چکیده

علاقه مندی دانش آموزان به یادگیری مهم ترین عامل توسعه تحصیلی است که ارتقای آن از دیرباز دغدغه اصلی متخصصان تربیتی بوده است. برخی از مطالعات و شواهد میدانی از کاهش علاقه مندی دانش آموزان به تحصیل و کسب مهارت های شغلی حکایت می کند. در همین راستا، برنامه درسِ کار و فنّاوری، با هدف ارتقای مهارت آموزی و هدایت شغلی دانش آموزان تدوین شده است. در این پژوهش، تلاش شده تا با معناکاوی در ادراک دانش آموزان و دبیران کار و فنّاوری و مبتنی بر روش نظریه برخاسته از داده ها و طرح تحلیل ابعاد شاتزمن، به اکتشاف و تحلیل ابعاد علاقه افزایی به درسِ کار و فنّاوری متوسطه اول، پرداخته شود. بدین منظور، با استفاده از نمونه گیری ملاکی، سهمیه ای و در دسترس و انجام مصاحبه های رایا نامه ای و مکتوب، داده ها گردآوری شد. تحلیل داده ها مبتنی بر روش سه مرحله ای شاتزمن و ابزار ماتریس توضیحی انجام شد. یافته ها نشان داد درسِ کار و فنّاوری با وجود چالش هایی که در زمینه کمبود امکانات اجرایی در مدارس روبه روست، به عنوان درسی محبوب و کارآمد در بین دانش آموزان مطرح است. همچنین دلایل علاقه افزایی به درسِ کار و فنّاوری، در بین دانش آموزان در هفده بُعد و از منظر دبیران کار و فنّاوری در قالب بیست بُعد، شناسایی و طبقه بندی گردید. نتایج با ترسیم ماتریس توضیحی و بیان نظریه، به صورت گزاره ها و ترسیم شکل، گزارش شد. نتایج نشان داد که از بین عوامل شناسایی شده، لذّت معلمی و احساس زندگی، مهم ترین عامل در علاقه افزایی دانش آموزان به درسِ کار و فنّاوری بوده است.

Dimensional analysis of increasing students' interest in work and technology courses from the perspective of students and teachers: A study of the grounded theory and Schatzman dimensional analysis

We explored and analyzed the dimensions of enhancing students’ interest in work and technology courses curriculum in junior high schools by dimensional analysis of the perceptions of students and teachers of vocational work and technology courses and based on the grounded theory and Schatzman dimensional analysis. Students were selected based on criterion, quota and convenience sampling methods. Thirty students of the seventh, eighth and ninth grades who were interested in attending the interview were selected by convenience and interviewed. Interviews were conducted based on quota sampling and selection of 10 students from each grade.Data were analyzed based on Schatzman's three-step method and the explanatory matrix tool. This analysis consists of three stages and as an organization plan, including a. dimensioning/design b. segregation; c. integration/reintegration. These steps are not linear and are provided only sequentially for ease of presentation. Schatzman proposed dimensional analysis in three steps using an explanatory matrix tool.IntroductionStudents' interest in learning is the most important factor for their academic progress. Educational experts are long expressed concern for enhancing students' interest in learning (Heuling, 2021; Tambunan et al., 2021; Guo et al., 2020; Kidman, 2018; Li, 2011; Thorndike, 1935; Quoted by Rowland, Knekta, Eddy & Corwin, 2019; Dewey, 1913).Some studies indicate a decrease in both students' interest in studying and acquiring job skills. In this regard, work and technology courses curricula were developed to improve students’ skills and as a vocational guidance for them (Mills et al., 2020; Rellensmann & Schukajlow, 2017). Review of literature on work and technology courses showed that no local studies have so far explored the basic dimensions in the formation and strengthening of interest with a qualitative approach. This research aims to identify the perspective, context, conditions, processes and consequences of students' increasing interest in work and technology courses in junior high school using the data theory method based on Schutzmann's dimension analysis approach. The questions we attempt to answer include “What are the dimensions associated with increasing students' interest in work and technology?” and "What context, conditions and process increase students' interest and what are its consequences?" MethodWe used dimensional analysis to explore and analyze the dimensions of enhancing students’ interest in work and technology courses in junior high schools in the perceptions of students and teachers based on the grounded theory and Schatzman dimensional analysis (Kools, McCarthy, Durham & Robert, 1996).To validate the findings, specific methods of qualitative studies, such as participants' control of the findings, made by four interviewees (Ghafoori & Salehi, 2017), as well as the analytical multidimensionality were used. The explanatory matrix is ​​an organized prototype that displays most of the intrinsic properties of the specified dimensions in the form of various conceptual components such as context, conditions, processes, and identified consequence. The main strength of this project is the development of analytical processes that enhance the process of comparability and comparison of data and concepts. Thirty students of the seventh, eighth and ninth grades who were interested in attending the interview were selected by convenience and interviewed. Interviews were conducted based on quota sampling and selection of 10 students from each grade.ResultsFindings indicate that courses are popular and effective for students although schools face challenges in terms of administrative facilities. Also, the reasons for enhancing students’ interest in work and technology courses were identified and categorized in 17 dimensions among students and in 20 dimensions among teachers. The results are reported through an explanatory matrix and express the theory in the form of propositions and figures. The results showed that among the identified factors, teacher’s pleasure and feeling the life were the most important factors in enhancing students' interest in work and technology courses. Among the teachers, dimensions such as the application of technology, workshop activities, responsibility assignment and authentic tasks were mentioned as the basic context. The dimensions of original evaluation, teaching technique, critique culture, executive possibilities, persuasion of the principal and parents, and modules generalizable to the outer world in the textbook were taken in the explanatory matrix in the conditions context. Also, the dimensions of using active teaching methods, enrichment of mental processes and holding business markets in the processes and dimensions of strengthening the relationship with the creator, skill development, promotion of mental processes, deep learning, academic-occupational guidance and facilitating halal earnings were taken in the consequence context. In the student group, dimensions such as "workshop and site activities" were taken in the basic context. The dimensions of "excellence of evaluation, teaching technique, and subject classes" were taken in the explanatory matrix in the conditions context. Dimensions of "attractive teaching methods, enrichment of mental processes, safety and health, holding business markets" were taken in the processes and dimensions of "strengthening the relationship with the creator, promoting collective ethics, skill development, motivation, academic academic-occupational guidance and facilitating halal earning and participation were taken in the consequence context. In the integration/reintegration phase, the following statement were formulated:Feeling of pleasure happens consecutively; that is, a work and technology teacher who has felt the pleasure of teaching in participating in school dynamism, success in family growth, self-regulation and self-development and participation in community development is the main contributor for creating pleasures such as the "feeling of life" in students.Discussion and conclusionPracticing life begins in smaller settings as students practice life in school during work and technology courses in intra-team and inter-team interactions, in interaction with the teacher, and in practicing business in the school bazaar.Material and non-material context and conditions contribute to the development of interest in material contexts such as technology, workshops and genuine tasks considered by work and technology teachers and in non-material contexts such as giving responsibility to students, as well as material backgrounds like genuine evaluation, executive facilities, book modules and classes and non-material backgrounds like teacher training, critique culture, persuasion of the principal and parents, and the excellence of the evaluation space. Based on the findings of this study, it is recommended thatHigher officials organize sessions for school principals to prioritize equipping workshops and the “site” in schools.Mass media address entrepreneurship education through creating a positive view among parents in terms of vocational subjects such as work and technology.     3. Work and technology courses begin in elementary schools (fourth grade) because participants mentioned that work and technology courses are one of the most popular courses for students
