Exploring coherence and authorship in pedagogical link-making in science
2021
Despite rapid changes in education, science classrooms will remain central forums where fragmented pieces of information are brought together to construct coherent knowledge as concepts and explanatory scientific storylines. There is limited work stressing the importance of the interplay between how content is communicated through pedagogical link-making and the use of communicative approaches. Even less research addresses the role of coherence in this process. In this study, through exploring three cases of teachers teaching the same topic, we will bring forth differences on how links between past and to be learned scientific knowledge are made. We look at how authorship – whether teacher …

Beyond error correction in EFL writing in a Finnish upper secondary classroom : a practical approach
2023
In Finland, teachers have considerable autonomy over their assessment practices. Recent studies suggest that FL/L2 teachers, particularly at the upper secondary school, primarily focus on summative assessment rather than on formative assessment and feedback, which is in contrast with the latest Finnish National Core Curricula. Furthermore, while appreciating teacher feedback, learners do not perceive it as an integral part of assessment. In this paper, we propose formative classroom practices to support the learning process and go beyond error correction in FL/L2 writing. These practices are grounded on our earlier research, and they focus mainly on two themes: fostering learner choice in f…
Coping Strategies against peer victimization: differences according to gender, grade, victimization status and perceived classroom social climate
2021
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) include “Good Health and Well-being” (SDG3) and “Quality Education” (SDG4). Nevertheless, many students cannot achieve these goals if they suffer peer victimization at their schools, and intervention programs to reduce it are necessary. These programs should consider the possible differences in the coping strategies preferred by students according to some personal (e.g., gender, grade, victimization status) and contextual (e.g., perceived classroom social climate) factors to be more effective. Therefore, the objective of this study was to analyze the possible differences in the coping strategies preferred by students (ask a friend for help, ask a tea…
Language choice in EFL teaching : student teachers' perceptions
2012
Vieraan kielen opettaja tekee luokkahuoneessa jatkuvasti valintoja luokkahuonekielen suhteen, olivatpa nuo valinnat sitten tietoisia tai tiedostamattomia. Opettaja voi puhua joko kohdekieltä tai oppilaiden äidinkieltä niissä eri vuorovaikutustilanteissa, joita hän oppitunnilla kohtaa. Kielenvalinta vieraan kielen opetuksessa on synnyttänyt paljon keskustelua asiantuntijoiden keskuudessa. Onkin syntynyt kaksi eri ajattelukuntaa: toiset puhuvat äidinkielen käytön puolesta, kun taas toiset kannattavat eksklusiivista kohdekielen käyttöä. Tämä tutkimus keskittyi englannin opetusharjoittelijoiden näkemyksiin äidinkielen ja kohdekielen käytöstä ja siihen, miten he tulkitsevat omia kielivalintojaan…

Foreign language anxiety : the case of young learners of English in Swedish primary classrooms
2019
Although foreign language anxiety is a widely studied construct assumed to develop from negative experiences of language instruction, few researchers have focused on young learners in this regard. This multiple case study investigates levels and triggers of language anxiety in Swedish primary classrooms under rather favorable learning conditions with a supportive, non-competitive atmosphere, and without formal knowledge requirements or grades. A total of 225 learners, aged 8–12, studying English as their first foreign language completed a self-report questionnaire, a modified version of the Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety Scale (Horwitz, Horwitz, & Cope, 1986), eliciting learners’ reacti…
The importance of the analysis of the environment in the classroom to improve the educational inclusion
2015
El presente articulo defiende la importancia de analizar el clima de las aulas como primer paso para la mejora de los procesos de inclusión educativa. Concretamente se analiza el rechazo entre iguales en un aula. Inicialmente se describen los términos en los que se conocen los conceptos de rechazo-inclusión. Posteriormente se explica el diseño y los resultados de una intervención concreta en un aula de primaria. El análisis que se plantea muestra cómo además de cumplirse la hipótesis de un niño con problemas de inclusión en el aula, emergió un caso que hasta el momento no había sido detectado por la profesora. Por último, atendiendo a los resultados obtenidos, se concluye que es necesario r…
Innovación en la gestión educativa: un estudio empírico
2021
ABSTRACT This paper analyzes the impact of innovative education tools-in this case, based on experimental methodology-on the acquisition of theoretical knowledge among management students. The study incorporates a clear split-sample design using two equivalent, randomly created groups. One group participates in a classroom experiment designed to illustrate the concept of the Phillips Curve, while the other participated in a traditional non-experimental lesson. The experiment is implemented under a strict protocol, while results evaluation is based on the comparison of post-experiment academic performance, which guarantees full anonymity and privacy of decisions. This design analyzes the imp…
