Abstract:
Essentially, planning is only effective if it actually works for the individual teacher within his or her classroom. The most vital component of a good plan is that it leads to a high-quality lesson, in which effective learning takes place. It could be that the children do not actually learn what was originally intended by the teacher in his or her plan, but that the learning outcomes are nevertheless very good.

Abstract:
There lacks coherent and persuasive rationales for the further development of computer-based, interactive educational materials, for tertiary settings. Indeed, educational software arising out of what might be coined the “multimedia era”, namely the mid and later 19902, has been marked by lacklustre products with an emphasis in development and evaluation placed largely on technological issues (such as the use of video, sound and animations). As such, the rapid increase in commercially available (usually CD based) products has generally met a cool adoption from academics and educationalists, with both these groups often bemoaning the paucity or non-existence of effective instructional design models for the use of “new media” in teaching and learning, based in clearly delineated constructs that derive their substance from theoretical models and research findings. This research programme was intended to explore one such rationale.

Abstract:
The primary objective of this study was to describe the influences upon pre-service elementary teachers' preplanning, lesson planning, and bases for interactive decision making during their lesson implementation. Six female volunteer pre-service elementary teachers from the teacher preparation program at the University of North Texas planned and taught three separate lessons in one of the following content areas-social studies, language arts, mathematics, science, and safety, at six different schools in the north Texas area. Each element of the lesson plans (18 total) was classified for analysis. Following the presentation of each lesson, the pre-service teachers were asked to use the repertory-grid technique to sort out five decisions from a series of lesson-implementation decisions which had been observed and recorded by the investigator. Then the six pre-service teachers were interviewed by the investigator using the stimulated recall technique. During the interview, each decision was discussed with the pre-service teachers, who responded to seven structural questions that probed their concerns, attitude, type of concerns, and number of concerns. The six pre-service elementary teachers possessed some ability to direct students in their classroom learning using activities and instructional knowledge. This enabled them to notice individual student performance and that of students in the group or in the class. During their interactive teaching, pre-service elementary teachers made more decisions concerning the implementation of management strategies than decisions concerning instruction and activities, in their classroom management, the pre-service teachers focused the most attention on students' verbalization and performance. The study showed that the student's classroom behavior, the thing in which a student is interested, the student's relationship with other students, the feeling of a student, and a student's action caused the six pre-service elementary teachers to immediately modify their strategies.

Full text
Abstract:
The role of teaching experience has been acknowledged in the development of pedagogical expertise, however, past research has failed to specify the relationship between experience and expertise. The ill-defined nature of the teaching task has led researchers to inadequately define pedagogical expertise directly in terms of years of teaching experience. Moreover, the literature on pedagogical expertise is primarily based on data from school teachers, who typically are not subject matter experts in the topics they teach. This study attempted to establish the differences and similarities between experienced and inexperienced university professors in the planning and delivery of teaching and the extent to which these activities and processes resembled expert characteristics. Indices of teaching effectiveness were derived from both theoretical and empirical sources and applied to the practices of 11 university professors, ranging in experience from 1 to 30 years. After the conduction of a lecture, subjects were interviewed and asked to elaborate on planning decisions made prior to teaching and to trace the events of the class. Protocols were then analyzed for the presence of characteristics of pedagogical expertise as defined above. Important differences were revealed between the teaching practices of experienced and less experienced professors which involved: (1) automaticity of activities, (2) teaching a lecture as part of the global task of teaching, (3) knowledge integration, (4) flexibility of plan implementation, (5) use of planning notes, (6) time management, and (7) reflections. Important group similarities were also revealed. Implications for the development of pedagogical expertise are discussed.

Full text
Abstract:
Instruction at a distance is rapidly becoming one of the most widely used modes for teaching post-secondary learners. One of the distinctive characteristics of distance education is the emphasis on course development and the models of course development which have evolved. To date, however, the literature offers little understanding of the knowledge bases upon which current practice in distance education course development is based. Expertise in course development has not been characterized in any systematic way, and it is not known how novice and expert DE course developers differ in the way they conceptualize and go about course development. Even less is known about how course developers move toward expertise and from where they draw their understanding. The primary purpose of this study is to begin the investigation of these questions, based on data collected from multiple sources and contexts. Qualitative methods were used to collect and analyze data on the reflections of the course design process by nine participants. Participants varied in their experience level, the level of course they designed, and their role in the design process. Participants took part in a semi-structured interview and were asked to provide written responses to a practical design critique exercise. Themes or issues were allowed to emerge from the data, and were characterized along three main topics: the learner, design decisions, and evaluation. Differences between novices and more experienced participants were observed in their depth of understanding about the learner, the influence of theoretical constructs on their making design decisions, and the influence of context on the design process.

