Povzetek

Nizozemski študentki matematike sta pod vodstvom mentorja pripravili e-gradivo na temo linearne funkcije za učence 9. razreda OŠ Toneta Okrogarja Zagorje ob Savi.
E-gradivo sta nato posredovali slovenskima učiteljema, ki sta ga pogledala in dopolnila glede na cilje učnega načrta ter predznanje 14-letnih učencev.
Sledilo je usklajevanje tima učiteljev iz obeh držav, kako izvesti obe načrtovani učni uri matematike.
Obe strani sta se strinjali, da se učni uri izvede s slovenskimi učenci in učitelji v razredu v živo, nizozemski študentki pa se sodelujeta preko VOX konference na daljavo.
E-gradivo pripravljeno s skupnim sodelovanjem je bilo zasnovano za pasivno rabo informacijsko komunikacijske tehnologije (IKT) pri pouku matematike.
IKT tokrat ni bila v vlogi kognitivnega pripomočka, s katerim naj bi si učenci pomagali pri pridobivanju novih matematičnih znanj, pač pa so jo sodelujoči uporabili, da dokažejo, kako razdalja, jezik in razlike v učnih načrtih niso ovira za medgeneracijsko  sodelovanje.
Ker sta za vse sodelujoče, učence, nizozemski študentki, njihovega mentorja in slovenska učitelja matematike, bili tako pripravljeni in izpeljani učni uri popolnoma nova izkušnja, se lahko pohvalimo, da sta bili uri matematike uspešno izvedeni in vsi zastavljeni cilji doseženi.

Abstract

Two Dutch students of mathematics under the guidance of their mentor prepared some e-learning material on Linear function for grade 9 students from Tone Okrogar Primary school from Zagorje ob Savi. The e-learning material was then forwarded to the two Slovenian teachers who reviewed and supplemented it with regard to the Slovenian curriculum objectives and to the 14 years-old students Maths knowledge.
After that the Dutch and Slovenian “team” of teachers discussed and harmonized the way the two Maths lessons should be carried out in the classroom.
We agreed to perform the two lessons together with the two Dutch students simultaneously - the Slovene students and their teachers in the classroom in live while the two Dutch students at a distance through VOX conference.
The e-learning material prepared in cooperation of both groups was designed for passive use of ICT in the classroom.
In this case ICT was not used as a cognitive tool for students to acquire new mathematical knowledge but with the help of it we proved how distance, language and the differences in the curricula could not be a barrier for intergenerational collaboration.
We can be proud of the two well prepared and carried out lessons and the planned goals achieved due to the fact that for all the participants, from Slovene students and their teacher of Mathematics to the two Dutch students and their mentor the described event was a completely new experience.
