Show summary
Over the last decade, a strand of literature built on intersections between equitable pedagogy and teacher noticing has evolved, and the number of publications describing ‘noticing for equity’ has significantly increased. However, no comprehensive review of this body of literature has been performed. Hence, this article reports on a scoping review focused on the overarching research question ‘What is ‘teacher noticing for equity?’, which we investigated through examining descriptive characteristics of the studies and interpreting predominant themes in the literature. Fifty-five articles were included in the final analysis. The findings show that the area is dominated by studies from U.S. mathematics education research, while the number of studies in other subjects and contexts is growing. Based on our interpretive content analysis, we propose that teacher noticing for equity can be conceptualised around four main themes: students' participation, students' diverse strengths, students' multiple knowledge bases and the impact of biases.

Show summary
Manglende helhet og sammenheng, eller koherens, i lærerutdanningene har over lengre tid vært et tema i internasjonal forskning. I stadig større grad pekes det på studieprogramlederes avgjørende rolle for å utvikle koherens, og denne studien utforsker betydningen av organisasjons- og ledelsesmodeller for studieprogramlederes arbeid med koherens i grunnskolelærerutdanningene (GLU). Forskningsspørsmålene er: Hvilke organisasjons- og ledelsesmodeller kan vi identifisere ved GLU-institusjonene i Norge, og Hva betyr organisering og lederstruktur for studieprogramlederes arbeid med å skape koherens ved to utvalgte GLU institusjoner? Datagrunnlaget i studien inkluderer en spørreundersøkelse som fokuserer påledelses- og organisasjonsmodeller ved 13 GLU-institusjoner i Norge, i tillegg til kvalitative intervjudata og logger fra studieprogramledere ved to utvalgte GLU-institusjoner. Våre funn viser store variasjoner i organisasjons- og ledelsesmodeller ved GLU-institusjonene, men med en overvekt av matriseorganisering1 i ulike varianter. Funnene viser også forskjeller i hvordan studieprogramlederrollen er definert, fra rene lederstillinger til kombinerte roller som omfatter undervisning, forskning og programlederansvar. Videre tyder funnene fra de to utvalgte institusjonene på at studieprogramlederne opplever likelydende utfordringer knyttet til organisering. Faglig fragmentering i organisasjonen kan føre til motstridende interesser som skaper barrierer for studieprogramledere i deres arbeid med å fremme koherens. Samtidig finner vi forskjeller i hvordan studieprogramlederne opplever disse utfordringene, blant annet på grunn av organisasjonsmodellens modenhet, grad av fragmentering i modellen og implementering av støttende strukturer for studieprogramlederne. Studien er et bidrag til å få økt forståelse av samspillet mellom organisasjon- og ledelsesstruktur. Studien viser også studieprogramlederes avgjørende rolle for å forbedre koherens i lærerutdanningsprogrammer

Show summary
The importance of research capacity-building in teacher education is highlighted to enable teachers to be change agents who continually develop their own and the school’s collective practices, which again presupposes that the teacher educators themselves are research literate. However, teacher educators come from different backgrounds and have varying levels of experience with conducting research. They are also often challenged by competing demands from teaching and conducting research. This article examines four teacher educators who conducted developmental projects in their program while simultaneously participating in a series of structured workshops in research methods and academic writing. The article reports on interview data and logs from the participants and investigates how the workshops contributed to their development of research literacy. The findings indicate that the participants required and appreciated the structured scaffolding they were given, and they highlighted the importance of positive group support. The participants also expressed that the workshops contributed not only to building capacity for conducting research for them individually but also for building research capacity within their home institutions. Implications for teacher education are discussed, and the authors argue that targeted and individualized support beyond what is currently the case might be needed.

Scholars debate whether foregrounding core practices in teacher education will enable candidates not only to enact but also to adapt these practices to specific classroom contexts. This study investigated six candidates’ enactment and adaptation of three practices for instructional scaffolding—introduced through the use of video during coursework— as they implemented those practices in their language arts teaching during fieldwork. The findings showed that all six candidates enacted the practices with their students and made various adaptations suited to their respective classroom contexts. The study provides nuanced information for ongoing conversations about pedagogies for practice-based teacher education.

