Towards Natural Engagement in Nonexhibitional Dramatic Role-Plays
2003
Modern language teaching and drama have long had a tenuous relationship. Foreign/second language teaching (F/SLT) and Language for Specific Purposes (LSP) instruction often mistakenly associate drama with learning games and role-play simulations. However, these remedial activities, though useful, offer only limited opportunities for natural speech interaction. This article argues that, as a natural dialogical process of cognitive and affective involvement, nonexhibitional dramatic role-play generates authentic meaning through action and personal commitment.

Suomalaisuuden ja toiseuden rajamailla : eksotisointi Gallen-Kallelan Museon Afrikka-kokoelman näyttelyhistoriassa
2020
Museoilla on ollut historiallisesti keskeinen rooli kansallisuuden ja kansallisen kuvaston tuottajina ja kulttuuriperinnön ylläpitäjinä. Osana kansallisen identiteetin rakentamisprojektia museot ovat osallistuneet myös eksotisoivan kuvaston ja toiseuden tuottamiseen ja toiminnallaan vahvistaneet kolonialistisia erontekoja. Tässä artikkelissa otamme erityiseen tarkasteluun Gallen-Kallela Museon Afrikka-kokoelman näyttelyhistorian ja pohdimme, miten museo on kokoelmaa esittäessään osallistunut kolonialistisen kuvaston tuottamiseen ja uudelleen tulkitsemiseen. Tutkimuksessa esiin nostamamme näyttelyt jakautuvat neljälle vuosikymmenelle (vuosille 1972, 1987, 1993, 2003). Aineistonamme on kirjal…

Hands-on math and art exhibition promoting science attitudes and promoting science attitudes

The current science, technology, engineering, art, math education (STEAM) approach emphasizes integration of abstract science and mathematical ideas for concrete solutions by art.The main aim was to find out how experience of learning mathematics differed between the contexts of school and an informal Math and Art Exhibition.

Several valid questionnaires and tests were applied (e.g., SRQ-A, RAVEN) in pre- and postdesign showing a good reliability.The results based on General Linear Modeling and Structural Equation Path Modeling underline the motivational effects. The experience of the effectiveness of hands-on learning at …
Communication et médiation par le toucherdans quelques expositions de sciences : Limites et contraintes dans l’expérience des visiteurs
2016
This communication deals with the “general public” of visitors to a number of interactive exhibits that accord a direct or indirect role to the sense of touch in knowledge mediation and interpretation. The role of touch is discussed in terms of its limitations and constraints in communication situations. The social mobilizations of touch are not immediately evident; what are the conditions under which visitors actually use touch in experiencing an exhibit? What connections with other signifiers are the most conducive to reception? This qualitative research relies on observation and interviews. Apprehension of interactive objects appears to be dependent on the surrounding setting of sociabil…
