The overall aim of my research project is to describe and investigate the viability of PSO as design tool for teaching mathematics. READ MORE

  2. 2. Models of chemical bonding : Representations Used in School Textbooks and by Teachers and their Relation to Students´Difficulties in Understanding

    Author : Anna Bergqvist; Michal Drechsler; Shu-Nu Chang Rundgren; Pernilla Nilsson; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; pedagogical content knowledge; chemical bonding; textbook analysis; students learning difficulties; models in science education; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on how school textbooks and teachers present models of chemical bonding in upper secondary schools in Sweden. In science, as well as in science education, models play a central role, but research has shown that they often are difficult for students to understand. READ MORE

  3. 3. Teaching and learning of chemical bonding models : Aspects of textbooks, students’ understanding and teachers’ professional knowledge

    Author : Anna Bergqvist; Shu-Nu Chang Rundgren; Pernilla Nilsson; Ingo Eilks; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Chemical bonding models; Pedagogical content knowledge; Teachers professional development; Chemistry education; Students learning; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Despite the growing importance of science and technology in society, school students consider these subjects irrelevant and hard to learn. Teachers must therefore know how to teach science in ways that enhance students’ understanding and interest. READ MORE

  4. 4. Towards Visual Literacy in School : Interactions between Students and Interactive Visualizations in Social Science Classrooms

    Author : Ulrika Bodén; Linnéa Stenliden; Jörgen Nissen; Annika Lantz-Andersson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Design-based research; Interactive visualizations; Knowledge visualizations; Multimodality; Social science education; Socio-materiality; Visual analytics; Visual literacy; Designbaserad forskning; Interaktiva visualiseringar; Kunskapsvisualiseringar; Samhällsorienterande undervisning; Socio-materialitet; Visuell litteracitet;

    Abstract : This compilation thesis explores how the double aspect of visual literacy is enacted in secondary schools’ social science classrooms when interactive data visualizations are employed. The aim is to map what characterizes ‘reading’ interactive data visualizations and ‘writing’ knowledge visualizations, as well as implications for a didactic design supporting students’ visual literacy.

  5. 5. Enabling Media : Infrastructures, imaginaries and cultural techniques in Swedish and Estonian visual arts education

    Author : Ingrid Forsler; Michael Forsman; Staffan Ericson; Geoffrey Bowker; Södertörns högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; visual arts education; teacher training; educational technology; Sweden; Estonia; infrastructures; cultural techniques; sociotechnical imaginaries; visual methods; infrastructural imagination; media literacy; infrastructure literacy; bildämnet; lärarutbildning; utbildningsteknologier; Sverige; Estland; infrastrukturer; kulturtekniker; sociotekniska föreställningar; visuella metoder; infrastrukturell föreställningsförmåga; mediekunnighet; infrastrukturlitteracitet; Media and communication studies; Medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap; Kritisk kulturteori; Critical and Cultural Theory; Östersjö- och Östeuropaforskning; Baltic and East European studies;

    Abstract : This dissertation explores the media environments of visual arts education in Sweden and Estonia and how educators understand, negotiate and enable this infrastructure. Based on the notion that the ongoing digitalization of the educational system in these countries makes established practices appear, it further discusses how visual arts education as a school subject is shaped in relation to different technologies for image making and school administration.
