tandfonline.com – Leadership in low- and underperforming schools—two contrasting Scandinavian cases

tandfonline.com har udgivet en rapport under søgningen “Teacher Education Mathematics”: ABSTRACT ABSTRACT In this paper, we investigate how professional cultures and situated, material and external contexts relate to dynamic low- and underperforming schools in Scandinavia, particularly how the leadership is constructed through the leader, the followers and the situation. The first school studied was a low-performing school in Norway called ‘Toppen’, which has shown improved student outcomes. The other school, Seaside, is a Swedish school that is considered underperforming because student outcomes are lower than expected based on the contextual prerequisites. Our results show that Toppen can be described as a turnaround school and Seaside can be described as a cruising school. Analysis reveals that, at Toppen, the principal has been developing a culture that can be described in terms… Continue Reading

tandfonline.com – Towards a didactic model for multidisciplinary teaching – a didactic analysis of multidisciplinary cases in Finnish primary schools

The question addressed is in what ways General Didactic principles, as defined by Klafki and Schulz, can… Continue Reading
