SUMMARY In today‘s society more and more people come into contact with huge amount of information and need to memorize it. So work with information, ability to memorize it, becomes serious problem. In order to minimize these problems we need to invent effective methods to work with information and using them teach students and employees. The purpose of this study is to compare traditional and non- traditional learning method for process of memorizing and restoring knowledge. Paticipants of this study: Vilnius University Philosophy faculty, social work second year students: 9-males and 48 females, between age 19 to 23, duration of learning 14 to 16 years. Participants were divided into control and experiment groups. Experiment group was tought according to modern T. Buzan method of processing information using mind mapping methodics. Efficiency of the method was tested by comparing achievied knowledge of both groups. Collected data revealed that results of achieved knowledge of groups were significantly different during first and second testing ( p ≤ 0,05) cases. These results did not confirm presumption that inovative learning method guarantees better learning results. It was also established that control and experiment groups showed better learning results during first testing ( p ≤ 0,05). Collected data confirms other authors asumptions that after some time, part of information is forgoten. It was established staticly important possitive connection between results of last semester learning and conduction of the first test (r = 0,613, p < 0,01). Data reveals that students had achieved different learning techniqs which they use in different learning circumstances. |
