Studies have indicated that the learning results are closely related to how much effort a student puts into the course and how effectively the student works with the learning material. Adequate time-on-task is crucial for student teachers because it allows them to develop their teaching skills, build strong relationships with students, adapt to…

Eyvind Elstad; Knut-Andreas Abben Christophersen; Are Turmo – Journal of Teacher Education and Educators, 2024
Increased time-on-task is one of the overall goals for teacher education in both Denmark and Norway. However, student teachers' time-on-task in those programs are uncertain and highly debated indicators of research input. Researchers adopt this indicator with the expectation that student teachers must invest time and effort in their courses that…

Direct linkFong, Carlton J.; Gonzales, Cassandra; Hill-Troglin Cox, Christie; Shinn, Holly B. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2023
Nearly all college students require some academic assistance throughout their learning experiences. Rather than a dependent act, help-seeking is a self-regulated and motivated strategy; however, there are mixed findings regarding the relationship between academic help-seeking and academic achievement. Thus, the current study used meta-analytic…

Hovdhaugen, Elisabeth; Ulriksen, Lars – European Educational Research Journal, 2023
The Bologna process and the 3+2-degree structure presents students with several decision points in higher education, both which bachelor's programme to choose, and whether to continue beyond bachelor. Based on a small-scale survey containing both closed and open-ended questions, this paper studies reasons the students give for entering a master's…

Bjerg, Helle; Staunæs, Dorthe – Educational Governance Research, 2018
A recent national reform of the Danish public school facilitates a number of ongoing experiments in (re)organizing the school day in an attempt to potentialize the spaces in the shape of what we usually recognize as recess, breaks, and transitions. The reform may indeed be positioned within what have been termed the GERM or Global Educational…

Lykkegaard, Eva; Ulriksen, L. – International Journal of Science Education, 2019
The metaphor of the leaking pipeline is sometimes used to suggest that some students are lost for STEM as they advance through the educational system. This paper follows a cohort of upper-secondary school students with an interest in STEM from 18 months before their completion of upper-secondary until three years after their completion. Adopting a…

Staunaes, Dorthe – International Journal of Qualitative Studies in Education (QSE), 2018
In recent educational reforms, policy papers present students' desire and motivation for learning as decisive issues. The documents indicate that motivation has become a crucial issue for governmental intervention and results in a number of motivational technologies. Envy, once perceived as a mortal sin, is shown as integral of the ambiguous…

Pless, Mette; Katznelson, Noemi – Qualitative Research in Education, 2019
In this article we explore and develop the understanding of young people's motives for (non)participation in lower secondary education. Based on a two-year study dominated by qualitative and explorative methods, we combine a focus on young peoples' motives and goal orientations with a socio-cultural (and social constructivist) understanding of…

Seidelin, Lars; Albrechtsen, Thomas R. S.; Schöps, Katrin; Holmer, Marianne; Wahlberg, Magnus – Journal of Biological Education, 2021
The lack of interest among pre-university students to choose STEM subjects for their higher education is a heavily debated issue in many western-world countries. To boost Danish students' interest in biology, a study event on artificial reefs was introduced when teaching marine biology in lower secondary school and upper secondary school (student…

Pande, Prajakt; Thit, Amalie; Sørensen, Anja Elaine; Mojsoska, Biljana; Moeller, Morten E.; Jepsen, Per Meyer – Research in Learning Technology, 2021
Our main goal was to investigate if and how using multiple immersive virtual reality (iVR) simulations and their video playback, in a science course, affects student learning over time. We conducted a longitudinal study, in ecological settings, at an undergraduate field-course on three topics in environmental biology. Twenty-eight undergraduates…

Walton, Geoff; Childs, Mark; Jugo, Gordana – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2019
The aim of the project was to motivate school students to learn about the national literature of their own and others' countries. Engagement was fostered via the creation of digital artefacts (or "e-artefacts") such as online comic strips, live videos or animations. The pedagogical rationale was based on Papert's constructionism and…
