RT Journal Article SR Electronic A1 Štěpánková, Bronislava A1 Emanovský, Petr T1 On integration of isolated pupils into the class using modern teaching methods JF e-Pedagogium YR 2013 VO 13 IS 2 SP 7 OP 17 DO 10.5507/epd.2013.015 UL https://e-pedagogium.upol.cz/en/artkey/epd-201302-0002.php AB Successful pedagogical work is unthinkable without good knowledge of relationships of pupils in the classroom. The knowledge is important especially in the case of a class of teenagers. The article deals with the issue of isolated pupils in such a class and the possibility to integrate them into the class using suitable modern teaching methods (project-based learning, cooperative learning, collaborative teaching/learning). The method as well as the process and results of the research connected with this problem at elementary school are described in this paper. The aim of the research was to answer the question: Can the project-based learning help isolated pupils integrate into the class? Using sociograms and the Wilcoxon statistic test of significance, the hypothesis was accepted that the number of isolates after the project-based learning is statistically significantly lower than that of the case of using the classical frontal teaching.
