Investigating the direct and indirect effects of a school-based leadership program for primary school students: Rationale and study protocol for the …
2023
Background Leadership is a valuable skill that can be taught in school, and which may have benefits within and beyond the classroom. Learning to Lead (L2L) is a student-led, primary school-based leadership program whereby older ‘peer leaders’ deliver a fundamental movement skills (FMS) program to younger ‘peers’ within their own school. Aim The aims of the study are to determine the efficacy of a peer-led FMS intervention on: (i) peer leaders’ (aged 10 to 12 years) leadership effectiveness (primary outcome), leadership self-efficacy, well-being, and time on-task in the classroom; (ii) peers’ (aged 8 to 10 years) physical activity levels, actual and perceived FMS competency, cardiorespirato…
Interpersonal work resources and school personnel well-being before and after lockdown during the first phase of the COVID-19 pandemic in Finland
2022
This two-wave mixed-methods study used the job demands and resources model to examine the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on school personnel's work well-being (including burnout, work engagement, and sense of belonging) in spring 2020 in Finland in particular with respect to collegial relationships (respectful engagement) and leadership support. A pre-lockdown survey was administered prior to the pandemic (in January–February, n = 437) and a post-lockdown survey was administered after the two-month lockdown (at the end of May, n = 270). At post-lockdown, the school personnel reported, on average, more exhaustion, less work engagement (measured as enthusiasm and energy at work), and a decr…
Measuring self‐regulated learning in a junior high school mathematics classroom : Combining aptitude and event measures in digital learning materials
2023
Background Measurement of students' self-regulation skills is an active topic in education research, as effective assessment helps devising support interventions to foster academic achievement. Measures based on event tracing usually require large amounts of data (e.g., MOOCs and large courses), while aptitude measures are often qualitative and need careful interpretation. Precise and interpretable evaluation of self-regulation skills in a normal K-12 classroom thus poses a challenge. Objectives The present study proposes and explores a learning analytics method of combining aptitude and event measures to evaluate student's self-regulation skills. Methods An explorative learning analytics s…
Spaced learning and innovative teaching: school time, pedagogy of attention and learning awareness.
2016
AbstractCurrently, the ‘time’ variable has taken on the function of instructional and pedagogical innovation catalyst, after representing-over the years-a symbol of democratisation, learning opportunity and instruction quality, able to incorporate themes such as school dropout, personalisation and vocation into learning. Spaced Learning is a teaching methodology useful to quickly seize information in long-term memory based on a particular arrangement of the lesson time that comprises three input sessions and two intervals. Herein we refer to a teachers’ training initiative on Spaced Learning within the programme ‘DocentiInFormAzione’ in the EDOC@WORK3.0 Project in Apulia region in 2015. The…
Warunki praktykowania edukacji domowej w Polsce
2021
The article concerns the subject of homeschooling practice conditions in Poland – it focuses on the legal conditions and outlines the socio-economic conditions in which Polish homeschoolers operate. It discusses the specific kind of right which is the right to education, its position in the systematics of the constitution and the connection to the learning duty and school duty. It brings attention to state-citizen relations and the rule of state subsidiarity. It points to legal regulations which allow realization of the school duty outside of school, underlining the controversial and discriminatory regulations which ignore the parents’ priority to decide on their own children’s education an…
Moniammatillisen yhteistyön kirjaaminen ja yhteistyötahojen asemointi esi- ja perusopetuksessa laadituissa oppimissuunnitelmissa ja HOJKS-asiakirjois…
2023
Tässä tutkimuksessa tarkastellaan, miten moniammatilliset yhteistyötahot asemoidaan esi- ja perusopetuksessa laadituissa oppimisen ja koulunkäynnin tuen asiakirjoissa. Tutkimusaineisto koostui 114 oppimissuunnitelmasta ja henkilökohtaisesta opetuksen järjestämistä koskevasta suunnitelmasta (HOJKS), jotka analysoitiin diskurssianalyyttisesti. Tutkimustulokset osoittivat, että yhteistyötahot asemoitiin asiakirjoissa viiteen eri positioon: äänetön läsnäolija, täydentävä tuentarjoaja, asiantuntija, auktoriteetti ja kumppani. Moniammatillisen yhteistyön kirjaaminen vaihteli pedagogisissa asiakirjoissa, eivätkä yhteistyötahojen vastuiden kirjaamiselle valtakunnallisissa opetussuunnitelmissa määri…

Tulevaisuuden avaintaidot puntarissa: Kahdeksannen luokan oppilaiden matematiikan ja luonnontieteiden osaaminen: kansainvälinen TIMSS 2019 -tutkimus …
2020
TIMSS (Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study) on kansainvälinen koulutuksen arvioinnin tutkimusohjelma, jossa joka neljäs vuosi arvioidaan neljäsja kahdeksasluokkalaisten oppilaiden matematiikan ja luonnontieteiden osaamista. Kansainvälinen arviointijärjestö IEA (International Association for the Evaluation of Educational Achievement) on johtanut vertailevan arvioinnin tutkimuksia jo 1960-luvulta lähtien. TIMSStutkimusohjelma alkoi vuonna 1995, ja Suomi osallistui tähän tutkimukseen ensimmäisen kerran vuonna 1999. Vuoden 2011 tutkimuskerralla Suomesta arviointiin osallistuivat sekä neljäs- että kahdeksasluokkalaiset oppilaat, mutta viimekertaisessa TIMSS 2015 -arvioinnissa m…

LEARNING STYLES AND METACOGNITION
2014
In this paper we introduce the results of a research that involved 60 primary school pupils. Attention is drawn to a relevant issue in instructional research: the potential value to learners of metacognitive awareness. Some implications of these issues for learning styles research are then discussed. The purpose of this study was to investigate how students perceive learning and their learning styles preferences. Through a reflection on relations between the personalization of education and knowledge of learning styles, we will emphasize how the very important issue, for a teacher, is to create his own working knowledge on his students' learning styles, if he really wants effectively stimul…
