  1. 1. Complexity Theory and Physics Education Research : The Case of Student Retention in Physics and Related Degree Programmes

    Författare :Jonas Forsman; Cedric Linder; Ismo Koponen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics Education Research; Complexity Theory; Student Retention; Physics with specialization in Physics Education; Fysik med inriktning mot fysikens didaktik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis explores the use of complexity theory in Physics Education Research as a way to examine the issue of student retention (a university’s ability to retain its students). University physics education is viewed through the concepts of nestedness and networked interactions. LÄS MER

  3. 2. The role of practical work in physics education in Lao PDR

    Författare :Thongloon Vilaythong; Sune Pettersson; Oleg Popov; Bertil Sundqvist; Ogawa Masakata; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Cultural-Historical Activity Theory; laboratory work; Laos; pendulum experiment; physics curriculum; physics education research; practical activities; Subject didactics; Ämnesdidaktik; didactics of physics; fysikdidaktik;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to get a better understanding of the role of practical work in physics education in the Lao People’s Democratic Republic (Lao PDR). The Lao PDR is one of least developed countries in the world with a weak base for science, and poor market opportunities for science graduates. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Trainee teacher identities in the discourses of physics teacher education : Going against the flow of university physics

    Författare :Johanna Larsson; John Airey; Anna Danielsson; Eva Lundqvist; Maria Vetleseter Bøe; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; physics; physics teacher education; preservice teacher training; professional identity; identity performances; femininities; discourse analysis; qualitative interviews; educational relevance; gender; Physics with specialization in Physics Education; Fysik med inriktning mot fysikens didaktik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates what is involved in being recognized as a legitimate physics teacher-to-be in a Swedish physics teacher programme. Drawing on in-depth, qualitative interviews with 17 physics teacher educators and 17 trainee physics teachers, this thesis sees learning to become a physics teacher as a process of performing professional identities.

  5. 4. Fysik, lärande samtal och genus. : En studie av gymnasieelevers gruppdiskussioner i fysik

    Författare :Karin Due; Sylvia Benckert; Britt-Marie Berge; Svein Sjøberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; physics education; science education; gender; group discussions; upper secondary school; sociocultural theory; discourse analysis; images of physics; Fysikdidaktik; naturvetenskapernas didaktik; genus; gruppdiskussioner; gymnasieskolan; sociokulturell teori; diskursanalys; föreställningar om fysik; lärande; Subject didactics; Ämnesdidaktik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis investigates how students in upper secondary school solve problems and discuss physics in small groups. The study examines how gender, knowledge in physics and the image of the subject physics are constructed in the students’ conversation and how these processes are related to each other. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Computational problem solving in university physics education : Students’ beliefs, knowledge, and motivation

    Författare :Madelen Bodin; Mikael Winberg; Diane Grayson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; physics education; computational physics; simulation; beliefs; motivation; mental models; network analysis; didactics of physics; fysikdidaktik;

    Sammanfattning : Solving physics problem in university physics education with a computational approach requires knowledge and skills in several domains, for example, physics, mathematics, programming, and modelling. These competences are in turn related to students' beliefs about these domains as well as about learning, and their motivation to learn. LÄS MER
