A study was designed to determine whether the presence or absence of a classroom observer and the prior knowledge or lack of knowledge that an observation was to occur would affect the verbal behavior of teachers as measured by the Flanders System of Interaction Analysis. The variables were dichotomized yielding a 2 x 2 x 2 experimental design…

Explains the general concept and technology of interaction analysis, looks at a widely used system as an example of the field" and introduces a new technique. (Author/AA)

Persons interested in examining and improving instruction in the schools have long been aware of the need for more objective techniques to examine instructional processes. Flanders Interaction Analysis Categories provide an objective technique appropriate for studying the verbal, student-teacher interaction in classrooms; it can be applied in…

This paper focuses on three methods that have been and are being used to help teachers become more facilitative: interaction analysis, human relations training, and microcounseling. The application of the Flanders System of Interaction Analysis to the vocational-technical education setting is described. (CT)

VIC is a computer program for the analysis of verbal interaction category systems, especially the Flanders interaction analysis system. The observer codes verbal behavior on coding sheets for later machine scoring. A matrix is produced by the program showing the number and percentages of times that a particular cell describes classroom behavior.…

This investigation was designed to determine the effects of a perceptual modeling concept on the verbal behaviors of student teachers in their student teaching experience. The major objectives were 1) to determine the effects on verbal behavior of a videotape versus a verbal presentation of an interaction analysis system, and 2) to identify those…

Presents a computer program developed at the University of Cincinnati to transpose and compute sets of raw data from the Flanders' Interaction Analysis, used in investigating classroom teaching behavior. The program is included and its use with student teachers is discussed. (RAO)

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of training teachers in the use of strategies for content development through classroom communication behaviors, to determine the discriminatory power of the Content Analysis System, and to describe some of the relationships of content development characteristics and interaction…
