Survey Results
The survey was done in the Nocturnal Puerto Viejo High School to know the knowledge and use of technology the teachers have there.
To set you in the place it is necessary to mention a little bit about the background and Students situations according to the research the economical situation of the Students and the community in general is not good nor bad but most of the students work during the day to study at night so they must be “responsible”, however some of them are living and sent there by their parents which pay every thing but the family characteristics are not unknown for the teachers.
Talking about drug addiction in the high school, there can be seen people smoking in some places and also some romantic scenes in others. According to some other Students, some of the learners go to different places around the school to smoke and do different things. That is because the high school population is very big, there are a lot o Students and most of them are over 18 years old.
The knowledge of English Teachers about innovative technologies is good, they know about different strategies and they like to innovate, however they do not have a lot of technology or equipment to use in the institution.
Educators like to use TV to watch movies and documental and if they have the opportunity they bring a CD player although the resources there are not enough.
Also, when they are given a class they try to include some community problems to help student be interested on the topic.
The assignments assigned have some objectives which are inclined to use technology and research about different topics, so Students have to go to different internet sites to look for results.
Teachers always tries to include creative activities but always thinking about the differences among students and when they find something difficult they try to look for new strategies and innovative activities using what they have available. Teachers say that they try to implement other subjects into their lessons but some times it become difficult; moreover, they look for resources in internet to solve that difficulties but they also use books.
In addition to motivate Students, teachers try to bring active activities and movies but in some occasions and with some Students it does not work because of Students attitude which tend to be lazy and irresponsible.
In Conclusion, the nocturnal high school difficulties are always present as in any other high school, and the need for technology and equipment too, however as we can see neither the students attitude nor the lack of equipment can stop Students learning process and what is necessary is to try to use our resources as much as we can do it.
May be, we have the opportunity to work in a beautiful institution with every technology available, but remember that things can change and we have to be aware of all that.
