    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Teacher professional competence; teacher job satisfaction; school climate; student mathematics achievement; bullying; TIMSS;

    Sammanfattning : There are many factors that may contribute to explaining variation in teacher quality, which is the key to the schools’ success. These factors include not only teacher characteristics, but also conditions of the teachers’ work. LÄS MER

  3. 17. Dimensions of validity : studies of the Swedish national tests in mathematics

    Författare :Anna Lind Pantzare; Christina Wikström; Per-Erik Lyrén; Gordon Stobart; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; national tests; validity; interrater reliability; standard setting; linking; subscores; test development; didactics of educational measurement; beteendevetenskapliga mätningar;

    Sammanfattning : The main purpose for the Swedish national tests was from the beginning to provide exemplary assessments in a subject and support teachers when interpreting the syllabus. Today, their main purpose is to provide an important basis for teachers when grading their students. LÄS MER

  4. 18. Supporting mathematical reasoning through reading and writing in mathematics : making the implicit explicit

    Författare :Cecilia Segerby; Malmö högskola; []
    Nyckelord :Educational Design Research; Grade 4; Mathematic reasoning; Reading; Reciprocal Teaching Model; Systemic Functional Linguistic; Writing;

    Sammanfattning : In school mathematics, mathematical reasoning with an emphasis on language is considered an important competence. A student’s competence to reason in mathematics requires specific reading and writing skills, but suitable activities to support these skills are difficult to find. LÄS MER

  5. 19. Programming in grade 7-9 : Action possibilities and constraints from the perspective of mathematics and technology teachers

    Författare :Niklas Humble; Lena-Maria Öberg; Peter Mozelius; Stefan Hrastinski; Päivi Anneli Kinnunen; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The idea of using programming in fields outside of computer science is not new, but it has received renewed attention with the global trend of integrating programming in school curricula. In the Swedish context, mathematics and technology teachers for grades 7-9 have been significantly affected by the integration of programming. LÄS MER

  7. 20. Educational technology for visualisation in upper secondary physics education : The case of GeoGebra

    Författare :Lorena Solvang; Jesper Haglund; Niklas Gericke; Ellen Karoline Henriksen; Karlstads universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Representational competence; physics education; GeoGebra; Pedagogiskt arbete; Educational Work;

    Sammanfattning : In order to contribute to our understanding of how technologies can be used to visualise physical phenomena in order to support teaching and learning of the phenomena at hand, this licentiate thesis explores the ways in which visual representations created with GeoGebra can be used in upper-secondary physics education. In addition, this thesis provides a new model that can be used to characterise students’ representational competence. LÄS MER
