Monitorizarea curriculumului la disciplina științe în învățământul primar: între cerințele curriculare și experiențele elevilor [Articol]
(CEP USM, 2025) State, Daniela
This article examines the implementation of the Science curriculum in Moldovan primary education, based on monitoring registers from grades II–IV. Findings indicate a good alignment between the written and the taught curriculum: students show motivation and curiosity for topics connected to daily life, while teachers apply interactive methods, simple experiments, and interdisciplinary projects. At the same time, several challenges are evident: content overload and insufficient time for deeper exploration, limited resources for experiments and outdoor activities, difficulties in using scientific language at early ages, and the need for adaptations for students with special educational needs. Recommendations focus on ensuring continuity in competence development, strengthening practical and research-based activities, integrating ecological and social responsibility themes, diversifying assessment practices, allocating additional time for Science in grade IV, and developing digital resources for interactive learning. The study stresses the importance of balancing curricular ambitions with classroom realities and highlights monitoring as a tool for both quality assurance and teachers’ professional growth.
Formarea competențelor lingvistice în limba engleză la studenții mediciniști prin abordări interactive [Articol]
(CEP USM, 2025) Sîrghi, Angela
In the context of globalized medical education, communication competence and specialized terminology in English have become essential for medical students. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of integrating interactive teaching approaches and Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools in developing linguistic and professional (soft and hard) skills among first-year medical students at Nicolae Testemițanu State University of Medicine and Pharmacy. Conducted over 15 weeks, the quasi-experimental study involved 40 students enrolled in the English for Medical Purposes (EMP) course. The experimental group engaged in activities using digital tools such as ChatGPT, Kahoot!, Wordwall, Quizizz, Grammarly, and YouTube. Methods included vocabulary games, medical video analysis, gamified quizzes, writing exercises, and simulated dialogues with AI. AI tools offered personalized feedback and real-time support, while interactive methods increased engagement and reduced learning anxiety. Challenges included occasional technical issues and the need for continuous teacher supervision. The study concludes that combining AI with interactive strategies significantly improves both language proficiency and soft skills, offering a promising direction for future medical language education.
Incluziunea copiilor cu cerințe educaționale speciale în educația timpurie: dificultăți și direcții de intervenție practică [Articol]
(CEP USM, 2025) Rusu, Elena; Bragarenco, Tatiana
The integration of children with special educational needs (SEN) in kindergartens in the Republic of Moldova transcends the simple application of a pedagogical principle, becoming an expression of educational humanism and the right to equity. The study pursues an in-depth analysis of the systemic and cultural challenges that endanger authentic inclusion, from the scarcity of human and material resources, to persistent mental and institutional barriers. Through an applicative-reflective approach, the article proposes its own intervention model, developed from the perspective of the practitioner specialist, which integrates complex assessment, individualized planning, adaptation of the educational environment and continuous training of the actors involved. At the center of the approach is the child, seen as a unique subject of the educational process, and inclusion is redefined as an act of pedagogical co-creation. The results emphasize that the success of this process requires an alliance between educator, family and community, based on knowledge, empathy and ethical responsibility. Thus, inclusive early childhood education is no longer a simple legal obligation, but an expression of the social and professional maturity of the educational system.

First qualitative analysis methods are used to develop a draft national strategy for strengthening human resources in adult education in the Republic of Moldova for the period 2025-2030.
Parteneriatul școală-familie în contextul sarcinilor școlare: provocări și soluții pedagogice [Articol]
(CEP USM, 2025) Pascaru-Goncear, Valeria
The relationship between school and family represents a key component of educational success. However, the increasing academic pressure and misaligned homework expectations have generated tension between teachers and parents, often resulting in the replacement of students’ autonomy with parental involvement. This paper, grounded in psycho-pedagogical and educational counseling perspectives, explores the main challenges of school–family collaboration in managing homework and proposes practical pedagogical solutions for strengthening this partnership through dialogue, empathy, and balanced educational strategies.