Abstract:
This study is in response to the question about how Japanese educators achieve such a high quality of instruction. Considering the area of lesson study has opened the door to new ideas and concepts that are not well defined and too broad to understand. Kyozaikenkyu is an aspect of lesson study that has been said to be a crucial aspect to successful lesson study. Kyozaikenkyu is done on a daily basis by Japanese educators; however, there is very little written about this process in relevant literature. This study examines what Japanese educators do during their daily kyozaikenkyu, and why they do it. Through interviews, observations, and participation in kyozaikenkyu, I have been able to describe a process many Japanese educators go through to prepare their lessons. There is a difference between what these educators do during kyozaikenkyu for a research lesson compared to the kyozaikenkyu of a daily lesson. I document two variations of daily kyozaikenkyu. One variation corresponds well to the kyozaikenkyu done for a research lesson, while the other variation is something new. This thesis expounds on those differences as well as explores the purposes and benefits of daily kyozaikenkyu for the Japanese educators that participated in them.

Abstract:
This is a quantitative study which explores the use of Lesson Plans (LPs) in Afghan primary schools. The main objectives of this study were to find out the implementation method of LPs, reasons of applying LPs and teachers’ views on LPs. This study was conducted in three districts (Shekh Ali, Siah Gerd and Shinwari) and Charikar city of Parwan Province and data was collected by questionnaires filled in by 200 language and math teachers (100 male and 100 female). The main findings of the research show that all teachers regardless of sex, education level and teaching experiences claimed that they used LPs in their teaching. A majority of teachers, regardless of sex, education background and years of teaching experience elaborated LPs of their own and did not use the format instructed by Teacher Training Colleges (TTC). Most teachers prepared their LPs one day before and at home. To consider the importance of LP stages the findings show that the majority of both male and female teachers responded to all stages. Through a short glance on reasons of applying LPs we see that 50% of both male and female teachers used LPs to achieve the goal. More experienced teachers didn’t use LPs because of having enough experiences. Important parts of LPs include motivation of students and student activities. The study found that teachers often motivated their students by telling a story or poem. Group work was a common activity. One implication of this study is that the TTC should revise their teaching on LPs since hardly any teacher seems to use these formats.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis reports on an ethnographic inquiry into student teachers’ professional learning and development in a four-month practicum, during which no mentor is present. The subject background is Teaching Chinese as a Second Language (TCSL) in mainland China. This study draws on a variety of theories, such as Wenger’s social learning theory, Brookfield’s significant personal learning theory, Fuller’s teacher concern theory and Ghaye’s reflection hierarchy model, to conceptualize a theoretical framework to interpret collected data. The research involves two phases, i.e., the pilot and main study, each of which includes three participants. This thesis mainly reports the three cases in the main phase, with a brief account of the pilot phase. The methodological orientation of this research is naturalistic inquiry, which involves multiple data collection methods, such as student teachers’ reflective journals, individual and group interviews, lesson observations, documentary analysis, field notes and email correspondence, of which reflective journals are the main data source. The findings suggest that the student teachers are highly self-reliant in undertaking professional learning when no mentors are present. Very little participation in the professional community has been identified in all of the six cases, which is presumably attributed to the no mentorship context. Student teachers who possess a strong passion for teaching make attempts to expand their professional communities at the initial stage of the practicum; however, they are demotivated when their attempts fail. They thereafter have to rely on their own initiative by drawing on their prior teaching experiences or other resources available in their personal communities. Those who are not passionate about teaching do not take the initiative to widen their professional communities and make no changes throughout the practicum. The results also indicate that the student teachers suffer extreme anxiety, often for the whole practicum period. They are tormented by self-doubt and panic about the uncertainties and emergencies in teaching. They show great concern for “self” throughout the practicum and rarely demonstrate concern for “tasks”, “teaching performance” or “learners”. Their concern for survival predominates the whole practicum. The student teachers’ reflections as revealed in their teaching journals are basically at the descriptive and perceptive level. Little higher-level reflection has been identified. This is also likely to be associated with the no mentorship context. Recommendations for the TCSL teacher preparation programmes and the student teachers are highlighted. For the programmes, providing a more structured and supportive environment is suggested. The student teachers are advised to take more initiative to widen their professional communities and to have more peer learning and self-directed learning. A good combination of formal and informal learning can enable them to achieve the maximum professional growth in the practicum.

Abstract:
Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Master of Education: Visual Art Education in the Faculty of Education at the Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2012
This thesis investigates the factors, specifically the constraints, that influence the choices intermediate phase teachers make when planning visual art lessons. The study is also concerned with how teachers deal with factors that they identify as constraints to teaching visual art. The study is framed within an interpretive framework and the work on teacher knowledge by Shulman (1986; 1987). Semi-structured interviews were conducted with four class teachers, three Arts and Culture teachers, and four visual art teachers using a phenomenological methodology. Interviews were analysed systematically by indexing and organizing the data using the knowledge base for teaching as described by Shulman (1987) and Turner-Bisset (1999).

