Pozycja The Information Technology Use and Skills by Undergraduate Students: Case Study(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2018) Uziak, Jacek; Lorencowicz, Edmund; Koszel, Milan; Kocira, SławomirInformation Technology (IT) is a major part of modern society and is already well embedded in everyday life. IT is believed to be a perfect tool to enhance learning, also at tertiary level. However, it is uncertain whether students use the IT for educational purposes and if that usage is at higher than basic level. The aim of the study was to investigate the use of IT by engineering students and especially their use of technology in the learning process. The study proves that the students are surrounded by common type of IT, such as smartphones and computers, and use them almost constantly. However, its use is not directed towards learning process and especially towards learning engineering applications. The knowledge and skills of programming and specialized engineering software declared by students is astonishingly low for students of engineering faculty. It appears that students’ IT ownership, access, and some, although limited, competencies have not translated into use for educational purposes.Pozycja The relationship between health literacy levels and genital hygiene behaviors in female university students(Publishing Office of the University of Rzeszow, 2024-09) Sağlık, Cavide; Istek, Zekiye; Demirbaş, Ayşegül; Bozkurt, Feyza Demir; Gümüş, Ecem ÇiçekIntroduction and aim. This study investigates the correlation between health literacy levels and genital hygiene behaviors among female university students. Material and method. A descriptive-correlational study was conducted with 348 female students who voluntarily participated. Data were collected through an online survey comprising participant information forms, the Health Literacy Scale, and the Genital Hygiene Behaviors Scale. Statistical analyses, including descriptive statistics, chi-square test for categorical data, and correlation analyses, were performed using SPSS version 26.0. Results. The mean age of the participants was 21.92±2.51 years. The average scores on the Health Literacy Scale and Genital Hygiene Behaviors Scale were 106.0±17.9 and 86.73±10.13, respectively. Significant differences were observed in genital hygiene behavior scores concerning participants’ field of study and bathing habits. Furthermore, a moderately significant positive correlation was found between women’s health literacy scores and genital hygiene behavior scores. Conclusion. The study reveals a positive association between high health literacy levels and adequate genital hygiene behaviors among women. As women’s health literacy improves, their genital hygiene behaviors also enhance positively. Access to reliable health information resources is crucial to ensure accurate knowledge acquisition regarding genital hygiene practices.Pozycja The Use of Information Technology in Course Delivery and Students’ Cheating: Case Study(Wydawnictwo Uniwersytetu Rzeszowskiego, 2018) Uziak, Jacek; Lorencowicz, Edmund; Koszel, Milan; Kocira, SławomirInformation Technology (IT) entered the world of education with authority and with general assumption that it would enhance students’ learning. It is used in the educational environment for many uses, with class delivery as one of the most important purposes. The aim of the study was to investigate the preferences in the delivery methods by students and compare with those favoured by the instructors. Additionally, the study assessed the use of IT in preparation (by instructors) and access (by students) of material related to learning. A separate issue addressed was classroom cheating by students and IT application for that purpose. The study indicated a clear preference by both students and instructors for blended learning of traditional face to face lecturing with additional on-line material. The study also confirmed the use of IT as a tool for class cheating. Although reluctantly, up to 73% of students confessed to cheating using one or other method.
