Mitä opin? Monilukutaitoa ja tutkivaa oppimista monialaisessa oppimiskokonaisuudessa
2019
Tarkastelemme tässä artikkelissa, mitä oppilaat, opettajat ja opettajaopiskelijat raportoivat oppineensa yhdessä toteuttamassaan monialaisessa oppimiskokonaisuudessa, johon osallistuivat erään yhtenäiskoulun kaikki 5.–8. luokan oppilaat. Oppimiskokonaisuuden aihe oli terve elämä ja sitä opiskeltiin viikon ajan ikäsekoitteisissa ryhmissä tutkivan oppimisen keinoin ja monilukutaitoa harjaannuttaen. Tutkimusaineisto koostuu 250 oppilaan, 25 opettajan ja 23 opettajaopiskelijan laadullisista itsearvioinneista, ja se analysoitiin laadullisen aineistolähtöisen teoriaohjaavan sisällönanalyysin keinoin. Tulosten mukaan oppilaat kertoivat oppineensa vuorovaikutustaitoja ja monimuotoisten tekstien tuo…
Students' abilities to evaluate the credibility of online texts: The role of internet‐specific epistemic justifications
2021
Previous evaluation studies have rarely used authentic online texts and investigated upper secondary school students' use of evaluation criteria and deep reasoning. The associations between internet-specific epistemic justifications for knowing and credibility evaluation of online texts are not yet fully understood among adolescents. This study investigated upper secondary school students' (N = 372) abilities to evaluate self-selected authentic online texts and the role of internet-specific epistemic justifications in students' evaluation performance when solving a health-related information problem. Students selected three texts with Google Custom Search Engine and evaluated their credibil…
Automatic content analysis in collaborative inquiry-based learning
2019
In the field of science education, content analysis is a popular way to analyse collaborative inquiry-based learning (CIBL) processes. However, content analysis is time-consuming when conducted by humans. In this paper, we introduce an automatic content analysis method to identify the different inquiry-based learning (IBL) phases from authentic student face-to-face discussions. We illustrate the potential of automatic content analysis by comparing the results of manual content analysis (conducted by humans) and automatic content analysis (conducted by computers). Both the manual and automatic content analyses were based on manual transcriptions of 11 groups’ CIBL processes. Two researchers …
Study of explicit instruction and structured inquiry methods on knowledge acquisition and conceptual change in science learning
2013
International audience; This study compares two pedagogical methods: explicit instruction and structured inquiry methods. We question the effectiveness of the two learning methods to acquire scientific knowledge and to modify learner conceptions. Do explicit instruction and structured inquiry methods have the same impact on the learning of science? If not, why?The results of this work show that explicit instruction and structured inquiry methods increase strongly acquisition of knowledge and improve weakness conception.So these two methods are same positive effects on acquisition of scientific knowledge but they are also the same negative results on evolution of conceptions because the conc…
Adolescents' perception of scientific inquiry in nature : a drawing analysis
2019
This study was carried out to determine adolescents’ perception of scientific inquiry (SI) in nature and the effect of a science camp on those perceptions. Eleven science campers (14 to 16 years old) participated in this research during a science camp. Pre- and post-test included open questions and drawing tasks. The campers’ drawings were analyzed to assess their out-of-school perceptions related to SI. The aim was to clarify what phases and factors the campers associated with SI in nature, and how their perceptions differ after participating at a science camp. The findings suggest that the phases of SI were well known before the camp, but minor developments in campers’ perceptions of the …
Co-costruzione dell'apprendimento: dalla pratica riflessiva all'azione. Inquiry-Based Laboratory e action learning nella formazione dei futuri docent…
2022
Il presente lavoro espone gli esiti di una ricerca sperimentale a gruppo unico, condotta con 1350 corsisti e 120 docenti di laboratorio frequentanti il V ciclo del corso di specializzazione per le attività di sostegno didattico per le scuole dell’infanzia, primaria, secondaria di primo e secondo grado dell’Ateneo di Palermo svoltosi nell’A.A. 2020/2021. La cornice teorica all’interno della quale si delinea la ricerca è quella dell’approccio Inquiry-Based Laboratory (IBL), del Reflective Learning e dell’Action Learning, fondamentale per la costruzione di una professionalità docente competente, consapevole e responsabile. Il percorso di ricerca ha applicato il modello dell’IBL alle attività l…
Pre-service and in-service teachers' experiences of inquiry-based primary science teaching : A collaborative team teaching model
2019
This research clarifies how a collaborative team teaching model (CTTM) can support both pre-service and in-service teachers’ professional development in using inquiry-based science teaching in primary schools. The data were collected via a questionnaire-based survey approach after inquiry projects implementation at public schools in four Finnish cities. In total, 98 pre-service teachers and 51 inservice class teachers were involved in the research. According to their experiences collaborative team teaching was seen as an adequate teaching approach in primary school science lessons. Both in-service and pre-service teachers experienced inquirybased science teaching enthusiastically and receiv…
Pre-service teachers and guided inquiry-based science teaching with simulations
2017
The aim of this dissertation was explore the beliefs and practices of pre-service primary teachers on using simulations as a part of guided inquiry-based lessons. Even though research has shown that using simulations to learn science offers certain learning benefits compared to other forms of instruction, their use in Finnish schools is still rare compared to the international average. Teacher training has the potential to promote the use of simulations in primary classrooms. Internationally, research has been called for the role of teachers in learning and teaching with simulations. As a part of this dissertation, an intervention was designed to accustom a group of pre-service teachers to …
Tutkiva oppiminen evoluution opetuksessa lukiossa
2017
Uusi opetussuunnitelma velvoittaa opettajia kokeellisuuden ja tutkimuksellisuuden hyödyntämiseen opetuksessa, ja eräs keino tähän on tutkiva oppiminen. Tutkivassa oppimisessa tietoa ei omaksuta suoraan oppikirjasta tai opettajalta, vaan sitä hankitaan tieteelle tuttujen toimintamallien, kuten kysymysten, hypoteesien, selitysten ja kokeiden avulla. Tutkivan oppimisen vaiheet muodostavat yhdessä tutkivan oppimisen polun, jossa tieto tarkentuu vaihe vaiheelta. Opiskelijoita voidaan haastaa tutkivassa oppimisessa eri tavalla riippuen ovatko tutkimuskysymykset, menetelmät tai ratkaisut annettu heille etukäteen. Tutkivaa oppimista voidaan hyödyntää erilaisten aihepiirien opetuksessa kaikenikäiste…
Teaching sourcing during online inquiry – adolescents with the weakest skills benefited the most
2022
AbstractSourcing - identifying, evaluating, and using information about the sources of information - assists readers in determining what to trust when seeking information on the Internet. To survive in the post-truth era, students should be equipped with sufficient sourcing skills. This study investigated the efficacy of a teacher-led intervention aimed at fostering upper secondary school students’ (N = 365) sourcing during online inquiry. The intervention (4 × 75 min) was structured in accordance with the phases of online inquiry: locating, evaluating, synthesizing, and communicating information. During the intervention, teachers demonstrated why and how to source, and students practiced s…
