ADVANTAGESANDDISADVANTAGESOFUSINGTECHNOLOGY TO SENIORHIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS
Introduction
We cannotdenythe progressof technologythroughthe years,fasterandfaster,the worldwill be
changedby technology.Almosteveryoneembrace technology,anditistechnologythatmade ourlives
better.Ithas innovateseveryaspectof ourlife andwe can’tlive aday withouttechnology.Butinevery
advantage we see,ithasdisadvantage behind.we cannotdenythatininnovationwe see,italso
increasesthe riskof destroyingmankind.Accordingtosome scientist,byourpresentknowledgeabout
technology,we have the capacitytoeliminatemankind.
Crichton(2001), if we wouldbe eliminate mankind,itonlytakesafew billionyearstoregainearth’slife
all overagain.But we certainof it?Andis itlogical to letithappen?
Othercountieshave immenseknowledge abouttechnology,sowe have noplace indecision
making.Notto degrade ourcitizens,butnormallywe donotthinkof that,and the assumptionisthat,
until newpeople seetechnologyasanadvantage andthat compensate withreality.
Technology isappliedtothe roleseachindividualfulfill duringlife.We use technologyona daily
basisto accomplishspecifictaskor interests.Moderntechnologyincreaseshumancapabilitiesandthis
technologyhasevolvedwithyears.Whatusedtowork before, mightnotbe workingnow,itmustgot
oldor replacedbymoderntechnology,thislookatasimple example intransportationtechnology,this
may have evolvedwithyears,we usedsteamtopoweredtrains,now those have beenreplace by
electronictrainswhichmove fasterthansteamtrain. Basedon Ramey(2010), moderntechnology

people feartouse technologywhile otherssee itasthe source of longerandcomplete life.
On the otherhand,technologycouldreally make ahuge difference,accordingtoEinstein
(1949), ithas become appallinglyobviousthatourtechnologyhasexceededourhumanity.Bynear
2030, the bigdata will be operational,itisanartificial general intelligencecapable of exceeding

As seennowadays,technologybreaksourlimits,itdoesmake impossiblethingsandironically,
whatwe make can make,can destroy,andcan replace us,the livingcitizens of the earth.Yet,itaren’t

PERSONAL MASTERY, CONTEMPLATION AND ADULT
DEVELOPMENT IN THE WORKPLACE
ChapterI : Introduction
A. Overview
PeterSenge (1990) coinedthe term“personal mastery”forthe notionof
individuallearningasone of five "disciplines"of the workplace "learning
organization".Foritsabilitytomanage complexityandto helpusto learn,Senge says
implicitinthe practice of personal masteryisa"higherlevel of rapportbetween
normal awarenessand[the] subconscious"(p.162).He suggeststhatto "workmore
productivelywiththe subconsciousmind...people committedtocontinually
developingpersonal masterypractice some formof 'meditation'"(p.164).
Is Senge (1990) correct? Doesmeditationcontribute topersonal mastery?If
so,how? Doesmeditationcontribute onlythroughestablishingrapportwiththe
subconsciousorare there otherimportantprocessesandoutcomesrelatedto

mastery,or dootherforms,such as prayeror journalling,have arole toplay?
And,whatis personal mastery?Isitjusta processof life longlearning,orare
there specificdevelopmentalcapacitiesorattributesthatdistinguishpersonal

Finally,if personalmasteryinvolvesalife longprocessof learning,whatis
the nature of the relationshipbetweenlearning,personal masteryandadult

Adolescentscrave tohave an intimate romanticrelationshiptowhichlove isgivenandreceivedwithout

Furthermore,itisbelievedthathumansshare the same needtobe a part or connectedwithother

Introduction
Overthe past fewdecades,teenagepregnancyhasbecome apublicconcernwhichhasgenerateda
great deal of attentioninthe locality.Increasingawarenessof the social andeconomicconsequencesof
teenage pregnancyhasledtoa consensusopinionamongpolicymakers andthe publicthatteenage

