  1. 1. Utilising computer simulations to teach derivatives with p5.js and Google Colaboratory : A comparative study

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Patrik Johansson; Amin Kokhaei Pak; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Education is considered as one of the most crucial services of society, yet in recent years there has been a decline in understanding of mathematics among pupils. Therefore, this thesis explores how Python and Javascript code written using the web-based simulation frameworks of Jupyter/Google Colab and p5. READ MORE

  2. 2. Ways Mathematics Teacher Educators Influence Future Mathematics Teachers Understanding Learner's Cultural Diversity

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Centrum för akademiskt lärarskap (CAKL)

    Author : Gemma Frederiksen; [2023]
    Keywords : Cultural differentiation; cultural diversity; understanding learners cultural background;

    Abstract : This study investigates the ways in which mathematics teacher educators (MTEs) influence future mathematics teachers' (FMT) understanding of learners’ cultural diversity. The rationale for cultural diversity is grounded in theories of culturally relevant pedagogy (CRP). READ MORE

  3. 3. Teaching with manipulatives for university Mathematics.

    University essay from Malmö universitet/Centrum för akademiskt lärarskap (CAKL)

    Author : Patrick Browne; [2023]
    Keywords : education; mathematics;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to investigate how teachers are using manipulatives in mathematics at advanced undergraduate level in universities. This will also showcase their usefulness in the classroom. The research is conducted via oral interviews of four teachers in the area. READ MORE

  4. 4. Interleaved Practice : The role of habits in the implementation of a new technique

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för pedagogik, didaktik och utbildningsstudier

    Author : Andrew Grant; [2023]
    Keywords : Interleaved practice; professional development; habits; stress; Interleaved practice; lärarutveckling; vanor; stress;

    Abstract : Teaching is a complex and stressful job and despite efforts to consolidate the understanding of professional development programs, the effectiveness of such programs in real schools remains inconsistent. In this study, habit is used to understand the barriers to teacher development when looking to implement “interleaved practice” in mathematics. READ MORE

  5. 5. Conform with the Wind : Processing short-term ensemble forecasts with conformal based methods for probabilistic wind-speed forecasting

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Simon Althoff; [2023]
    Keywords : wind-speed; probabilistic; forecasts; forecasting; ensemble; post-processing; conformal prediction; conformal predictive systems; quantile regression forest; non-exchangeable; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : Forecasting wind has always been an interesting subject, and as large parts of the world are relying more on wind for power production it is becoming even more important to have reliable forecasts. Probabilistic forecasts, where distributions are predicted in contrast to deterministic forecasts, are impor- tant for informed decision making. READ MORE
