The purpose of this study was to investigate to what extent constructivist classroom
characteristics existed in ELT Methodology II courses in ELT departments. Secondly, the
aim was to explore the extent to which constructivist learning activities and evaluation
strategies were perceived to be useful by the students and the instructors. Thirdly, the
study also attempted to find out the extent to which the students and the instructors in
ELT departments had constructivist conceptions of learning and teaching. Finally, it was
aimed to find out whether students&rsquoperception of constructivist classroom characteristics differed according to certain variables such as university, sex, type of high school the students graduated from, expected average score in the course and perceived competency in English. Subjects of the study involved 410 students taking ELT Methodology II course (Ö

sretim Yö
ntemleri II) during 2001-2002 academic year in ELT departments of four universities (Middle East Technical University, Gazi University, Ç
ukurova University and Dicle University) and 15 instructors teaching this course at these universities. Data were collected between May &ndash
July 2002 through administration of a questionnaire (Constructivist Classroom Characteristics Questionnaire) to the students, interviews with the students and the instructors and observation of students&rsquo
microteaching practices in ELT Methodology II classes. Data analysis was carried out through both quantitative (frequencies, means, standard deviations, one-way ANOVA) and qualitative analysis techniques. The results of the study indicated that majority of the students and the instructors perceived the classroom characteristics to be constructivist although there were a few differences in their perceptions. Observations of microteaching also showed that classroom characteristics were constructivist with respect to the variety of the learning activities used by the students, feedback procedures in the classroom and negotiation and cooperation among the students. Secondly, both the students and the instructors perceived constructivist learning activities and evaluation strategies to be more useful compared to the traditional ones. Thirdly, majority of the students and the instructors held either cognitivist or constructivist conceptions of learning. On the other hand, the students were behaviorist in their conceptions of teaching while the instructors were constructivist. Finally, the results indicated that perception of constructivist classroom characteristics differed according to universities, expected average score and perceived competency in English whereas it did not differ according to student sex and the type of high schools the students graduated from. The results revealed that the learning activities, evaluation strategies, students&rsquo
learning experiences and instructors&rsquo
roles in the classroom should be reconsidered and improved in order to make ELT Methodology II classes more constructivist in nature.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of constructivist methods on student learning in an undergraduate art appreciation class. Three constructivist learning activities were designed and implemented in an undergraduate art appreciation course for non-art majors at Mississippi College. Through these constructivist learning activities, students were involved in their learning throughout the semester in realistic art roles in which they worked as curators, Web page designers, and artists. Six subjects were selected to participate in this case study. Subject data was collected through three methods: interviews with subjects at three points during the semester, student documents produced during the three activities, and a field journal of observations made during the activities. The multiple data sources were triangulated to reveal nine patterns of learning. The data evidence that constructivism results in a deeper understanding of art and art processes than in a typical art appreciation course in which learners are merely passive recipients of knowledge. This was not only indicated by the nine patterns of learning which emerged from the data, but also in the students' awareness and regulating of their cognitive processes. Although the research provided an in-depth understanding of this case and should not represent or be generalized to the entire population of art appreciation students, the results of this study suggest that art appreciation instructors have an opportunity to facilitate high levels of student thinking and encourage metacognitive skills through constructivist methods such as the ones used in this study.

