Interactive learning environment for children in the beliefs of pre-school teachers

Abstract

Prispevek je oblikovan v okviru nastajajočega doktorskega dela z naslovom Izobraževanje in usposobljenost razrednih učiteljev v zvezni državi Kansas in Sloveniji za poučevanje v razredih z otroki priseljenci. Raziskava z naslovom Vključevanje multikulturnih vsebin ameriških (zvezna država Kansas) razrednih učiteljev v poučevanje, ki je bila v letu 2007 izvedena na vzorcu 89 učiteljic in učiteljev razrednega pouka, za slovenski izobraževalni prostor predstavlja enega od dejavnikov pri ugotavljanju ustreznosti dodiplomskega izobraževanja s področja vsebin multikulturnega izobraževanja za učitelje razrednega pouka v Sloveniji in ZDA (zvezna država Kansas) ter usposobljenosti razrednih učiteljev za delo z otroki priseljenci v obeh državah. Čeprav ima multikulturno izobraževanje v zahodnih državah dolgoletno tradicijo, je naša raziskava dokazala, da so za ameriške razredne učitelje (zvezna država Kansas) še vedno značilna odstopanja glede dejanskega in optimalnega vključevanja multikulturnih vsebin v pouk. Omenjeno nakazuje, da je treba v prihodnje na dodiplomskem študiju še več časa namenjati pridobivanju multikulturnih kompetenc ter praktičnih izkušenj za delo z različnostjo.

Secondary abstract:	The following academic article is based on a PhD thesis that is currently being completed, titled Education and Qualifications of Elementary School Teachers in the U.S. State of Kansas and Slovenia for teaching in classes with immigrant children. The research study titled Integrating Multicultural Subject Matters into Teaching Strategies of Elementary School Teachers (The U.S. State of Kansas), conducted in 2007 based on a sample of 89 elementary school teachers in the U.S. State of Kansas, represents one aspect of assessing the adequacy of undergraduate education regarding multicultural subject matters for elementary school teachers in Slovenia and the U.S. (State of Kansas) as well as the qualifications of elementary school teachers of both countries for working with immigrant children. Despite the long-standing tradition of multicultural education in western countries, the research results for Kansas elementary school teachers showed a presence of significant discrepancies between the actual and optimal integration of multicultural subject matters. These results indicate that future undergraduate study programs will have to invest more time in developing multicultural skills and providing practical experiences for working in a diverse environment.
