Finnish pre-service teachers’ perceptions of their strategic learning skills and collaboration dispositions
2019
To support the development of pupils’ 21st-century skills, teachers themselves must also be competent in these skills and learn them during pre-service teacher education. The aim of this study is to investigate what kind of profiles emerge among Finnish first-year pre-service teachers’ (N = 872) in terms of perceptions of their strategic learning skills and collaboration dispositions and what background variables explain membership of the profiles found. Latent profile analysis showed five student profiles corresponding to perceived strategic learning skills and collaboration dispositions. The most robust factor explaining the membership of the profiles was life satisfaction. Pre-service te…
Aprender a ser docentes con el cine de Miyazaki
2013
El presente artículo plantea la incorporación del cine como argumento válido para la formación del profesorado. Consideramos que el cine incluye suficientes mecanismos para involucrar la educación en artes visuales, la educación en medios, y la educación musical. Entre los directores más relevantes del panorama internacional, proponemos la figura de Hayao Miyazaki. Este creador japonés ha sabido atraer a públicos de todas las edades y culturas a lo largo de su dilatada carrera profesional. La calidad técnica de los trabajos de Miyazaki va acompañada de una serie de valores que resultan muy válidos para incorporar acciones educativas de respeto al medio natural y a las tradiciones culturales…
Psychological Burdens among Teachers in Germany during the SARS-CoV-2 Pandemic-Subgroup Analysis from a Nationwide Cross-Sectional Online Survey.
2022
Background: Schools underwent massive changes during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic worldwide. Besides existing occupational health challenges, teachers had to deal with biological and psychological burdens that had the potential to impact their psychological well-being. The aim of the present study was to (i) assess the current state of psychological burdens in German teachers and (ii) identify highly burdened subgroups to derive and address interventions. Methods: A nationwide cross-sectional online survey was conducted among teachers at all school types in Germany in March 2021. Data on psychological strains were assessed using established (e.g., PHQ-4) and new—pandemic-specific—(e.…
Mens sana in corpore exhausto. Emociones y gestión de sí en escuelas secundarias del sur global
2020
In recent years, emotional education has become a central element in a series of guidelines on a global scale that have been translated into various state initiatives aimed at education. Thus, Mens sana in corpore exhausto proposes to demonstrate the tension that is expressed between the growing series of discourses on emotional education and the school climate and the exhaustive bodies of teachers and directors of public secondary schools in the Metropolitan Region of Buenos Aires (RMBA). By way of hypothesis, these policies are considered to work on the bodies of teachers and directors, encouraging them to continue and not stop under the logic of management and self-management that throw …
La formación científica y didáctica en el grado de Maestro en Educación Primaria y la presencia de la indagación según el profesorado
2022
En este trabajo se analiza la formación científica y de didáctica de las ciencias experimentales que proponen los formadores de maestros y maestras de educación primaria, y si la metodología indagatoria está presente en dichas propuestas. Las respuestas de este profesorado en activo (n=77) del grado en Educación Primaria de veinte universidades españolas, recogidas mediante un cuestionario con cuatro preguntas abiertas, muestran, por un lado, que los contenidos científicos propuestos más frecuentes son los relacionados con los grandes bloques de la asignatura de Ciencias de la Naturaleza de Educación Primaria (Materia y Energía, Ser Humano y Salud y Seres Vivos). Por otro lado, entre los co…

En concreto, se analiza: a) cómo se define, qué características tiene y cómo se ha determinado en los profesores; b) su relación con el conocimiento de la materia a enseñar y con el aprendizaje de los estudiantes; c) cómo se ha utilizado en la formación y evaluación del profesorado; y d) en qué temas científicos se ha estudiado. Se concluye que el CDC se perfila como una herramienta fundamental para mejorar la calidad de la formación del profesorado. ABSTRACT This paper gives a de…
What is ‘good’ mentoring? Understanding mentoring practices of teacher induction through case studies of Finland and Australia
2015
Mentoring is a practice widely utilised to support new teachers. However, in locally formed systems, the practice of mentoring is conditioned by traditions and arrangements specific to the site. To understand ‘good’ mentoring, these local arrangements cannot be ignored. In this article, the theory of practice architectures is employed to make explicit the prefiguring arrangements of mentoring practices in Finland and NSW Australia. The findings suggest that mentoring practices are shaped by their ontological specificity and this makes reproducing mentoring practices in different sites problematic. Explicating the prefiguring architectures of practices is critical to understanding the contes…
Teacher orchestration of classroom interaction in science: exploring dialogic and authoritative passages in whole-class discussions
2019
Whereas science is fundamentally a result of a dialogic debate, the authoritative approach has been conceived of as a fundamental part of school science. Dialogic interactions encompass the mutual appreciation of different ideas manifested in teacher supportiveness toward students and, in authoritative interactions, the focus is more on the science’s or teacher’s point of view. Whereas dialogic and authoritative interactions have been viewed as oppositional in recent educational research, authoritative interactions could well be the seed for and give strength and meaning to dialogic interactions, and thus, to the overall dialogue. The focus in this study is on the interplay between authorit…
Las representaciones del saber académico: Aportaciones desde la Geografía Escolar
2019
When we talk with basic education´s teachers there is an impression in the case of learning Social Sciences, and Geography in particular that these sciences are not useful for the explanation of socio-environmental and daily problems. In this research, improvement proposals are sought so that students are motivated to learn about these problems. Based on two case studies such as flood risks (and their relationship with climate change) and the problems of the rural areas, the possibilities of combining motivation for learning close to personal emotions and with their own rigor have been explored of the conceptual explanation. To validate these results, quantitative and qualitative research t…

The way a foreign language (L2) learner perceives his or her educational environment may affect their processes of L2 acquisition. The aim of the study presented in this paper is to explore English as a foreign language (EFL) students’ perceptions of their teachers’ pronunciation, in-class and outside-class factors regarding pronunciation acquisition, such as pronunciation activities, recordings, focus on form, peer pronunciation, listening to music, to mention a few. A group of 89 participants responded to a survey, via which the data necessary to respond to the following three research questions was collected. How do EFL learners perceive their teachers’ pronunciation? What is the relatio…
