The automatic analysis of classroom talk
2017
The SMART SPEECH Project is a joint venture between three Finnish universities and a Chilean university. The aim is to develop a mobile application that can be used to record classroom talk and enable observations to be made of classroom interactions. We recorded Finnish and Chilean physics teachers’ speech using both a conventional microphone/dictator setup and a microphone/mobile application setup. The recordings were analysed via automatic speech recognition (ASR). The average word error rate achieved for the Finnish teachers’ speech was under 40%. The ASR approach also enabled us to determine the key topics discussed within the Finnish physics lessons under scrutiny. The results here we…
Skill learning during an asynchronous music e-learning module
2023
Learning musical skills is often associated with face-to-face teaching. Few studies on musical skill learning through asynchronous e-learning have been conducted; however, the demand for e-learning has increased due to multiform learning and individual education paths, unrestricted by time and place. This demand is the basis of this research. The focus of this study is Finnish classroom teacher students’ skill learning, learning processes, and learning experiences, while studying music independently through e-learning. The research method is an intensive case study with six students. Their learning diaries were analysed using a data-driven content analysis. Background factors were musical i…
Mathematics teachers and digital tools
2016
International audience; This chapter considers mathematics teachers’ appropriation and classroom use of digital tools. The first section considers teachers—who are they, how are they conceived in the literature and what aspects of teachers have been studied? The second section examines twenty-first century research on mathematics teachers using digital tools. This sheds light on the complexity of mathematics teachers’ appropriation and classroom use of digital tools but what we find is that our focus is too narrow and we need to consider digital tools within the range of resources use in planning and realising their lessons, which leads us to the third section, mathematics teachers using re…
Līdzdalības didaktiskās stratēģijas kā dažādības pedagoģiskais risinājums vidusskolēniem STEM kompetenču iegūšanas procesā
2017
Mūsdienu pasaulē, kur tehnoloģijas nemitīgi turpina attīstīties, skolotājiem ir nepieciešams pielietot šo iespaidīgo rīku, lai rosinātu ieinteresētību skolēnos un motivētu viņus. Viens no Meksikas Vidējās izglītības sistēmas reformas mērķiem ir attīstīt vispārējas un disciplināras kompetences Fizika IV priekšmetā starp dažādiem vidusskolas skolēniem. Lai sasniegtu šo mērķi, tiek izmantotas tādas didaktiskās stratēģijas kā prezentācijas klasē un savstarpēja sadarbība starp skolēniem, kas tiek papildinātas ar Robert Marzano Dimensiju teoriju, konstruktīvisma fokusu un padziļinātu mācību apguvi. Pielietojot šīs stratēģijas, tiek demonstrēts, ka motivēti skolēni strādā labāk, apgūst kompetences…
Multimodale Analyse von Interaktion im fremdsprachlichen Klassenzimmer
2016
The article offers a contribution to the interaction research in the foreign language teaching and learning. It starts with an overview of various research approaches to the foreign language teaching and learning, from the 60s to the present days. A multimodal analysis of an excerpt of videorecorded classroom interaction is then provided. The analysis is focused on several aspects of classroom participation and teaching sequences. Some implications of the present research for teachers' training are finally provided.

Episteemisyyden eli tietoon pääsyn tutkiminen luokkahuonevuorovaikutuksessa on kasvattanut suosiotaan keskustelunanalyyttisessa tutkimuksessa viime vuosina. Kasvavan kiinnostuksen taustalla on ajatus siitä, että oppiminen tapahtuu vuorovaikutuksessa toisten kanssa, kun taas vuorovaikutusta ajaa eteenpäin osallistujien välinen tiedollinen epäsymmetria. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoitus on lisätä tietoa episteemisyydestä luokkahuonevuorovaikutuksessa. Tarkastelin opettajan aloitevuoroja, joihin oli sisäänrakennettuna oletus oppilaan pääsystä tietoon eli oletus siitä, että oppilas tietää vastauksen kysymykseen. Lisäksi tarkastelin oppilaiden vastauksia opettajan kysymyksiin, sekä niitä seuraavia ope…
Teacher smiles as an interactional and pedagogical resource in the classroom
2020
In classroom settings, laughter and smiles are resources for action that are available to both teachers and students. Recent interactional studies have documented how students use these resources to deal with trouble of various kind, but less is known about the sequential and activity contexts of teachers’ laughter-relevant practices, as well as their pedagogical functions. We use multimodal conversation analysis (CA) to investigate the interactional unfolding and pedagogical orientations of teacher smiles during instructional IRE (initiation-response-evaluation) sequences in a corpus of 37 bilingual lessons collected in schools in Finland and Spain. In analysing the focal smiles, we pay at…

Humor in the classroom
2010
Huumori vuorovaikutuksessa on mielenkiintoinen tutkimuskohde, sillä se sekä vaikuttaa vuorovaikutustilanteessa olevien ihmisten suhteisiin että heijastaa niitä. Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli tutkia huumoria luokkahuoneessa ja selvittää, millaisia funktioita sillä on luokkahuoneen vuorovaikutuksessa. Monet aikaisemmat tutkimukset ovat osoittaneet, että opettajan huumorilla on myönteisiä vaikutuksia oppimiseen ja opiskeluilmapiiriin. Oppilaiden huumorilla sen sijaan on havaittu olevan sekä myönteisiä että kielteisiä vaikutuksia oppimiseen ja opiskeluilmapiiriin. Suomessa huumorin käyttöä kouluympäristössä on kuitenkin tutkittu hyvin vähän. Lisätutkimus huumorista voi antaa hyödyllistä t…
