In the article we seek to address questions regarding the interest of graduates of a degree course in Natural Sciences and Mathematics in relation to the teaching career in basic education. The course enables its graduates to work in the subjects Science and Mathematics in the final years of elementary school and Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry in high school. Our intention is to identify and reflect on the perceptions of these graduates about teaching, highlighting with this inherent aspects to the exercise of this profession in basic education. From the application of questionnaires to graduates of this course, we produced data regarding their performance in basic education, which enabled us to reflect on the national scenario in relation to the exercise of this profession. We could observe that the majority of the students participating in the research are not working in basic education and that the current scenario of devaluation of the teaching career exerts a significant influence in the decision making process of choosing or not the teacher profession for professional performance after graduation.

In the Australian education system, there are substantial class inequalities in educational outcomes and transitions. These inequalities persist despite increased choice and individual opportunity for young people. This article explores high school students’ experiences of class in a social context they largely believe to be a meritocracy. Specifically, it asks: how does class shape young people’s thinking and decision-making about their post-school futures? I use Bourdieu’s ‘habitus’ as a frame to understand the role of class in young people’s lives, stressing its generative and heterogeneous aspects. Drawing on qualitative-led mixed methods research, this article argues that young people have internalised the ‘doxa’ of meritocracy, agency and ambition, conceiving of themselves as individual agents in this context. However, risk and security, opportunities and constraints, are not distributed equally in a class-stratified society. Young people from working-class backgrounds more commonly imagine insecure, uncertain futures.

In this work, throughout the research which was organized in one high school in Bosnia and Herzegovina, it will be shown the influence of exercises on the final result in the e-learning environment at the final test done by students. The research was conducted from the subject informatics in the I, II and III grade. The type of the questions were of multiple choices, addition and accession. The aim was to see how much influence these online exercises have on the final outcome which is demonstrated through the final informatics test done by students and which is done in a classical way in classroom after the finished teaching materials that were planned according to high school rules. In the research, it was taken account of making all preconditions available for easy experiment conducting with regard to technical securing preconditions for students access to blended system of teaching. Concerning the recent experience, it is noticeable that youth like the use of IT and communication devices. In order to secure all necessary conditions, it was conducted the survey among students about having technical preconditions of online access to testing and about students knowledge of work principle in the Claroline LMS platform. The aim was to increase motivation of high school students with regard to the use of online materials, because in high schools of Bosnia and Herzegovina almost nothing is undertaken when it comes to the implementation of new IKT possibilities.