The patterns in what teachers consider when planning visual art lessons, and their reasons for doing so, was better explained by a teacher’s training in visual art education rather than his/her role as a class, Arts and Culture, or visual art teacher. In this study, the teachers who are trained in visual art education generally work in situations with few contextual problems and their focus, when lesson-planning, centres around the best way visual art content knowledge can be integrated into lessons. In comparison, most of the teachers who are not trained in visual art education mentioned numerous contextual problems that affected their ability to teach visual art. These teachers plan their visual art lessons around what they believe they are able to manage within the context of the school they are working in, rather than specific visual art related outcomes. In addition, their lesson-planning decisions are generally based on limited visual art content knowledge and pedagogy. Hence, compared to teachers trained to teach visual art, their application of visual art content knowledge is haphazard and does not build on the foundation of the curriculum.

Limited contact time and support from management are two contextual factors that were found to impact the way teachers in this study plan visual art lessons. To mitigate for the lack of contact time, the teachers trained in visual art education endeavoured to manage their lesson time efficiently and to setup clear routines with their learners so as to minimize the amount of time spent on non-learning activities.

Full text
Abstract:
Planning for teaching imposes a significant burden on teachers, as teachers need to prepare different lesson plans for different classes according to various constraints. Statistical evidence shows that lesson planning in the Malaysian context is done in isolation and lesson plan sharing is limited. The purpose of this thesis is to investigate whether a case-based system can reduce the time teachers spend on constructing lesson plans. A case-based system was designed SmartLP. In this system, a case consists of a problem description and solution pair and an attributevalue representation for the case is used. SmartLP is a synthesis type of CBR system which attempts to create a new solution by combining parts of previous solutions in the adaptation. Five activities in the CBR cycle retrieve, reuse, revise, review and retain are created via three types of design: application, architectural and user interface. The inputs are the requirements and constraints of the curriculum and the student facilities available, and the output is the solution, i.e. appropriate elements of a lesson plan. The retrieval module consists of five types of search advanced search, hierarchical, Boolean, basic and browsing. Solving a problem in this system involves obtaining a problem description, measuring the similarity of the current problem to previous problems stored in a database, retrieving one or more similar cases and attempting to reuse the solution of the retrieved cases, possibly after adaptation. Case adaptation for multiple lesson plans helps teachers to customise the retrieved plan to suit their constraints. This is followed by case revision, which allows users to access and revise their constructed lesson plans in the system. Validation mechanisms, through case verification, ensure that the retained cases are of quality. A formative study was conducted to investigate the effects of SmartLP on performance. The study revealed that all the lesson plans constructed with SmartLP assistance took significantly less time than the control lesson plans constructed without SmartLP assistance, although they might have access to computers and other tools. No significant difference in writing quality, measured by a scoring system, was noticed for the control group, who constructed lesson plans on the same tasks without receiving any assistance. The limitations of SmartLP are indicated and the focus of further research is proposed. Keywords: Case-based system, CBR approach, knowledge acquisition, knowledge representation, case representation, evaluation, lesson planning.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to explore the McDaniel College Elementary STEM Instructional Leader (ESIL) pilot cohort's ability to proficiently plan lessons that incorporated the Maryland State STEM Standards of Practice (SOP), targeting integration of STEM content, inquiry learning, students' abilities to collaborate as a STEM team and students' strategic application of technology. Data collection, in the form of reviewing and analyzing study participants' lesson plans and self-reflections, was completed by three independent assessors. The researcher examined the interrater reliability among the three assessors using the Fleiss' kappa statistic. A 0.91 proportion of agreement consensus was documented among the three assessors. A test of hypothetical value was conducted using the nonparametric Wilcoxon-signed-rank Test. Interpretation of the Wilcoxon-signed-rank Test results suggest that the sample population demonstrated proficient planning abilities for the four targeted Maryland State STEM SOP. Findings from this research add to the field's knowledge of elements in the promotion of graduate coursework that leads to elementary in-service teachers' proficiency in planning STEM-centric lessons, however the findings also have broader implications for teacher education at large. The McDaniel College ESIL model could frame K-12 teacher education for both pre-service and in-service teachers. The pragmatic, hybrid experience maximizes flexibility, promotes analytical thinking and self-reflection and builds communication skills. The introduction and development of inquiry and design-based learning through the 7E Learning Cycle develops the teachers' understanding of practices promoted not only within the Maryland State STEM SOP, but also within the Next Generation Science Standards. The McDaniel College ESIL model also builds upon the collective efforts of academia, a non-profit STEM research facility, and local school divisions to align efforts that may lead to transformational changes for education. Essential ingredients for systemic change are embedded within the McDaniel ESIL model.

