2. 1. Proof-related reasoning in upper secondary mathematics textbooks : Characteristics, comparisons, and conceptualizations

   Author : Andreas Bergwall; Andreas Ryve; Kimmo Eriksson; Kristina Juter; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; mathematics textbook; upper secondary school; proof-related reasoning; Mathematics Applied Mathematics; matematik tillämpad matematik;

   Abstract : Proofs and proving are difficult to learn and difficult to teach. A common problem is that many students use specific examples as evidence for general statements. Difficulties with proofs are also part of the transition problems that exist between secondary and tertiary schooling in mathematics. READ MORE

4. 2. Approaching Mathematical Discourse : Two analytical frameworks and their relation to problem solving interactions

   Author : Andreas Ryve; Kimmo Eriksson; Inger Wistedt; Anna Sfard; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Didactics of Mathematics; Mathematics Education; Analytical approaches; Communication; Concept maps; Contextualization; Discourse; Engineering students; Higher Education; Intentional analysis; Methodological framworks; Problem solving; Prospective teachers; Student teachers; Teacher education; Theoretical frameworks; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK; Matematik tillämpad matematik;

   Abstract : The driving force of conducting the two studies presented in this thesis is to examine ways that conceptual understanding and problem solving could be part of mathematics teaching, and through that, part of students' mathematical knowledge. The specific aims of the thesis are: 1) to characterize the classroom discourse of two, apparently similar, problem solving courses in teacher education and 2) to discuss the possibilities of developing two analytical approaches - the communicational approach to cognition and the dialogical approach - used for studying mathematical discourse.

6. 4. Approaching Curriculum Resources : Examining the potential of textbooks and teacher guides to support mathematics learning and teaching

   Author : Linda Ahl; Andreas Ryve; Skott Skott; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Keywords : Didactics; didaktik;

   Abstract : The driving forces of conducting the two studies presented in this thesis are: the strong position of curriculum resources in the mathematics classroom in general; teachers’ faith in curriculum resources to convey the intentions and goals of mathematics education; and the expected benefits to mathematics education through expanding the knowledge base of research in the area of curriculum resources in general, and teacher guides in particular. This thesis builds upon two studies conducted in Sweden. READ MORE

7. 5. Problem solving in mathematics textbooks

   Author : Daniel Brehmer; Andreas Ryve; Johan Lithner; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; mathematics textbooks; problem solving; textbook analysis; upper secondary school; Didactics; didaktik;

   Abstract : The aim of this study is to analyse how mathematical problem solving (MPS) is represented in mathematical textbooks for Swedish upper secondary school. The analysis comprises dominating Swedish textbook series, and relates to uncovering a) the quantity of tasks that are actually mathematical problems (MPs), b) their location in the chapter, c) their difficulty level, and d) their context.