Why did we ever purchase computers and place them along the wall or in the corner of a classroom? Why did we ever ask students to work individually at a computer? Why did we ever dictate that students should play computer games or answer questions built from a narrow data set? And why are we still doing this with computers in classrooms today?
This approach has contributed to a systemic problem of low student engagement in course materials and little inclusion of student voice, particularly for traditionally underrepresented students. New transformational tools and pedagogies are needed to nurture students in developing their own ways of thinking, posing problems, collaborating, and solving problems. Of interest, then, is the predominance in today’s classrooms of programmed learning and teaching machines that we dub 21st century learning. We have not yet fully harnessed the transformational power and potential of the technology that schools already possess and that many students are bringing on their own.
This dissertation aims to address what is missing in best practices of technology in the classroom. Herein these pages will be performed a document analysis of cornerstone books written by John Dewey, Paulo Freire, and Seymour Papert. This analysis will be in the form of annotations comprised of the author’s experience as an experienced educator and researcher, and founded in the extant relevant theories of critical theory, technology, and constructivism. The three philosophers were selected for their contributions to constructivism and their urgings to liberate the student from an oppressive system. With a different approach to educational technology, students could be working towards something greater than themselves or the coursework, something with a passionate purpose derived from student inquiry. Instead of working at the computer and having a “one and done” experience, students could be actively transforming their studies and their world. And instead of reifying existing social and racial inequities outside of the classroom through the large computer purchases and the dominant culture attitudes and beliefs found in many software products and databases, we could be examining our practices and programs with a critical lens that allows us to question and seek more inclusive community strategies.
The final chapter is about asking for, pushing for, and dreaming for new kinds of schools, classrooms, software, hardware, and new ways to think about and create new opportunities for students. Mixed reality, sometimes called augmented reality, is likely the anticipated future of computers in the classroom.
We need to, very deeply and purposefully, mix up electronics with people. We are in a new era with new understandings of old issues showing up in old problems. A unified learning theory for computers, computing, and digital learning environments could help to redefine classroom spaces and class time, as well as graduation outcomes. The revolution will indeed be live on the Internet, but it will also be remixed and recreated by students organically and authentically pursuing their own truth.

At the center of all coach education initiatives and programming is the coach. Although the study of traditional coach education programs has yielded rather discouraging findings, coach education can be significant in its contribution to coach development when coaches are addressed as learners and their unique learning needs and orientations are recognized and prioritized. Indeed, the conversation has shifted to the application of learner-centered (LC) approaches. The purpose of this doctoral dissertation was twofold: to explore the contribution of using the LC theory, including a well-established learner-centered teaching (LCT) framework, to support coach education; and to examine the LC initiatives of a coach education program. An immersion in the LC literature was followed by the collection of multiple sources of data: program documents (n = 5), coach survey data, in-depth participant interviews (coach development administrators, n = 14; learning facilitators, n = 6; coaches, n = 10), and audio-visual material. Program documents (449 pages) were analyzed using a summative content analysis (Hsieh & Shannon, 2005) based on Blumberg’s (2009) LCT framework, and the interview transcripts (521 single-spaced pages) were analyzed using thematic analysis (Braun, Clarke, & Weate, 2016). The findings are presented in three articles and an additional findings section. The first article presents a theoretical overview of the LC literature linked to current perspectives and issues in coach education, including validated framework for facilitating LC change and assessment. The second article looks at the evolution and current LC status of Canada’s golf coach education program, a distinguished program within the Canadian sport system. The third article, using composite vignettes, presents the coaches’ and learning facilitators’ perception of their experiences participating in the LC designed program. In the additional findings, the CDAs’ biographies and perceptions of their experiences participating and contributing to the design of the program are presented along with the challenges they faced. The main points from the findings in this dissertation are as follows: (a) given the strong conceptual links and evidence-based foundation, LCT offers a coherent and sensible framework to guide the study and design of coach education; (b) there were lessons to be learned when looking at the history and evolution of the coach education program; (c) the creation and implementation of LC program benefitted from leaders who understood and subscribed to a constructivist view of learning; (d) the LCT approaches were dependent on the role and effectiveness of the learning facilitators; (e) coaches’ and facilitators’ perceptions of LCT approaches and engagement in the program varied according to their cognitive structures, specifically their learning orientation; and (f) more broadly, the program’s impact and effectiveness was influenced by the dynamic and complex interplay between the program design, delivery, and coach engagement. The findings contribute to the emerging body of literature on the use of constructivist learning principles to support coach education; they provide scholars and practitioners with a robust framework to guide the study, design, delivery, and assessment of LC coach education; and they share the exemplary efforts, experiences, and challenges of a sport federation who successfully adopted a high degree of LCT within its coach education program. Finally, based on the findings and the coach education and LC literatures, a fourth article is presented in the discussion that offers a collection of practical recommendations for CDAs to support LC coach education.

