Anne-Line Bjerknes; Terese Wilhelmsen; Emilie Foyn-Bruun – Journal of Research in Childhood Education, 2024
Disagreement exists about how to best spark young children's motivation to learn natural science. Both curiosity and wonder are considered important motivational factors for learning during early childhood (0-8 years). This systematic literature review explores research about scientific curiosity and wonder in early childhood education and care…

Lena Boström; Göran Bostedt; Ingela Stenberg – Journal of Pedagogical Research, 2023
Research has shown students' study motivation is complex and demanding. It also asserts that teachers' perceptions and attitudes are decisive, complex, and demanding because they need to make many choices about planning and handling lessons and review their fundamental beliefs about study motivation. We aimed to describe teachers' perceptions of…

Agnes Strandberg – Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, 2025
As teachers' experiences are a prerequisite for developing an understanding of the challenges of teaching, their reflections on the potential of using authentic text in L1 grammar teaching deserves closer attention. This paper presents a focus-group study with six Swedish L1 teachers at upper secondary level during an intervention, in which they…

Charlotte Löfqvist; Maria Haak; Catharina Melander; Gudrun Edgren; Søren S. B. Bengtsen; Susanne Iwarsson – Teaching in Higher Education, 2024
The aim is to describe the development of a novel interdisciplinary graduate school, using the Swedish National Graduate School for Competitive Science on Ageing and Health (SWEAH) as a case example. We explore doctoral students' perceptions of being part of SWEAH and provide implications for practice. Written self-reports reflecting 78 students'…

Björn Palmberg; Carina Granberg; Catarina Andersson; Torulf Palm – Cogent Education, 2024
In the present study we investigate one 7th-grade mathematics teacher's eight-month long implementation of a comprehensive multi-approach formative assessment practice. Based on an analysis of classroom observations, interviews and written teacher logbooks, this classroom practice is described in detail to illustrate how multi-approach formative…

Based on the expectancy-value perspective on identity and identity formation, this paper explores the relationship between math identity (MI) and the dimensions of motivation (i.e. intrinsic value, attainment value, utility value and perceived competence) and math achievement in primary school. An additional aim of our research was to explore…

Oakes, Leigh; Howard, Martin – International Journal of Bilingual Education and Bilingualism, 2022
While the L2 Motivational Self System (L2MSS) has been extensively investigated among learners of English, this study explores through a crosslinguistic lens its applicability to learners of a language other than English (LOTE), in this case French. Quantitative survey analysis among 522 university learners of French and English in two European…

Englund, Hans; Stockhult, Helen – Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, 2023
Syllabus-boundness constitutes an important attribute of a so-called surface approach to learning, whereby students are seen as highly assessment-oriented, doing what is minimally required from them, and wanting well-organized courses and clear instructions. When this concept emerged in the late 1960ies, it was linked to a discussion on issues of…

Per A. Nilsson; Lars Westin – Education Inquiry, 2024
In 2011, Sweden introduced tuition fees for students from countries outside the European Economic Area (EEA) and Switzerland when they enrolled at higher education institutions (HEIs). As a direct consequence, the number of students in Sweden from those countries decreased by 80% that year. Since then, the number of students has increased again…

Jelena Radišic; Nils Buchholtz; Kajsa Yang-Hansen; Xin Liu; Hege Kaarstein – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2024
Mathematics teachers' beliefs are central to mathematics teaching and student learning. Because different aspects of motivation and affect--particularly enjoyment--primarily develop within the classroom context, examining how different teachers' beliefs may affect student outcomes in mathematics is imperative. The current study examines teachers'…

McGrath, Cormac; Ståhle, Ylva; Geijer, Lena – Education Sciences, 2021
This study explores teacher candidates' experiences of grading in higher education. A phenomenographic approach was adopted and four qualitatively different categories were identified. Grading was experienced as: self-identification, motivation, personal interpretation and academic enculturation. The results indicate that teacher candidates accept…

Lundgren, Erik; Eklöf, Hanna – International Journal of Testing, 2023
This study aims to assess student motivation to provide valid responses to the PISA student questionnaire. This was done by modeling response times using a three-component finite mixture model, comprising two satisficing response styles (rapid and idle) and one optimizing response style. Each participant's motivation was operationalized as their…

Daniel Mateos-Moreno; Anders Hoglert – British Journal of Music Education, 2024
This study aims to shed light on the motivation governing instrument choice. To collect data, we designed, piloted and administered a survey to a population of students enrolled in a music teacher education programme in Sweden. In line with previous, Anglo-centred research, we identify the instrument's timbre and parental influences as relevant…

Rönn, Charlotta; Pettersson, Daniel – Educational Assessment, Evaluation and Accountability, 2023
In contemporary ways of thinking about education there is an enhanced focus on individual students' results and less on students' collaborative processes for attaining good results. This may appear peculiar, given that the Swedish curriculum for the nine-year compulsory school states that students should be given opportunities to compose texts…

Mahmut Sami Yigiter – Journal of Theoretical Educational Science, 2024
One of the main objectives of international large-scale assessments is to make comparisons between different countries, education policies, education systems, or subgroups. One of the main criteria for making comparisons between different groups is to ensure measurement invariance. The purpose of this study was to test the measurement invariance…
