Task Contexts in Dutch Mathematics Education
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2020)This chapter offers a description of task contexts in mathematics education in the Netherlands. International comparative studies show that the Dutch average percentage of mathematics tasks with real-life connections per ... -
A Taxonomy as a Vehicle for Learning
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2009)In this article, we describe the development of a classification system providing a framework for analysis of, and communication about, a subgroup of learning objects. The objects we consider are highly visual, animated, ... -

Themes within lecturers' views on the teaching of linear algebra
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)This paper reports on themes that arose in an investigation of university lecturers’ views on the teaching of linear algebra. This focus on themes was the initial part of a study concentrating on four areas: What is important ... -
Third grade students’ multimodal mathematical reasoning when collaboratively solving combinatorial problems in small groups
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The aim of this study is to investigate Norwegian primary school students’ multimodal mathematical reasoning when solving combinatorial problems. The data collection took place in four small groups of altogether thirteen ... -
Toward a More Sustainable Pre-service Teacher Education: A Study in Progress
(Chapter, 2015)Introduction This chapter presents some basic ideas and discussions in a currently running research project at the University of Agder, Norway. The project aims to develop a more holistic and sustainable teacher education ... -
A transition to online teaching and learning of mathematics in Norwegian higher education institutions: the perspectives of lecturers and students
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)This paper reports a study of university lecturers’ and students’ experiences of teaching and learning mathematics following the abrupt requirement to switch to online teaching in 2020. A goal of the study is to share ... -
Two properties of Müntz spaces
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)We show that Müntz spaces, as subspaces of C[0, 1], contain asymptotically isometric copies of c0 and that their dual spaces are octahedral. -
University students’ learning approaches : An adaptation of the revised two-factor study process questionnaire to Norwegian
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019) -
Using assessment for learning mathematics with mobile tablet based solutions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)This article discusses assessment for learning in mathematics subjects. Teachers of large classes face the challenge of regularly assessing students’ ongoing mathematical learning achievements. Taking the complexity of ... -
Using the interactive learning environment aplusix for teaching and learning school algebra: A research experiment in a middle school
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011)Most software tools that have been developed with the aim of helping students to learn school algebra have not yet achieved successful results in classroom. Almost all of them are menu-based systems that provide ... -

Viscous dissipation and thermoconvective instabilities in a horizontal porous channel heated from below
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010)A linear stability analysis of the basic uniform flow in a horizontal porous channel with a rectangular cross section is carried out. The thermal boundary conditions at the impermeable channel walls are: uniform incoming ... -
Voltage-Controlled High-Bandwidth Terahertz Oscillators Based on Antiferromagnets
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Producing compact voltage-controlled frequency generators and sensors operating in the terahertz (THz) regime represents a major technological challenge. Here, we show that noncollinear antiferromagnets (NCAFM) with kagome ... -
“Why do I have to learn this?” A case study on students’ experiences of the relevance of mathematical modelling activities
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)In this paper we explore how students can experience the relevance of mathematical modelling activities. In the literature we found that relevance is a connection among several issues (relevance of what? to whom? according ...