Over the past two decades, constructivism has become an increasingly influential referent for the learning and teaching of science in schools. In the role of teacher-researcher, I conducted an intensive participant observational study in an innovative Australian middle school, where both the initial planning of the school program and the principal's vision for the school took constructivism as a key referent. The research activity involved team teaching for a total of two days per week for one school year (1996) with a group of five teachers who were attempting to implement constructivist-referenced innovations such as portfolio assessment, integrated curriculum and teacher collaborative planning in their teaching practice. I chose a narrative methodology including impressionist tales to both conduct and represent this research into my own and others' teaching practices and values - a 'novel' woven from those narratives forms Section Two of this thesis. In addition, five conjectures for further investigation emerged from the research: (1) one significant constraint to constructivist-referenced innovation is 'conceptual inertia' on the part of teachers, (2) students' epistemologies and expectations must be explicitly addressed where innovation is attempted, (3) the complexity of educational contexts extends beyond the mechanical details of schooling to the webs of expectations stakeholders bring to schools, (4) it is difficult for teachers with limited backgrounds in science to use constructivism as a referent in their science teaching, and (5) the narrative methodology chosen has value in providing a rich, complex account of schools, teachers and curricular innovations.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
The purpose of this study was to ascertain pre-service teachers' perceptions of the defining aspects of a mathematics methods course that aided in the development of a conceptual understanding of mathematics. These perceptions emerge from the narratives of four pre-service teachers in a mid-size metropolitan university in the southeastern part of the United States. Grounded in the theory of constructivism this study focuses on the educational experiences of pre-service teachers, as reported by pre-service teachers, creating a portrait of their journey. These pre-service teachers' learning experiences were based on national standards with a constructivist instructional approach and included field experience in a school environment. Analysis of the data revealed that pre-service teachers attributed their increase in conceptual understanding of mathematics to 'touching/doing activities' that required them to 'explain why'. Use of models and manipulatives aided in helping the pre-service teachers verify and justify their solutions to others, providing concrete items to use in explaining abstract concepts. Ultimately, requiring pre-service to explain their own thought processes, with and without manipulatives, aided them in developing a conceptual understanding of mathematics.

A reliance on a teacher-centered model of instruction presented the foundation for my research. I chose to investigate constructivist theory and to implement constructivist teaching practices within my art education classroom to determine if constructivist teaching practices would facilitate a shift to a more student-centered learning environment, and to determine if constructivist strategies positively impact student learning. I collected my raw data using autoethnographic recording, documenting my results over a two month period in January and February of 2007 from my experiences as an art educator at a public, Metro-Atlanta elementary school. A positive impact on student learning was observed and the constructivist teaching strategies did produce student-centered learning environments. Based on my experiences constructivist teaching strategies may be beneficial to the creation of student-centered learning environments and assist in broadening student inquiry and investment with lessons.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
The purpose of this study is to examine pragmatist constructivism as a science education referent for adult learners. Specifically, this study seeks to determine whether George Herbert Mead?s doctrine, which conflates pragmatist learning theory and philosophy of natural science, might facilitate (a) scientific concept acquisition, (b) learning scientific methods, and (c) preparation of learners for careers in science and science-related areas. A philosophical examination of Mead?s doctrine in light of these three criteria has determined that pragmatist constructivism is not a viable science education referent for adult learners. Mead?s pragmatist constructivism does not portray scientific knowledge or scientific methods as they are understood by practicing scientists themselves, that is, according to scientific realism. Thus, employment of Mead?s doctrine does not adequately prepare future practitioners for careers in science-related areas. Mead?s metaphysics does not allow him to commit to the existence of the unobservable objects of science such as molecular cellulose or mosquito-borne malarial parasites. Mead?s anti-realist metaphysics also affects his conception of scientific methods. Because Mead does not commit existentially to the unobservable objects of realist science, Mead?s science does not seek to determine what causal role if any the hypothetical objects that scientists routinely posit while theorizing might play in observable phenomena. Instead, constructivist pragmatism promotes subjective epistemology and instrumental methods. The implication for learning science is that students are encouraged to derive scientific concepts based on a combination of personal experience and personal meaningfulness. Contrary to pragmatist constructivism, however, scientific concepts do not arise inductively from subjective experience driven by consummatory activity. The broader implication of this study for adult education is that the philosophically laden claims of constructivist learning theories need to be identified and assessed independently of any empirical support that these learning theories might enjoy. This in turn calls for educational experiences for graduate students of education that incorporate philosophical understanding such that future educators might be able to recognize and weigh the philosophically laden claims of adult learning theories.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
This report describes the development, deployment, and analysis of an experimental instructional unit using applied constructivism instructional design (ID). The ID template was used to integrate a high-fidelity simulator into an undergraduate health care degree curriculum in a private, not-for-profit university. A switching-replications experimental design was used with random assignment of volunteer participants to initial treatment and control groups. Quantitative analysis of learning outcomes using standardized assessments was performed, including correlational analysis for knowledge transfer of simulator skills to clinical skills. Statistically significant positive effects were found for the educational outcomes of participants when measuring both the knowledge and application of heart anatomical structures and views for examination of the heart with ultrasound. Mild positive correlations were found between performance on the simulator and performance in an actual clinical setting, with limited predictive value between the two. The switching-replications experimental design helped to control for potentially strong social effects that could have endangered internal validity and to maximize the data available for analysis. Many of the constructivist-based ID features of the educational unit resulted in positive feedback and participation from participants. However, cautionary findings relating to the ID features included the need to carefully evaluate their use, as there was a tendency for participants to not value the performance of certain features if they were not going to be graded, despite their likely educational benefit. Future research suggested includes repetition across similar institutions with disparate student populations, and use of the educational unit ID template to implement simulation technology in other educational realms. Other possibilities include determining the effects on learning outcomes of a more-realistic user interface (UI) design and/or increased realism (difficulty) in the simulation itself. Related qualitative-based research could include structured interviews to determine participant satisfaction and learning outlooks, and investigation of the learners’ thoughts and perceptions as they use actual ultrasound machines after practicing on the simulator through think-aloud and active interview techniques.