Abstract:
Bilingual education is one of the most divided, highly researched and discussed topics in the United States today. While individuals may have their own opinions as to what bilingual education program they believe works best for English language learners, something that many forget to consider is the fact that any program can be a success or a complete failure, depending on the effort of its implementation. The topic of my thesis is to provide teachers with considerations for lesson planning in three types of bilingual programs or classrooms: dual language, transitional bilingual, and Structured English Immersion (SEI) programs. What I chose to focus on is not what program works "best" based on extensive research and theory, but on what teachers can do in each of the three language program settings to make it work best for their students, which is the ultimate goal.

Abstract:
The use of technology in Kindergarten to grade 12 classrooms provides opportunities for teachers to employ mathematical rigor, to integrate problem solving strategies and to extend mathematical ways of knowing (Drier, Dawson, & Garofalo, 1999). The presentation consists of two parts. One investigation maps secondary mathematics technology lessons and materials to the elementary school mathematics standards and converts the mathematics concepts to manageable elementary school lessons. The other investigation analyzes pre-service teacher lessons written using ASSURE instructional design format. The major aims of this paper are to present two teacher preparation practices, one for secondary mathematics pre-service teachers (converting secondary materials to elementary materials) and the other for elementary mathematics pre-service teachers (writing lessons using the ASSURE model).

