A Descriptive Case Analysis of Instructional Teaching Practices in Finnish Preschool Classrooms
2013

The cases were used to describe the qualitative variety of Finnish preschool teachers' instructional practices in authentic classroom situations among groups of 6-year-old children. The authors' previous study revealed four distinct latent profiles of teaching practices in preschool classrooms based on 49 observed preschool teachers, using t…
Changing society - changing language learning and teaching practices?
2012
Swift and unexpected changes have taken place in society over the past few decades: globalisation, increasing mobility, labour market changes and fast technological development have transformed society, making it multicultural, multilingual and multimodal. Education – and here above all language education – is at the centre of most societal activities and should be able to react to the changes quickly and flexibly. However, the changes in education are slow, and the views of the parties involved in the various levels of education as to the changes and their consequences do not always correspond. The purpose of this article is to outline the field of language education in the midst of the cu…
Revista electrónica de investigación y evaluación educativa
2014
El objetivo del presente trabajo consiste en identificar, hacer visibles, describir y explicar las prácticas de enseñanza que declaran realizar los “mejores profesores” de la Universidad de Vigo. Para ello, planteamos un diseño cualitativo a través de la técnica de la entrevista. Antes de hacer mención de las principales conclusiones hemos de hacer constar que nos interesaba buscar referencias de “buenas prácticas”, no hacer una evaluación de las prácticas docentes, buenas o malas, del profesorado de la Universidad de Vigo. La principal conclusión es que incluso entre los “mejores profesores” predominan unas prácticas docentes que podrían encuadrarse, mayoritariamente, en el enfoque “tradic…
La Philosophy for Children and Community come pratica didattica e sostegno educativo alla genitorialità

Analisi di pratiche didattiche ‘al maschile’ e ‘al femminile’ nel primo ciclo dell’istruzione
2017
Si è inteso verificare l’ipotesi che l’insuccesso scolastico nel primo ciclo dell’istruzione diminuisce quando gli insegnanti attuano una didattica più attenta al diverso modo di apprendere e di relazionarsi degli alunni e delle alunne. Si presentano i risultati dell’analisi di 44 pratiche didattiche che, come hanno dichiarato esplicitamente i docenti, intendevano rispondere ai bisogni differenziati degli alunni e delle alunne, seguendo i principi della didattica personalizzata. Sono presentati gli orientamenti metodologico-didattici ricorrenti nelle pratiche narrate dagli insegnanti siciliani coinvolti nella ricerca e sono forniti alcuni orientamenti per una didattica attenta alle differen…
De la nécessité d'évaluer les pratiques enseignantes : entre enjeux sociaux et obstacles méthodologiques
2003
This article takes a critical look at the assessment of teaching practices. Firstly, it reminds both principles and methodology whereby school is assessed ; secondly, it mentions social and political issues on which those researches have an effect. Unfortunately, teaching practices are not very much known in France, and so is their efficiency. As a result, significative improvements may be done to develop research on education in France.
L’inclusione vista dagli alunni: costruzione e validazione del questionario per rilevare la qualità inclusiva della scuola

Molti studi nazionali e internazionali si sono concentrati sulla valutazione e sulla promozione della qualità inclusiva della scuola. Si tratta di un argomento complesso, che ha stimolato un ampio dibattito e una varietà di contributi che mettono in luce la necessità di uno strumento in grado di misurare la qualità inclusiva delle nostre scuole, per determinare l’evidenza empirica riguardo a questo tema. L’articolo presenta i risultati di una sperimentazione finalizzata alla redazione di un questionario per la rilevazione della qualità inclusiva del sistema scolastico percepita dagli alunni.