Literacy in mathematics is an important topic in education, and one that is still poorly understood. This thesis is a comprehensive report on the teaching and learning of mathematics through the literacy lens, leading to the development of a model to guide the teaching and learning of literacy in mathematics. The research has practical implications, particularly for mathematics education courses in preservice primary teacher education programs. The study is particularly important due to the unique demands of literacy in mathematics, a key element of the content of mathematics.

This study, through the lens of Activity Theory, focused on the induction and constructivist teaching practices of experienced teachers who were recently hired in a technologically advantaged middle school. Activity Theory was used not only to examine the induction practices but also to focus on constructivist practices with technology. Data sources consisted of using various instruments three of which were used for surveys, 11 interviews were employed to assess goals, and 18 classroom observations were carried out regarding constructivist practices. Findings through Cultural-Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) analysis revealed under-realized forms of mediation to achieve effective use of ICTs (objective) and the perceptions of collaboration among the teaching staff, specifically with respect to relationships between rules and the division of labor. In effect, this study presents a challenge for CHAT analysis to elaborate the construct of contradictions to include "latent contradictions" which is essential to an expansive learning cycle.

This study is a response to the need to support literacy development in an increasingly diverse and complex culture. Some school boards have identified early literacy as a priority for school improvement and there has been much debate about what constitutes effective literacy instruction. The Quebec Education Program (2001) recommends adopting a constructivist approach that embeds literacy instruction within interdisciplinary learning situations. Some teachers ask what a constructivist classroom looks like in practice. In light of teacher and school board concerns this study examines the literacy practices of a grade two/three elementary teacher in order to address the question, how does literacy learning occur within an espoused constructivist classroom? Besides describing the literacy events themselves, the role of context and the teacher in the literacy learning are examined.Using a qualitative research methodology, the dynamic interactions between and amongst teacher and students were documented. Participant observation utilized photographs, audio and video taped lessons, semi-formal interviews as well as student work and teacher materials to provide a rich description of classroom practice. The researcher used both categorizing and contextualizing strategies to complement each other in a rigorous and systematic analytical process. Visual research methodology augmented the richness of the study.
The researcher discovered four major steps in a dance between teacher and students that developed literacy skills in a caring environment by nurturing self-esteem and self-regulation in learners. The teacher designed a peer tutoring program with first grade students in which literacy skills instruction was embedded within an authentic context that responded to second language learners with learning challenges. The teacher's roles as director, philosopher, enabler and connector were explored and a mirror image of students and teacher were provided through a narrative tracing of three focus students.
Besides describing the literacy practices of the teacher, this study uncovered a spiritual dimension of the teacher's role in that she began from the sacred space of teaching from the heart. Using gentle judgment and praise she built self-esteem by reflecting back to her students an image of competent, intelligent, human beings. Her spiritual epistemology enabled her to create a harmonious balance of responsible freedom within a flexibly structured environment. The spiritual dimension that emerged through the study suggests that research of literacy practices needs to include an examination of the role of the teacher in developing students' identities as self-confident members of a literacy community.