Show summary
Scholars and policymakers have consistently argued for the importance of coherence in teacher education (TE). Despite this attention to coherence, challenges of fragmentation and disconnect remain, and little research exists on how study program leaders (SPLs) in TE work to achieve coherence. This article explores how SPLs in two selected TE institutions in Norway perceive coherence and what strategies they use to create coherent TE programs. The two case studies use an ethnographic approach and report on repeated qualitative interviews with seven SPLs, supported by short-term observations over a period of one academic year. The analysis contributes to the small but emergent literature on how SPLs conceptualize coherence and identifies six strategies that SPLs use to navigate persistent barriers within a diverse and autonomous faculty in their ongoing efforts to strengthen coherence in TE programs. Implications for study program leadership in TE are discussed.

Show summary
eacher education has received increased attention in recent decades and is not only well recognized, but also criticized. Critics argue that teacher education is fragmented and disconnected to practice. Globally, policymakers and scholars emphasize the importance of grounding teacher education more profoundly in practice, but although the terms practice and practice-based are extremely prevalent in teacher-education literature, the terms remain vague. This book chapter conceptualizes the idea of “practice-based teacher education” into four approaches – expertise, reflective, action research, and enactment – and discusses their theoretical grounding and pedagogical implications. By systematizing the field of theory and practice in practice-based teacher Teducation, this chapter contributes to reducing the complexity and vagueness of the concept, thereby nurturing a more specific and precise language and terminology when discussing the many meanings of practice-based teacher education.

Ny praksisform i lærerutdanningen: Analysepraksis for forsknings- og profesjonsforberedelse.

Full text in Research Archive
Show summary
Det er et tilbakevendende tema at lærerutdanningen må være forankret i praksis i større grad, og at lærerstudenter fremhever nettopp praksiserfaringene som det mest verdifulle i studiene. I tråd med internasjonal forskning på alternative måter å gjennomføre praksis på, har lektorprogrammet ved Universitetet i Oslo utviklet fem dager med såkalt analysepraksis – en praksisform der studentene er på campus og der all undervisning tar utgangspunkt i en konkret case med videoer av undervisning, intervjuer med elever og lærer, dokumenter fra timer og spørreskjemaer elevene har besvart, alt fra fire skoletimer i samme klasse. I artikkelen undersøker vi, ved hjelp av både spørreskjema og fokusgrupper, i hvilken grad lektorstudentene oppfatter at en slik praksisorganisering har bidratt til deres forsknings- og profesjonsforberedelser. Funnene viser at studentene er positive til alternative praksisformer, at de opplever analysepraksis som relevant for egen masteroppgave, og at det å analysere artefakter fra praksis er en progresjon fra tidligere praksisperioder. I diskusjonen tar vi opp hvordan studentene kan utfordres på at det å kjenne til ulike forskningsmetoder og analytiske innganger ikke bare er noe som angår forskere og masterstudenter – men alle profesjonelle lærere som skal forholde seg til forskning gjennom hele yrkeslivet.

Teacher educators and policymakers worldwide have called for a practice-based teacher education. However, the body of research on teacher education is limited, as is the knowledge about practice-based teacher education. This article summarises six recent comprehensive research reviews on teacher education. It gives an overview of the research trends in international research on practice-based teacher educationwith regard to research focus, research designs, and validity issues. The article discusses challenges within this field of research and provides recommendations for future research. It concludes that further research—using a greater variety of research designs and paying closer attention to methodological developments—is needed.

Worldwide, scholars and policymakers emphasise the importance of basing teacher education in practice. Scholars have therefore suggested to extend the amount of fieldwork. Still, research has shown that the fieldwork component in teacher education of variable quality. During the last 10 years, an increasing body of research has thus emphasised coursework as an important site for making teacher education practice-based, by centreing coursework on core practices of teaching. This approach to practice-based teacher education has been called the enactment approach, and is primarily set within a US context. This article examines research on teacher education coursework in Norway and Finland, to investigate the extent to which the geographic scope of this approach has expanded to a Nordic context.

