Visualising knowledge from chat debates in argument diagrams
2010
This study investigates whether combining chat discussion and construction of an argument diagram stimulates students to formulate new ideas in practising argumentation. In this study, 16 secondary school students discussed vivisection and gender equality in pairs using both free and structured chat tools. In structured chat, the students selected and completed partial sentences provided by the computer. After the discussion, they jointly constructed either argument diagrams freely based on the previous discussions with an Internet tool or modified a diagram the computer had constructed automatically during the structured chat. The freely constructed diagrams contained more of the students'…
Repositioning teachers as assessors : Compromised aspirations and contested agency
2021
The global trend to emphasise assessment for learning brings up the issue of repositioning teachers in assessment. The contemporary curricular policy reforms encourage teachers to take an agentic role in assessment, but multiple dimensions of the environment affect its realisation. Drawing on an ecological approach to teacher agency, this empirical study investigated how Korean secondary English teachers (KSETs) perceive and enact their own teacher agency in assessment within the ecosystem of Korean education. The dataset for the study comprises semi-structured interviews with 15 KSETs. The interview questions involved the main themes such as personal experiences over the life course regard…
The significance of student voice: female students’ interpretations of failure in Tanzanian secondary education
2014
Abstract: In Tanzania, the national examinations are used as the primary tools for selection and transition from lower to upper secondary education. Female students are more likely to fail in the national exams and to drop out from education. This article examines the perspectives of female students concerning their advancement in secondary education. Two sets of qualitative data, responses to a research questionnaire from 100 female lower secondary school students and follow-up interviews with seven mature students enrolled in a non-formal school who had failed in the national examinations, were analysed to identify critical issues influencing the educational advancement of female students…
Opettaja- ja opettajankoulutustarpeiden ennakoinnin tuloksia
2011
Opettajan ammattia koskevan kiinnostuksen on havaittu viime vuosina heikentyneen monissa läntisissä teollisuusmaissa. Suomessa tilanne on monia muita maita parempi, mutta myös täällä on viritetty keskustelua mahdollisesta opettajapulasta. Sen pelätään pahenevan, varsinkin kun opettajan työssä vielä tällä hetkellä olevat suuret ikäluokat ovat jäämässä eläkkeelle. Tässä raportissa esitetään laskelmat, joilla ennakoidaan vuoden 2025 opettajatarvetta maassamme ja arvioidaan tämän opettajatarpeen tyydyttämisen vaatimaa opettajankoulutuksen volyymiä. Laskelmat perustuvat tuoreimpiin väestö-, opettaja- ja koulutustilastoihin sekä arvioihin opettajien eläköitymisestä, opettajan työssä pysymisestä, …
Investigating the professional agency of secondary school English teachers in South Korea
2020
This qualitative study examines the professional agency of secondary English teachers in Midwestern South Korea.

The ecological approach in this study recognises that agency encompasses both individual and environmental dimensions and is formed through the constant interplay between the individual and the environment. The dataset for this study comprises 15 semi-structured interviews with secondary English teachers in South Korea. The thematic analysis highlights a significant gap between Korean English teachers’ espoused agency and re…
Lukivaikeuksien yhteydet toisen asteen koulutusvalintaan ja opintoalavalintaan ammattioppilaitoksessa
2007
Monen kerroksen nuoria
2022
Toisen asteen koulutuksen oppilaista puhuttaessa media puhuu useimmiten lukiolaisista, kun taas ammattiin opiskeleviin ja TUVA-koulutuksen opiskelijoihin valokeila kohdistuu harvoin. Tämä kertoo yhteiskunnan pitkään jatkuneesta vallankäytöstä, jossa lukiolaisia nostetaan esille ja ammattikoululaiset jätetään ulkopuolelle. nonPeerReviewed