This report presents a feasibility study of operating constructivism in Chinese music education. Major problems have been discussed in each chapter, including the historical background of music education in China, and a philosophical rethinking of current situations in China. Questions have arisen: what is constructivism? Why would it be a new changing point for Chinese music education? What needs to be done to apply constructivism in China? China has a strong background of behavior-focused education. Because of that, music education falls into a teacher directed model, and often loses its impact in public schools for students. But as the development of economy in a worldwide context and a collaboration of multi-cultural environments, music should be recognized as an important role for promoting active learning and cultural understanding. Therefore, music educators in China need to start exploring in new directions for development of music education. Constructivism, as a learning theory provides an understanding of how students learn. Based on constructivism, students would develop their own understanding of knowledge, and build their independent learning skills. Constructivism presents how students truly learn, and it could lead to a new paradigm of music education in China.

This research is intended for educational policy makers. This is an exploratory study that investigates Quebec's classrooms as a new educational reform is implemented. There are two relevant pieces of legislation in the reform that elicited this study. First, teachers are required to adopt constructivist teaching practices; second, teachers must use ICT in classrooms. The questions being addressed are: (1) What are the current challenges and benefits impacting teachers with the integration of computers in the classroom environment? (2) What do classroom practices look like given (a) in the context of Quebec's constructivist-learning environment and (b) the possibility of ICT support. Case studies with teachers from elementary and high schools show changes in teacher and student role; however, lack of guidelines hinder constructivist teaching practices. Five predominant challenges were identified: lack of personal development, lack of time, technical support, accessibility, and classroom management. The study also identifies five elements as benefits: sharing of information; communication; editing; monitoring; web access.

This study comprises three parts. First, to validate the Oral Individualized Classroom Environment Questionnaire (OICEQ) which is used to assess students perceptions of the learning environment in secondary chemistry classes in the U.S.A. The OICEQ is a modified version of the actual and preferred versions of the Individualized Classroom Environment Questionnaire (ICEQ) (Fraser, 1990). Second, to investigate associations between three types of science educational assessments; predictors of performance, perceptions of the classroom environment, and chemistry academic performance. Third, to address the following two questions:1. Are chaos and constructivism allies of adversaries to assessments (predictors, perceptions, and performance)?2. Is action research a valid process of evaluating a constructivist chemistry classroom (examining associations between chaos and constructivism)?A sample of 473 students from 21 chemistry classes took the Test of Logical Thinking (TOLT), the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), the Individualized Classroom Environment Questionnaire (OICEQ), pretests, post-tests, and final examinations. The statistical analyses confirmed the reliability and validity of the OICEQ and ICEQ when used with senior chemistry students. Investigation of associations between predictors, perceptions, and performances revealed 29 significant associations with OICEQ and 21 significant associations with the ICEQ. Findings from the study indicated that: (1) chaos is an adversary to social assessment and personal constructivism is an ally to personal assessment; (2) action research is a valid process for evaluating a constructivist chemistry classroom it is a unifying concept for constructivism, chaos, and assessment; (3) through an action research-constructivist process and a cyberchaos research perspective, the impact of a constructivist teaching paradigm and chaos distort the assessment of data in a chemistry classroom.

