"Tavallista opetustyötähän tässä tehdään" : työn ohessa toteutettua opetusharjoittelua koskeva toimintatutkimus

1995

Tässä toimintatutkimuksessa kuvataan ja arvioidaan Jyväskylän yliopiston Chydenius-Instituutissa toteutetun uudentyyppisen harjoittelumuodon, ns. omaluokkaharjoittelun, kehittämis-ja toteutusprosessia. Ensimmäisen kerran päättöharjoittelun saattoi suorittaa omassa luokassa opettajan viransijaisena toimien 1992 syksyllä. Siten opiskelijat olivat harjoittelussa hajaantuneena eri kouluille ympäri Suomea. Opiskelijoiden harjoitteluun liittyi lukuisia tehtäviä, mm. lukukausi-ja jaksosuunnitelmien sekä harjoittelupäiväkirjan laatiminen. Harjoittelua ohjasivat sekä koulutuksen lehtorit että eri harjoittelupaikkakunnilla toimivat ala-asteen opettajat, jotka koulutusyksikkö oli kouluttanut tutorin t…

Student teachers and their identity construction and awareness of multilingualism: re-visiting three studies

2019

[EN] This article re-visits three studies that originally focused on beliefs about second language (L2) learning and teaching held by student teachers. The studies have been conducted in the same educational context (that is, at a Finnish university). The participants in the studies are majors or minors in English, Swedish, German, etc., and they range from first-year students to fifth-year students about to graduate as qualified L2 teachers. Data have been collected by a variety of means over the past few years (questionnaires, sentence-completion tasks, drawings), and partly longitudinally. The pools of data (verbal and visual) will be re-analysed from the perspective of identity construc…

Connecting the Language Classroom and the Wild : Re-enactments of Language Use Experiences

2018

AbstractUsing multimodal conversation analysis, this article analyses language learning as an in situ process during a teacher-assigned, experientially based pedagogical activity. The activity involved a three-part pedagogical structure, where learners first prepared for and then participated in real-life service encounters, and later reflected on their experiences back in the classroom. The analysis details how the co-constructed telling sequences through which novice second language users re-enact their experiences create an occasion for language-focused activity. We argue that the actions through which the participants display and sustain an orientation to an interactional practice as an…

Words, clauses, sentences, and T-units in learner language: Precise and objective units of measure?

2020

In research on learner language complexity, accuracy and fluency (CAF), syntactic complexity is often studied with quantitative measures based on words, clauses, sentences, and T-units. The findings have been mixed, but segmenting learner language into these units of measure has seldom been problematised, even if the need for accurate coding is well known. The present study explores words, clauses, sentences, and T-units as production units in written learner language using a corpus of 352 L2 Finnish texts (28,813 words). The results illustrate how written learner language can be hard to fit into the production unit categories, which are essential for the most frequently used quantitative m…

Lärarnas uppfattningar av att inleda undervisningen i A1-språk i årskurs 1

2022

Since 2020, the teaching of the A1 language starts in grade 1. In order to study the shift to an earlier start to the teaching of the A1 language, a survey of the teaching of A1 languages in grade 1 was carried out with the focus on the most common A1 languages: Finnish in the Swedish-medium schools and English in the Finnish-medium schools. The article examines the teachers’ perceptions of starting the teaching of A1 languages in grade 1. The data consists of 644 answers to an online questionnaire, of which 94 apply to A1 Finnish and 550 to A1 English. The results show that the teachers generally have a positive perception of early language teaching and consider starting the language in gr…

Investigating Syntactic Complexity in EFL Learners' Writing across Common European Framework of Reference Levels A1, A2, and B1

2019

Abstract The study investigates the linguistic basis of Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) levels in English as a foreign language (EFL) learners’ writing. Specifically, it examines whether CEFR levels can be distinguished with reference to syntactic complexity (SC) and whether the results differ between two groups of EFL learners with different first languages (Sindhi and Finnish). This sheds light on the linguistic comparability of the CEFR levels across L1 groups. Informants were teenagers from Pakistan (N = 868) and Finland (N = 287) who wrote the same argumentative essay that was rated on a CEFR-based scale. The essays were analysed for 28 SC indices with the L2 Syntactic Co…

Tavalliseen opetusryhmään integroitujen S2-opiskelijoiden arviointi ammatillisessa koulutuksessa

2017

Tutkin maisterintutkielmassani tavalliseen opetusryhmään integroitujen suomi toisena kielenä (S2) -opiskelijoiden arviointia ja sen käytänteitä ammatillisessa koulutuksessa sekä äidinkielenopettajien että ammattiaineiden opettajien näkökulmasta. S2-opiskelijoiden arviointikäytänteitä ei ole opettajien näkökulmasta juurikaan tutkittu, eikä ammatillisen koulutuksen puolelta tutkimusta arvioinnista yleisestikään ole paljoa. Omassa tutkimuksessani pääpaino on suomen kielellisten ja viestinnällisten taitojen arvioinnissa, mutta otan huomioon myös ammatillisen osaamisen kiinteänä osana ammatillisen koulutuksen arviointikäytänteitä. Kvalitatiivisen tutkimukseni aineisto koostuu opettajien puolistr…
