2017
The aim of this study is to find tools for the instrument teacher to support the student's learning motivation. The research is set in the cultural region of Central Ostrobothnia. The research material consists of a survey conducted by means of a questionnaire, recorded video footage of lessons given by three violin teachers, and a total of eight interviews with these teachers and their students. The data was analyzed using both quantitative and qualitative methods. The study reveals that the most important motivation factor is the sense of relatedness of the pupil. The key factor is a close relationship between the pupil and the teacher, which allows the teacher to engage the pupil in the …
Motivational strategies as perceived and implemented by future L2 teachers : a comparison of two groups of Finnish university students
2012
Motivaatiotutkimus on vuosikymmeniä keskittynyt motivaatioon oppijan näkökulmasta luoden erilaisia motivaatioteorioita. Motivaatio on erittäin tärkeä tekijä vieraan kielen oppimistulosten selittäjänä, joten viime vuosikymmenellä kiinnostuttiin myös käytännön toimista, joita opettaja voi toteuttaa parantaakseen oppilaiden motivaatiota luokkahuoneissa. Näitä toimia kutsutaan motivointistrategioiksi. Tulevien vieraiden kielten opettajien käsitykset ja kokemukset motivointistrategioista Suomessa olivat lähes tutkimaton aihe, joten kyseinen näkökulma otettiin tähän tutkimukseen. Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli määrällisten menetelmien avulla saada käsitys tulevien opettajien yleisestä tietoisuudes…
ICT in education : EFL teacher trainees' views of the affordances of ICT use in education and the need for ICT training in teacher education programm…
2014
Tieto- ja viestintäteknologia (TVT) on tärkeä osa ihmisten jokapäiväistä elämää ja toimintoja. TVT:n yleistyminen yhteiskunnan jokaisella osa-alueella alleviivaa myös uusien digitaalisten kompetenssien tärkeyttä kaikissa ikäluokissa. Aikaisemmassa tutkimuksessa on keskitytty mm. opettajien ja oppilaiden taitoihin ja tapoihin hyödyntää TVT:aa opetuksessa ja oppimisessa, mutta vastaavia kysymyksiä opettajaopiskelijoiden näkökulmasta on esitetty häviävän vähän. On tärkeää huomioida, että kuten kriittisen ajattelun taidot, myös TVT:n laaja-alainen osaaminen on pitkän aikajakson kuluessa kehittyvä taito. Jotta tulevan opettajasukupolven TVT-taitoja voitaisiin tutkia ja selvittää oleellisia taust…

Languages as objects of learning: language learning as a case of multilingualism
2011
This paper considers multilingualism from the point of view of language learning and teaching. We discuss the ‘monological’ thinking in linguistics and in the research of language learning and teaching and argue that the monological stand, more often than not, also embeds a monolingual bias. As an alternative to monologism, we discuss dialogical notion of language and argue that this inherently involves a multilingual stand. peerReviewed
Factors Influencing Teachers’ Use of ICT in Class: Evidence from a Multilevel Logistic Model
2022
Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) have become a key factor in the educational context, especially in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, and, correctly implemented, can help to improve academic performance. The aim of this research was to analyse the factors that influence teachers’ decisions to use ICT more- or less frequently to carry out tasks and exercises in their classes. To this end, we estimated a multilevel logistic model with census data from the individualized evaluation of students of the Community of Madrid (Spain) carried out at the end of the 2018–2019 academic year in primary and secondary education. Additionally, we applied multiple imputation techniques…

Il reciprocal teaching nella formazione iniziale degli insegnanti di sostegno della scuola secondaria di primo e secondo grado
2022
Attraverso il presente contributo si vuole verificare se nell’ambito del percorso di Specializzazione per le attività di sostegno per la Scuola secondaria di primo e secondo grado dell’Università degli Studi di Palermo, un approccio sistematico basato sul Reciprocal Teaching, con 1203 futuri insegnanti di sostegno di scuola secondaria di primo e secondo grado e materiali didattici appositamente predisposti, possa favorire il miglioramento della comprensione attraverso la capacità di sintesi e lo sviluppo di abilità metacognitive. Il Reciprocal Teaching, tra le varie strategie metacognitive è stata riconosciuta come la più solida dal punto di visto teorico e quella supportata da maggiori evi…
Becoming a Language Teacher: A dream come true or a source of anxiety?
2015
In this qualitative study the author examined personal narratives written by 14 Finnish speaking student teachers of Swedish, in order to find out what they tell about their thoughts and feelings concerning their future work as language teachers. The following three themes were in focus: firstly, what university students tell about their reasons for wanting to become teachers in the first place; secondly, what kinds of worries concerning their future work they mention in their narratives; and thirdly, how student teachers could be supported during transition from teacher education to teaching. According to the study, students choose teaching for reasons that are related to: (a) teacher iden…
