METHODS OF COOPERATIVE LEARNING AND THEIR APPLICATION IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF COMPETITIVE THEMES IN TEACHING MATHEMATICS

Journal Title: Human Research in Rehabilitation - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 0

Abstract

Contemporary changes in the whole system of education and training require the teacher to be a person of trust, educator, counselor, friend, organizer, coordinator, associate, innovator, assessor, mentor; in another words, a contemporary and modern person. In the modern school (even more in the future) the role of the teacher is far wider. He needs to be active in school, outside of school, within free activities, as well as cultural and public activities of the school. A good teacher does not resist the influence of a student, because his or her extremely responsible role can be successfully achieved, if they work well with them. To cooperate in this context does not mean that only the teacher listens to the student's suggestions, although that is also very important, but cooperating means accepting the student's proposal, if they are objectively acceptable or explain why a particular proposal cannot be realized. It is not possible to work well and democratically in the classroom if the student's influence is not accepted. If the teacher's behavior and style of work are not necessarily limited to the work and behavior of a student, then there is no interaction, and the teaching process must be an interaction. Changes in the society affect school changes, and changes in school play the most important role in changing the position of the teacher and his role and the style of work in the teaching process. The survival and future of the school is reflected in its educational role. In order for a teacher to be an educator, to fulfill his or her educational role, he/she must love or sympathize with the kids, respect their opinion, encourage them to achieve good results, but also to share with them possible misunderstandings and failures. The success and superiority of teachers as educators depends more on the quality of the relationships established, and less on the knowledge of the subject being taught, even though this component cannot be ignored.Thanks to the good work style, the teacher can achieve better results in the educational process. This does not only apply to the choice of working methods, but the style of work is reflected in the overall in - dividual pedagogical practice of teachers. In the style of work the teacher expresses his / her independence, creativity, initiative, democracy or authoritarianism, lack of competence, irresponsibility. In modern school, children need to play a central role, and the school should become a place where they are exploring, examining, solving problems and to lead them to a deliberate dialogue. Students need to experience the school as a place where the child develops in cognitive, emotional and social sense, and where the child's motivation to work is at a high level. Active teaching (active learning, active school) is an original pedagogical creation based on theoretical settings and practical attempts of transformation of a traditional school into an active school, i.e. a school in which both the student and the teacher have an active role. Thinking about active learning is inspired by the works of Kerenstahner (work school), Laj, Dekrol (school for life and life), Klapard (school by sea), Djuij (pragmatic conception), Montesori, Fereira (active school) Frenoa, Dalton plan, Vinteka-plan, etc.