Teaching and learning English in a
multilingual classroom
1. Introduction
Changesinlivingconditions,causedbyphenomenalike globalisation,economiccrisesand
civil warsaroundthe world,are amongthe reasonswhylarge numbersof people are in
motion,resultinginnational,transnational and/orinternationalmigration.Swedenalone
receivedroughly44,000 asylumseekersin2012 from about130 differentcountries(SCB,
2013), among whommanywere children.Differentnationalinstitutions,includingschools,
findthemselveswithspecialprogramsthatfighttoothand nail tocater for the immigrants’
learningneeds.
“If youtalkto a manin a language he understands,thatgoestohishead.If you talkto himin
hislanguage,thatgoesto hisheart,”notedNelsonMandela.However,due toemergent
multilingual societies,the needforalinguafranca,
1 whichcouldbe the base for
communicationinlanguage communitieswithoutacommonlanguage,isgrowingsteadily.
For some time English,beingawidelyspreadlanguageandusedforintercultural
communication,hastakenona strongpositioninternationally(Jorda,2005:9; Crystal,
2008:702; Sharifian,2009:1-16). However,fordecades,if notforcenturies,inmany
countriesespeciallyinEurope,monolingualismhasbeenthe norm, andconsequentlya
change to a pluralisticsocietyisbecomingachallenge.The politicaldiscussionbetween
leadersandgrassroot citizensconcerningEnglishasaForeignLanguage,EFL,or Second
Language,ESL, inSwedishmultilingualclassroomshasescalatedinthe lastfew years.Thisis
due to the fact that there isa dividedfocus:The pluralisticideologyisvisible inpolitical
documents;assimilation/immersionissoughtonthe grassroot level (Vetenskapsrådet,
2012:8).
Withthe Swedishratificationof The Council of Europe’sEducationpolicyonpluralismand
the Swedishideologyof “educationforall”regulatedinthe SwedishEducationAct
(2010:800) immigrantchildrenare requiredtoattendEnglishclasses.Inadditiontothat,
The SwedishEducationBoardstipulatesthatthe aimof Englishteaching/learningisto“help
studentstodevelopknowledge of the language andthe surroundingworldsothattheymay
have the ability, desireandconfidence touse Englishinafunctional andmeaningfulcontext”
(Skolverket,2011).The focusof the presentstudyisEnglishlanguage learnerswhohave
recentlymigratedtoandhave livedinSwedenforaveryshortperiod;oftenmerelyacouple

TEACHER PERCEPTIONS OF THE FLIPPED CLASSROOM: USING VIDEO
LECTURES ONLINE TO REPLACE TRADITIONAL
IN-CLASS LECTURES
CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
Educationisone fieldthatisconstantlychangingandadaptingto meetthe needsof
students.Asstudents’learninghabitschange withtheirinterestsinnew technologies,education
mustadapt to match those learninghabits.The usesandbenefitsof implementingtechnologyin
educationhave beenwell documentedinpartby Maierand Warren intheirbook,Integr@ting
TechnologyinLearningandTeaching(2000). However,amore recentstudyconductedby
Eteokleous(2008) foundthat“If teachersbelieve thattheirtraditionalpractice isreasonable,
effective,andefficient,theyare likelytoresistimplementingcomputerinnovations”(p.683).
While there issome resistance,awidespreadpushtowardthe implementationof technologyin
educationispresentthroughoutthe country.“Itiscommonknowledgethattwoemergentthemes
serve asthe drivingforce forintegratingtechnologyintoK-12environments;preparingstudents
for the workforce andincreasingstudentknowledgeandskills”(Lowtheretal.,2008, p. 197).
Nowmore than ever,studentsspendamajorityof theirwakinghoursusingsome sortof
technology.AccordingtoGoogle,YouTube isthe thirdmostvisitedwebsite withover2billion
viewsaday (Gomes,2010). The powerandpopularityof videoisundeniable andcouldbe used
as an assetin the classroom.In2000, Lage,Plattand Treglia(2000) introducedthe ideaof using
technologyto“flip”atraditional classroomenvironment.Inthismethodknownasthe “flipped
classroom,”“invertedclassroom,”or“reverse instruction,”amongothers,whatistraditionally
done inclass isswitchedwithwhatistraditionallydone forhomework.Insteadof students
listeningtoa lecture duringclassandgoinghome to do homework,studentswatchvideolectures
at home and complete whathastraditionallybeenknownashomeworkinclassunderthe
guidance of the instructor.Recently,the flippedclassroommethodhasgrowninpopularityinthe
K-12 sector.What are teachers’perceptionsof the use of the flippedclassroom?

