Finnish students' multiliteracy profiles

2004

Finnish students' multiliteracy profiles are examined from the perspectives of both traditional printed reading and Internet activities in the light of the data collected as a national option integrated into the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) 2000 study. After reciting some previous findings on reader profiles as revealed by the initial international analyses of PISA data, the perspective is widened to encompass multiliteracy, which is defined according to the sociocultural view. Based on responses to a survey questionnaire, students were grouped by cluster analysis into six distinct clusters according to the frequency with which they read diverse printed materials an…

2017

Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli kartoittaa liikunnanopettajien näkemyksiä liikunnan oppilasarvioinnista vuonna 2014 valmistuneen perusopetuksen valtakunnallisen opetussuunnitelman mukaan. Tutkimuksessa selvitetään myös, onko iällä tai sukupuolella yhteyttä opettajien näkemyksiin. Tutkimuksen kohteena olivat mm. opettajien perehtyminen ja suhtautuminen vuoden 2014 opetussuunnitelman mukaiseen arviointiohjeistukseen, opetussuunnitelman vaikutus käytännön arviointityöhön sekä opettajien näkemykset vuoden 2014 opetussuunnitelman mahdollisuuksista ja haasteista arviointityössä.

Finland: Towards the Future School

2018

Finland is known globally for two things: first, Santa Claus who is living in Korvatunturi in Lapland, near the Russian border; and second, education. A huge success in the international Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) results in the early 2000s raised Finnish education to the core of educational discussion all around the world. Finland’s top rankings in not only one category but in all three main test categories—literacy, mathematics and science—has led to many questions as to the origins of this success. The answers lay in two main categories: the developmental history of Finnish compulsory school and teacher education. In Finland, PISA results were of more importanc…

Why do boys and girls perform differently on PISA Reading in Finland? The effects of reading fluency, achievement behaviour, leisure reading and home…

2017

The present study examined gender gap in Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) Reading and mediators of the gender gap in a Finnish sample (n = 1,309). We examined whether the gender gap in PISA Reading performance can be understood via the effects of reading fluency, achievement behaviour (mastery orientation and task-avoidant behaviour) or the amount of time spent with leisure reading and homework. Girls outperformed boys in all measures except for achievement behaviour. The models explaining PISA Reading were not different: For boys and girls, reading fluency, mastery orientation, leisure book reading and homework explained the variance in PISA Reading scores. The gender ef…

Revista electrónica de investigación y evaluación educativa

2016

El Programa para la Evaluación Internacional de Alumnos (PISA) proporciona un marco en el que más de 80 países colaboran para construir métricas globales avanzadas para explorar los conocimientos, habilidades y atributos del estudiantado. El diseño de las evaluaciones plantea importantes desafíos conceptuales y técnicos, como el éxito del aprendizaje. Más allá de una base conceptual sólida, PISA necesita cumplir una serie de exigencias a veces contradictorios. Los/as administradores de escuelas, autoridades normativas y los docentes deben ser capaces de utilizar esta información de la evaluación para determinar cómo crear mejores oportunidades para el aprendizaje de los estudiantes. Las eva…

”Mitä pitäisi kehittää ja miten?” : lukiolaisten kokemuksia arvioinnista ja sen menetelmistä englannin opinnoissa

2020

Opiskelija-arvioinnilla on merkittävä asema kaikkialla koulumaailmassa, niin myös suomalaisessa lukiossa. Vaikutusvaltaisesta roolistaan huolimatta arviointia ja sen käytännön toteutusta lukiossa tai lukion kieltenopetuksessa on tutkittu niukasti. Tämän tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli tutkia kyselylomakkeen avulla, kuinka lukiolaiset (146 lukiolaista yhdestä koulusta) itse kokivat arvioinnin osana englannin opintojaan, millaisia arviointimenetelmiä he olivat kohdanneet ja mitä niistä he pitivät hyödyllisinä. Tämän tutkimuksen perusteella opiskelijat arvostivat arviointia, jonka he kokivat osuvan varsin oikeaan ja olleen melko monipuolista. Arviointi ei kuitenkaan ohjannut heitä eteenpäin kovink…

Can a cheat sheet in an EFL test engage and empower students?

2015

Although occasionally used in language classrooms, cheat-sheet tests have not been explored in foreign or second language education research. This study experimented with cheat-sheet tests in the teaching of EFL in a Finnish upper secondary school. The participants, 101 students, could make a cheat sheet for the grammar part of their English test. A total of 92 students prepared the cheat sheet, nine did not. Students’ cheat sheets, test results and comments constituted the data for this study, analysed both qualitatively and quantitatively. The existence of the cheat sheet and its quality (thorough, good or limited) correlated with the grammar test results: students with a thorough cheat s…
