A shared research object between teachers and researchers in Developmental Work Research (DWR) aims at development of teaching practices and forming of subject-specific knowledge. Currently, design experiments, action research, and formative interventions are used in educational research. A multitude of approaches show an overarching interest in developing teaching and learning practices. Action research and formative interventions include and empower teachers. However, in many DWR projects, teachers and researchers have different objects. In a tradition where teachers are regarded as learners, a shared research object is of interest. This chapter problematizes the relationship between teachers and researchers with the help of three DWR projects. It is challenging to establish a DWR project in which teachers and researchers aim at realising the same object. However, when this is a case, such projects may contribute to new knowledge that enhances student learning and educational, clinical, and subject-matter research.

The Relationship

This article explores the relationship between how popular musicians learn and how they subsequently teach, and considers the extent to which they incorporate their own informal learning practices into their work as teachers. A group of eight UK teachers was recruited and data collection, involving interviews and lesson observations, took place between January 2006 and December 2008. Findings are reported here in relation to two teachers in particular, whose learning histories were similar but whose teaching practices were very different. The ways they valued the results of their informal learning practices seemed to determine the extent to which they sought to replicate them in their teaching. There is evidence for the significance of learning histories, and implications for training and professional development.

This study aims to determine the increase in student learning outcomes after using the Contextual Teaching and Learning learning model. Based on student learning outcomes in the previous school year, it was seen that the learning outcomes were low, especially on Mawaris material. Therefore, the authors conducted classroom action research by changing the learning model that previously used lectures and discussions into Contextual Teaching and Learning. CTL (Contextual Teaching and Learning) learning is a learning concept that emphasizes the relationship between learning materials and the real world of students' lives, so that students are able to connect and apply learning outcomes competencies in everyday life. This study uses two cycles of action research consisting of four steps, namely: planning, implementing, observing and reflecting. The subjects of this study were students of class XII.IPA.1 for the academic year 2020/2021. Data were obtained from formative test results, activity observation sheets, and interview sheets. From the results of the analysis, it was found that the learning outcomes of Mawaris material increased from 69.23% in cycle 1 to 92.30% in cycle 2. The conclusion of this study is that Contextual Teaching and Learning learning can improve student learning outcomes. ABSTRAKPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui peningkatan hasil belajar siswa setelah penggunaan model pembelajaran Contextual Teaching and Learning. Berdasarkan hasil belajar siswa pada tahun pelajaran sebelumnya terlihat rendahnya hasil belajar terutama pada materi Mawaris. Oleh karena itu penulis melakukan penelitian tindakan kelas dengan mengganti model pembelajaran yang tadinya menggunakan ceramah dan diskusi menjadi Pembelajaran Contextual Teaching and Learning. Pembelajaran CTL (Contextual Teaching and Learning) merupakan konsep pembelajaran yang menekankan pada keterkaitan antara materi pembelajaran dengan dunia kehidupan siswa secara nyata, sehingga siswa mampu menghubungkan dan menerapkan kompetensi hasil belajar dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Penelitian ini menggunakan penelitian tindakan sebanyak dua siklus yang terdiri dari empat langkah yaitu: perencanaan, pelaksanaan, pengamatan dan refleksi. Subjek penelitian ini adalah siswa kelas XII.IPA.1 tahun pelajaran 2020/2021. Data diperoleh dari hasil tes formatif, lembar observasi kegiatan, dan lembar wawancara. Dari hasil analisis didapatkan bahwa hasil belajar materi mawaris mengalami peningkatan ketuntasan belajar dari 69,23% pada siklus 1 menjadi 92,30% pada siklus 2. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah bahwa pembelajaran Contextual Teaching and Learning dapat meningkatkan hasil belajar siswa.

AbstractThe appearance of tablet technology in the classroom is considered an obvious modernisation milestone. In the last few years school professionals in Poland have made large investments in digitalisation, especially through one to one model (1:1), using digital devices such as tablets. Researches on tablet technology integration in school classrooms convince that digital technologies are closely related to the discourse of educational change. What really changes when digital technology is used in the classroom? This is a driving question for the present study. This research contributes knowledge and new insights into learning and teaching practices in two classrooms in a Polish primary school that were observed over a longer perspective of three school semesters. The design of teaching and learning with tablet technology was explored using the didactical design framework. This perspective focuses on both teachers’ practices and students’ learning activities in the classroom and how tablet technology is integrated into teaching and learning practices. Although the research project was performed on a small scale, it can be defined as one that documents the changes to learning and teaching practices happening in the traditional educational culture of the school under analysis. These changes were identified through the data collected by means of classroom video ethnography (63 teaching hours of recording) and follow-up interviews (18) with classroom’s teachers. The analysis resulted in three distinct maps of emergent teaching and learning practices and a series of conflicts and tensions teachers experience in their everyday tablet-mediated teaching practices. The findings point out that tablet technology integration needs the alignment of the classroom pedagogy - technology relationships.

