The Swedish school system
• Sweden has a decentralised school system.• Curricula and syllabi are goal-oriented. • Both the school and the individual teacher are
responsible for deciding how to work in order to reach the goals set.
• Teachers are employed by the municipalities and the municipalities are responsible for the education sector as a whole (except higher education).

Bottom line
• Large programs to promote usage of ICT in schools
• Rhetoric – a belief in “the good effects” on society and a unavoidable track – You can’t not not do it (Collis & Moonen,
2001)
![Page 12: The revolution of schooling? Changing patterns of teacher-student interactions in the era of new technology Visions and realities. Berner Lindström Göteborg](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032521/56649d5f5503460f94a403c1/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
HKU Febr 26, 2001 Berner Lindström 12
Rhetoric - technology
• ICT will completely change the conditions for schooling– “The gigabit net will change the conditions for
education”– E-learning is the new mood of learning
![Page 13: The revolution of schooling? Changing patterns of teacher-student interactions in the era of new technology Visions and realities. Berner Lindström Göteborg](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032521/56649d5f5503460f94a403c1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
HKU Febr 26, 2001 Berner Lindström 13
Rhetoric - schooling
• New opportunities (for everything)• New pedagogical methods• Schooling should be an authentic practice
– Problem based/oriented– Exploration– Children construct their knowledge
• Collaboration• Life-long learning• Democracy (reaching more and new students)

ICT in schools - infrastructure
• High quality highways• Schools have general access to Internet• Teachers
– Access to computers/networking at the workplace (public computers)– Access at home through private initiatives and special programs
• Students– Access to computers/networking at school– Workplaces never enough for students
![Page 25: The revolution of schooling? Changing patterns of teacher-student interactions in the era of new technology Visions and realities. Berner Lindström Göteborg](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032521/56649d5f5503460f94a403c1/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

ICT in schools – support
• Access to technical support is a crucial factor, generally noted by teachers and students.
• Support for utilizing the pedagogical potential of the computer is sought for
![Page 26: The revolution of schooling? Changing patterns of teacher-student interactions in the era of new technology Visions and realities. Berner Lindström Göteborg](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032521/56649d5f5503460f94a403c1/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
HKU Febr 26, 2001 Berner Lindström 26
ICT in schools – ICT-literacy
• Most teachers and students have basic knowledge and skills of using the computer as a personal tool, but are not proficient
• Subject-matter related competence is more developed• Competence in using ICT for pedagogical purposes is
not very high• But habits of using ICT on en everyday basis are
more and more common

HKU Febr 26, 2001 Berner Lindström 27
Institutional culture and individual mindsets
• Attitudes towards “new” technology (Becker)
• Work routines (Ekeblad et. al., Juhlin-Svensson)
![Page 28: The revolution of schooling? Changing patterns of teacher-student interactions in the era of new technology Visions and realities. Berner Lindström Göteborg](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032521/56649d5f5503460f94a403c1/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
HKU Febr 26, 2001 Berner Lindström 28
Pedagogy - ideas and approaches
• Pedagogical philosophy and and amount and type of use co-vary (Becker; Juhlin Svensson)
• Examination forms/institutionalised demands is crucial for how students work (Bergqvist & Lindström; Lindström, Marton, Laurillard et. al.)
• The emergence of a new paradigm
![Page 29: The revolution of schooling? Changing patterns of teacher-student interactions in the era of new technology Visions and realities. Berner Lindström Göteborg](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032521/56649d5f5503460f94a403c1/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

• Changing relations teacher – student - tools
![Page 30: The revolution of schooling? Changing patterns of teacher-student interactions in the era of new technology Visions and realities. Berner Lindström Göteborg](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032521/56649d5f5503460f94a403c1/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
HKU Febr 26, 2001 Berner Lindström 30
Pedagogy – the emergence of a new paradigm
• Focus on:– The individual student– The individual in the context of the group– Learning as knowledge construction in specific
subject-matter areas– Activities (processes of learning), not only
outcomes
![Page 31: The revolution of schooling? Changing patterns of teacher-student interactions in the era of new technology Visions and realities. Berner Lindström Göteborg](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032521/56649d5f5503460f94a403c1/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

HKU Febr 26, 2001 Berner Lindström 32
Pedagogy – the emergence of a new paradigm
• Focus on– Resources for learning – not teaching learning
materials– Media technologies / ICT as not just
complementary

![Page 36: The revolution of schooling? Changing patterns of teacher-student interactions in the era of new technology Visions and realities. Berner Lindström Göteborg](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032521/56649d5f5503460f94a403c1/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
HKU Febr 26, 2001 Berner Lindström 36
Evaluations
• It is very difficult, not to say impossible, to make the vision of changing students’ learning come true
• Not enough to run and implement projects• Development must be linked to changes in
teachers ways of working– Teamwork for teachers– Problem-based or project-based pedagogical agendas
• ICT per se does not change