Educational technologies are increasingly integrated into higher education, in the form of distance online education for instance. This is an example of how globalization reconfigures education (Carnoy & Rothen, 2000, as cited in Peters, Besley, & Besley, 2006, pp.50). However, the development of online distance education is not without challenges, including the lack of sense of belonging and the feeling of isolation among students, leading to dropouts. Even if there is no deterministic effect of online environments on social interactions, being online undoubtedly reshapes social behaviors. These issues are addressed in this study by examining social presence, defined as the sense of being there with others in a mediated environment (Heeter, 1992), taking an online distance course on Global Education Development in Finland as a study-case. The research aims to analyze how social presence is performed and negotiated through educational technologies. It is grounded in social constructivism to circumvent determinism that prevails in many research works on social presence and educational technologies. Social constructivism brings out human agency while recognizing the effect of the “socio-historical norms, values, beliefs, and perspectives that individuals bring into online learning environments” on the way educational technologies are used and social presence performed (Öztok, 2016, as cited in Öztok, 2013, pp.1). This research pursues a qualitative comparative methodology complemented with basic descriptive statistics. It draws from multiple data sources as it analyzes observations of interactions, survey questionnaires, course material, learning diaries, and six semi-structured interviews with students. The findings explore three dimensions of social presence: subjective, physical, and collective presence. They reveal that broader academic norms, more than educational technologies themselves, shape the representations of subjective presence. The results also verify that text-based online discussions provide more space for students to participate in discussions than webinars using online video-based technologies, but are also paradoxically negatively perceived by students. The analysis of collective presence demonstrates that it emerges from a shared group identity among students and instructors, rather than from sharing sensory inputs, developing interpersonal relations, or sharing personal background information at a group level.

A sequential exploratory design (Creswell, 2003) was used to measure how a social-constructivist oriented educational psychology course could move beyond the inert knowledge Mandl, Gruber, and Renkl (1996) reported to be the outcome of student teacher engagement with formal university courses. Biggs' 3P model (Biggs, & Moore, 1993) provided the framework for qualitatively categorizing 26 student teachers' (16 female, 10 male) conceptions of meaningful learning, and allocations of responsibility for learning. Categories were tested for independence and subsequently predicted learning outcomes as identified by Bloom's revised taxonomy (Anderson, & Krathwohl, 2001). All students held qualitative conceptions of learning. Participants who attributed responsibility to both the professor and students understood and applied course content more than those who attributed responsibility to either solely the professor or student on measures of understanding and application. Results lend support for Biggs' 3P model of classroom systems.

