obrazovanja (N=44) u veljači 2024. godine. U istraživanju se od ispitanika tražilo da tijekom 90 minuta pozorno promatraju dva različita preparata u kojima se nalazio mikroorganizam papučica te da zabilježe i ilustriraju svoja opažanja na strukturirane radne protokole. Analizirano je ukupno 545 zadatka na protokolima i 545 odgovora na anketna pitanja koji su podvrgnuti analizi i razini točnosti, analizi razine razumijevanja te analizi crteža čiji su odgovori i crteži specifično kodirani. Na temelju odgovora s radnih listova, odnosno protokola, doneseni su zaključci na temelju provedenoga istraživanja koji ukazuju na površno razumjeli sadržaj ispitanika. Gotovo niti jedan ispitanik nije detaljno opisao svoja opažanja niti označio strukturu promatranog objekta. Rezultati ovoga rada uspoređeni su s primarnim istraživanjem koje je provedeno prije pandemije korona virusa, odnosno 2019. godine. Ispitanici primarnoga istraživanja u većoj su mjeri pokazali dublje razumijevanje sadržaja koji je bio predmet promatranja, dok su sudionici istraživanja 2024. pokazali kako su njihove vještine i stečeno znanje dosta površni. Prema dobivenim rezultatima zaključeno je da je pandemija korona virusa pridonijela smanjenju kvalitete obrazovanja i razvoja dubljeg razumijevanja sadržaja kod studenata navedenih ispitnih skupina.

Abstract (english)

Active learning involves independent research, observation activities, recording observations, and drawing conclusions based on these observations. Active learning avoids the transmission of ready-made facts and conclusions; instead, knowledge is acquired through solving challenges and problems, encouraging students' intellectual engagement. The effectiveness of active learning methods can depend on the context of the problems presented to students as well as their interest in the activities conducted in class. The goal of this thesis is to present the observation of Paramecium through an example of an active learning method based on observation and recording activities. The research was conducted among first-year (N=31) and second-year (N=34) students of the integrated undergraduate and graduate teacher education program, as well as firstyear students of the undergraduate program in early and preschool education (N=44) in February 2024. In the study, participants were asked to carefully observe two different slides containing the microorganism Paramecium for 90 minutes and to record and illustrate their observations on structured worksheets. A total of 545 tasks on the worksheets and 545 survey tasks were analyzed for accuracy, level of understanding, and analysis of drawings, with responses and drawings being specifically coded. Based on the worksheets, conclusions were drawn indicating a superficial understanding of the content by the participants. Almost none of the participants provided detailed descriptions of their observations or labeled their drawings. The results of this study were compared with primary research conducted before the coronavirus pandemic, in 2019. Participants in the primary research showed a deeper understanding of the observed content, whereas participants in the 2024 study demonstrated relatively superficial skills and knowledge. The results suggest that the coronavirus pandemic contributed to a decline in the quality of education and the development of a deeper understanding of content among the students of the mentioned groups
