    Sammanfattning : Numbers are abstract objects that we conceptualize and make sense of through metaphors.

The metaphors seem to break down, making a transition from intuitive to formal mathematics necessary. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Flipped Classroom (flipp) is described in both school and scientific contexts as a new teaching method where the individual pupil and her active learning is placed at the center and where lesson time to a greater extent is used for discussion and laboratory work, while information gathering takes place outside lesson time via ICT. Flipp has in recent years become widely spread in Sweden, which is why it is interesting to investigate flipp in a Swedish context. LÄS MER