Abstract:
Recent changes in language teaching methodology have created needs for a better understanding of lesson planning among English as a second language (ESL) teachers . Research on teacher thinking and lesson planning in general suggests that teachers mainly pay attention to content, activities, and student characteristics, but these elements may have unique features in second language instruction. The present study investigated the lesson planning of 6 inexperienced student teachers of ESL and 6 experienced sponsor teachers of ESL teaching the same students in a practicum context. The teachers' planning was analyzed in terms of the attention they gave to content, activities, and student characteristics, while assessing possible differences between the two groups. The study found that ESL teachers gave more consideration to content and activities than they did to student characteristics. Both groups considered these three aspects of lesson planning individually about half the time and in conjunction with other aspects of planning about half the time. Experienced teachers proved to use more complex mental representations of lesson planning than student teachers did. However, many individual differences emerged among the inexperienced and experienced teachers, obscuring differences between groups for most of the planning behaviors assessed. The student characteristics most often mentioned in think-aloud protocols during lesson planning, and reported as most important on a rating scale, were students' English proficiency, personal motivation, language learning needs, and interests. Further studies should use a larger sample of teachers and might profitably investigate lesson planning throughout an entire course.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Against the background of education reforms, this study was conducted to determine what can be learnt from using lesson study as professional development strategy in Eritrea. The core problem discussed in the study is that the instigators of successive education reforms in Eritrea expected teachers to shift their teaching from more teacher focused to student-centred approaches with little or no support provided to them. This implies that teachers in Eritrean need effective and sustainable support systems that enable them to implement the reform initiatives. In this study, the researcher uses lesson study as a strategy that could provide teacher development experiences to teachers in Eritrea that are different from the traditional one-shot varieties such as workshops, short-term orientations and training of trainer programmes which are often normally provided by the official programmes. Lesson study is a well-established classroom-based activity in which teachers systematically examine their teaching by collaboratively planning, teaching, observing, revising and re-teaching lessons. Several successes with lesson study have been reported in research in Japan, where it has been used extensively, as well as elsewhere. However, no study on teacher professional development has been conducted using lesson study as a strategy within the Eritrean context. This study is an interpretive qualitative case study that explores the effects of lesson study on science teachers’ learning and classroom practice in selected middle schools of Eritrea. It involved twenty one participants – fifteen science teachers, three school directors and three pedagogic heads for a duration of one year. Data were generated through questionnaires, semi-structured focus group interviews, observations, documents for generating research lesson events, video-recordings and photographs. The findings show that participation in lesson study cycles that were extended over a period of time was effective in enhancing the learning of teachers and changing the way they teach science in their classrooms resulting in enhanced students confidence, participation and learning. Evidence reported in this study also indicates that lesson study made a contribution to minimising teacher isolation by bringing teachers together to collaborate and share professional ideas and experiences. Moreover, the findings show the existence of a direct relationship between teachers’ interest in teacher development initiatives and the interest that the school leadership shows in such initiatives and in the extent of support they provide to the participating teachers. Though participants reported receiving benefits from lesson study, they were constrained by a lack of time, curriculum overload, large class-size, teachers’ poor living conditions, lack of suitable space, shortage of resources, students’ poor English proficiency, newness of the process and students’ negligence. This study has also contributed to extending the body of knowledge on lesson study. Finally, it is hoped that the findings of this study may be used as a guiding framework for future teacher development initiatives in the education sector or other professional development programmes in Eritrea.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie is teen die agtergrond van onderwyshervormings in Eritrea onderneem om te bepaal wat uit die gebruik van lesstudie as strategie vir die professionele ontwikkeling van Eritrese opvoeders geleer kon word. Die kernprobleem van die studie is dat die opeenvolgende onderwyshervormings in Eritrea vereis dat onderwysers hulle onderrigbenadering van opvoedergerigte na meer studentegerigte metodes verander, sonder dat hulle enige noemenswaardige ondersteuning ontvang. Dit impliseer dat daardie onderwysers ’n doeltreffende en volhoubare ondersteuningstelsel nodig het om die hervormingsinisiatiewe in werking te stel. Met die lesstudiestrategie wat in hierdie navorsing gebruik is, is onderwysers in Eritrea blootgestel aan ander ontwikkelingservarings as die tradisionele eenmalige weergawes, wat gewoonlik in die vorm van werksessies, korttermynoriënterings en opleier-opleidingsprogramme plaasvind. Lesstudie is ’n gevestigde klaskamergebaseerde aktiwiteit waarin onderwysers hulle eie onderrig stelselmatig ondersoek deur lesse in samewerking met kollegas te beplan, aan te bied, waar te neem, te hersien en weer aan te bied. Verskeie suksesse met lesstudie is al aangemeld in navorsing in Japan, waar dit op groot skaal gebruik word, sowel as elders. Tog is geen studie oor die professionele ontwikkeling van onderwysers in Eritrese verband al met behulp van lesstudie as ’n strategie uitgevoer nie. Die metodologie vir die navorsing was ’n vertolkende kwalitatiewe gevallestudie wat ondersoek ingestel het na die uitwerking van lesstudie op wetenskaponderwysers se leer- en klaskamerpraktyk in uitgesoekte middelbare skole in Eritrea. Die 21 respondente – 15 wetenskaponderwysers, drie skooldirekteure en drie onderrighoofde – is vir ’n jaar by die studie betrek. Data is deur middel van vraelyste, semigestruktureerde fokusgroeponderhoude, waarnemings, dokumente vir die skep van navorsingslesgebeure, video-opnames en foto’s ingesamel. Die bevindinge toon dat deelname aan lesstudiesiklusse oor ’n langer tydperk onderwysers se leerpraktyk doeltreffend versterk en hulle wetenskaponderrig in die klas verander het. Dit het verhoogde vertroue, deelname en leer onder studente tot gevolg gehad. Bewyse wat in hierdie studie aangemeld is, toon ook dat lesstudie onderwyser-isolasie help beperk het deur onderwysers bymekaar te bring om saam te werk en professionele idees en ervarings uit te ruil. Daarbenewens dui die bevindinge op ’n regstreekse verband tussen onderwysers se belangstelling in inisiatiewe vir hulle eie ontwikkeling en die skoolleiers se klaarblyklike belangstelling in, en ondersteuning vir, onderwysers en hulle professionele ontwikkeling. Hoewel deelnemers by lesstudie baat gevind het, is hulle aan bande gelê deur tydsbeperkinge, ’n oorvol kurrikulum, groot klasse, swak lewensomstandighede, ’n tekort aan geskikte ruimte, te min hulpbronne, swak vaardigheid in Engels onder studente, die nuutheid van die proses en studente se agtelosigheid. Hierdie studie dra by tot die uitbreiding van die beskikbare kennis oor lesstudie. Die bevindinge sal hopelik as ’n raamwerk kan dien om toekomstige inisiatiewe vir opvoederontwikkeling in die onderwyssektor sowel as in ander programme vir professionele ontwikkeling in Eritrea te rig.

