VALENCES OF INVESTIGATION METHOD APPLICATION IN THE STUDY OF BIOLOGY AND AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES PUBLISHED
Narcisa Georgeta Crista, Iasmina Cecilia Savescu NoneThe purpose of this paper is to render perspicuous the results of an ascertaining research on student perception regarding the way in which didactic methodology employed in the study of biology and agricultural sciences meets their study needs. Currently, the Romanian academic environment inter alia is thoroughly preoccupied with the quality of the instructional-educational process in relation to the rate of employment subsequent to the graduation on the work market. In this sense, organising the didactic and strategic activities applied in the instructive-educational process is of paramount importance. In order to carry out the research under scrutiny, an interview and a questionnaire were chosen as operational tools with the purpose of collecting information. They were applied to students majoring in Agriculture and Horticulture. Aspects regarding the study of science in general, as well as aspects specific to the study of biology and agricultural sciences were analysed. What is more, we have elicited some aspects regarding the different learning styles of students, didactic strategies, learning motivation in students, as well as the valences of scientific investigation use. This research project, through its highlighted results, contributes to the evaluation of the didactic process carried into effect at university level, to the reiteration of certain actions regarding the perfecting of didactic methodologies applied in the study of biology and agricultural sciences, as well as to the holistic organisation of the educational process. The conclusions drawn from the investigation point towards the success of science learning at a superior quality level through the direct involvement of the students in research and active learning
