Developing further support for in-service teachers’ implementation of a reasoning-and-proving activity and their identification of students’ level of mathematical argumentation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)This is the third in a series of papers focusing reasoning-and-proving. Participants were in-service teachers enrolled in a continuing university education programme in teaching mathematics for grades 5–10. Data were ... -
Exploring Students’ Metacognitive Knowledge: The Case of Integral Calculus
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020) -
«Svaret er 128 000, for verdien før er 64 000, og verdien doblar seg kvar gong x-aksen er forlenga» : Ein designstudie om eit tverrfagleg oppgåvesett i matematikk og samfunnskunnskap som støttar elevar si tolking av boblediagrammet til Gapminder
(Master thesis, 2020)The new Norwegian curriculum of 2020 has an increased focus on interdisciplinary education. In addition, numeracy is one of five basic skills all subjects are supposed to help the students develop. An important ... -
Delta- and Daugavet points in Banach spaces
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020) -
Exploring Realistic Mathematics Education in a Flipped Classroom Context at the Tertiary Level
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Flipped classroom (FC) pedagogical frameworks have recently gained considerable popularity, especially at secondary school levels. However, there are rich opportunities to explore FC at tertiary levels, but progress on the ... -
The object-tool duality in mathematical modelling - a framework to analyze students’ appropriation of Sankey diagrams to model dynamic processes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Students often do not experience the relevance of learning mathematics. This paper reports on an exploratory case study, in which a class of grade 8 students (n=35) was introduced to Sankey diagrams. The aim was to explore ... -
Daugavet- and delta-points in Banach spaces with unconditional bases
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021) -
Self-Efficacy Between Previous and Current Mathematics Performance of Undergraduate Students : An Instrumental Variable Approach to Exposing a Causal Relationship
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021) -
Isometric factorization of vector measures and applications to spaces of integrable functions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Let X be a Banach space, Σ be a σ-algebra, and be a (countably additive) vector measure. It is a well known consequence of the Davis-Figiel-Johnson-Pełczyński factorization procedure that there exist a reflexive Banach ... -
Application of an innovative alignment optimisation method to a cross-cultural mean comparison of teacher self-efficacy: A cross-country study
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Teacher self-efficacy is a crucial personal characteristic that is important not only for teachers’ well-being but also for the overall teaching and learning. However, the difficulty to ascertain scalar invariance in the ... -
Development of mathematics motivation scale: A preliminary exploratory study with a focus on secondary school students
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021) -
A commentary on the Special Issue “Innovations in measuring and fostering mathematical modelling competencies”
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)This is a commentary on the ESM 2021 Special Issue on Innovations in Measuring and Fostering Mathematical Modelling Competencies. We have grouped the ten studies into three themes: competencies, fostering, and measuring. ... -
Indefinite integrals from Wronskians and related linear second-order differential equations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Many indefinite integrals are derived for Bessel functions and associated Legendre functions from particular transformations of their differential equations which are closely linked to Wronskians. A large portion of the ... -
A letter from Malevich to Semevsky about Kovalevskaya
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021) -
Educating to inspire active learning approaches in mathematics in Norwegian universities
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)This is a report of an analysis of some of the data generated by a national survey of teaching approaches used in higher education mathematics courses. The overall purpose of the survey was to explore how widespread is ... -
Relations between reading comprehension and mathematical word problems of varying complexities : A cross-sectional study of the Norwegian national tests aiming to identify relations between reading comprehension and word problems, and if task properties affect student sub-groups differently
(Master thesis, 2021)This thesis aims to investigate the relationships between reading comprehension and mathematical word problems of varying complexity. There exist numerous studies on this relationship(Abedi & Lord, 2001; Bergqvist et al., ...
