Proactive and reactive dimensions of life-course agency: mapping student teachers’ language learning experiences
2014
Although the concept of agency has received a lot of interest in recent educational research, its significance in language learning biographies as well as contextual and relational aspects of learner agency are still little studied. This paper aims at a more thorough understanding of agency by studying student teachers’ previous language learning experiences. This paper is based on a dialogical analysis of 12 student teachers’ biographical essays describing their relationship with English as a foreign language. The participants are students in a Finnish class teacher and language teacher education programme that uses English as the primary medium of instruction. The study proposes a tripart…
Conclusions: Cultural Literacy in Action
2021
AbstractIn this chapter, the authors emphasize how even very young children can deal with complex and abstract ideas and emotions through creative practices and how the differences between people are not an issue for children. The analysis indicates that children have a multifaceted capacity for empathy. The authors stress that image-making is an important mode of communication through which children and young people shape their understanding of the world. This is a constructive and dialogic process of thinking in action. It allows children and young people to develop their imagination, emotional responses, personality, and position in the community, in relationship with others, and with th…
Data analysis method for evaluating dialogic learning
2001
Abstract The purpose of this paper is to introduce a new method of analysing and evaluating dialogic learning. Dialogic learning offers possibilities that have not previously been found in nursing or nursing education, although some nursing researchers have lately become interested in dialogic nursing interaction between nurses and patients. The stages of analysis of dialogic learning have been illustrated by using an example. The data for this illustration were collected by video-taping a planning process where students for a Master’s degree (qualifying them to be nursing instructors in Finland) plan, implement and evaluate a course for nursing students, on the care of terminally ill patie…
Unions and industrial improvement projects: Building a common momentum
2018
The purpose of this article is to define the potential role unions can play in a general quest for improved practice in an industrial company. Workplace innovation (WPI) is one example of such a measure. Lean is another. The article outlines important elements when implementing improvement tools like Workplace Innovation and Lean practice. The efforts are focused at company level, and experiences from a Norwegian industrial company highlight the areas of importance. The amplifying role a union can play in an improvement process is discussed, and motives and processes are clarified, in order to show the role of unions in a broader sense. The “Nordic” tradition of organising work-life frames …
Vuorovaikutus osana opettajan arviointiosaamista (VOPA) -toimintamallin vaiheittaiset kuvaukset
2021
Vuorovaikutus osana opettajan arviointiosaamista (VOPA) -toimintamallin vaiheittaiset kuvaukset edesauttavat opetustilanteisiin liittyvän vuorovaikutuksen systemaattista havainnointia ja reflektointia sekä tarjoavat yhteistä sanastoa teeman käsittelyyn. Tarkastelemalla ryhmän vuorovaikutusta eri vaiheiden kautta, tuetaan ajatusta opettajan vuorovaikutusosaamisen kehittyvästä luonteesta. Opettajaopiskelijat ja opettajat voivat hyödyntää vaiheittaisia kuvauksia oman opetuksensa suunnittelussa, toteutuksessa ja reflektoinnissa. Opettajankouluttajat voivat hyödyntää vaiheittaisia kuvauksia opiskelijoiden opetusharjoittelun tutkimusperustaisessa havainnoinnissa ja ohjaamisessa. Learning interact…
Der hermeneutische Akt des Übersetzens. Schleiermacher und die Literaturverfilmung
2015
Friedrich Schleiermacher’s notion of translation can be applied productively to the dialogical relationship of literature and film. Whilst a literary translator translates the original text into the target language, thus stepping back behind the original, this process is entirely different in the case of literary adaptation. Here it is the director who takes the author’s place, ostensibly causing the original text to disappear. Furthermore, the translation of a literary text into the language of cinema is an interpretative engagement with, and an attempt to better understand, the original work. In contrast with translation in a stricter sense, which has by its nature a duty to uphold and to…
Myślenie dialogiczne. W polu gry o prawdę etyczną
2019
Przedmiotem analiz artykułu jest pojęcie myślenia dialogicznego. Jest ono różne od pojęcia dialogu–literackiej figury, która służy do przekazywania poglądów filozoficznych. Myślenie dialogiczne, jako merytorycznie nowy sposób uprawiania filozofii, pojawia się dopiero w początkach XX w. Zrodziło się ono jako sprzeciw wobec redukcyjnych metod nauk przyrodniczych i przeniesienia ich w obszar myśli humanistycznej i antropologicznej. W ten sposób powstał nowy nurt filozoficzny – filozofia dialogu. Rozwijał się w duchu uwag krytycznych kierowanych pod adresem dotychczasowej tradycji filozofii zachodniej. W artykule przedstawione zostały konstytutywne cechy myślenia dialogicznego. Najpierw przepro…
Significant Moments in a Couple Therapy Session: Towards the Integration of Different Modalities of Analysis
2020
This chapter presents a couple therapy session from four different research perspectives: The verbal dialogue was analysed with the Dialogical Investigations of Happenings of Change method, the embodied reactions of each participant were analysed by examining the electrodermal activity of each participant, and nonverbal synchrony was observed between the participants. Stimulated Recall Interviews, conducted individually after the session, were used to gain insights on the participants’ thoughts and feelings concerning particular moments in the session. We wished to determine what could be learned from the embodied reactions of the participants in couple therapy, including whether the data o…
Towards practical reflexivity in online discussion groups
2017
This paper continues the discussion about student-driven, interactive learning activities in higher education. Using object-oriented activity theory, the article explores the relational aspects of reflexive practice as demonstrated in five online discussions groups to develop students’ conceptual understanding. The purpose of the research is to describe both the process of reflection during online interaction and how practical engagement with the discipline is supported through pedagogical guidance. The students wrote short texts on the practice of health promotion ethics and discussed their perspectives in relation to theory and research. The analysis proved the importance of structural de…
Community Relationships and the Practice of Public Relations in Higher Education
2007
In 2004 the Finnish Universities Act was amended to include a third strand as an essential part of research and teaching. This paper focuses on relationship building to explore whether this approach would be helpful in developing university–community relationships and educational public relations. By means of a dialogic community relations model the paper suggests that different forms of social interaction and communication strategies are needed in relationship‐building, maintenance and enhancement; but, when aiming at collaborative community relationships, priority should be given to the development of the two dialogic strategies.
