A new video-based tool to enhance teaching economics
2018
Abstract We present a new video-based tool developed in Germany to enhance the teaching of economics. The tool consists of authentic teacher-student interactions in economics classes to which instructors need to react. With 18 videos, the tool provides an easily accessible opportunity to assess and enhance teaching performance in economics. The tool was rated by 41 highly experienced secondary school economics teachers according to different criteria relevant for curriculum design and instructional practice, including authenticity of the simulated classroom situations, and typical difficulties and misconceptions students have in learning economics. The teachers confirm the curricular and in…
Students’ Redesign of Mandatory Assignments in Teacher Education
2017
This article explores specific aspects of literacy practices in teacher education in Norway, building upon data collected within the research project Digital literacy and use of learning resources in teacher education in Norway (DigiGLU). Our main aim is to explore how teachers in different subject courses in teacher education (TE) design mandatory assignments, and how students respond to these designs. After the extensive TE-reform in 2010, in revised plans and documents guiding professional training, mandatory assignments (both form and content) were considered more important for the students’ learning process. In our investigation, the concepts of design for learning and design in learni…
What Factors have an Influence on A Quality Teaching Practice in Sciences?
2012
Abstract This paper aims to know to what extent in-service teachers who have not participated in science teaching training courses neither have performed any research in this field develop a quality teaching practice and what factors have influenced to achieve it. Questionnaires and non-participating observation protocols about the classroom work have been used as well as semi-structured interviews with a sample of teachers to obtain data. These instruments try to characterize the teaching action and determine what factors and in which degrees have influenced the performance of a quality science teaching activity.
Student Performance Prediction Based on Blended Learning
2021
Contribution: This article explored blended learning by implementing a student-centered teaching method based on the flipped classroom and small private online course (SPOC). The impact of general online learning behavior on student performance was analyzed. This work is practical and provides enlightenment for learning analysis and individualized teaching in blended learning. Background: Providing individualized teaching in a large class is an effective way to improve teaching quality, but the traditional teaching method makes it difficult for teachers to learn about each student’s learning situation. Blended learning offers the possibility of individualized teaching for teachers. The comb…
Challenges for the Teacher's Role in Promoting Productive Knowledge Construction in Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning Contexts
2010
This chapter discusses challenges related to teachers’ pedagogical activities in facilitating productive discussions among students in Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL) contexts. In the light of two different cases from secondary-level and higher education contexts, the authors examine how teachers’ pedagogical choices influenced the quality of students’ activity, namely Web-based discussion. The results of our studies indicated that rich moments of collaboration were rare and distributed unequally among the students. The obvious weakness from the perspective of teachers’ pedagogical activities was that in neither of the studies was the students’ interaction in the discussion…
The Effects of Banning Smartphone Use During Lectures in High Schools : An explanatory case study
2021
Master's thesis in Information systems (IS501) Research context–During the last decade, smartphonehas become an integral part of our lives. It is undeniable that the smartphone has impacted almost every aspect of our lives, and education is no exception. Banning smartphone use is one of the measures that has been implemented in high school to manage excessive smartphone use among students. Developing an appropriate policy to manage smartphone use during lectures can be a difficult task, because it can have a positive impact on their attention and academic performance, while also having a negative impact on their behavior and mentality. Purpose-This study addresses the issue regarding smartp…
