Digital technologies in teaching and learning of photosynthesis from the teachers' and students' point of view

This contribution focus on opinions of Czech upper secondary school biology teachers and students on the use of digital technologies for learning photosynthesis. From teachers' point of view the problems in teaching photosynthesis are too much chemistry, invisibility and abstractness and low student interest in plants. They would appreciate to use digital learning tools on photosynthesis including educational videos, learning schemes, real world examples, animations, field experiments and interactive workbooks. Students would prefer to learn photosynthesis via real world examples, field or laboratory experiments using digital technologies and also educational video. They do not like to learn photosynthesis via frontal transmissive education or quiz.
