    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Mathematics Education; matematikämnets didaktik;

    Sammanfattning : This study aims to investigate the role of metaphor in the teaching and learning of mathematics. Two different studies help to fulfil this aim. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Obstacles to students' learning of the limit concept : A comparative study

    Författare :Abraham Kumsa Beyene; Kerstin Pettersson; Iben Christiansen; Juter Kristina; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Obstacles; limit; calculus; case study; comparative study; upper secondary; Mathematics Education; matematikämnets didaktik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis explores obstacles to students’ learning of the limit of a function as students learn the concept in post-compulsory schools in two culturally different contexts, namely Sweden and Ethiopia. The study investigates obstacles to students’ learning of the intuitive limit concept (the limit concept that is based on the intuitive definition) taught in upper secondary schools of these two contexts and characterises the nature of these obstacles.

    Sammanfattning : In this compilation licentiate thesis, two studies, concerned with genre and genre-based writing, are synthesized and discussed. Genres are often used as a pedagogical device for teaching the writing of educationally valued texts. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Characterizing Prospective Elementary Teachers' Mathematical Knowledge for Teaching Fractions

    Författare :Anne Tossavainen; Maria Johansson; Monica Johansson; Ola Helenius; Iben Christiansen; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; elementary teacher education; fractions; mathematical identity; mathematical knowledge for teaching; prospective elementary teacher; Mathematics and Science Education; Matematikens och naturvetenskapernas didaktik;

    Sammanfattning : Although research has delved into the challenges faced by mathematics teachers and students across various educational levels when working with fractions, these challenges persist. Fractions are an important but difficult content area in elementary school mathematics, and many future elementary teachers enter teacher education with limited knowledge of fractions. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Desires for mathematics teachers and their knowledge : Practicum, practices, and policy in mathematics teacher education

    Författare :Lisa Österling; Iben Maj Christiansen; Annica Andersson; Ilana Horn; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Teacher education; practicum; mathematics; commognition; images; legitimation code theory; policy; assessment; third spaces; reasoned judgement; matematikämnets didaktik; Mathematics Education;

    Sammanfattning : This dissertation is driven by questions about images of desired teachers, privileged teacher knowledge, and access to knowledge in teacher education. My position is that images of particular teachers restrict access to teacher education, while visible knowledge increases epistemic access. LÄS MER