Abstract This research thesis aimed to deepen understanding about the nature of technology and its possible correspondence to the constructivist notion of learning. Since technology education is a relatively new subject area in general education and still in an emerging phase in various countries, it provided some interesting opportunities to take into account the latest developments in educational psychology in relation to the development of teaching technology. Moreover, this thesis aimed at finding ways for technology education to provide possibilities to learning environments where the nature of technology could be integrated effectively into the current notion of children as active agents in their learning processes. The thesis was based on two Case Studies. Both of the Case Studies were carried out on the primary school level. The overall purpose of Case Study I was to consider automation technology and its teaching as a subject-matter area in developing technology education in Finland. In Case Study II the purpose was to explore the influences of socio-cultural interaction on children's thinking and actions in prescribed and open problem-solving situations while they were technologically creating a particular product which used sound for a chosen purpose. Case Study II also involved English schoolchildren. Teaching methods throughout the thesis were based on the assumption that constructivist-driven, open, and creative problem solving, as well as children-centered approaches, are especially suitable for technology education. This assumption arises from the notions that innovation and problem solving are important in technological processes and that technology has usually emerged as a response to human needs and wants. Consequently, design briefs were developed to provide open, children-centered problem solving based on the acute needs found in the children's own living environment. In both of the Case Studies multiple data collection procedures were applied. In Case Study I data were collected by means of group observations documented in videotaped recordings, written field notes and project files saved by the students. Moreover, In Case Study II data were collected in terms of photographs of the pupils' final outcomes, including pupils' design folders and product evaluations, the teacher's teaching notes, teacher's lesson evaluation notes, the researcher's field notes based on observations and a questionnaire. The methodological perspective in both of the Case Studies was qualitative in nature and grounded on inductive and interpretative data-based analysis. The analysis employed an open search for categories, concepts and patterns emerging from the data. The inductive interpretative analysis process enabled the results to be framed as empirical assertions. In addition to the assertions the results of Case Study I detailed content classifications of the substance in the focus were included as well. The assertions and the classifications were supported by evidentiary examples taken from the data. The supporting examples were interpreted from the viewpoint of the research problems. The results of the thesis suggested that in technology education it is important for children to be able to work and learn in a way that fosters open problem solving with innovation and divergent thinking. In technology education the design briefs and task allocations should be open enough to allow the children to explore their own living environment in order to find problems that need to be solved. Actually, in technology education, according to the nature of technology, there should not be right answers to the posed questions, but rather appropriate solutions to emerging problems. Moreover, teaching methods adjusted according to the nature of technology ensure naturally that the children are treated as active, intentional and goal-directed humans whose activities are driven by human volitionTiivistelmä Tämä tutkimus pyrki syventämään ymmärtämystä teknologian luonteesta ja sen mahdollisesta vastaavuudesta konstruktivistiseen oppimiskäsitykseen. Teknologiakasvatus on suhteellisen uusi ala yleissivistävässä koulutuksessa ja se on edelleen sukeutuvassa vaiheessa useissa maissa. Tällainen tilanne antoi mielenkiintoisia mahdollisuuksia ottaa huomioon viimeisimpiä oppimispsykologisia virtauksia suhteessa teknologian opetuksen kehittämiseen. Lisäksi tutkimus pyrki etsimään teknologiakasvatukselle mahdollisuuksia sellaisten oppimisympäristöjen luomiseen, joissa teknologian luonne voitaisiin tehokkaasti integroida nykyiseen käsitykseen lapsista oppimisprosessiensa aktiivisina tekijöinä. Tämä tutkimus perustui kahteen tapaustutkimukseen (Case Studies). Kummatkin tapaukset toteutettiin peruskoulun ala-asteella. Ensimmäiseen tapauksen (Case Study I) yleisenä tarkoituksena oli tarkastella automaatioteknologiaa ja sen opetusta sisältöalueena osana teknologiakasvatuksen kehittämispyrkimyksiä. Toisessa tapauksessa (Case Study II) tarkoituksena oli tutkia sosio-kulttuurillisen vuorovaikutuksen vaikutusta lasten ajatteluun ja toimintaan avoimissa ja suljetuissa ongelmanratkaisutilanteissa. Tässä tapauksessa lapset tekivät valittavaan tarkoitukseen ääntä tuottavia laitteita ja siihen osallistui myös englantilaisia koululaisia. Tutkimuksessa käytetyt opetusmetodit perustuivat oletukseen, että konstruktivismiin pohjautuvat, avointa ja luovaa ongelmanratkaisua sekä oppilaskeskeisyyttä korostavat lähestymistavat ovat erityisen soveliaita teknologiakasvatuksessa käytettäviksi. Tämä oletus nousee käsityksestä, jossa innovatiivisuus ja ongelmanratkaisu ovat tärkeitä teknologisille prosesseille ja että teknologia esiintyy vastauksena ihmisen tarpeisiin. Oppilaille annetut tehtävät määriteltiinkin sellaisiksi, että ne mahdollistivat avoimen, oppilaskeskeisen ongelmanratkaisun perustuen lasten omasta elinpiiristään esiin nousevien tarpeiden tyydyttämiseen. Molemmissa tapauksissa tutkimusaineistoa kerättiin usealla eri tavalla. Ensimmäisessä tapauksessa tutkimusaineistoa kerättiin oppilasryhmiä havainnoimalla mm. videonauhoituksin ja kenttäpäiväkirjaa kirjoittamalla sekä tallentamalla levykkeelle ryhmien projektissa luomat tiedostot. Tämän lisäksi toisessa tapauksessa tutkimusaineistoa kerättiin valokuvaamalla oppilaiden suunnittelukansiot tuotteen itse arviointeineen ja heidän valmistamansa työt. Tässä tapauksessa tallennettiin myös opettajan opetuksestaan tekemiä havaintoja ja arviointeja, tutkimuspäiväkirjaan tehdyt observointimuistiinpanot sekä oppilaille järjestetyn kyselyn tulokset. Molemmat tapaukset olivat metodologisesti laadullisia tutkimuksia ja perustuivat induktiiviseen ja tulkitsevaan aineistopohjaiseen analyysiin. Analyysissä kiinnitettiin huomiota nimenomaan tutkimusaineistosta esiin nouseviin käsitteisiin, lainalaisuuksiin ja säännönmukaisuuksiin. Tutkimuksen metodologinen valinta mahdollisti tulosten esittämisen empiirisinä väittäminä, joita tuettiin tutkimusaineistosta otetuilla esimerkeillä. Empiiristen väittämien lisäksi ensimmäisen tapauksen tulokset sisältävät tutkimusaineistosta esiin nousseita luokituksia analyysin kohteena olevista painotuksista. Sekä empiirisiä väittämiä, että luokituksia tuettiin tutkimusaineistosta otetuilla esimerkeillä. Esimerkit myös tulkittiin tutkimusongelmien näkökulmasta katsottuna. Tutkimuksen tuloksista voidaan päätellä, että teknologiakasvatuksessa on tärkeää antaa lapsille mahdollisuuksia työskennellä ja oppia tavalla, joka kehittää innovatiivista avointa ongelmanratkaisua ja divergenttiä ajattelua. Tässä mielessä annetut tehtävät tulisi olla niin avoimia, että lapsien olisi mahdollista löytää omasta elinpiiristään ratkaisua vaativia ongelmia. Itse asiassa teknologiakasvatuksessa, teknologian perusolemuksen mukaisesti, ei tulisi ollakaan vastauksia esitettyihin kysymyksiin, vaan tarkoituksemukaisia ratkaisuja esiintyviin ongelmiin. Lisäksi teknologian perusluonteen mukaiset opetusmenetelmät huomioivat lapsen sisäisesti toimintaan halukkaaksi motivoituneena ja aktiivisena sekä tarkoitus-ja päämäärähakuisena ihmisenä