Evaluations
• Teamwork problematic• Reification of ICT and ICT-pedagogy• Difficult to institutionalise and even to implement
in the class-rooms• Slow process

How does it work in schools and in the class-room?
Some examples
![Page 43: The revolution of schooling? Changing patterns of teacher-student interactions in the era of new technology Visions and realities. Berner Lindström Göteborg](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032521/56649d5f5503460f94a403c1/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
HKU Febr 26, 2001 Berner Lindström 43
Example: E-learning - new mode(l)s of learning
• On-line problem-based learning – student activity and the formation of goals– Upholding the asymmetry between teacher and
students– The interchange of form and content
![Page 44: The revolution of schooling? Changing patterns of teacher-student interactions in the era of new technology Visions and realities. Berner Lindström Göteborg](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032521/56649d5f5503460f94a403c1/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
HKU Febr 26, 2001 Berner Lindström 44
Example: E-learning - new mode(l)s of learning
• Videoconferencing – the extended class-room– The importance of control– Good teaching – thought through planning– Break-down of communication
![Page 45: The revolution of schooling? Changing patterns of teacher-student interactions in the era of new technology Visions and realities. Berner Lindström Göteborg](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032521/56649d5f5503460f94a403c1/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
HKU Febr 26, 2001 Berner Lindström 45
Example: Pupils search on the Internet
• Challenge to teacher authority– De-classification of teachers
• Challenge many teachers demand for control– Of content
– Of activity
• Students are cutting and pasting– “Knowledge in pieces” - amplification of a specific
epistemology

Working in a “constructionist” learning environment
• Students do engage in “exploratory talk” (Mercer), but the focus of the talk is not the subject matter, rather the “school-meaning” of the task, in their attempts to “frame” (Goodwin) the situation
• mainly by asking the teacher.• The teacher is
– a resource, but also a– a coach or a supervisor that guides the student as to
what to do and how to do it– And sets the criteria for good performance

The MBL-environment
• Figure 1. Typical setup of a MBL-experiment. A low-friction cart is pushed towards a motion sensor. A fan unit attached to the cart provides an approximately constant force in a direction opposite to the initial movement and the cart will thus change its direction of motion. The results are shown in Figure 2. Note that the fan unit provides a visible force.

The MBL-environment
• Figure 2. Results of the MBL laboratory shown in Figure 1. The position, velocity and acceleration as functions of time are displayed. A common misconception is that the cart has zero acceleration at the turning point. Another common misconception is that the acceleration is in the direction of motion (see the poor results on the pre-test for "coin acceleration" in Figure 4). By asking the students to make a prediction and sketch the s(t), v(t) and a(t) graphs before the experiment and by the rapid display of the experimental results these misconceptions can effectively be addressed.

The MBL-environment
• Figure 3. Results from an MBL-experiment with two colliding carts with equal and unequal masses respectively. Force sensors are mounted on top of each cart. The graphs show the forces measured by the sensors during the collision and the area below curves. Note the time scale. Most students are surprised to discover that the forces are equal when the carts have different masses.

The MBL-environment – Why is it effective
• The learner is part of a dynamic interaction with a system that makes the consequences of actions visible
• The sensuous and the conceptual are integrated through symbolic representation of simultaneous bodily experiences
• Interactions with other people decisive
• Understandings are promoted by experiencing certain patterns of variation
• Patterns of variation/focal awareness are promoted by task structure and/or teacher intervention

Results • The specific task structure and task representation is
crucial – The graph “phase” the learning process– Subjects try to “smooth” the registered graph
• An important part of communication is non-verbal and indexical
• The teacher fit into the task structure – important for – refocusing students– setting criteria for
• how to work and • what’s right and wrong

Summing up
• The didactical use of ICT is of minor importance.• ICT is much more a tool for personal productivity.• Empirical observations of the introduction of
computers in education tell us that, so far, the changes of basic pedagogical forms are not very revolutionary.
• Technology push pedagogy to a very little extent. The major finding is that new technology is used to “re-dress” old pedagogies.

Summing up
• The administrative use of ICT is basic
• Access to a developed infrastructure is necessary, but not sufficient.
• More important are general usage (habits) of ICT and societal “ICT-literacy”.
• The single most important factor in schools is the examination procedures used.

Summing up
• New ICT-based tool for production of “text” (multimedia), information search and handling, and communication will probably make a difference in the longer run.
• Teacher roles are changing– Less a presenter– More
• Designer of learning environments• Guide• Master?
• The digital divide is a real problem!
