The Supremacy of the Constructivist Approach in the Field of Physics Education: Myths and Real Challenges
2012
We intend, first of all, to show that the supposed 'supremacy of the constructivist epistemology' in the field of physics teaching is just a myth that hides the actual supremacy of the ineffective transmission/reception model. We then centre our analyses and proposals on the real challenges to improve students' learning and attitudes. Résumé Nous essayons de montrer que la prétendue « suprématie de l'épistémologie constructiviste » dans le domaine de la didactique de la physique n'est qu'un mythe, qui cache la suprématie effective du modèle inefficace de la transmission/réception. Nous centrons ensuite nos analyses et propositions sur les défis réels pour améliorer l'apprentissage et les at…
Metodi digitali per l'insegnamento classico e umanistico

Una serie di proposte didattiche accompagna la…

Grammar teaching methods in EFL lessons : factors to consider when making instructional decisions
2016
Kielioppi on vakiinnuttanut asemansa kielen opettamisessa ja oppimisessa ja se on tärkeässä osassa vieraiden kielten opetussuunnitelmaa. Sanotaan, että erilaisia opetusmenetelmiä on yhtä monta kuin on opettajiakin, joten metodien kirjo on todella laaja. Opettajat ovat itse vastuussa siitä, miten kielioppia opettavat, joten he tekevät sen parhaaksi katsomallaan tavalla. Kielten opetusmenetelmiä on tutkittu paljon, mutta vähemmän tutkimuksia on tehty siitä, millä perusteella opettajat opetusmenetelmänsä valitsevat. Tämä tutkielma toteutettiin kuvailevana tapaustutkimuksena, johon osallistui kolme suomalaista englannin kielen opettajaa kolmelta eri koulutasolta. Aineisto kerättiin observoimall…
"If I don’t enjoy it, how are my kids going to enjoy it?" : case study in English grammar teaching
2015
The question over how grammar should be taught has been discussed amongst s everal linguistics scholars. Different grammar teaching methods present different focus on the target language, grammar and learner’s role. All of the methods have their strengths and weaknesses and in order to know which method to pick, one must know all the strengths and weaknesses of these methods. In this case study, a teacher from Central Finland was interviewed on her grammar teaching methods and the reasons behind these methods for fifth-graders. Factors influencing her selection of methods were the grammatical topic to be taught, learners’ different learning styles, relevance of the topic and the most natura…
Grammar teaching methods in an EFL lesson
2013
Kieliopilla on keskeinen asema englantia vieraana kielenä opiskeltaessa ja rakenteiden tuntemus on osa vieraiden kielten opetussuunnitelmaa. Menetelmät, joilla kielioppia opetetaan, ovat laajalti opettajien itse päätettävissä ja opetusmenetelmien kirjo on valtava. Opetus voi olla hyvinkin opettajakeskeistä ja tyyliltään luennoivaa tai puolestaan hyvin toiminnallista ja oppilaslähtöistä sekä kaikkea tältä väliltä. Tämä tutkielma toteutettiin kuvailevana tapaustutkimuksena, johon osallistui yksi englantia vieraana kielenä opettava alakoulun opettaja sekä hänen oppitunnillaan olleet 14 oppilasta. Tutkielman aihe oli kieliopin opetusmenetelmät, joten huomio keskittyi opettajaan, ei oppilaisiin.…
A phenomenological view of pictures in teaching and a novel method for analysing them
2014
In this paper a novel method for analysing the content and teaching potential of pictures is presented. It is the four-field method, which is based on phenomenological thoughts about human experience, which combines factual knowledge with emotions and personal and social meanings. A biological example is given. Around this idea a course unit for using pictures in science teaching was organized. It was used in the training of both primary and secondary level teachers. From picture analysis the course unit proceeds to planning the use of pictures in teaching. A classification of the teaching functions of pictures is presented.
Educación Geográfica y las salidas de campo como estrategia didáctica: un estudio comparativo desde el Geoforo Iberoamericano
2016
Las salidas de campo integran algunas de las principales estrategias didácticas y prácticas pedagógicas utilizadas por profesores de diferentes disciplinas escolares. En la Geografía, numerosas publicaciones académicas y experiencias de enseñanza han sido divulgadas en eventos científicos, artículos y libros. Haremos aquí un estudio de cómo las salidas de campo o visitas de estudio han sido abordadas en la educación geográfica en los países ibero-americanos, en especial en los estudios realizados en Brasil y España. El objeto que queremos abordar en este estudio tiene como núcleo básico el Foro 21, realizado en el Geoforo Iberoamericano, iniciado en febrero de 2015. En él se discutían las s…
Do videowikis on the web support better (constructivist) learning in the basics of information systems science?
2012
This paper describes the combination of a wiki and screen capture videos as a complementary addition to conventional lectures in an information management and information systems development course. Our basis was collaborative problem-based learning with the problems defined by students. The idea was that students were expected to find concepts or issues from four lecture themes which are not well-defined or clarified for them. The students worked in small groups of two or three students or they completed the coursework individually. First, the students selected the theme which was most unclear for them. Second, the students selected the problematic things from this area and created the pre…
Innovators and innovated: Newspapers and the postdigital future beyond the “death of print”
2017
Along with other cultural organizations, newspapers, through waves of digital disruption, have become subject to a dominant narrative of crisis. But newspapers have long participated in change. A constructivist approach, qualified by consideration of media materiality, draws attention to diverse but essential processes of innovation around them. We see a contraflow of migration from digital to print, opening up a shared media space; bonding strategies are bringing multimedia to ink on paper, while bridging via boundary objects such as QR (Quick Response) codes are connecting the two. Among other initiatives, development of automation of news production and experiments with transparency are …