Abstract:
O processo de ensino-aprendizagem visa que sujeitos-professores promovam o ensino a alunos, com o objetivo que eles adquiram um conhecimento. Entretanto, este processo é influenciado por diversas variáveis: estrutura curricular, perfil dos alunos, direção e coordenação pedagógica, corpo docente, comunidade onde estão inseridos, duração e planejamento das aulas, recursos disponíveis, etc. O planejamento permite que o professor organize e estabeleça como as aulas ocorrerão, bem como o tempo necessário, a fim de garantir a aprendizagem. Neste processo, o professor faz uso de recursos didáticos, como mediadores. Dentre as diversas possibilidades de recursos educativos, encontram-se os objetos de aprendizagem. Eles consistem em recursos físicos ou digitais, que tem como diferencial, o uso de um conjunto de metadados com informações relacionadas ao objeto de aprendizagem. Os metadados são arquivos padronizados que seguem especificações que orientam como estes devem estar descritos, de forma a permitir a indexação e recuperação em repositórios. Dentre as especificações para metadados, destacam-se: a Dublin Core, IEEE LOM e OBAA. O Dublin Core é a especificação mais utilizada por repositórios, entretanto, foi desenvolvida para descrever qualquer recurso, sendo educacional ou não. O IEEE LOM é considerada a especificação mais completa, e permite a descrição de objetos de aprendizagem físicos e digitais. O OBAA é uma proposta brasileira que se baseia no IEEE LOM e apresenta como diferencial, por exemplo, a descrição de objetos de aprendizagem multiplataforma e maior detalhamento das características pedagógicas. Os atuais estudos relacionados a objetos de aprendizagem e metadados concentram-se no desenvolvimento e uso destes recursos. Logo, não há pesquisas que relacionem o uso dos metadados como suporte ao planejamento pedagógico. Em face deste cenário, a presente tese investiga como os usuários-professores fazem uso dos metadados no planejamento pedagógico que inclui o uso de objetos de aprendizagem. Ainda, é investigado como os metadados da especificação OBAA auxilia na definição dos requisitos técnicos e pedagógicos, comparado ao Dublin Core e IEEE LOM. Para isto, foi realizada uma pesquisa qualitativa, usando as técnicas de grupo focal e o estudo de casos múltiplos, com a participação de dois tipos de sujeitos: especialistas e usuários professores. A pesquisa com os especialistas foi realizada sob a abordagem do grupo focal não estruturado, onde quatro casos foram analisados e discutidos. Já os usuários-professores participaram dos grupos focais semiestruturado e estruturado. Inicialmente, eles conceitualizaram os termos “recursos didáticos” e “planejamento pedagógico” para então desenvolver planos de aula fazendo uso de objetos de aprendizagem, onde se foi observado como os metadados se fizeram presentes no planejamento. Os resultados obtidos mostraram que a especificação OBAA atende os requisitos técnicos e pedagógicos, embora são propostas algumas modificações. Também foi possível identificar quais metadados realmente auxiliaram os professores no planejamento, destacando os que descrevem o recurso pedagogicamente. Ainda, percebeu-se que a especificação OBAA melhor auxiliou os professores neste processo, e neste sentido, foi proposto um conjunto reduzido de metadados OBAA contemplando os elementos essenciais para a descrição de um objeto de aprendizagem em um repositório e que assista o professor no planejamento.
The teaching-learning process aims to the teachers teach students, in order that they acquire knowledge. However, this process is influenced by several variables: curriculum structure, students background, direction and pedagogical coordination, its community, class duration and lesson planning, resources, etc.. The planning allows the teacher to organize and establish how the classes will occur, and the time necessary to ensure learning. In this process, the teacher makes use of pedagogical resources as mediators. Among the various possibilities of educational resources, are the learning objects. They consist of physical or digital resources, which has the advantage, the use of a set of metadata with information related to the learning object. The metadata files are standardized specifications that follow that guide how they should be described, to allow indexing and retrieval in repositories. Among the specifications for metadata include: the Dublin Core, IEEE LOM and OBAA. The Dublin Core is a specification used by many repositories, however, was developed to describe any resource, and educational or not. The IEEE LOM is considered the most complete specification, and allows the description of physical objects and digital learning. The OBAA a Brazilian proposal is based on the IEEE LOM and has unique features, for example, the description of learning objects and greater detail of multiplatform pedagogical features. The current studies related to learning objects and metadata focus on the development and use of these resources. Thus, there is no research that relate to the use of metadata to support educational planning. Given this scenario, this thesis investigates how users-teachers make use of metadata on educational planning that includes the use of learning objects. In addiction, it is investigated how the metadata specification OBAA assists in defining the technical and pedagogical requirements, compared to the Dublin Core and IEEE LOM. For this, we performed a qualitative study using focus group techniques and the study of multiple cases involving two types of subjects: teacher experts and users. The research was conducted with experts in the focus group approach is not structured, where four cases were analyzed and discussed. The users-teachers participated in semi-structured focus groups and structured. Initially, they conceptualized the term "educational resources" and "lesson planning" and then develop lesson plans using learning objects, which was observed as the metadata were present in the planning. The results showed that the specification meets the technical requirements OBAA and teaching, although some modifications are proposed. It was also possible to identify what metadata really helped the teachers in planning, highlighting that describe the teaching resources. Still, it was realized that the best specification OBAA assisted the teachers in this process, and in this sense, we proposed a reduced set of metadata OBAA contemplating the essential elements for describing a learning object in a repository and to assist the teacher in planning.

