‘There are two gaps, so’: teaching materials as resources for correction in pre-service teachers’ EFL classes

ABSTRACT This study investigates how pre-service teachers of English as a foreign language do correction during their initial teaching practice at lower-secondary schools. The study employs multimodal conversation analysis on a dataset of 16 lessons taught by three pre-service teachers in Czechia. The analysis focuses specifically on how the teachers orient to the task format when doing correction in answer-check sequences. It demonstrates how the teachers employ talk, gesture and gaze to make the task format (such as fill-in-the-blanks, matching) relevant and thereby use the materials as points of reference as well as resources for structuring classroom discourse. This use of materials contributes to the completion of the correction sequences. It is concluded that (over-)reliance on teaching materials and limited flexibility, which can be observed in not accepting alternative answers produced by learners, seem to be manifestations of some of the traits of pre-service teachers’ performance.

CORRELATION BETWEEN METACOGNITION ABILITY AND STUDENTS' SCIENCE PROCESS SKILLS ON CELLULAR BIOPROCESS MATERIALS

Metacognitive skills are required for students to manage and keep track of their understanding of fact-finding and concept-building by scientific process skills. This research aims to determine the correlation between metacognitive skills and students' scientific process skills on cell-based bioprocessing topics.

The Pragmatic Intelligence of Habits

Habitual actions unfold without conscious deliberation or reflection, and yet often seem to be intelligently adjusted to situational intricacies. A question arises, then, as to how it is that habitual actions can exhibit this form of intelligence, while falling outside the domain of paradigmatically intentional actions. Call this the intelligence puzzle of habits. This puzzle invites three standard replies. Some stipulate that habits lack intelligence and contend that the puzzle is ill-posed. Others hold that habitual actions can exhibit intelligence because they are guided by automatic yet rational, propositional processes. Others still suggest that habits guide intelligent behaviour without involving propositional states by shaping perception in action-soliciting ways. We develop an alternative fourth answer based on John Dewey’s pragmatist account of habit. We argue that habits promote intelligent behaviour by shaping perception, by forming an interrelated network among themselves, and by cooperating with the environment.

Thinking Creativity as an Indicator of Student's Academic Achievement

Individuals have their own uniqueness. From such uniqueness it can produce something different through the way of thinking. Divergent thinking encourages students to have alternative answers to varying possibilities, but convergent ways of thinking can provide the correct answer of the possible alternative answers. This way of thinking can encourage student creativity. Students can see the possibilities of creative thinking and creative behavior to create something either in the form of thinking, problem solving, or a new product. Creativity supports academic achievement. Creative attitude can be developed through the process of education in which students are trained to be able to think creatively through problems that require divergent and convergent thinking continuously, so that in the future it can also support the career development of students to achieve their success.
