2. 1. Early Elementary School Interventions in Reading and Mathematics

   Author : Hanna Lindström-Sandahl; Henrik Danielsson; Stefan Samuelsson; Åsa Elwér; Joakim Samuelsson; Karin Landerl; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Intervention; Special education; Instruction; Reading; Mathematics; Randomized controlled study; Follow-up; Elementary school; Intervention; Specialpedagogik; Undervisning; Läsning; Matematik; Randomiserad kontrollerad studie; Uppföljning; Grundskola;

   Abstract : Supplemental special education support in reading and mathematics is essential for some children who struggle to learn basic reading or mathematics skills in their first years of schooling. Previous research shows that supplemental phonics and early numeracy and arithmetic instruction help students at risk for reading or mathematics difficulties. READ MORE

4. 2. Teaching and Learning Historical Explanation : Teacher and Student Cases from Lower and Upper Secondary History

   Author : Joakim Wendell; Johan Samuelsson; Martin Stolare; Thomas Nygren; Karlstads universitet; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; history education; historical explanation; causation; cause and consequence; explanatory progression; historical thinking; use of history; History; Historia;

   Abstract : The purpose of this thesis is to investigate and analyse how teachers and students understand the concept of historical explanation in the context of classroom teaching practices. The thesis is made up of four studies that investigate different aspects of understanding, focusing on either teacher or student understanding as expressed in words and actions. READ MORE

5. 3. Children’s early mathematics learning and development : Number game interventions and number line estimations

   Author : Jessica Elofsson; Ulf Träff; Joakim Samuelsson; Stefan Gustafson; Camilla Björklund; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; mathematics learning and development; number knowledge and skills; intervention; number games; number line estimation; representations of number; lärande och utveckling i matematik; numeriska kunskaper och färdigheter; intervention; numeriska spel; skattningar av tal på tallinjer; representationer av tal.;

   Abstract : Children’s early mathematics learning and development have become a topic of increasing interest over the past decade since early mathematical knowledge and skills have been shown to be a strong predictor of later mathematics performance. Understanding how children develop mathematical knowledge and skills and how they can be supported in their early learning could thus prove to be a vital component in promoting learning of more formal mathematics.

6. 4. “Count on me!” : Mathematical development, developmental dyscalculia and computer-based intervention

   Author : Linda Olsson; Ulf Träff; Joakim Samuelsson; Lisa Thorell; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; mathematical development; symbolic number processing; Approximate number system; developmental dyscalculia; computer-based intervention; matematisk utveckling; symboliskt nummerprocessande; Approximativa nummersystemet; dyskalkyli; datorbaserad intervention;

   Abstract : A “sense” of number can be found across species, yet only humans supplement it with exact and symbolic number, such as number words and digits. However, what abilities leads to successful or unsuccessful arithmetic proficiency is still debated. READ MORE

7. 5. Mathematical Learning Disability : Cognitive Conditions, Development and Predictions

   Author : Rickard Östergren; Ulf Träff; Joakim Samuelsson; Örjan Dahlström; Åke Olofsson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Mathematical learning disability; dyscalculia; mathematical cognition; number sense; Matematiska inlärningssvårigheter; dyskalkyli; matematisk kognition; antalsuppfattning;

   Abstract : The purpose of the present thesis was to test and contrast hypotheses about the cognitive conditions that support the development of mathematical learning disability (MLD). Following hypotheses were tested in the thesis: a) domain general deficit, the deficit is primarily located in the domain general systems such as the working memory, b) number sense deficit, the deficit is located in the innate approximate number system (ANS), c) numerosity coding deficit, the deficit is located to a exact number representation system, d) access deficit, the deficit is in the mapping between symbols and the innate number representational system (e.
