About Mari Paloniemi Lindström
I have a PhD in Education. My research interests concern 'Teachers' professional competence'. It includes pedagogical as well as subject specific knowledge of teachers, primarily in mathematics and reading, and the effects of these on students' performance, interest and motivation for the subject. The school climate and its impact on teachers' job satisfaction and student performance is another area of interest. Large-scale international assessments and analyses of these are included in the research work. National survey materials and knowledge measurements are also an area of interest.