Crichton(2001), if we wouldbe eliminate mankind,itonlytakesafew billionyearstoregainearth’slife all overagain.But we certainof it?Andis itlogical to letithappen?

Introduction Changesinlivingconditions,causedbyphenomenalike globalisation,economiccrisesand civil warsaroundthe world,are amongthe reasonswhylarge numbersof people are in motion,resultinginnational,transnational and/orinternationalmigration.Swedenalone receivedroughly44,000 asylumseekersin2012 from about130 differentcountries(SCB,

For some time English,beingawidelyspreadlanguageandusedforintercultural communication,hastakenona strongpositioninternationally(Jorda,2005:9; Crystal, 2008:702; Sharifian,2009:1-16). However,fordecades,if notforcenturies,inmany countriesespeciallyinEurope,monolingualismhasbeenthe norm, andconsequentlya change to a pluralisticsocietyisbecomingachallenge.The politicaldiscussionbetween leadersandgrassroot citizensconcerningEnglishasaForeignLanguage,EFL,or Second Language,ESL, inSwedishmultilingualclassroomshasescalatedinthe lastfew years.Thisis due to the fact that there isa dividedfocus:The pluralisticideologyisvisible inpolitical documents;assimilation/immersionissoughtonthe grassroot level (Vetenskapsrådet, 2012:8). Withthe Swedishratificationof The Council of Europe’sEducationpolicyonpluralismand the Swedishideologyof “educationforall”regulatedinthe SwedishEducationAct (2010:800) immigrantchildrenare requiredtoattendEnglishclasses.Inadditiontothat, The SwedishEducationBoardstipulatesthatthe aimof Englishteaching/learningisto“help studentstodevelopknowledge of the language andthe surroundingworldsothattheymay have the ability, desireandconfidence touse Englishinafunctional andmeaningfulcontext” (Skolverket,2011).The focusof the presentstudyisEnglishlanguage learnerswhohave recentlymigratedtoandhave livedinSwedenforaveryshortperiod;oftenmerelyacouple of months.

However,amore recentstudyconductedby Eteokleous(2008) foundthat“If teachersbelieve thattheirtraditionalpractice isreasonable, effective,andefficient,theyare likelytoresistimplementingcomputerinnovations”(p.683). While there issome resistance,awidespreadpushtowardthe implementationof technologyin educationispresentthroughoutthe country.“Itiscommonknowledgethattwoemergentthemes serve asthe drivingforce forintegratingtechnologyintoK-12environments;preparingstudents for the workforce andincreasingstudentknowledgeandskills”(Lowtheretal.,2008, p. 197). Nowmore than ever,studentsspendamajorityof theirwakinghoursusingsome sortof technology.AccordingtoGoogle,YouTube isthe thirdmostvisitedwebsite withover2billion viewsaday (Gomes,2010). The powerandpopularityof videoisundeniable andcouldbe used as an assetin the classroom.In2000, Lage,Plattand Treglia(2000) introducedthe ideaof using technologyto“flip”atraditional classroomenvironment.Inthismethodknownasthe “flipped classroom,”“invertedclassroom,”or“reverse instruction,”amongothers,whatistraditionally done inclass isswitchedwithwhatistraditionallydone forhomework.Insteadof students listeningtoa lecture duringclassandgoinghome to do homework,studentswatchvideolectures at home and complete whathastraditionallybeenknownashomeworkinclassunderthe guidance of the instructor.Recently,the flippedclassroommethodhasgrowninpopularityinthe K-12 sector.What are teachers’perceptionsof the use of the flippedclassroom?
