    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; pupils; encounters with mathematics; actions; possible learning; mathematics teaching and learning; preschool class; primary school; activity theory; elever; möten med matematik; handlingar; möjligt lärande; matematikundervisning; matematikdidaktik; förskoleklass; grundskolans tidigare år; verksamhetsteori;

    Sammanfattning : Många och positiva tidiga möten med matematik är betydelsefulla för barns och elevers matematiklärande. Avhandlingens syfte är att bidra med kunskap om elevers möten med matematik i förskoleklass och årskurs 1 genom att undersöka, analysera och beskriva dem. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Exploring Probabilistic Reasoning : A Study of How Students Contextualise Compound Chance Encounters in Explorative Settings

    Författare :Per Nilsson; Inger Wistedt; Lennart Hellström; Dave Pratt; Växjö universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Probabilistic reasoning; randomness; compound chance encounters; contextualisation; differentiation; elaborative variation.; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK; Matematikdidaktik; Mathematical Education;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis aims at exploring how probabilistic reasoning arises in explorative learning situations that are random in nature. The focus is especially on what learners with scant experience of formal theories of probability do and can do when dealing with compound random situations in which they are offered opportunities to integrate different probabilistic lines of reasoning.

  4. 3. Consensus formation in the Deffuant model

    Författare :Timo Hirscher; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Deffuant model; consensus formation; opinion dynamics; sociophysics; vector-valued opinions; percolation; sociophysics;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with a mathematical model used in the context of social interaction in large groups, introduced by Deffuant et al. in 2000. Each individual holds an opinion and shares it with others in random pairwise encounters. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Interacting particle systems for opinion dynamics: the Deffuant model and some generalizations

    Författare :Timo Hirscher; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Deffuant model; bounded confidence; opinion dynamics; sociophysics; consensus formation; general opinion space; percolation; pumpless water transport.; opinion dynamics;

    Sammanfattning : In the field of sociophysics, concepts and techniques taken from statistical physics are used to model and investigate some social and political behavior of a large group of humans: their social network is given by a simple graph and neighboring individuals meet and interact in pairs or small groups. Although most of the established models feature rather simple microscopic interaction rules, the macroscopic long-time behavior of the collective often eludes an analytical treatment due to the complexity, which stems from the interaction of the large system as a whole.

  7. 5. Mathematics classroom talk in a migrating world : synthesizing epistemological dimensions

    Författare :Ulrika Ryan; Malmö universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Language diversity; multilingualism; epistemology; mathematics education; inferentialism; meta-understanding of language diversity;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is an expedition into and beyond students’ mathematics talk in classrooms framed by migration as a matter of dichotomization betweennamed languages and (in)formal aspects of one fixed mathematics. It is an attempt to make sense of how students grapple with and move about thedivides that those dichotomizations shapes. LÄS MER
