Abstract:

This study investigates the relationships between theory-based vocabulary research (Anderson and Freebody, 1981; Mezynski, 1983), teacher perceptions of the effectiveness and usability of twelve vocabulary strategies on a researcher-developed survey, and observations in content area classrooms during vocabulary instruction. Among the findings, the following are major: (1) Each hypothesis offers differing instructional implications for vocabulary instruction; (2) the responses on the survey indicate that strategies implied by the Knowledge Hypothesis are the most effective and strategies implie

Abstract:

Professional learning can provide many benefits for teachers, particularly those who are early in their career. The provision of professional learning opportunities, such as induction into the profession, mentoring, and collaboration with experienced teachers, can help nurture the professional needs of early career teachers. If these types of professional needs are neglected, early career teachers’ self-efficacy may decrease and their motivation to remain in the teaching profession can be challenged. One type of professional learning that has shown promise for early career teachers is particip

Abstract:

Teaching is a complex and fundamentally collaborative process, through which knowledge and skills are acquired as a result of repeated interactions between teachers and students. The effectiveness of these interactions depends on both the instructional environment created by the teacher and the extent to which students engage with that environment. The current study combines these dimensions of teaching to (a) evaluate the construct validity of two instruments: the Middle School Intervention Project Classroom Observation Tool (MSIP-COT) and the Student Engagement Instrument (SEI), and (b) test

Syftet är att undersöka hur en lärandemodell med utgångspunkt i The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn kan utformas för att utveckla det kritiska tänkandet, samt behandla rasistiska samhällsfrågor och fördomar i det svenska ESL klassrummet. Utformandet av frågeställningen är grundad i flera av de mål som nämns i Lgr11. Forskningen utfördes i tre olika klassrum, på två olika skolor, av två lärarstudenter. Forskningens resultat

Abstract:

In traditional schooling, one-way monologue from teacher to student is the established way of communication in the classroom. Modern pedagogues are presently breaking free of this status quo. This master thesis explores whether there is a change in the student’s attitudes towards their schooling and whether there is an academic benefit for the student when applying a flipped classroom model. This study was performed in Swedish upper secondary school during the students’ last course in mathematics. The study was carried out using focus group interviews and direct participating observation.

Abstract:

This study focuses on science education in primary school. The aim is to systematize and exemplify the content in primary science, not only scientific content but everything surrounding teaching in science, in the forms of a didactical model. The study was performed in grades 1-3 (ages 7-10) in a Swedish primary- and lower secondary school. Four primary school teachers and their classes were followed in their teaching in science education. The empirical data consists of field notes, video- and audio recordings from in total 17 science lessons. The results show how science education in primary

Abstract:

The purpose of the present study was to explore teachers’ orchestration of the class communication during teaching and to show whether the communication can be explained by frame factors. This study is a multiple case study of two physics teachers – one public and one private school teacher - using observational and interview data to illustrate and analyze their communication/talk process in the classroom. Implications are drawn for the way that they develop dialogue, which is further explored in regards to identified frame factors. Data collection was complemented with field notes and audio-r

Abstract:

I denna empiriska studie har användningen av transspråkande undersökts på tre olikaskolor. Transspråkande innebär i korta drag att flerspråkiga elever ges möjlighet attanvända alla sina språk i undervisningen. Studien utgår från det sociokulturellaperspektivet, och syftet med studien är att undersöka hur muntlig kommunikationrealiseras i transspråkande klassrum samt hur lärmiljön i dessa klassrum är utformade.Materialet har samlats in genom systematiska observationer i transspråkandeklassrum på tre skolor. Med stöd av ett etablerat schema för observationer av 44språkutvecklande faktorer har lä
