1. Problem-solving revisited : On school mathematics as a situated practice
Sammanfattning : The general interest behind the present work is to contribute to an understanding of human cognition in context. More specifically, the empirical research reported focuses on how pupils define and deal with problem-solving in what for them is a regular school situation. LÄS MER
2. Engineering problem solving : The case of the Laplace transform as a difficulty in learning in electric circuits and as a tool to solve real world problems
Sammanfattning : For engineers it is important to be able to use the ’skill’ of for example handling novel situations in powerful ways and to develop and design. They are expected to be able to understand theories and models and their connection to objects and events in the physical world and being able to apply these models and theories. LÄS MER
3. Problemlösning i matematikdidaktik och lärarutbildning : Ett mångdisciplinärt utforskande och affirmativ kritik
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis in mathematics education is to produce knowledge about problem-solving as a broad and complex phenomenon in mathematics teacher education, historically and in the present. With a multidisciplinary approach and affirmative critique, possible new understandings of the phenomenon are investigated, extended and transformed in three sub-studies and two chapters in the wrapping.

4. Mathematical modelling and Problem Solving in Engineering Education
Sammanfattning : Background Innovation and technology have made the 21st century engineering workplace problems more diverse and challenging. Mathematical modelling is being increasingly used as the primary form of engineering design and is fundamental in everyday engineering problem solving. LÄS MER
5. Designing for the incorporation of programming in mathematical education : Programming as an instrument for mathematical problem solving
Sammanfattning : This study explored Swedish upper secondary school students’ use of programming for mathematical purposes. The aim of the study was to investigate the process through which students learn how to use a programming environment as a technical artefact during mathematical problem solving and how the orchestration of such learning situations could facilitate this process.
