  • Luokanopettajien suhtautuminen eri tasoisten oppilaiden koululiikunnan eriyttämiseen 
    Rytkönen, Ida-Maria (2018)
    The objective of this research was to examine attidutes of teachers towards general education differentiation and differentiation of physical education. Also investigated teachers attidutes towards physical education and skillful student. The research emphasized the differences of skillful student and frail student. This phasing of a question has been born based my bachelor`s thesis and my own experience. The research was carried out as qualitative attidute survey and interviewees was divided in two groups. Both of them was three elementary school teachers. The material gathering methods was performed either at schools or homes of the interviewees. The research material was transcribed and after this the material was categorised and analysed utulising different themes. Interview claims were coded by colours and research questions. After this these groups sought differences and similaritys. Every research questions consisted several themes. These themes were established in research results. As a result, the teachers had a contradictory attidute towards differentiation. Differentiation was important but challenging. Challenges was lack of time and space and the wellbeing of teachers. One of the results was emphasis frail students differentiation in real subjects and skillful students differentiation in practical subjects. Differences of students were noticed diffe-rent ways. Teachers own enthusiam and attidute was an important role in terms of students intrest and motivation. The research came out that teachers has a big responsability as a physical education bredeer. This theme is important to research beacause differentiation seem to be a baseline of differentiation. Students learning suffer if differentiation doesn´t work. As a conlusion, it can be stated that teachers reconize the importance of differentiation but doesn´t execute it at work like they want. Physical education has been investigated a little. This topic is important to study so that teachers gets more information about differentiation and they can self reclect and this way give high quality teaching for the students.
  • Opettajien kokemuksia ylöspäin eriyttämisestä matematiikassa ensimmäisellä luokalla ja Kymppi-oppimateriaalissa 
    Usenius, Heidi (2015)
    There are large differences in the level of development and mathematic skills among first grade students. The same teaching is therefore not suitable for all students. All students, even the skilled ones, need education and support appropriate to their needs. The purpose of this qualitative study was to investigate how teachers feel about and carry out the differentiation for high achievers in first grade. In addition, the aim was to find out teachers opinions on how differentiation for high achievers has been taken into account in the book series "Kymppi" teaching material. The data was collected as a theme interview in this study. The study involved four teachers, two of which have been authoring the book series "Kymppi" teaching material. The interview material was transcribed and analyzed using theory oriented content analysis method. The differentiation for high achievers was considered as a time and skill differentiation; additional tasks for fast students and challenging tasks for skilled students. The differentiation for high achievers was considered important. The differences in skills was considered the most important reason to differentiate. Loss of motivation, frustration, boredom, underachievement, false conceptions of mathematics and behavior problems were mentioned as potential consequences of unchallenging teaching. High achievers were also considered to be different from each other, although in general they are fast in calculations. As a means of identifying high achievers were mentioned observations, tests, exams and prior knowledge from pre-school. As a means of differentiation for high achievers were used grouping, different equipment and additional tasks. The differentiation for high achievers was considered challenging. Lack of time, material shortage, differences in students' skills, low quality of teaching material, lack of skills among students and teacher's own fears were highlighted in the interviews. The book series "Kymppi" was considered to include enough teaching material for differentiation for high achievers. Assignments for high achievers were considered challenging and different than base level assignments. These aspects were considered important for assignments for high achievers. The authors of the book series "Kymppi" also thought that it was important to stay in the same numeric range as in the base level teaching.
