1. Learning physics with Controllable Worlds : Perspectives for examining and augmenting physics students' engagement with digital learning environments
Sammanfattning : In this thesis I present a collection of case studies involving small groups of participants using ‘Controllable Worlds’—i.e., a particular class of physics digital learning environment (DLE) including simulations, ‘microworlds,’ and educational games that provides users with control over manipulable virtual environments.

2. Perspectives on the role of digital tools in students' open-ended physics inquiry
Sammanfattning : In this licentiate thesis, I present detailed case studies of students as they make use of simulated digital learning environments to engage with physics phenomena. In doing so, I reveal the moment-to-moment minutiae of physics students’ open-ended inquiry in the presence of two digital tools, namely the sandbox software Algodoo and the PhET simulation My Solar System (both running on an interactive whiteboard).

3. Resourceful students : Engaging students in active and systematic investigations in laboratories involving thermal phenomena
Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on students’ engagement in inquiry-based laboratory learning environments. The aim of the research is to explore what it is that makes students active and systematic in these types of lab learning environments. LÄS MER
4. Learning Physics through Transduction : A Social Semiotic Approach
Sammanfattning : This doctoral thesis details the introduction of the theoretical distinction between transformation and transduction to Physics Education Research. Transformation refers to the movement of meaning between semiotic resources within the same semiotic system (e.g. LÄS MER
