¿Qué resultados de aprendizaje alcanzan los futuros maestros de Infantil cuando planifican unidades didácticas de ciencias?
2017
En este trabajo se analizan los resultados de aprendizaje respecto a las ciencias, que alcanzan los futuros maestros y maestras de educación infantil cuando preparan unidades didácticas. Para ello, se ha construido un instrumento de análisis a partir de los resultados de aprendizaje que cabría esperar teniendo en cuenta las competencias que, para nuestra área de conocimiento, aparecen en la memoria de título de Grado de Maestro/a en Educación Infantil de la Universidad de Valencia. Tres investigadores independientes, haciendo uso de dicho instrumento, han analizado 19 unidades didácticas elaboradas por 76 alumnos del 4º curso durante dos cursos académicos consecutivos, cuando cursan la mate…
Il Transformative Learning nei futuri insegnanti di sostegno: un’indagine in laboratorio
2022
Il presente lavoro illustra gli esiti di un’indagine condotta con 2193 corsisti frequentanti i laboratori del VI ciclo del corso di specializzazione per le attività di sostegno didattico dell’Università degli Studi di Palermo svoltosi nell’A.A. 2021/2022. La finalità dell’indagine è stata quella di rilevare il grado di consapevolezza dei taciti assunti e delle aspettative, nonché di quelle degli altri e valutarne la rilevanza a fini interpretativi, dei futuri docenti di sostegno, nel processo laboratoriale che li ha coinvolti per 180 ore. La cornice teorica all’interno della quale si delinea l’indagine è quella del Transformative Learning (Mezirow, 2013), che riteniamo fondamentale per la c…
An idiom a day keeps the doctor away : Finnish upper secondary school English teachers' attitudes towards teaching idioms
2009
Idiomit ilmaisevat kulttuurille ominaisia ajatuksia ja siten niiden hallitseminen on tärkeä osa kielitaidon kehitystä. Viime vuosina idiomien oppimista ja opettamista onkin tutkittu melko laajasti. Tutkimuksissa on kuitenkin havaittu, että idiomien tärkeästä roolista huolimatta niiden suora opettaminen voi johtaa tilanteeseen, jossa oppilaat käyttävät niitä väärin, koska ovat erehtyneet pitämään idiomeja yleisempinä kuin ne ovat. Yksikään tutkimus ei kuitenkaan ole keskittynyt siihen, miten ja miksi opettajat käsittelevät idiomeja, minkä takia ei loppujen lopuksi tiedetä, kuinka suuri yllä kuvattu ongelma on. Tämä kandidaatin tutkielma syventyi selvittämään, mitä suomalaisen lukion englann…
Cleaning mums and brave policemen: gender representation and gender-inclusive language in EFL teaching materials in Lithuania
2019
Socialinės lyties kalbinės raiškos ir įvaizdžio kūrimo aspektai anglų kalbos (kaip svetimosios ar antrosios) vadovėliuose yra sulaukę nemažai tyrėjų dėmesio, tačiau lyties raiška Lietuvoje leistuose anglų kalbos vadovėliuose iki šiol analizuota sporadiškai (Brusokaitė, Verikaitė-Gaigalienė 2015), o tyrimų, skirtų ne vadovėliams, bet kitoms mokymo priemonėms, iki šiol beveik neatlikta. Šiame straipsnyje kiekybiniu (pasitelkiant tekstynų analizės įrankius) ir kokybiniu (remiantis turinio analize) būdu analizuojamos socialinės lyties vaizdavimo tendencijos keturiose – dviejose pratybų ir dviejose testų – anglų kalbos (kaip svetimosios) mokymo priemonėse, išleistose 2005–2017 m. Lietuvoje. Remi…
On a journey towards a writing habit : a material package for upper secondary school
2017
Tiivistelmä – Abstract Kirjoittaminen on yksi kielitaidon neljästä osa-alueesta puhumisen, kuuntelun ja lukemisen lisäksi. Se on myös osa-alue, jossa monilla oppilailla ilmenee vaikeuksia. Kirjoittamisen opetuksessa on pitkään keskitytty sen tuotokseen, valmiiseen tekstiin, eikä siihen, mitä tapahtuu tyhjän paperin ja viimeistellyn lopputuloksen välissä. Tämän materiaalipaketin tarkoitus on kiinnittää huomio siihen, kuinka oppilasta voidaan tukea kirjoitusprosessin aikana ja kuinka kirjoittamistaitoa voidaan kehittää harjoittamalla kirjoittamisen eri vaiheisiin liitettäviä taitoja. Materiaalipaketissa noudatetaan prosessikirjoittamisen ideaa, jossa itse kirjoittamista edeltää huolellinen va…
THE GEOMETRY THROUGH THE BODY: DOING, ACTING, THINKING
2016
The geometry has been for more than two millennia one of the most important fields of knowledge of mathematics, identifying with it for a long time. In education, the relationship between the geometry and the physical world has always been considered one of the main elements for the acquisition of specific skills and competences. In the teaching-learning processes the thinking and the interconnection between doing, acting, thinking is therefore crucial. Teaching through the body may prove effective for teaching mathematics which, very often, is hard to be learned because of difficulties that the child encounters in assimilating mathematical symbolism and, after, applying it to real life and…
MANIPULATION OF OBJECTS AS INTEGRATION ACTIVITY
2016
The visual disability assumes, in the processes of teaching and learning, a particular connotation for the specificity that over the years the vision in the overall structure of knowledge has had. The whole western tradition on the knowledge stood on a "oculocentric" vision of knowledge. The view has always been considered the “sense for excellence". An educational activity, therefore, that emphasizes and promotes strategies of inclusion / integration of students with visual impairment is significant and essential to the whole class group. We present here an experimentation with primary school children: in a closed bag, there are objects of everyday life: every time a child extracts an obje…
Enseñanza de las ciencias : revista de investigación y experiencias didácticas
2021
This research focuses on teacher training in the Master's Degree in Secondary Educa- tion Teaching. The teaching guides of the specialisations of Biology and Geology and Physics and Che- mistry of the Master's Degree were analysed in order to know to what extent Education for Sustaina- bility (EfS) is present. Collaborative teams of teachers were arranged so as to promote the acquisition of competences in Sustainability among the training goals and to encourage resources and procedures for their effective achievement. This paper includes contributions that try to promote attention to EfS in Secondary School teacher training. Esta investigación se enmarca en la formación del profesorado en e…
Factors Constraining Teachers’ Wellbeing and Agency in a Finnish University : Lessons from the COVID-19 Pandemic
2022
The COVID-19 pandemic forced teachers to undergo a sudden shift toward technology-enhanced teaching and learning, challenging their capacities for change in many ways. This study explores those factors constraining teachers’ wellbeing and agency that influenced their capacities as teachers in a Finnish university during the first year of the pandemic. Two sets of data were collected, with an online survey in the spring (n = 297) and autumn (n = 246) of 2020. At both times, challenges with workload, time management, and interactions with colleagues were found to be the most constraining factors. Difficulties with work–life balance and home office facilities seemed more of an issue in the spr…
What is important in history teaching? Student class teachers’ conceptions
2020
In Finland, history is taught in comprehensive schools at both primary and secondary levels. In primary schools, teachers are qualified class teachers who study one or two history courses during their teacher education. The amount of history taught in teacher education is limited, but student class teachers have studied history while at comprehensive school and general upper secondary school, and they have lived experience of historical cultures as members of different groups and communities. Thus, they have conceptions of what history teaching in school is, and what it should be. In this article, student class teachers’ conceptions of teaching history were examined using data (n=92) consi…
