  1. 6. Agency and Artefacts : A cognitive semiotic exploration of design

    Författare :Juan Mendoza-Collazos; Kognitiv semiotik; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Agency; enhanced agency; agency hierarchy; derived agency; material agency; intentionality; prior intentions; intentions in action; pictorial representations; artefacts; tool-making; design theory; design semiotics; design research; phenomenology; cognitive semiotics; agentive semiotics; semiotic hierarchy; 4E cognition; bio-cultural evolution; philosophy of design; philosophy of technology;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates the role of artefacts in relation to human agency and design within a cognitive semiotics framework. It deals with questions such as What is agency? What are artefacts and how does agency relate to them? What kind of intentions are involved in the activity of designing? What is human-specific with respect to agency and design? How can the origins and evolution of design be explained? Addressing these questions, the thesis proposes a layered model of agency for explaining the relations between different grades of agentive complexity. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Bilingual students' learning in science : Language, gestures and phyiscal artefacts

    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; science education; bilingual students; mediating means; language; gestures; physical artefacts; learning; meaning-making; practical epistemological analysis; translanguaging; continuity; naturvetenskapsämnenas didaktik; Science Education;

    Sammanfattning : The objective of this thesis is to examine how language, gestures and physical artefacts are used in science classes with emergent bilingual students who do not share the same minority language as their classmates or teachers. The purpose is to contribute to findings that can enhance emergent bilingual students’ learning in science. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Managers' Cooperative Work Practices in Computational Artefacts-Supported Library Systems

    Författare :Niki Chatzipanagiotou; Anita Mirijamdotter; Jaime Campos; Christina Mörtberg; Ulrika Lund Snis; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Work Practice; Cooperative Work; Cooperative Work Practices; Computational Artefacts; Computer-Supported Cooperative Work; Articulation Work; Awareness; Appropriation; Ethnography; Focused-Ethnography; Fieldwork; Vignettes; Complexity; Managers; Management; Libraries; Academic Library; Academic Library Managers; Informatik; Information Systems;

    Sammanfattning : The dissertation presents understandings of the complex, contextual, cooperative everyday work practices of academic library managers supported by computational artefacts, as well as challenges disrupting their practices and thereby computational artefacts usage. The doctoral research approaches and conceptualises managers’ work as ‘everyday cooperative practice’, in this way adopting the computer-supported cooperative work (CSCW) approach. LÄS MER