Background and objective: One of the important goals of nursing education is to motivate nurses to acquire skills for providing proper quality of health care services to clients with various complex health problems. Accomplishing this has challenged educational organizations for long years. The aim of the present study is to identify the relationship between Learner-Centered Teaching and learning motivation among Nursing Students in Minia University.Methods: A quantitative-correlational research design was utilized in the present study. The study sample comprised all fourth-year nursing students who were available at the time of data collection (N = 168). For the assessment of Learner-Centered Teaching Practices and learning motivation, a questionnaire developed by Rossi (2009) was used for data collection.Results: The study participants reported their highest mean scores about learner-centered teaching practices with three domains as follows: facilitates the learning process, provides for individual and social learning needs, and establishes positive interpersonal relationships. Also, they expressed highest mean scores about learning motivation with intrinsic motivation factors. Additionally, the study findings presented high statistical significant difference and fair positive relationship between all subscales of learner-centered teaching practices and intrinsic motivation factors (p value = .001).Conclusions: Nursing curriculum should include learner as active contributors in the learning process. When nurse educators give a lecture and encourage students to interact actively with ideas, and information after the lecture, this will motivate students to be an active learner, as well as, inspire innovative thinking and creativity of the students.

AbstractSeveral changes and challenges affect contemporary society: public administration, business, society at large. The lowest common denominator is digitization through IT tools. And what about school systems? Do they play a decisive role in enabling the skills needed to these challenges? We send our children to school to prepare them for a fast-changing world. But have our schools (and teachers) changed in the last 100 years? Modern teachers are being asked to change their teaching and learning practices, and to implement methodologies (including the use of IT tools) and make way for new teaching practices.

Lately, the debates on teaching-practices in the online mode have given grounds to ask a fundamental question, does pedagogy really matter? For educationists, it surely does. But, what idea of pedagogy prevails upon the pedagogues, the teachers, techno-managerial professors, particularly in the higher education? This article rummages through the contemporary milieu that solicits debate on the idea of pedagogy, by and large marginal in the teaching practices in higher education. The structural academic Brahmanism of the ‘old normal’ has been melodramatically palpable in the time of ‘new normal’ too. In the academic years during the COVID-19 pandemic, a phenomenology of teaching practices occasions a polemical realization about limits and possibilities of pedagogy.

Research on technology integration in school classrooms convinces that digital technologies are closely related to the discourse of educational change. What really changes when digital technology is used in the classroom? This is the driving question for the present study. This research contributes knowledge on learning and teaching practices in 19 early education classrooms observed over two school semesters. The design of teaching and learning with tablet technology was explored using the didactical design framework. This perspective focuses on both teachers’ practices and students’ learning activities in the classroom and how tablet technology is integrated into teaching and learning practices. Although the research project was performed on a small scale, it can be defined as one that documents the changes to learning and teaching practices happening in the traditional educational culture of the schools under analysis. These changes were identified through the data collected by means of structured classroom observation (283 teaching hours) and interviews with classroom teachers. The analysis resulted in three distinct sets of emergent teaching and learning practices and a series of conflicts and tensions teachers experience in their everyday tablet-mediated teaching practices.

Résumé : Cet article décrit les pratiques et les conceptions de huit enseignants du primaire qui se situent à divers stades du processus d’implantation des TIC. Les résultats, issus d’entretiens et d’observations, montrent que les enseignants qualifiés d’expérimentateurs, qui se situent au niveau inférieur d’utilisation des TIC, ont des conceptions et des pratiques plutôt béhavioristes. Les enseignants collaborateurs ou adaptateurs, qui se situent à des niveaux supérieurs du processus d’implantation des TIC, ont des pratiques plutôt variées et affichent plus de conceptions constructivistes que les enseignants expérimentateurs. La discussion analyse les liens entre les conceptions affichées par les enseignants et les usages des TIC. Teaching practices and elementary school teacher’s concepts of teaching and learning at different levels of integration of ICTs Abstract: This article describes both practices and concepts of eight elementary school teachers who are at different stages of implementation of ICT in their practice. The results, taken from interviews and observation, indicate that teachers, identified as “experimenters” and who tend to use ICT less, adopt concepts and practices that lean towards behaviourism. Teachers identified as “collaborators” or “adaptors” and who are at higher levels of integration of ICTs tend to have practices that are more varied and show evidence of internal representations leaning more towards constructivism. The discussion further analyzes the relationship between the concepts that are evoked by the teachers and their uses of ICTs.
