Abstract The present investigation aimed to analyze the collaborative making processes and ways of organizing collaboration processes of five student teams. As a part of regular school work, the seventh-grade students were engaged in the use of traditional and digital fabrication technologies for inventing, designing, and making artifacts. To analyze complex, longitudinal collaborative making processes, we developed the visual Making-Process-Rug video analysis method, which enabled tracing intertwined with social-discursive and materially mediated making processes and zoomed in on the teams’ efforts to organize their collaborative processes. The results indicated that four of the five teams were able to take on multifaceted epistemic and fabrication-related challenges and come up with novel co-inventions. The successful teams’ social-discursive and embodied making actions supported each another. These teams dealt with the complexity of invention challenges by spending a great deal of their time in model making and digital experimentation, and their making process progressed iteratively. The development of adequate co-invention and well-organized collaboration processes appeared to be anchored in the team’s shared epistemic object.

Using Data

The purpose of the article is to introduce a systematic, three-level video analysis method for tracing the emotional aspects of a collaborative design and making process. Maker-centred learning can evoke strong emotions affecting students’ motivation because it involves them in externalising their ideas through conceptual, visual and material artefacts. For analysing longitudinal collaborative processes, we developed the visual Making-Process-Rug video analysis method, which enables tracing materially mediated verbal and embodied making processes. We provide examples of the method using data, where a team of seventh-grade students performing regular schoolwork were engaged in using traditional and digital fabrication technologies for inventing, designing, and making artefacts. Taking a case study perspective, we focus on a team of four students who worked on a smart product project. We analysed video recordings from the team’s 11 hours of design and making sessions on three levels: macro, intermediate and micro. The benefit of the three-level method is that it allows simultaneous analysis of social-discursive and materially embodied aspects of activities. It also enables analysing large samples of video data systematically, and focusing on both micro-level and macro-level perspectives of activity. The method for identifying emotions from video data has potential for educational research on various fields, however, the culture-specific expressions and interpretations of emotions require special attention when developing the method further.

<p>The purpose of this study was to analyze the availability and usability of aids for dyslexia according to the experiences of people with dyslexia. This was a qualitative study in which people with dyslexia were asked to participate by filling out a qualitative survey. The analysis followed the principles of qualitative content analysis method. Participants (N=11) were 15-65-year-old Finnish people with diagnosed dyslexia who use aids for dyslexia regularly. The purpose of this study was to answer the following research questions: (1) How do the people with dyslexia describe the importance of the aids for dyslexia in their everyday life and learning?; (2) Which aids for dyslexia do the people with dyslexia consider the most usable and beneficial?; and (3) What challenges have the people with dyslexia faced when using aids for dyslexia? According to the findings, aids for dyslexia were considered irreplaceably important and supported everyday life in numerous ways. The participants reported that they used aids in many areas of life, such as in school, work, and leisure. The most usable aids were computers (especially word processing soft wares), tablets, and smart phones. Most of the participants had used one or more of them. The biggest challenges were the expensiveness of aids and difficulties in learning to use aids. As the knowledge about dyslexia and number of diagnoses increase, new studies on the possible aids and their developmental needs are required. Versatile aids can provide personal help and support the coping of people with dyslexia in many areas of life. Furthermore, the study showed that, based on the participants’ experiences, more attention should be paid on the product development of aids for dyslexia in the future.</p>

The Individual

Bronchial asthma is a chronic pulmonary disorder, frequently allergic in nature, and characterized by paroxysms of dyspnea, wheezing, tightness in the chest, and bronchospasm. Asthmatic attacks may be minor and short in duration with little discomfort, or they may be very severe and of long duration, producing the characteristic picture of intractability. During symptomatic periods, it is usually possible to demonstrate changes in certain aspects of pulmonary function. With mild symptoms or between the episodes of severe asthma, the individual may be at little or no disadvantage in any or all activities. However, when the symptoms of pulmonary distress become severe or prolonged, this may lead to interruption of the child's daily routine, including school attendance. Occasionally, such children may become home or hospital bound for long periods of time. Between the two extremes of no symptoms and severe asthma, there is a spectrum of respiratory or pulmonary disability—the nature and severity of which requires that each child receive individual consideration and evaluation in the matter of his daily activity. The outlooks for the control of asthma in children has been improving during the past several decades. However, with the increase in population, there is an increasing number of children who require medical management for this disorder. It is a leading medical cause for school absenteeism and probably contributes to inefficient school work because of chronic fatigue, irritability, decreased attention span, and secondary emotional disorders. There is general agreement among physicians that most children with bronchial asthma should attend regular school since, when under proper control and with no residual pulmonary defect the child needs no special facilities.

This study deals with the applications of Student Teams Achievement Division (STAD)method on students’ achievement in writing descriptive text. The objective of the study wasto find out whether STAD method significantly effected the students’ achievement in writingdescriptive text. This study was conducted to 2012/2013 the seventh grade of SMP N.1 SeiRampah, which consisted of 320 students in eight classes. Fourty students were taken as thesample by using purposive sampling. The sample was divided into two groups. The firstgroup was experimental group, it was taught by applying STAD method in writingdescriptive text, while the second group was control group, that was taught without applyingSTAD method. The instrument that was used in this study was a test. Those test wereconsisted of two test, pre test and post test. The result showed that the realibility of the testwas 0,99. Then, after analyzing the data it was found that the value of t-observed was 3,085with the degree of freedom (df) 38 at the level of significance p(0,05) = 2,002. It means thatt-observed is higher than t-table (3,085 > 2,002). Based on the result, Ha was accepted. Itmeans that STAD method has a significant effect on students’ achievement in writingdescriptive text.

This research aimed at explaining the use of Glass’ Analysis Method in improving the students’ pronunciation in speaking at the seventh grade students of SMP Negeri 1 Salomekko Kab. Bone. The researcher used pre-experimental design with one group pretest and posttest design. The population was the seventh grade students of SMP Negeri 1 Salomekko Kab. Bone., in academic year 2017/2018, which consisted of six classes. The sample was taken by purposive sampling technique and the total number of sample was 26 students. It conducted in six meetings. It was administered speaking test as instrument. The findings of the data indicated that there was significant difference between students’ post-test and pre-test.  The mean score in post-test (8.10) was greater than the mean score in pre-test (5.42). From t-test, the researcher found that the value of t-test (8.61) was greater than t-table (2.060) at the level of significance 0.05 with degree of freedom (df) = 25. Thus, the alternative hypothesis (H1) was accepted and the null hypothesis (H0) was rejected. It means that there was a significant difference in the students’ pronunciation in speaking before and after being taught by using Glass’ Analysis Method
