Towards an Integration of Research on Teaching and Learning
(2016) In Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research 60(3). p.272-285- Abstract

Later, based on Variation theory and in the form of Learning studies, there has also been a focus on teacher presentation of subject matter. These 2 research foci on students’ and teachers’ treatment of subject matter, represent a good basis for integrated research on teaching and learning. Contextual Analysis is suggested as a relevant research approach to integrated research on teaching and... (More)
