2. 1. Digital technologies in preschool education : The interplay between interactive whiteboards and teachers' teaching practices

   Author : Maryam Bourbour; Ann Quennerstedt; Gunilla Lindqvist; Sören Högberg; Sylvana Sofkova Hashemi; Högskolan Dalarna; []
   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Preschool Teachers; Digital Technologies; IWB; Teaching; Children; Preschools; Scaffolding; Mediational Means and Mediated Actions; Utbildning och lärande; Education and Learning;

   Abstract : This thesis is aimed at exploring the ways in which a digital technology, the interactive whiteboard (IWB), interplays with preschool teachers’ teaching practices. In the literature and ongoing debates there are different claims about if and how digital technologies can contribute to children’s development and solving preschool educational challenges.

4. 2. Travelling through time : Students’ interpretation of evolutionary time in dynamic visualizations

   Author : Jörgen Stenlund; Lena Tibell; Konrad Schönborn; Niklas Gericke; Örebro universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Evolution; visualization; time; learning; threshold; zooming;

   Abstract : Evolutionary knowledge is important to understand and address contemporary challenges such as loss of biodiversity, climate change and antibiotic resistance. An important aspect that is considered to be a threshold concept in teaching and learning about evolution is the time it involves. READ MORE

5. 3. Cognitive Interactive Robot Learning

   Author : Benjamin Fonooni; Hellström Thomas; Lars Erik Janlert; Christian Balkenius; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Learning from Demonstration; Imitation Learning; Human Robot Interaction; High-Level Behavior Learning; Shared Control; Cognitive Architectures; Cognitive Robotics; Priming; business data processing; administrativ databehandling;

   Abstract : Building general purpose autonomous robots that suit a wide range of user-specified applications, requires a leap from today's task-specific machines to more flexible and general ones. To achieve this goal, one should move from traditional preprogrammed robots to learning robots that easily can acquire new skills. READ MORE

6. 4. Designing for Intercorporeality : An Interaction Design Approach to Technology-Supported Movement Learning

   Author : Laia Turmo Vidal; Annika Waern; Dag Svanæs; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Interaction Design; Movement Learning; Movement Teaching; Biofeedback; Wearables; Constructive Design Research; Research through Design; Practice Design; Soma Design; Technology Probes; Strong Concept; Movement Aesthetics; Människa-dator interaktion; Human-Computer Interaction;

   Abstract : Technology-supported movement learning has emerged as an area with ample possibilities within Human Computer Interaction and Interaction Design, as interactive technology can help people to develop and improve sensorimotor competencies. To date, design research has largely focused on technology development and on supporting individual learning experiences. READ MORE

7. 5. Towards an understanding of dynamics in information visualization

   Author : Thomas Bladh; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Reglerteknik; Control Engineering;

   Abstract : This work is about interaction. Research in the field of information visualization has traditionally been slanted more towards presentation; this even though humans are interactive creatures. We observe our surroundings, make decisions based on what we see and react back into the world. READ MORE
