  2. 1. The use of a satellite-derived cloud climatology for studying cloud-aerosol processes and the performance of regional cloud climate simulations

    Author : Karl-Göran Karlsson; Erland Källen; Jon-Egil Kristjansson; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Clouds and climate; satellite cloud climatology; validation of clouds; clouds and aerosols; Meteorology; Meteorologi;

    Abstract : The entry of satellite-derived decadal cloud datasets with homogeneous coverage in time and space enables studies not possible before. This thesis presents two such applications. The first study deals with cloud-aerosol processes and the second with an evaluation of cloud simulations from a regional climate model. READ MORE

  4. 2. Students' narratives from graphical artefacts : Exploring the use of mathematics tools and forms of expression in students' graphicacy

    Author : Oduor Olande; Karl Göran Karlsson; Astrid Pettersson; Luis Radford; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Critical-analytical approach; Graph comprehension; Graphicacy; Graphical artifacts; Statistical literacy; Semiotics; Mathematical Education; Matematikdidaktik;

    Abstract : The research concerns presented in this dissertation addresses aspects of students’ interaction with commonly occurring graphical artefacts in teaching and learning environments. In particular, focus is on how the students make sense of these artefacts in relation to subject specific tools and forms of expression. READ MORE

  5. 3. Integrated and Subject-specific : An empirical exploration of Science education in Swedish compulsory school

    Author : I. Maria Åström; Karl-Göran Karlsson; Lars Owe Dahlgren; Björn Andersson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Science education; international studies; PISA; curriculum integration; Education; Pedagogik; Subject didactics; didactics of natural science;

    Abstract : This thesis is an explorative experimental study in two parts of different ways of organising Science education in the Swedish context. The first study deals with the question if students attain higher scores on test results if they have been working with integrated Science compared to subject-specific Science i.e. Biology, Chemistry and Physics.

  6. 4. Defining Integrated Science Education and Putting It to Test

    Author : Maria Åström; Karl-Göran Karlsson; Lars Ove Dahlgren; Ulf P. Lundgren; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Science education; international studies; PISA; curriculum integration; Subject didactics; Ämnesdidaktik; didactics of natural science;

    Abstract : The thesis is made up by four studies, on the comprehensive theme of integrated and subjectspecific science education in Swedish compulsory school. A literature study on the matter is followed by an expert survey, then a case study and ending with two analyses of students’ science results from PISA 2003 and PISA 2006. READ MORE
