Student participation in peer interaction
2021
This study explores how students deal with material resources in their peer interaction when working in pairs in an open-ended problem-solving task. The productive use of material resources can be expected to support successful peer work. However, research into social phenomena in peer interaction is needed in order to identify and describe productive and less productive forms of dealing with material resources as students participate in open-ended problem-solving tasks. Consequently, this explorative study responds to this research need. Based on multimodal data, including video recordings, transcribed talk and the written contributions from four pairs of Year 7 students aged 12-13 years, …

Development of Participation in and Identification With School: Associations With Truancy
2020
This longitudinal study covering two educational transitions examined 1,821 Finnish students’ participation in and identification with school and their associations with students’ academic achievement and truancy. The students were surveyed (a) at the end of primary school, (b) at the beginning of lower secondary school, (c) at the end of lower secondary school, and (d) in the first year of upper secondary education. In alignment with the participation-identification model, higher levels of participation in school activities at the end of primary school predicted higher levels of identification (i.e., feelings of belonging and valuing school) at the end of lower secondary school. This asso…
Vapauttava laulupedagogiikka : kriittinen toimintatutkimus oppilaslähtöistä laulunopetusmallia luomassa
2011
Vapauttava laulupedagogiikka on pro gradu -opinnäytetyö, jonka tavoitteena on määritellä laulupedagogista mallia yhdistelemällä oppilaslähtöisiä suuntauksia, kuten psykofyysistä musiikkipedagogiikkaa, Paulo Freiren kriittistä vapautuksen pedagogiikkaa, Eira Korpisen kokonaisvaltaista koulukasvatusmallia, sekä tutkivan opettajan ja oppilaan kokemuksia. Tutkimus on luonteeltaan narratiivinen. Johtopäätöksiä ja tutkimustuloksia ei pidä tulkita yleiseksi totuudeksi, vaan tutkijan subjektiiviseksi näkemykseksi. Lauluopettajien koulutuksessa ei anneta kovin paljon tietoa psykologisten seikkojen vaikutuksesta laulutekniikkaan ja opettamiseen. Tutkielma pyrkii tuottamaan tietoa näistä ilmiöistä esi…

Principal self-efficacy and school climate as antecedents of collective teacher efficacy
2023
The importance of collective teacher efficacy (CTE) has been increasingly emphasised, but few studies have focused on how it can be enhanced. Since CTE is assumed to be related to factors that differ between schools, the belief-shaping sources of CTE could be related to principals’ beliefs of their efficacy. Moreover, a school climate that centralises teachers’ attempts to improve student learning could enhance CTE. This paper examines a proposed analytical model that links principal self-efficacy (PSE) to CTE, as mediated by the school climate. The model is tested via a multilevel analysis with data from 70 Finnish schools and 767 educators. The analysis revealed that PSE is partially and …
Co-designing a pedagogical framework and principles for a hybrid STEM learning environment design
2022
AbstractThe importance of engaging and effective learning environments for science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) has been internationally recognised. However, no comprehensive pedagogical frameworks exist that support STEM learning environment design. In this study, a pedagogical framework and principles for STEM learning environment design were created based on participatory focus groups involving 10–18-year-old students, teachers, school directors, parents, university students and STEM professionals. Representatives of key stakeholder groups in Belarus, Finland, Germany, Greece and Spain (total n = 132) were invited to focus group discussions in which their wishes relate…

Optimal Spectral Wavelengths for Discriminating Orchard Species Using Multivariate Statistical Techniques
2019
Sustainable management of orchard fields requires detailed information about the tree types, which is a main component of precision agriculture programs. To this end, hyperspectral imagery can play a major role in orchard tree species mapping. Efficient use of hyperspectral data in combination with field measurements requires the development of optimized band selection strategies to separate tree species. In this study, field spectroscopy (350 to 2500 nm) was performed through scanning 165 spectral leaf samples of dominant orchard tree species (almond, walnut, and grape) in Chaharmahal va Bakhtiyari province, Iran. Two multivariable methods were employed to identify the optimum wavelengths:…
Optometrista kabineta parametru atbilstība redzes novērtēšanas prasībām
2019
Darbs ir uzrakstīts latviešu valodā uz 26 lapaspusēm. Tas satur 16 attēlus, 4 tabulas, 1 pielikums un 23 atsauces uz literatūras avotiem. Darba mērķis bija izvērtēt optometrista kabineta parametru atbilstību redzes novērtēšanas prasībām. Tika izanalizēti 17 optometristu kabineti. Rezultāti demonstrēja, ka optometristu kabinetu izmēri ir 7,26-18,49 m2. Attālums no pacienta krēsla atzveltnes līdz optotipu demonstrēšanas ekrānam ir 3,19-5,07 m. Ja krēslā pacients sēž ar taisnu muguru, attālums līdz ekrānam samazinās, dažos gadījumos attālumam kļūstot mazākam par 3 m. Nenovēro statistiski nozīmīgu atšķirību pārrēķinātajam un teorētiskajam redzes asumam. Pacientam pieliecoties tuvāk, redzes asum…
