‘What’s the Moment Thingy?’– On the Emergence of Subject-Specific Knowledge in CLIL Classroom Interaction

2017

Situated in the European CLIL context where mainstream schools may opt for teaching content subjects through the medium of a foreign or second language, this paper explores secondary school physics classrooms, taught through English in Finland. The focus is on the role of classroom interaction in the emergence of subject-specific knowledge during six consecutive lessons, with particular attention to how one key concept in physics, ‘moment’, is handled. This micro-longitudinal approach shows that while the students are struggling between the everyday and the academic meanings of the word ‘moment’ throughout, there are also clear signs of progression. These signs show, for example, in student…

Oppilaiden kaikupuheen tehtävät kielellisesti epäsymmetrisissä luokkahuonekeskusteluissa

2017

Repeating the words of the conversational partners gives the persons with restricted communicative abilities a possibility for taking an active part in and exerting some control in the conversational interaction. Earlier research has approached the repeats with two different viewpoints: they have been considered either as problematic and meaningless echolalia, or as motivated communication meaningful for speakers themselves. This paper examines the functions for which students with special needs use repetition in their interaction with teachers and the ways in which teachers treat these echolalic responses in classroom talk. The research data consists of the video-recordings of lessons in o…

That German Stuff : Negotiating linguistic legitimacy in a foreign language classroom

2018

This qualitative case study of one German suburban high school classroom in the Midwestern United States examines how learners of German negotiate their linguistic legitimacy, which is defined as discursively constructed acceptance or validation for their language use. Specifically, it investigates how the students negotiated legitimacy for using their target language German in their classroom. Based on the premise that linguistic legitimacy is crucial for the maintenance and development of speakers’ languages, data was collected and analyzed from classroom recordings, semi-structured interviews, and participant observations. Findings revealed that, while English dominated the lessons as th…

Retrospective Orientation to Learning Activities and Achievements as a Resource in Classroom Interaction

2018

This article explores the temporal nature of language learning in classroom settings through the lens of Conversation Analysis (CA) by drawing on video‐recorded interactions from Content and Language Integrated (CLIL) classrooms. It outlines some methodological challenges that the task of documenting language learning in and as observable social interaction poses for CA studies of second language (L2) learning and proposes that learning has typically been described as either a situated activity (in cross‐sectional studies) or a series of intermediate achievements (in longitudinal studies). The empirical analysis focuses on interactional instances in which students observably invoke and desc…

I will send badass viruses. Peer threats and the interplay of pretend frames in a classroom dispute

2014

This paper explores threats as they appear in children's everyday dispute interactions. The main purpose is to extend understandings of children's interactions and disputes in order to show how young boys construct threats in pretend frames within a classroom peer dispute by drawing upon the resources of the video game world and a verbally constructed fight. The conceptual and methodological frameworks underpinning the analysis are conversation analysis and Goffman's concept of frame. The analysis focuses on one episode that illustrates how the boys, in the absence of the teacher, invoke, share and switch frames within the dispute. Using pretence, they posit threats and build attack strateg…

The relationship between classroom quality and students' engagement in secondary school

2013

Student engagement has been identified as an influential mediator between classroom interactional quality and adolescent learning outcomes. This study examined the relationship between classroom quality and student behavioural engagement in secondary school classrooms. Three dimensions of classroom quality (emotional, organisational and instructional support) and the dimension of student engagement were observed in nine classrooms using the Classroom Assessment Scoring System. Self-ratings of behavioural engagement were provided by 181 Finnish secondary school students along with their teachers’ ratings of classroom-level student engagement. The results showed, first, that there was variati…

Lapset kertovat : opettaja huomioi vai huomioiko?

2016

Holopainen, Pia-Liisa. & Lahtinen, Salla. 2016. Lapset kertovat – Opettaja huomioi vai huomioiko? Kasvatustieteen pro gradu -tutkielma. Jyväskylän yliopisto. Opettajankoulutuslaitos. 64 sivua. Tarkastelemme tässä tutkimuksessa lasten osallisuutta oppitunneilla heidän esille tuomiensa keskusteluiden kautta. Tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on selvittää, millaisia keskusteluja oppitunneilla ilmenee sekä sitä, miten opettajat ottavat keskustelun huomioon osaksi opetustaan. Tutkimuksen aineisto on osa laajempaa Alkuportaat-seurantatutkimusta. Aineistomme on muodostunut luokkahuonevuorovaikutukseen kuuluvien keskusteluiden litteraateista. Tutkimusmenetelmänä tässä tutkimuksessa käytettiin aineistolähtö…

TIIVISTELMÄ Eskola, Annamaija ja Kumpulainen, Katri. 2017. Nykyisen oppimiskäsityksen mukaisen matematiikan formatiivisen arvioinnin kohteet oppilaiden ja opettajien näkökulmasta. Erityispedagogiikan pro gradu -tutkielma. Jyväskylän yliopisto. Kasvatustieteiden tiedekunta. 64 sivua. Tässä pro gradu -tutkielmassa selvitettiin nykyisen oppimiskäsityksen mukaisia matematiikan formatiivisen arvioinnin kohteita oppilaiden ja opettajien näkökulmasta. Lisäksi tutkittiin, millaisia yhtäläisyyksiä ja eroavaisuuksia oppilas- ja opettajanäkökulmista voidaan löytää sen suhteen. Tutkimus toteutettiin ja analysoitiin kvalitatiivisin menetelmin.

A methodological approach to exploring the rhythm of classroom discourse in a cumulative frame in science teaching

2014

The purpose of this study was to characterise the nature and purpose of different types of classroom discourse and to explore how the rhythm of classroom discourse provides a cumulative frame for the teaching of science. The overall data consisted of a teaching sequence of eight lessons on the moment of force as taught to physiotherapy students at a Finnish University of Applied Sciences. Our in-depth multiple timescale analysis of two episodes illustrated in this study shows examples how cumulation was instantiated by the different types of classroom discourse. The methodology and findings of this study have implications both for teacher education and further research. peerReviewed