Abstract:
This paper sets out to explore to what extent teacher trainees at a university in southern Sweden are influenced by communicative language teaching (CLT) approaches that the Swedish national syllabus for English, LGR 11, advocates. In addition, reliabilities regarding the level of institution (Junior High versus High School) will also be explored. The material consists of 20 lesson plans, two from each student equally split between Junior High and High School. These plans were submitted by the author’s classmates as part of an assignment during their teaching practice. The method for rating the lesson plans in terms of function versus form is based on a chart created by Thornbury (1999), although his chart has been adapted to better suit the methodology of this paper. The results showed that most of the lesson plans favored, to varying degrees, a communicative approach; the most popular one being a mixture of deep-end and shallow-end CLT approaches. Furthermore, the lessons in High school proved to lean slightly more towards deep-end CLT than their counterparts at Junior high.

Abstract:

This qualitative single case study on backward design lesson planning experiences of teachers in a professional learning community focused on gaining a better understanding of collaborative planning of standards-based learning intentions, success criteria, assessments, and activities as performed by four participants meeting daily in one high school content area department. The backward design lesson planning model contains three stages, including development of standards-based learning objectives, learning objective-based assessments, and assessment criteria-based authentic learning activities. The research problem was informed by multiple selections from the body of literature in the field of education on backward design lesson planning, curriculum evaluation frameworks, and suggestions for a need to better understand collaborative planning, backward design curricula, professional development-informed planning and practice, and professional learning community interactions in designing curricula. The purpose of the study was to better understand how teachers develop standards-derived learning intentions, success criteria, assessments, and activities through the backward design lesson planning model. The conceptual framework was constructed from a synthesis of findings from quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods peer-reviewed research reports in the field of curriculum and teaching. Synthesized findings informed the structure and sections of the conceptual framework, supporting the purpose of the research in better understanding connections between components of traditional linear curriculum evaluation, the three stages of backward design, and the need to better understand interactions between professional development practice of new curriculum development initiatives, implementation of new initiatives in professional learning community lesson plan design, and teacher perceptions of planning lessons through the lens of backward design. Through observational field notes and open-ended questionnaires pertaining to the three stages of backward design lesson development, teacher actions observed during professional learning community meetings and experiences noted by teachers on questionnaire forms indicated that teachers utilized their common lesson planning time in deriving learning objectives from content area standards, generating formative assessments for ongoing feedback to inform teaching and learning, generating rubrics for clarity in the relationship between success criteria and the satisfying of learning objectives, and sequencing activities based on ability levels of individual learners so that challenges were scaffolded based on cognitive complexity, with the goal of all students meeting learning objectives. Potential impacts of study results include integration of backward design lesson planning into professional development programs and professional learning community curriculum development programs for alignment, clarity, and congruency between content area department standards, objectives, assessments, and activities. Recommendations for future research informed by minor themes uncovered during the study include a need for further study of teacher perceptions of standards-based grading practices.

Analysis of polling documents indicates how little most Americans know about the world. Geography education is the key to offsetting geographic illiteracy. Fortunately programs designed to improve K-12 geography education are growing in number and strength. How can we teach more and better geography within the school system? Given the dominant role of history in the K-12 social studies curriculum, use of the psychological theory of dual-encoding to integrate geography and history lesson planning is one approach to bring more geography into the classroom. As part of Kansas Geographic Alliance programmatic activity, Kansas history and geography standards, with emphasis on the tested standards, were assessed to identify candidate themes for development of dual-encoded educational units and associated lesson plans. Three workshops were delivered to share these dual-encoded units and lesson plans. The workshops were for education faculty, teachers getting in-service professional development, and for a group of pre-service teachers in a social studies methods class. Attendees at the workshops provided assessment and feedback of the material. Based on informal comments and written responses from the workshop attendees, it is concluded that dual-encoding will enable considerable progress in geography education. Not only will the knowledge provided demonstrate the impact and significance of geography to history teachers and their students, but dual-encoded lessons will advance teacher content and pedagogical knowledge, and most importantly students will learn both geography and history better.

Abstract:

This study focused on how lesson planning takes place at the college level in contrast to how the process takes place in grades K through 12. The study was conducted through a survey and interviews to English professors at the College of General Studies at the University of Puerto Rico in Río Piedras. In order to conduct the research, factors such as academic background, teaching experience, context, age, teaching practices, motivation, and syllabus design were considered.

Data collected showed that planning does take place at the college level, first in the form of a semester-long syllabus and then in daily/weekly lesson plans that include varying degrees of detail. Lesson planning helps improve teacher performance by providing confidence. It improves student learning outcomes by helping them better understand the materials. Both, teachers and students, benefit from the focus and guidance planning provides.

