    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; affect; beliefs; gender; mathematical reasoning; problem solving; upper secondary school; Other mathematics; Övrig matematik; matematikdidaktik; didactics of mathematics;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis explores two aspects of mathematical reasoning: affect and gender. I started by looking at the reasoning of upper secondary students when solving tasks. LÄS MER

  3. 2. What do students’ feel about mathematics? : Compulsory school students’ emotions and motivation towards mathematics

    Författare :Martin Nyman; Lovisa Sumpter; Kerstin Larsson; Peter Liljedahl; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Motivation; Emotion; Feelings; Primary education; Compulsory education; Motivation; Känslor; Grundskola; Grundskolelever; matematikämnets didaktik; Mathematics Education;

    Sammanfattning : This licentiate thesis deals with compulsory school students’ expressed emotions and motivation towards mathematics. Theoretically, it has been guided by Hannula’s meta-theory on affect (e.g., 2012), of which emotion and motivation are part. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Att utveckla algebraiskt tänkande genom lärandeverksamhet : En undervisningsutvecklande studie i flerspråkiga klasser i grundskolans tidigaste årskurser

    Författare :Helena Eriksson; Lovisa Sumpter; Inger Eriksson; Yvonne Liljekvist; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; mathematics education; learning activity; learning models; multilingual students; algebraic thinking; theoretical thinking; matematikämnets didaktik; Mathematics Education;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to develop and explore teaching possible to promote algebraic thinking together with young, multilingual students six to twelve years old. One underlying assumption for the aim is that algebraic thinking can be developed by students participating in learning activities that are characterized by collective mathematical reasoning on relations between quantities of positive whole and rational numbers.

  5. 4. Mean, median, and mode in school years 4–6 : A study about aspects of statistical literacy

    Författare :Karin Landtblom; Lovisa Sumpter; Kerstin Larsson; Judy Sayers; Aisling Leavy; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Mathematics teaching; statistical literacy; mathematics teachers; prospective teachers; students; text books; school years 4–6; Mathematics Education; matematikämnets didaktik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis explores different aspects of statistical literacy such as mathematical knowledge, context knowledge, use of words, and conceptions. The focus is on measures of central tendency: mean, median, and mode, and school years 4–6 (ages 10–13). The thesis contains of five papers and the phenomenon is studied in different contexts.

  7. 5. Grafisk och algebraisk representation : Gymnasieelevers förståelse av linjära funktioner

    Författare :Annika Pettersson; Igor Gachkov; Kerstin Pettersson; Lovisa Sumpter; Karlstads universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; mathematics education; linear function; graphic representation; scale; concept image; Matematik; Mathematics;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns upper secondary students’ understanding of algebraic and graphic representation of linear functions. Components of the students’ concept images, so-called ‘concept elements’, were studied as a way to capture their understanding. LÄS MER
