This Open Access book provides insights into teaching qualities and issues of equity across lower-secondary classrooms in the Nordic countries. It focuses specifically on features of teaching qualities in three subjects, i.e. mathematics, language arts and social science education. The work highlights similarities and differences across subjects, classrooms and countries.

This Open Access book provides insights into teaching qualities and issues of equity across lower-secondary classrooms in the Nordic countries. It focuses specifically on features of teaching qualities in three subjects, i.e. mathematics, language arts and social science education. The work highlights similarities and differences across subjects, classrooms and countries. The book draws on comparative, large-scale classroom video data and student perceptions data across all five Nordic countries with implications for understanding classroom teaching and, thus, students opportunities to learn.
The video dataset is coded using an observation manual as an analytical lens and provides a shared conceptual framework and language for describing features of teaching qualities. The book combines broader analyses of large-scale patterns in teaching with qualitative and in-depth analyses of distinct instructional features, such as classroom discourse, intellectual challenge, students well-being and the role of explicit instruction. Analyses focus on patterns both across and within subjects and countries. The findings provide empirical evidence for dilemmas in contemporary classroom teaching: how to balance students engagement with content while still supporting their academic well-being. Teachers use of explicit instruction and scaffolding techniques raise questions for the equitable access to education in the Nordics. This book offers practitioners and policy makers a unique insight into subject matter teaching in the Nordic countries, with evidence toward enactment of values and educational aims as well as highlighting areas for development and improvement. The findings and conclusions are relevant to teacher educators, professional development, policy makers and practitioners in the Nordic countries and beyond.
