The journal welcomes original empirical investigations. The papers may represent a variety of theoretical perspectives and different methodological approaches. They may refer to any age level, from infants to adults and to a diversity of learning and instructional settings, from laboratory experiments to field studies. The major criteria in the review and the selection process concern the significance of the contribution to the area of learning and teaching. IJLT covers all aspects of education; trends in education, the emerging and educational settings, instructional design, learning-teaching methods and applications, instructional multimedia, new education environments, theoretical principles, assessment and evaluation and related fields.

Students’ requriments of labor market, School-Community Partnership, computer-assisted studies in mathematics education, webquests have been included into this issue. The topics of the next issue will be different. You can make sure that we will be trying to serve you with our journal with a rich knowledge in which different kinds of topics are discussed in 2015 Volume.

A total of seven (11) manuscripts were submitted for this issue and each paper has been rigor peer reviewed by the reviewers specialized in the related field. At the end of the review process, a total of two (4) high quality research papers were selected and accepted for publication.

We thank all the contributors who helped us to publish this issue.

Requirements of students for further integration on labor market

A. Băneș — 2015-12-31

The theme of this work is a study on the conduct and topics of IT&C courses and laboratories in terms of those who listen, namely the students. As described in the paper, teacher-student working mode differs from university education to pre-university education. Therefore, it should be permanently reviewed, modified and enlarged the presentation method and the contents of disciplines. The study looked primarily how students would like to proceed a course or laboratory work. For this reason the questionnaire was anonymous and it was specified not to give details about the teachers, but only of the content and presentation. The students were selected from those who have attended the majority or even all hours and each had to express their views about the taught content subject, how to teach and how they would like to show those hours. After completion of the answers, each questionnaire was sent to a colleague, who expressed his opinion about the written and passed it on to another colleague. In this way, each came to express their opinion about each. The results showed clearly that essential change, or rather the requirement of all is geared to practical part of the discipline. The theoretical part is often regarded as a "necessary evil" because, often, to master the practice, we still need theoretical concepts. Also the offer of materials in electronic format (directly or through electronic platform) is welcomed as an aid for those who have other activities and may not participate to all exposures.

Keywords: students requirements, practical studies, labor market integration

School-Community Partnership - an effective tool, useful for environmental community development of Romanian countryside

A. Băneș — 2015-12-31

This paper presents the theoretical and practical implications of school - community partnership in community development of Romanian rural environment by conducting a content analysis of the addressed topic. In most Western countries, the trend of opening the school to the community is obvious. Because the resources for education are falling, the partnership can be an effective tool for better management of local resources, a way of attracting new resources for school, and harnessing the school resource in benefit of the community. Also, to ensure good quality education is necessary for every school to achieve a genuine partnership with its community. Under this partnership it is natural to find their place all social categories and all interested institutions in the development of education: human resources of the education system, students enrolled in schools, students families, government institutions and NGOs. In rural areas, the school is the most powerful institution, vital for community development. The school must be open to the needs of the rural community to identify those areas where it can develop community partnerships: alternative leisure activities for children and youth, activities of road education, health, helping the elderly and poor families, involvement in humanitarian campaigns, etc. The role of the school, parents and local authorities is very great, and the development of an active partnership between these participants in Romanian rural areas would reduce school dropout and integrate children with special educational needs. Schools that have developed genuine partnerships within the local school shows that the benefits are significant.

The content analysis of the computer-assisted studies in mathematics education between the years 2009-2014/April

Huseyin Uzunboylu — 2015-12-31

In this study, the examination of the trends regarding the used methods and methods through the content analysis of the published articles and dissertations in the field of Computer-Assisted Mathematics Education is aimed. Within the scope of the research, the articles published in the database of ISI Web of Science and the dissertations published in the thesis centre of Turkish Council of Higher Education (YOK) were scanned and 7 master’s theses, 5 doctoral theses, and 43 articles were analysed. In this study, the distribution of articles and theses by years, the number of authors and by subjects and the used research methods and data collection methods were identified. After the percentages and the frequencies of the findings had been calculated, they were presented in the form of charts.

Keywords: computer-assisted mathematics education, computer-based education, mathematics ınstruction, mathematics, computer, content analysis.