Depuis les débuts des sciences humaines à la fin du dix-huitième siècle, la pédagogie et la psychologie scientifiques se sont constituées conjointement autour des questions du développement et de l’activité d’apprentissage chez l’enfant. Les notions d’activité, de développement et d’apprentissage ont permis d’établir l’hypothèse empiriste d’une psychogenèse des facultés mentales dont l’enfance attesterait naturellement à travers ses âges successifs. Les mouvements d’éducation nouvelle, issus des thèses philosophiques et pédagogiques exprimées par Rousseau dans l’Emile en 1762, ont pu donner sa dimension pratique à l’idéal d’une éducation négative fondée sur l’activité de l’enfant comme expression spontanée de ses forces vitales et spirituelles. Dans l’entrecroisement d’une métaphysique de l’activité, d’une conception libérale humaniste de l’éducation, d’une rationalité émancipatrice et de perspectives pédagogiques psychophysiologiques, peu à peu marquées par l’évolutionnisme et l’utilitarisme, sont nés les principaux paradigmes des pédagogies contemporaines : sensualistes, vitalistes, pragmatiques, fonctionnalistes, puis constructivistes. Dans cette recherche, nous avons analysé de façon archéologique et généalogique, à l’instar de M. Foucault, les dispositifs philosophiques et épistémologiques convergents et opposés qui ont permis leur constitution. Il apparaît que Rousseau a non seulement écrit le programme de leur déploiement mais encore anticipé des contradictions que celui-ci allait rencontrer durant la crise institutionnelle ultérieure de la modernitéSince the beginning of human sciences at the end of the eighteenth century, scientific pedagogy and psychology were founded conjointly around questions of the development and learning activity in childhood. The ideas of activity, development and learning have allowed to establish the empiricist hypothesis of a psychogenesis of mental faculties that would be proven naturally by the successive phases of childhood. The movements of New Education, stemming from the philosophical and pedagogical theses expounded in Rousseau’s Emile in 1762 have provided the ideal of a negative education founded on the activity of the child as spontaneous expression of his vital and spiritual forces with its practical dimension. It is in the intertwinent of a metaphysics of activity, a liberal and humanist conception of education, an emancipatory rationality, and pedagogical psycho-physiological perpectives marked increasingly by evolutionism and utilitarianism, that the principal paradigms of contemporary pedagogies were born : sensualist, vitalist, pragmatic, functionalist, and finaly constructivist. In the vein of M. Foucault this thesis proposes an archeological and genealogical analysis of the philosophical and epistemological apparatus or ”dispositives” that, converging and diverging, made the formation of these pedagogies possible. It seems that Rousseau did not only write the program of their deployment, but also anticipated the contradictions that the latter would encounter during the subsequent institutional crisis of modernity
