  2. 1. Flexibility in knowing school mathematics : In the contexts of a Swedish and an Indian school class

    Author : Ingrid Dash; Pedagogik; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Mathematics education; compulsory school; Sweden; Orissa; India; flexibility in knowing; modes of knowing; authorship; agency; phenomenography; contextual analysis; intercultural perspective;

    Abstract : A central question in mathematics education research concerns understanding. The main objective of the present thesis has been to obtain insights into flexible modes of knowing in school mathematics in two school class contexts, and how these relate to modes of being a learner in these contexts, with specific focus on learners’ flexible ways of discerning parts and delimiting wholes, and how they understand part- and whole-relationships while doing mathematics.

  6. 4. Congenital upper limb anomalies : studies of epidemiology and hand function

    Author : Anna Gerber Ekblom; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Objectives: This thesis has three interrelated aims. (1) To describe the epidemiology of congenital upper limb anomalies (CULA) in Stockholm County, Sweden, in order to augment the few existing population studies of CULA (paper I); (2) To measure the incidence of different categories of CULA while using and evaluating a recently proposed new classification scheme (Oberg, Manske and Tonkin (OMT) Classification) based on more current knowledge of limb development than the previously used International Federation of Societies for Surgery of the Hand (IFSSH) Classification is based on (paper II); and (3) To investigate the relationship between measurements of body function and structure with both activity and participation in children and adults with radial longitudinal deficiency (RLD) by using the International Classification of Functioning and Health (ICF) framework, in order to shed light on what aspects of physical limb function and structure actually affect individuals’ daily life activity (papers III and IV).
