Coherence Model of Instruction
Streszczenie
The article deals with three main issues: the understanding of curriculum in
context, the ability of contextualisation, and retention of knowledge in long-term
memory. The paper first suggests principles based on the coherence model of
instruction, which aims to achieve coherence of knowledge of isolated facts through
a network of semantic relationships. Then, the theoretical basis of the model is
described, including spatial learning strategies, cooperative learning, and excursions
in an authentic environment supported by mobile devices. A methodology
of teaching was designed according to the principles of the coherence model, and
a virtual guide through educational exhibitions was developed. The virtual guide
was tested with students of a primary school during an experimental lecture in
the Ostrava Zoo. An evaluation of the coherence model and the virtual guide was
carried out using three methods: an observation of students’ behaviour and learning
during the experimental lecture, a pedagogical experiment, and an evaluation of
questionnaires. The results of the evaluation proved that the coherence model
of instruction has a positive impact on understanding in context, ability of contextualisation,
and retention of the curriculum in long-term memory.
