  2. 1. A Material Framework for Product Design

    Author : Charlotte Asbjørn Sörensen; Valentina Rognoli; Lund University; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; experiential learning; material practices in design; pedagogic framework; higher education; product design; material selection; sensorial characteristics; technical properties; material criteria activities; case study;

    Abstract : A new paradigm is slowly making its way into society, affecting our material practice as designers. Materials selection in design and product development has for a long time been dominated by a purely technical approach, mainly focusing on properties and performance. READ MORE

  4. 2. From Tissue Engineering to Engineering Education Research: Designing in vitro cell microenvironments and undergraduate research experiences

    Author : Patric Wallin; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; teaching research nexus; community of practice; tissue engineering Undergraduate research experiences; cell microenvironments; cell migration; inquiry based learning; surface functionalization; chemotractant gradients; Microfluidics; situated cognition;

    Abstract : This thesis looks at tissue engineering from two perspectives that are closely interconnected with each other: 1) Research in the discipline of tissue engineering that aims to advance our knowledge in the field, and 2) research on how students learn tissue engineering through undergraduate research.In the body, cells are constantly exposed to a concert of different signaling factors that steer their behavior.

  5. 3. Seeing the parts, understanding the whole : A technology education perspective on teaching and learning in processes of analysing and designing programmed technological solutions

    Author : Anne-Marie Cederqvist; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; technology education; programmin; programmed technological solutions; programming materials; phenomenography; LeaDS - Learning in a Digitalised Society; LeaDS - Lärande i ett digitalt samhälle; technology education; programming; programmed technological solutions; programming materials; phenomenography;

    Abstract : Analysing and designing Programmed Technological Solutions (PTS) has been introduced as a part of technology education in an effort to bring elements of programming into the curriculum for compulsory school, in order to develop pupils’ understanding of how PTS work and are controlled by programming. However, what an appropriate understanding entails at this level remains to be articulated, particularly how this understanding looks from a pupil’s perspective. READ MORE

  6. 4. Finnish mathematics curriculum materials and teachers’ interaction with them in two cultural-educational contexts

    Author : Tuula Koljonen; Kirsti Hemmi; Hendrik Van Steenbrugge; Barbro Grevholm; Åbo Akademi; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; cross-cultural studies; elementary schoolteachers’ interaction with curriculum materials; Finland and Sweden; mathematics education; Finland och Sverige; grundskolelärares interaktion med läromedel; matematikundervisning; tvärkulturella studier;

    Abstract :  Tidigare forskning har visat att lärare är centrala aktörer i undervisning men också läromedlens stora betydelse för undervisningen och lärande har lyfts fram. Dock har mycket av forskningen kring läromedel och dess betydelse för undervisning och lärande gjorts i USA och endast ett fåtal studier har genomförts i Europa och Norden. READ MORE

  7. 5. InAS Quantum Dots for Laser Applications and Pedogogical, Gender, and Multicultural Aspects in Engineering Education

    Author : Fariba Ferdos; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []

    Abstract : This thesis builds on new cross-disciplinary research between engineering and educational sciences. Recently, two other theses that combine research in physics and education (Åke Ingerman, 2002, and Tom Adawi, 2002) have been completed in Sweden. This thesis consolidates a trend that can benefit both disciplines. READ MORE