Recommendations include creating teacher training programs in institutions of higher educations to provide the support teachers need to perform at their best and conducting further research in other departments, colleges, or campuses to see how planning takes places outside English courses.

ABSTRACT

This essay concerns Christina Rossetti’s poem Goblin Market and its use in a Swedish upper secondary classroom. The purpose of this essay was to analyse the poem through a Marxist perspective and investigate how both the analysis of the poem and the poem itself could be used when teaching English to an upper secondary class.

This was done in two stages; firstly by analysing the Victorian society’s effect on Rossetti’s poem through a Marxist criticism perspective and secondly by using a specific pedagogic method called the Socratic Dialogue method when analysing the use of the analysis and the poem in the classroom.

When analysing the poem and how it has been affected by its contemporary society, it becomes clear that the poem provides a critique in several ways towards consumerism and social ideals of Victorian Britain. Concerning the use of the poem and the analysis in the upper secondary English classroom it is evident that the poem and the literary analysis combined provides an interesting view on Victorian Britain for the pupils to discuss while having Socratic seminars.

Abstract:
Das Erstellen von Unterrichtsentwürfen wird als Voraussetzung für effektiven, zielgerichteten Unterricht gesehen. Dies gilt insbesondere für angehende Lehrpersonen. Da viele Aspekte, wie z.B. Methoden, Fachinhalte, Standards und die Charakteristik der Lerngruppe, zur gleichen Zeit berücksichtigt und sinnvoll aufeinander abgestimmt werden müssen, handelt es sich um eine kreative und zugleich anspruchsvolle Aufgabe. Es liegt nahe, diesen aufwändigen Prozess der Planung durch spezialisierte Softwaresysteme zu unterstützen, die nicht nur Routineaufgaben erleichtern, sondern auch zur Reflexion anregen. Basierend auf einem Literatur-Review und Interviews mit Dozierenden, die Lehrpersonen ausbilden, werden Anforderungen an Unterrichtsentwürfe analysiert und diskutiert. Es werden dabei nicht nur die relevanten theoretischen Grundlagen betrachtet, sondern ebenfalls das Vorgehen bei der Planung, genutzte Hilfsmittel und besonders unterstützenswerte Aspekte aus der Praxis. Darauf aufbauend werden Anwendungsfälle und Anforderungen an ein Planungsunterstützungssystem systematisch abgeleitet. Existierende Planungssysteme werden vorgestellt und untersucht, wobei viele bereits elementare Anforderungen nicht erfüllen. Insbesondere gibt es kein System, das adaptives Feedback bereitstellt. Um diese Lücke zu schließen, wird eine graphische, zeitbasierte Notation zur Unterrichtsplanung vorgeschlagen. Weiterhin sind ein Ressourcen-Management, Analyse-Möglichkeiten und automatisches Feedback zentrale Bestandteile des Ansatzes. Der entwickelte Prototyp wurde mit über 100 Personen in mehreren Studien systematisch empirisch evaluiert. Im Fokus stand dabei nicht nur die Untersuchung der Gebrauchstauglichkeit des Ansatzes und des Prototyps, sondern auch wie sich die Nutzung des Prototyps auf die Qualität der Unterrichtsentwürfe auswirkt. Es wird aufgezeigt, dass der beschriebene Ansatz für die Planung von Unterricht geeignet ist und angehende Lehrpersonen auch zur Reflexion angeregt hat.
Developing a lesson plan is considered as a prerequisite for effective, targeted instruction. This is particularly true for prospective teachers. Since many aspects such as methods, subject content, standards, and the characteristics of the learner group have to be taken into account and reasonably compiled, it is a creative as well as a demanding task. It stands to reason that this complex process of planning can be supported by specialized software systems that do not only facilitate routine tasks, but also stimulate reflection. Based on a literature-review and interviews with instructors of prospective teachers, requirements for lesson plans are analyzed and discussed. Not only relevant theoretical principles of lesson planning are considered, but also individual planning steps, tools used and practical aspects that would benefit particularly from further support. Building upon this, use cases and requirements for a lesson planning support system are derived systematically. Existing planning systems are presented and analyzed. It is argued that many systems do not meet even basic requirements. Especially there is no system that offers adaptive feedback. In order to fill this gap, a graphical time-based representation is proposed for lesson planning. Further central aspects of this approach are resource management, analysis capabilities and automatic feedback. A software architecture for a planning support system is presented that implements the aforementioned approach and meets the requirements. The developed prototype was empirically evaluated in several systematic studies involving over 100 participants. The focus to study was the usability of the approach and the prototype on the one hand, and how the use of the prototype affects the quality of the lesson plans on the other hand. In this thesis it is shown that the described approach for lesson planning is adequate and suitable to promote reflective thinking about one''s own planning activities.