To support pupils’ learning, teachers must understand what and how their pupils have learned, and teacher education should teach candidates how to do this. This article reports on survey data (n = 270) from three programmes and observation data (N = 104 h) from six programmes, located in Norway, Finland and the US. It examines the candidates’ opportunities to analyse pupils’ learning within their coursework. The authors argue that such opportunities might constitute profound possibilities to examine the complexity of teaching and learning. However, the study finds that the candidates have few opportunities to analyse pupils learning and that the full potential of these opportunities is unrealized. The authors argue for increased, specific attention to pupils’ learning within teacher education coursework, through a pedagogy of teacher education informed by existing research on how to elicit pupils’ learning.

Worldwide, scholars and policymakers have called for teacher education to link fieldwork and coursework. This article examines teacher candidates’ opportunities to talk about field placement within their campus coursework as one way of doing so. It reports on survey data (n = 270) and observation data (n = 52 hours) from 3 teacher-education programs in Norway, Finland, and California in the USA. Findings suggest that candidates have extensive opportunities to talk about field placement. However, the characteristics of the talk, the degree of specificity and detail provided, and the level of complexity and connectedness to theory vary extensively. The article argues that, to be generative for professional learning, talk about field placement needs to be systematically scaffolded within a pedagogy of teacher education.

Using an analytical framework decomposing the conception of ‘opportunities that are grounded in practice’ in teacher education, this article provides evidence regarding the successes—and challenges—concerning incorporating practice in teacher education.

In this paper we examine video-stimulated reflection conversations between preservice teachers (PSTs), practicum teachers and campus teachers in the context of a practice-based teacher education. We ask the following research question: How do practicum teachers, campus teachers and the PSTs all contribute to the productiveness of the analytic talk around pedagogical dilemmas in video-stimulated reflection conversations?The data material for this qualitative case study is a collection of 29 videorecorded, video-stimulated reflection conversations from the subjects Mathematics (n=13) and English as a foreign language (EFL) (n=16). We looked for potential pedagogical problems and dilemmas that surfaced during the discussion. We analysed the conversations using Horn and Little’s (2010) conversational moves for analytic talk: Normalizing, specifying, revising and generalizing problems of practice.Analyses from both subjects indicate that the PSTs’ initial noticing and pedagogical reasoning had not fully grasped the pedagogical dilemmas from their teaching situations. During the reflection conversations, however, several pedagogical dilemmas became visible, and the pedagogical reasoning became more elaborate. This study emphasises the potential of video-stimulated recall reflections (Blikstad-Balas & Jenset, 2024). The analysis shows that the three-party conversations contribute to identify and interpret problems of practice and what constitutes “situationally relevant, appropriate action” (Horn & Little, 2010, p. 209). As such, using videos is one way to bridge the gap between practicum and campus education by drawing on analytic talk as well as on noticing and critical reasoning.

Show summary
The thesis is written within the field of teacher education research, and examines practice-based teacher education by looking at the extent and characteristics of how teacher education coursework is grounded in practice. It examines the opportunities the teacher candidates have to learn that are grounded in practice, and the instructional practices contributing to these opportunities. This is examined in six teacher education programs across three national contexts, using a conceptual and analytical framework, constituted by eight dimensions of opportunities to learn that are grounded in practice. The thesis has a multiple-case design. It builds upon observation data, and uses survey data as support. Primarily, the observation data analysis has been theory-driven, according to the analytical framework of the study, in addition to a more inductive analysis of the observation data and a descriptive analysis of the survey data. The thesis’ findings are summarized in its three articles. Article I identifies a pattern across all programs concerning specific areas of opportunities grounded in practice that seems to be established (i.e. opportunities to take the pupils’ perspective), while others (i.e. opportunities to analyze pupils’ learning) remain a challenge for grounding teacher education in practice. The other articles examine two specific opportunities to learn that are grounded in practice, i.e. opportunities to talk about field placement in Article II, and opportunities to analyze pupils’ learning in Article III. Article II finds that the candidates across programs report extensive opportunities to talk about field placement, but that the talk at one of the programs is more specific, detailed and linked to theory. Article III finds that the candidates have few opportunities to analyze pupils’ learning, and that on the few occasions that they do, the potential of these opportunities to learn about the complexity of teaching and learning is not taken advantage of. Overall, this thesis points to areas for development for teacher education, more specifically related to instructional practices grounding teacher education in practice. The work has been conducted at the Department of Teacher Education and School Research.
