time, resources, class size, and organization. The author and an assessor (a teacher educator at ICLON, Leiden University Graduate School of Teaching) assigned the scores (Cohen's κ = 1.0).
Coding the extent to which the procedures had been applied in regular lessons and SpeakTeach lesson series
In order to determine to what extent the teachers had applied the three procedures of the SpeakTeach method (instrument 3) and to what extent they had already used these procedures in their regular teaching practice (instrument 1), all three procedures were scored on a scale from 0 (not applied) to 3 (maximum application) (see chapter 3, section 3.5.1, and Tables 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 for explanation).
Data analysis research question A
In order to answer research question A - To what extent did the teachers achieve the goals of the innovation (i.e. the SpeakTeach method) and their other goals and to what extent were they satisfied with the achievement of their goals? – we analysed the encoded data to ascertain:
1. whether the teachers had goals that were consistent with the goals that the innovation aimed to achieve (goals 1, 2 or 3, related to procedure 1, 2 or 3) (data instrument 1b);
2. whether the teachers had experimented with the procedures (extent of application of the procedures) and whether they were satisfied that the implementation of the procedures had helped them to achieve their goals (data instruments 1 and 3, and instrument 4b);
3. whether the teachers had any other goals than those intended by the innovation (code O) and, if so, whether they were satisfied with the implementation of these other goals. Being satisfied would mean that other personal goals could be achieved within the context of the innovation (data instruments 1b and 4b).
Data analysis research question B
In order to answer the first part of research question B – To what extent did the teachers follow adaptive learning routes in the context of the innovation, i.e. the SpeakTeach method – we used the scores for the extent to which each teacher applied each procedure in their regular teaching and in each SpeakTeach lesson series as described in chapter 3, section 3.5.1 (see
