Research Abstract

The purpose of this study is to elucidate learning processes of 5th graders in relation to their familiarity with the classroom environment, the content of the subject taught, and their teacher. The 5th graders' home economics class had been videotaped 21 times a year and classroom interactions between the teacher and the pupils were fully transcribed and analyzed longitudinally in terms of the teacher's presentation styles and evaluation strategy. The pupils' learning styles as seen by the forms of their responses and requests addressed to the teacher were analyzed as well. The results were ; 1. some characteristics of the teacher's and pupils' speech styles looked at in different classroom settings were that in a lecture setting the teacher addressed the whole class using the formal style of languaue to present a task and provicle information, while in a practical training setting both the teacher and pupils used the informal style of language to comment, make evaluations, and respond to a group of pupils or an individual. 2. The teacher provided less information as the pupils became exrerienced learners and at the same time the pupils confirmed more often what they had learned and initiated more spontaneous activities. 3. In an elementary school home economics class whose goal is to make a bridge from classroom learning to the outside world, it was clear that the pupils' participation in classroont activities and their experiences at home played a significant role in enhancing their motivation for learning. 4. Lastly, the pupils found the following four elements important when they evaluated their classroom activities ; 1) the teacher's preparation and decisions when setting a task for a classroom activity, 2) the pupils' freedom of choice in class, 3) the clarity of the teacher's evaluation of each classroom activity, and 4) opportunities for seeking confirmation.
