This paper is focusing IT-supported real-time formative feedback in a classroom context. The development of a Student and Teacher Response System (STRS) is described. Since there are a number of obstacles for effective interaction in large classes, IT can be used to support the teachers aim to find out if students understand the lecture and accordingly adjust the content and design of the lecture. The system can be used for formative assessment before, during, and after a lecture. It is also possible for students to initiate interaction during lectures by posing questions anonymously. The main contributions of the paper are a) the description of the interactive real-time system and b) the development process behind it.

This paper seeks to answer the research question "How does the flipped classroom affect students’ learning strategies?" In e-learning research, several studies have focused on how students and teachers perceive the flipped classroom approach. In general, these studies have reported pleasing results. Nonetheless, few, if any, studies have attempted to find out the potential effects of the flipped classroom approach on how students learn. This study was based on two cases: 1) a business modelling course and 2) a research methodology course. In both cases, participating students were from information systems courses at Dalarna University in Sweden. Recorded lectures replaced regular lectures. The recorded lectures were followed by seminars that focused on the learning content of each lecture in various ways. Three weeks after the final seminar, we arranged for two focus group interviews to take place in each course, with 8 to 10 students participating in each group. We asked open questions on how the students thought they had been affected and more dedicated questions that were generated from a literature study on the effects of flipped classroom courses. These questions dealt with issues about mobility, the potential for repeating lectures, formative feedback, the role of seminars, responsibility, empowerment, lectures before seminars, and any problems encountered. Our results show that, in general, students thought differently about learning after the courses in relation to more traditional approaches, especially regarding the need to be more active. Most students enjoyed the mobility aspect and the accessibility of recorded lectures, although a few claimed it demanded a more disciplined attitude. Most students also expressed a feeling of increased activity and responsibility when participating in seminars. Some even felt empowered because they could influence seminar content. The length of and possibility to navigate in recorded lectures was also considered important. The arrangement of the seminar rooms should promote face-to-face discussions. Finally, the types of questions and tasks were found to affect the outcomes of the seminars. The overall conclusion with regard to students’ learning strategies is that to be an active, responsible, empowered, and critical student you have to be an informed student with possibilities and mandate to influence how, where and when to learn and be able to receive continuous feedback during the learning process. Flipped classroom can support such learning.

Vårt syfte med studien är att undersöka hur enhetschefer anser att de ger och hur de får positiv feedback och i hur stor utsträckning det förekommer. Vi har valt att göra studien i en kommun, inom vård och omsorg, där enhetscheferna har samma chef och finns i samma verksamhet. Vår frågeställning: Förekommer positiv feedback och i sådana fall i vilken typ av kommunikationsform?I vilken utsträckning förekommer positiv feedback?Hur upplever enhetschefen positiv feedback?Vi har valt att använda en kvalitativ metod och göra intervjuer med semi- strukturerade frågor. Undersökningen genomfördes med att vi intervjuade nio enhetschefer inom vård och omsorg i en kommun. Vi har sammanfattat intervjuerna, där redovisar vi allmänt om enhetschefernas arbete och vad de säjer om positiv feedback.I analysen väver vi ihop resultatet av undersökningen med teori. De teorier vi använt oss av i studien är symbolisk interaktion, ledarskap, makt, motivation, kommunikation och feedback. Positiv feedback förekommer, men uppfattas olika av enhetscheferna utifrån deras synsätt och behov. Att ge och få positiv feedback sker både muntligt och skriftligt och har en effekt på både enhetschefer och medarbetare anser enhetscheferna. Det är väldigt individuellt vad positiv feedback betyder för varje enskild enhetschef.

Most science centres in Canada employ science-educated floor staff to motivate visitorsto have fun while enhancing the educational reach of the exhibits. Although bright andsensitive to visitors’ needs, floor staff are rarely consulted in the planning,implementation, and modification phases of an exhibit. Instead, many developmentteams rely on costly third-party evaluations or skip the front-end and formativeevaluations all together, leading to costly errors that could have been avoided. This studywill seek to reveal a correlation between floor staff’s perception of visitors’ interactionswith an exhibit and visitors’ actual experiences. If a correlation exists, a recommendationcould be made to encourage planning teams to include floor staff in the formative andsummative evaluations of an exhibit. This is especially relevant to science centres withlimited budgets and for whom a divide exists between floor staff and management.In this study, a formative evaluation of one exhibit was conducted, measuring both floorstaff’s perceptions of the visitor experience and visitors’ own perceptions of the exhibit.Floor staff were then trained on visitor evaluation methods. A week later, floor staff andvisitors were surveyed a second time on a different exhibit to determine whether anincrease in accuracy existed.The training session increased the specificity of the motivation and comprehensionresponses and the enthusiasm of the staff, but not their ability to predict observedbehaviours with respect to ergonomics, learning indicators, holding power, and successrates. The results revealed that although floor staff underestimated visitors’ success ratesat the exhibits, staff accurately predicted visitors’ behaviours with respect to holdingpower, ergonomics, learning indicators, motivation and comprehension, both before andafter the staff training.

I studien undersöks hur lärare ger elever muntlig och skriftlig feedback på uppgiftsnivå i matematikundervisningen. För att undersöka detta har observationer och intervjuer av kvalitativ karaktär utförts med sex lärare som undervisar i årskurs 1-3. Insamlade och avbildade dokument i form av elevers räkneböcker har också varit en del av datainsamlingsmetoden. För att på bästa sätt undersöka och besvara studiens frågeställning har grundad teori valts ut och använts som forskningsansats. Utifrån insamlad data och med substantiv och teoretisk kodning som verktyg har en teoretisk modell utvecklats. Modellen visar att muntlig och skriftlig feedback som ges från lärare till elev på uppgiftsnivå kan vara antingen direkt eller indirekt. Beroende på om feedbacken är muntlig eller skriftlig, direkt eller indirekt, kan den också vara bekräftande, uppmuntrande, upprepande, informerande, stöttande eller uppmanande. Detta resultat redovisas med hjälp av en så kallad "fyrfältare". Värt att notera är också att resultatet i studien visar att muntlig feedback ges i betydligt högre grad än skriftlig feedback. Ett par slutsatser som dras utifrån studiens resultat är att verkligheten skiljer sig från hur tidigare forskning förespråkar att feedback bör komma till uttryck i klassrummet och att elevernas ålder samt lärarnas tid spelar en avgörande roll för vilken sorts feedback som ges. En annan viktig slutsats som också dras utifrån studiens redovisade resultat är att vissa kategorier av feedback är mer effektiva för elevers lärande i matematik än andra.

Denna studie undersöker hur feedback på uppgiftsnivå respektive processnivå kan utveckla elevers resonemang när eleverna arbetar med problemlösningsuppgifter inom matematiken. De typer av resonemang som undersöks är algoritmiska och kreativa matematiska resonemang. Åtta elevpar från årskurs 5 fick arbeta med problemlösningsuppgifter och fick efterhand de behövde feedback på uppgiftsnivå eller processnivå. Efter genomförandet analyserades vilken resonemangstyp eleverna använde före och efter feedback på uppgiftsnivå respektive processnivå getts. Resultaten visar att elever som får feedback på processnivå i större utsträckning utvecklar fullständiga kreativa matematiska resonemang jämfört med de elever som får feedback på uppgiftsnivå.
