Abstract:

There has been much debate over many years in the Australian Federal Parliament on the implementation of a national curriculum in mathematics. In 2004, the Government, under the direction of the then Minister for Education Brendon Nelson, initiated a national mathematics program for students in lower secondary high schools and primary schools. The Australian International Centre for Excellence was commissioned to implement a pilot program and called for expressions of interest to participate from high schools across the nation. At that time I was working as the Acting Head of the Mathematics D

Abstract:

Både nationella och internationella utvärderingar, samt betygsstatistiken visar att de svenska högstadieelevernas resultat i ämnet matematik dalar. Många elever uppfattar ämnet som svårt och granskningar visar att matematiklektionerna ofta är enformiga och mestadels består av elevernas eget arbete läroböckerna. Denna studies syfte är att undersöka vad eleverna själva har för attityder till matematiken, vad de anser om olika arbetssätt inom ämnet, samt hur de skulle vilja förbättra den matematikundervisning de får idag.

Over 20,000 Swedish lower high school students are currently learning mathematics in English but little research has been conducted in this area. This study looks into the question of how much second language learner training teachers teaching mathematics in English to Swedish speaking students have acquired and how many of those teachers are using effective teaching practices for second language learners. The study confirms earlier findings that report few teachers receive training in second language learning but indicates that some of the teaching practices shown to be effective with second

Med en fundamental grund i det svenska styrdokumentet LGR 11 har läromedlen genom undervisningen en betydande roll för att utveckla och gynna elevernas lärande. Undervisningen påverkas således av det ämnesinnehåll ett läromedel består av. Kunskaper i algebra har visat ha en betydande roll för elevers matematikinlärning.

This thesis reports on a three-part research project in which the images of mathematics and mathematicians held by lower secondary pupils were investigated. A survey tool which asked pupils to draw a picture of a mathematician at work, and which included a Likert-type scale and open-ended writing prompts, was designed and developed for use in an international study of pupils in five countries (n = 476). The results indicate that while some pupils hold stereotypical images in common, all pupils appear to know very little about mathematicians and the work they do. Mathematicians' invisibility to

With respect to achievement, the research literature primarily focuses on how women are deficient to men (e.g., Benbow & Stanley, 1980, 1983) and the roles affective attributes (e.g., Sherman, 1982; Fennema, Petersen, Carpenter & Lubinski, 1990) and stereotype threat (e.g., Quinn & Spencer, 2001; Steele & Aronson, 1995) have played in women’

Although more students are taking courses in statistics before leaving high school, the research base on teaching and learning statistics at the high school level has not accumulated as rapidly (Garfield & Chance, 2000). Very little is known about how secondary school students learn statistics, how the misconceptions they bring to the subject impede their learning, and what should be taught or assessed (Watson & Callingham, 2003).

In classrooms all over the world, there are students who fear the attention of both teachers and peers alike. Anxiety is a cause for such fears and in foreign language classrooms it can be prevalent. Foreign language anxiety (FLA) is a concept developed by Horwitz et al (1986) to describe the unique anxiety that arises in a foreign language learning situation. Anxious students are less prone to use their target language and feel less motivated in their language studies, both of which have a negative effect on their learning.

Abstract:

This thesis reports an investigation of individual differences in children's learning of a concept in mathematics, involving rates of change on linear graphs. Evidence in the literature suggests both that high levels of strategy variability are associated with conceptual change in mathematics and that there are individual differences in strategy variability. Therefore it is argued that differences in strategy variability can offer useful insight into children's learning of mathematics.
