1. Stakeholder Influence in Higher Education : Old Ideas in New Bottles?
Sammanfattning : This dissertation deals with how national higher education policy affects stakeholder influence in practice, i.e. how two selected higher education institutions, the University of Oslo and Telemark University College, have interpreted and adapted to national policy reforms. The aim of this dissertation is threefold. LÄS MER
2. Analogical reasoning in science education : - connections to semantics and scientific modelling in thermodynamics
Sammanfattning : Analogiskt tänkande är en central kognitiv förmåga som vi använder i vardagslivet, såväl som i mer formella sammanhang, såsom i forskning och undervisning. Föreliggande avhandling behandlar hur analogier och analogiskt tänkande, uppmärksamhet på semantik och förståelse för vetenskaplig modellering kan användas för att hantera utmaningar i naturvetenskapsundervisningen, särskilt inom området termodynamik.

3. Redox models in chemistry : A depiction of the conceptions held by secondary school students of redox reactions
Sammanfattning : According to previous research, students show difficulties in learning redox reactions. By the historical development different redox models exist to explain redox reactions, the oxygen model, the hydrogen model, the electron model and the oxidation number model. LÄS MER
4. Explaining Civil Society Core Activism in Post-Soviet Latvia
Sammanfattning : Civil society activism in traditional non-governmental organizations (NGOs) is seen as one of the cornerstones of a vibrant participatory liberal democracy in most Western democratic states. Whereas this issue has been explored from a variety of perspectives in a Western context, only limited research has been carried out in a post-Soviet context. LÄS MER
5. Connect : Modelling Learning to Facilitate Linking Models and the Real World trough Lab-Work in Electric Circuit Courses for Engineering Students
Sammanfattning : A recurring question in science and engineering education is why the students do not link knowledge from theoretical classes to the real world met in laboratory courses.Mathematical models and visualisations are widely used in engineering and engineering education. LÄS MER
