2019

The data comprise interviews with teachers and classroom observations, as well as teaching plans and other ma…

Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on selvittää, tarjoavatko yläkoulun 7. luokan oppimateriaalien kielioppitehtävät oppilaille mahdollisuuden uusien sanojen oppimiseen tai omaksumiseen sisällyttämällä kielioppitehtäviin oppilaille entuudestaan tuntemattomia sanoja, vai onko kielioppitehtävien sanasto oppilaille entuudestaan tuttua. Jälkimmäisessä tapauksessa opeteltavan kielioppiasian tärkeys korostuu ja sanaston ja kieliopin erottaminen toisistaan oppimateriaalissa on selvästi nähtävissä. Aikaisemmat tutkimukset ovat osoittaneet sanastonosaamisen olevan ensiarvoisen tärkeää vieraan kielen hallitsemisessa ja painottaneet oppimateriaalien tärkeyttä sanastonoppimisessa. Lisäksi on havaittu, että useat…
