Secondary abstract: |
Definition of literacy has been constantly changing. It has been influenced by changes in society, globalisation and development of technology. Literacy was at first defined mostly as ability of reading and writing. However, recent definitions are more complex; moreover, there are may kinds of literacy: reading, mathematical, statistical, natural science, environmental, emotional, intercultural, aesthetic, family, informational, legal etc. Functional literacy stands out in this context as a sort of a cover literacy.
Theoretical part of this thesis discusses various kinds of literacy with emphasis on the functional literacy of preschool teachers.
The aim of the thesis Functional Literacy of Preschool Teachers is to research the functional literacy level of teachers in some of the kindergartens and first classes of primary school in Slovenia. For this purpose, research questions have been framed. Results were obtained by analysing the survey questionnaires. The analysis showed an important influence of formal education of preschool teachers on the way tasks included in the questionnaire were solved. |

Abstract (ePrints): |
Definicija pismenosti se je skozi čas spreminjala. Nanjo so vplivale spremembe v družbi, globalizacija in razvoj tehnike. Prve definicije so pismenost opredeljevale predvsem kot sposobnost branja in pisanja, novejše pa so bolj kompleksne; govorimo tudi o več vrstah pismenosti: bralna, matematična, statistična, naravoslovna, okoljska, čustvena, medkulturna, estetska, družinska, informacijska, pravna … Funkcionalna pismenost v tem kontekstu izstopa kot nekakšna krovna pismenost.
V teoretičnem delu diplomske naloge so obravnavane različne vrste pismenosti s poudarkom na funkcionalni pismenosti vzgojiteljic in vzgojiteljev.
Namen diplomske naloge Funkcionalna pismenost vzgojiteljic je raziskati raven funkcionalne pismenosti vzgojiteljic oz. vzgojiteljev v nekaterih slovenskih vrtcih in v prvih dveh razredih OŠ. V ta namen so bila postavljena raziskovalna vprašanja, na katera smo skušali odgovoriti s pomočjo analize anketnih vprašalnikov. Analiza je pokazala pomemben vpliv formalne izobrazbe vzgojiteljic na uspešnost reševanja nalog na anketnem vprašalniku. |
