4. INSTRUCTION AND SUPERVISION

Teaching portfolio: https://tutkimuspirkko.wordpress.com/

Instruction and learning

My aim is to educate pedagogical experts, who has a repertoire of skills and tools to excel in changing situations in working life, and who also gain competencies for life-long learning. My teaching is grounded on the research in the learning sciences, emphasizing collaborative learning and technology-enhanced learning. I favor multimodal and interactive teaching and learning processes, with creativity, playfulness, problem-solving, collaboration and working life relevance. I put a strong effort for creating inspiring and goal-oriented atmosphere, where students are willing to go beyond their limits. I constantly try to understand more deeply, which triggers are potential for our students to get inspired and motivated in their learning activities. While learning, in addition the contents, many of the 21st century skills will be practiced, reflected and learned. According to my experience, teaching and learning can be effective and fun, and it can open new interesting insights for students and for myself as well. I have explored playful learning and teaching and playful learning environments since 2003, and developed and designed teaching and learning processes

Experience as a teacher, supervisor and trainer

My teaching experiences covers formal education in secondary schools, vocational schools and universities. In the universities (Oulu and Lapland) I provide training for the research and teaching personnel about eg., designing flipped classroom, motivation and technology-enhanced learning. I also act as teacher tutor and supervisor for teacher education students in their advanced training. As informal and nonformal education, my teaching experience include continuing training for teachers and rectors. I have been active in teaching teachers for designing technology-enhanced teaching and learning processes. In addition I provided together with my colleague Marjaana Kangas an international Playful Learning Lapland work shop for educator, many of them working in early learning and teaching. The work shop was a part of LIFE 2017 Conference. The next Playful Learning Lapland will be held in 2018.

My courses in the University of Lapland are for example: Designing learning and teaching (for all faculty students) Developing communities and organizations Learning, interaction and tutoring Digital technologies in teaching and learning in early learning Digital media in teaching in early learning Play, games and playfulness in teaching and learning New learning environments Masters’ thesis studies Current research in media education (partly) Introduction for media education (partly)

Students in these courses will be teachers, media educators, art educators and kindergarten teachers. My courses in the University of Oulu were for example:

Computer-supported collaborative learning (in collaboration with University of Saarland, Germany), Educational projects Learning of expertise Problem-solving Creative collaboration Thesis studies Design-based research (in collaboration with University of LMU, Germany) Qualitative research Orientation studies Learning theory and pedagogical use of technology Designing learning, teaching and assessment Building business through creative collaboration
