School Detention in Finland : A Pilot Study
2017
Although detention is one of the most popular methods of punishment in schools, it is being met with increasing criticism as an educational intervention. Few studies have explored its use to date; therefore, the present pilot study was planned to survey the popularity of detention. By analyzing a representative sample of comprehensive school teachers (N = 2,276) in Finland at grade levels 1-9, it was found that 30% of Finnish school teachers regularly use this punishment. Differences in use were observed across gender, age, and teacher category. These results provide a baseline against which future follow-up studies can be compared. peerReviewed
Attitudes, Sentiments, and Concerns About Inclusive Education of Teachers and Teaching Students in Spain.
2020
The Sentiments, Attitudes, and Concerns About Inclusive Education Revised scale was developed to close the existing gap in measuring perceptions of inclusive education in the educative context. It has been widely used in other cultures but not in Spain. Our objective has been to analyze the psychometric properties in the Spanish sample by studying their relationship with empathy and social dominance variables, finally taking into account sociodemographic variables to observe if there are differences. The scale was applied to a total of 647 subjects: 323 university-students (18–45 years) and 324 in-service teachers (35–58 years). The scale showed psychometric properties suitable for the gene…

Este documento presenta la experiencia de aprendizaje servicio (ApS) realizada durante el curso 2013-14 en el Grado de Maestro/a de Educación Infantil en la Universitat Jaume I (Castellón, España). En ella el alumnado universitario debía planificar y realizar sesiones de juegos motrices y de expresión corporal para niños y niñas con diversidad funcional. Nuestro objetivo se centró en comprobar el impacto de la aplicación del programa de ApS sobre el alumnado universitario, tanto a nivel académico como personal. Para ello se elaboraron y validaron dos instrumentos de medición cuantitativa, una rúbrica y un cuestionario. Al mismo tiempo, el trabajo se complementó con una investigación cualita…
Exploring responsive mathematics teaching
2018
Responsive mathematics teaching places students’ ideas and scientific thinking in a central position. It is based upon the expectation that students have resourceful scientific thinking. The responsive teacher advances the acquisition of mathematical knowledge by pursuing the substance of students’ ideas and fostering the practices of the mathematical community. This study focuses on illustrating the responsive mathematics teaching accounts of a second graders teacher. To fulfil this aim, the teaching structure of one teacher has been thoroughly scrutinized and presented in detail. The data, collected through a semi structured interview, classroom observation and field notes, has been analy…
Tipologie di ricerca didattica in Italia (2016-2018)
2020
In Italia, nel triennio 2016-2018, si è fatta ricerca didattica sul processo di insegnamento- apprendimento in tre modi: l’analisi fenomenologica e l’osservazione della dimensione quantitativa della realtà educativa; la costruzione di categorie interpretative del collegamento delle azioni dei docenti con i cambiamenti osservati nei discenti; la formulazione di principi e orientamenti per la pratica didattica. I temi delle ricerche didattiche svolte nel periodo sono raggruppabili in quattordici aree: la didattica universitaria, la didattica inclusiva, la didattica interculturale, la didattica orientativa, la didattica metacognitiva, la raccolta e l’analisi di pratiche didattiche, le nuove te…
Development of a Brief Multicultural Version of the Test of Mobile Phone Dependence (TMDbrief) Questionnaire
2016
The Test of Mobile Phone Dependence (TMD) questionnaire (Chóliz, 2012) evaluates the main features of mobile phone dependence: tolerance, abstinence syndrome, impaired impulse control, associated problems, excessive use, etc. Objective: The objective of this study was to develop a multicultural version of the TMD (TMDbrief) adapted to suit the novel communication tools of smartphones. Procedure: In this study, the TMD was completed by 2,028 young respondents in six distinct world regions: Southern Europe, Northwest Europe, South-America, Mesoamerica, Pakistan, and India. Results: Psychometric analysis of the reliability of the instrument and factor analysis were performed to adapt the TMDbr…
Are quality management practices enough to improve process innovation?
2015
The popularity of quality management as a system for continuous improvement has not been accompanied by deep theoretical understanding of its effects on process innovation. In this work, the resource-based view serves as the basis for the construction of a model designed to explain the effects of quality management practices (QMP) on process innovation performance and the mediating role of dynamic capabilities in this relationship. The empirical data were analysed using the structural equation modelling technique by examining 6 competing models that represent full, partial mediation and non-mediation relationships on a sample of 550 Spanish industrial companies. The findings indicate that t…
