    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för pedagogik, kommunikation och lärande

    Author : Iuliana Mihaela Badica; [2023-10-10]
    Keywords : Interactive exhibit; mathematics; informal learning; science center; parent scaffolding; augmented reality;

    Abstract : Purpose: This study aims to address the current research gap on interactive mathematics exhibits by investigating parents’ role in supporting their children’s mathematics learning using such displays. In addition to this, the study examines the design of an interactive exhibit and explores whether it can facilitate mathematics learning among parents and children. READ MORE

  3. 2. The History of the Dirichlet Problem for Laplace’s Equation

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Analys och didaktik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Måns Alskog; [2023]
    Keywords : Potential Theory; Dirichlet Problem; Laplace’s Equation; Complex Analysis; Potentialteori; Dirichletproblemet; Laplaces ekvation; komplex analys;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to provide an introduction to the field of potential theory at an undergraduate level, by studying an important mathematical problem in the field, namely the Dirichlet problem. By examining the historical development of different methods for solving the problem in increasingly general contexts, and the mathematical concepts which were established to support these methods, the aim is to provide an overview of various basic techniques in the field of potential theory, as well as a summary of the fundamental results concerning the Dirichlet problem in Euclidean space.
