Leading schools during the Covid-19 school closures in Estonia and Finland
We examined practices and experiences of leadership during the COVID-19 school closures in 2020 by analyzing Estonian ( N = 219) and Finnish ( N = 775) school leaders’ responses to open-ended questions in an electronic survey. In the analysis we used five categories drawn from the data: Making decisions, Re-organizing schoolwork, Communication, Giving support, and Self. The findings show leaders stressing especially the themes of within school co…
The Development of Specialised Foreign-Language Schools in Soviet Estonia
This article sheds light on a paradox in the Soviet educational landscape: the development of specialised foreign-language schools in the context of a purported egalitarian society. These schools endured, and even thrived, through the collapse of the Soviet Union. First, a historical overview for Soviet-era development of specialised-school policies is provided. Second, the development of these specialised schools both generally, as well as in th…
Ühe Tuhkatriinu lugu. Luule(kogu) käsitlemine eesti kirjandusõpetuses
Luuleõpetuse klassik Michael Benton (1978: 114) märkis pea poole sajandi eest tabavalt, et luuleõpetus on inglise keele ja kirjanduse ainekava Tuhkatriinu. Tuhkatriinu metafoor avab üllatavalt täpselt ka luule praeguse asendi Eesti kirjandusõpetuses ja laiemalt hariduseski: rikkalik pedagoogilis-poeetiline potentsiaal jääb kasutamata, poeesia tundub hämar ja eemaletõukav, nii et lihtsam oleks selle ees sootuks silm kinni pigistada.

Foreign-language teachers’ associations’ journey from the Soviet period to the XXI century
The Soviet period is described as a highly centralised top-down system where schools and teachers had little to say about managerial topics. Instead, change was initiated by the resolutions and decisions of the Ministry of Education. This article aims to shed light on the establishment of Foreign-Language Subject Councils in Soviet Estonia in the 1960s, how and why they turned into communities of practice (CoPs) and the role that teacher agency p…

The Implicit in Translation: A Case Study of Récifs by Romesh Gunesekera. Translating Sri Lankan Culture to French. This article aims to shed light on how the translator of Reef, a novel written by the Sri Lankan author Romesh Gunesekera, has dealt with culture-specific lexis originating from the Sri Lankan context. We chose this novel because it contains many references to Sri Lankan culture. The terms referring to Sri Lankan realities appear in…
Narrative Analysis as a Means of Investigating CLIL Teachers’ Meaningful Experiences
An ever-increasing need for a bilingual education in globalized societies have set new challenges for all stakeholders from ideological (monoglossic vs heteroglossic) as well as methodological perspectives. Teachers’ persistent interest in different forms of bilingual education has attracted us to explore the potential of Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL) as a means of attaining a bilingual education in the second decade of the 21st…
