Assessing Competence Development and Emotional Responses During the Practical Semester of Vocational Student Teachers in Germany
In Germany, the integration of practical phases within teacher education programs aims to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application. A key initiative is the practical semester, introduced in eleven federal states, which provides experiential learning opportunities supported by university seminars and regional authorities. Research has highlighted a significant correlation between practical training and teachers’ compe…
Positive emotions, digital skills and reflection predict academics' perceived development of online teaching expertise
The increasing adoption of online teaching in higher education (HE), especially in the post-pandemic era and with the rise of artificial intelligence, highlights the need to better understand how online teaching expertise evolves. Recognising that such developments may fluctuate across contexts and time, this study employed an experience sampling method (ESM) to investigate both within-teacher variability and between-teacher differences in time-v…
A typology of approaches to professional learning and development in post-pandemic multi-location knowledge work in the technology sector
Increased multi-location work reduces face-to-face interaction among knowledge workers and, thus, affects learning in ways we have not yet observed or fully understood. This research examines how employees themselves perceive the impact of remote interaction setting on workplace learning. The study utilises a mixed-methods approach, and the data were collected from 33 knowledge workers working in the technology sector in Finland through interview…
Self‐Efficacy, Emotions and Mathematics Achievement
University teachers’ self-reported emotions and electrodermal activity during teaching-related working events
This intensive longitudinal study examined Finnish technical university teachers’ (N = 22) self-reported emotions and electrodermal activity during teaching-related events (teaching, tutoring, planning, assessing). Emotions were examined in the context of control-value theory (Pekrun, R. 2006. “The Control-Value Theory of Achievement Emotions: Assumptions, Corollaries and Implications for Educational Research and Practice.” Educational Psychology…
Academics’ perceptions of intercultural competence and professional development after international mobility
Standing and attractiveness of vocational education and training in Finland
This article discusses the standing and attractiveness of vocational education and training (VET) in Finland. We argue that learning environments, along with the expectations for and attitudes towards them, are related to the attractiveness of VET. The empirical part of the article describes a comprehensive view of learning environments based on our several interview data sets and previous findings. Four sets of existing interview data (N = 96) a…
Technology and Social Media Usage in Higher Education
This article presents a two-phase study exploring the usage of technology in higher education as well as the role of the general innovativeness in predicting the actual use of technology. During the first phase of the study, which involved 502 staff members, a descriptive analysis of their usage of social media, technological devices, and Microsoft Office 365 cloud services was performed, with various demographic variables being considered. Durin…
Adolescents' implicit theories predict desire for vengeance after peer conflicts
Why do some adolescents respond to interpersonal conflicts vengefully, whereas others seek more positive solutions? Three studies investigated the role of implicit theories of personality in predicting violent or vengeful responses to peer conflicts among adolescents in Grades 9 and 10. They showed that a greater belief that traits are fixed (an entity theory) predicted a stronger desire for revenge after a variety of recalled peer conflicts (Stu…
How Morality and Religiosity Relate to Intelligence
In this article we explore the moral and religious reasoning of mathematically gifted adolescents (N = 20) who attend a special boarding school for gifted students in Finland. The sample consists of 11 female and 9 male first-year upper secondary school students (Mage = 16.25, SDage = 0.444). The participants' intelligence and their moral and religious reasoning were measured by means of the following instruments: Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scal…
Conceptual Definition and Empirical Validation of the Spiritual Sensitivity Scale
In this study, we extend the Multiple Intelligence Profile Questionnaire (Tirri and Komulainen, 2002) based on Gardner's (1983) MI theory with spiritual intelligence (SQ). The operationalization of SQ was tested with an empirical sample of Finnish preadolescents, adolescents and adults (N = 496). First, we studied if 20 spiritual intelligence items reflect the categories of spiritual sensitivity (Hay, 1998; Bradford, 1995). The categories are: Aw…
The Intelligence Profile of Finnish Peacekeepers
This paper explores the self-rated intelligence-profile inventory based on the seven dimensions of Howard Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences in the sample of Finnish peacekeepers in Kosovo. The other goal is to test the instrument as a self-assessment tool to evaluate one’s spiritual sensitivity, the eighth spiritual intelligence dimension. Bayesian network modeling was used to study statistical dependencies between variables. Alpha value…
