2. 1. Miniprojects and Context Rich Problems : Case studies with qualitative analysis of motivation, learner ownership and competence in small group work in physics

   Author : Margareta Enghag; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Social sciences; context rich problems; CRP; mini projects; MP; physics in upper secondary school; Students’ ownership of learning; SOL; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; Physics;

   Abstract : This thesis reports case studies of students working with context rich problems (CRP) and mini projects (MP) in physics in an upper secondary school class and in a physics teacher education class at university. The students report a big shift from physics in secondary school as fun and easy, to physics in upper secondary school as boring, difficult and with lack of time for reflections and physics talking, but they also found physics as interesting in itself.

4. 2. Two dimensions of student ownership of learning during small-group work with miniprojects and context rich problems in physics

   Author : Margareta Enghag; Hans Niedderer; Peter Gustafsson; Jonte Bernhard; Phil Scott; Karlstads universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ownership of learning; exploratory talks; physics learning; context rich problems; miniprojects; Naturvetenskapernas och teknikens didaktik; fysikdidaktik; Ämnesdidaktik; Subject Didactics; Physics; Fysik; NATURAL SCIENCES; Naturvetenskapernas och teknikens didaktik;

   Abstract : In this thesis the theoretical framework student ownership of learning (SOL) is developed both theoretically and with qualitative research, based on studies of small-group work in physics with miniprojects and context rich problems. Ownership is finally defined as actions of choice and control, i.e. READ MORE

6. 4. Improving everyday experiences using awareness and rich communication

   Author : Josef Hallberg; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Medical Engineering for Healthcare; Medicinsk teknik för hälsovård;

   Abstract : This licentiate thesis presents ubiquitous systems for human communication and awareness from the perspectives of improving our everyday life experiences and relieving our scarcest resource, ourselves. The thesis also presents different methods of designing such systems with the user needs in focus. READ MORE

7. 5. Long-term Environmental Problems, Economic Measures and Physical Indicators

   Author : Christian Azar; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; stability analysis; discounting; environmental debt; sustainability; intergenerational; weight factors; population dynamics; the greenhouse effect; economics; indicators;

   Abstract : This thesis consists of five papers and an introduction dealing with various aspects of the use of environmental resources. In both Paper I, The marginal cost of CO2 emissions, and Paper II, Discounting and distributional considerations in the context of global warming, we analyse the economics of the greenhouse effect.
