21. Mästarcoacherna. Att bli, vara och utvecklas som tränare inom svensk elitfotboll
Sammanfattning : This thesis aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of what it means to learn to become, be and develop as a coach in Swedish male professional football. The theoretical framework is inspired by sociocultural perspectives on learning and the theory of situated learning, particularly Lave and Wengers’ (2005) concept legitimate peripheral participation and parts of Wenger’s (1998) concept communities of practice.

22. Exploring the bits and pieces of curiosity : an information-theoretic approach to understanding what compels information-seeking
Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to investigate the computational mechanisms that drive curiosity, the motivational state for learning for its own sake. Curiosity is operationalized as information-seeking behaviors and self-reported curiosity. LÄS MER
23. Efficient Communication via Reinforcement Learning
Sammanfattning : Why do languages partition mental concepts into words the way the do? Recent works have taken a information-theoretic view on human language and suggested that it is shaped by the need for efficient communication. This means that human language is shaped by a simultaneous pressure for being informative, while also being simple in order to minimize the cognitive load. LÄS MER
24. Applications of Information Inequalities to Linear Systems : Adaptive Control and Security
Sammanfattning : This thesis considers the application of information inequalities, Cramér-Rao type bounds, based on Fisher information, to linear systems. These tools are used to study the trade-offs between learning and performance in two application areas: adaptive control and control systems security. LÄS MER
25. Designing for Peer Learning : Mathematics, Games and Peer Groups in Leisure-time Centers
Sammanfattning : Constrained by national tests and the mathematics curriculum, teachers have problems finding time for exploratory and hands-on mathematical activities, especially so in classes with a reduced pace of progression, for example because of a large proportion of second-language learners. Could the leisure-time center, where time is not earmarked, provide such opportunities? The conclusion of this thesis is that this can be done, on the condition that designed activities build on the central premise of the leisure-time center: children have the right to choose which activities to engage with.
