1. Engineering problem solving : The case of the Laplace transform as a difficulty in learning in electric circuits and as a tool to solve real world problems
Abstract : For engineers it is important to be able to use the ’skill’ of for example handling novel situations in powerful ways and to develop and design. They are expected to be able to understand theories and models and their connection to objects and events in the physical world and being able to apply these models and theories. READ MORE

2. Mathematical modelling and Problem Solving in Engineering Education
Abstract : Background Innovation and technology have made the 21st century engineering workplace problems more diverse and challenging. Mathematical modelling is being increasingly used as the primary form of engineering design and is fundamental in everyday engineering problem solving. READ MORE

3. Chemistry: content, context and choices : towards students' higher order problem solving in upper secondary school
Abstract : Chemistry is often claimed to be difficult, irrelevant, and uninteresting to school students. Even students who enjoy doing science often have problems seeing themselves as being scientists. This thesis explores and challenges the negative perception of chemistry by investigating upper secondary students’ views on the subject. READ MORE

4. Memory for Problem Solving: Comparative Studies in Attention, Working and Long-term Memory
Abstract : Living in a complex and dynamically changing environment requires accurate and timely behavioural responses that allow for adapting to such changes. Well-developed perceptual systems provide a continuous flow of abundant and up-to-date information on the changes in the environment, and, thereby, allow for tailoring behavioural responses accordingly.

5. Experimental studies of human-computer interaction : working memory and mental workload in complex cognition
Abstract : Complex cognition is readily described as cognitive tasks requiring the coordination of multiple steps of processing or tasks exceeding short term memory capacity. Similarly, mental workload may be described as the use and temporary expenditure of a finite amount of information processing capacity. READ MORE
