Arithmetic, Logic, Syntax and MathCheck
2019
MathCheck is a web-based tool for checking all steps of solutions to mathematics, logic and theoretical computer science problems, instead of checking just the final answers. It can currently deal with seven problem types related to arithmetic, logic, and syntax. Although MathCheck does have some ability to perform symbolic computation, checking is mostly based on testing with many combinations of the values of the variables in question. This introduces a small risk of failure of detection of errors, but also significantly widens the scope of problems that can be dealt with and facilitates providing a concrete counter-example when the student’s solution is incorrect. So MathCheck is primari…
Training reading skills : towards fluency
2009
Sini Huemer tutki väitöstyössään lukemisen taitojen, erityisesti lukusujuvuuden, harjoittamista suomen- sekä saksankielisillä lapsilla.Vielä ei tiedetä kovin paljon lukemisen nopeuden eli sujuvuuden kehittymisestä sekä syistä siihen, miksi joillakin lapsilla lukeminen jää kovin työlääksi.- Viime vuosina kiinnostus lukemisen sujuvuuteen on kuitenkin lisääntynyt. Useissa tutkimuksissa on havaittu eroja eri kieltä puhuvien lasten lukemaan oppimisen nopeudessa ja lukemisvaikeuden piirteissä. Englanninkielisillä lapsilla kestää useita vuosia saavuttaa tarkka lukemisen taito, kun taas esimerkiksi suomenkieliset lapset oppivat yleensä lukemaan tarkasti jo ensimmäisen luokan aikana. Koska lukemisen…

Courage to learn and utilize ICT in teaching - building understanding of teachers who lack courage
2017
Innovative use of information and communication technology in education is a topic that has received a lot of attention both in public and academic debate Innovative practices have been communicated and visions for sharing them have been around for years, however, the large scale adoption of such practices has not yet been achieved While highlighting and sharing best practices may be an inherently positively motivated attempt, teachers enthusiastically explaining their innovative ICT practices may be met with even resentful attitudes from colleagues Discussion focusing on praising innovative ICT teaching practices as good ideals may leave those teachers whose current teaching isn’t up to th…
Teaching and learning to read in Afrikaans : teacher competence and computer-assisted support
2018
This thesis is in the form of a monograph consisting of three distinct, but related studies. The three studies examined Grade 1 teachers’ knowledge and perceptions of reading instruction in classrooms in Namibia; and the use of GraphoGame in Afrikaans as a digital learning tool and as an intervention tool for struggling readers. Three data sets were collected: teachers (N = 132), children (N = 202) and struggling readers (N = 19). The results offered three main findings. First, the results revealed that teachers lacked basic knowledge regarding language and reading instruction. Second, the effect of using the GraphoGame Afrikaans digital reading tool in the classroom showed that the gain sc…
