Care ethics in research and practice: To do good and not give poison. This article draws on the insights made though my research engagement in mathematics education, assessment and inclusive education. (pdf)

Learning engagement (LE) is a crucial mechanism of successful learning. Log data from technology-enhanced learning environments offer numerous opportunities to assess learner behavior unobtrusively, reflecting learning processes, and thereby to understand why learning opportunities work. (pdf)

While research in educational leadership often relies on surveys and interviews that capture participants’ reflections after the fact, fewer studies examine how innovative thinking is co-constructed or unfolds during interaction. This paper introduces linkography, a protocol analysis method from design research, as a method to study the moment-to-moment interactions and conversations during collaborative problem solving. (pdf)

Based on the premise that the successful implementation of inclusion is largely dependent on the educators’ commitment to inclusive ideals, this study sought to examine the ways principals promote an inclusive vision and foster the development of associated practices in their school community. (pdf)

This essay examines six persistent myths: that the principal is ‘the instructional leader’; that instructional leadership is the principal’s only responsibility; that it is enacted through top-down authority; that it directly influences student learning; that it focuses on teaching rather than learning; and that it is at odds with social justice leadership. (pdf)

The methodological approach of research-based development is commonly utilised in Finnish universities of applied sciences for educational purposes. However, this methodological approach has gained limited attention in research literature. This scoping review aims to identify previous studies and summarise knowledge on the features of the methodological approach of research-based development in higher education of social…

We investigated early childhood teacher education (ECTE) educators’ attitudes and perceptions toward preparing preservice teachers to use digital technology with children in early childhood education and care (ECEC). (pdf)

Social science teacher educators prepare future teachers for digital citizenship education in AI-infused societies but the relationship between their professional backgrounds and their professional digital competence (PDC) in this multidisciplinary context is unclear. A mixed-methods survey study involving 47 teacher educators from the 16 Swedish institutions offering social science teacher education was therefore conducted to…

This study explores how interdisciplinary work is experienced by science teachers and students, using SD as educational context. A central aim was to compare teachers’ and students’ perspectives to gain nuanced understanding of its practical application. 

his study aimed to explore teachers’ practices in reading and writing education for students with disorders of intellectual development (DID) to enhance understanding of teacher practices and the students’ educational context. (pdf)

This study explored how child-related, family-related, and school-related factors were associated with ISA in 274 adolescents diagnosed with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, autism, and Tourette syndrome. (pdf)

This study examines changes in mental health and meaning in life among students attending Norwegian folk high schools (FHS), a non-formal, residential model emphasising community and personal growth. (pdf)
