Likheter och skillnader mellan högstadiet och gymnasiet inom ämnet matematik : en läromedelsanalys med fokus på området linjära funktioner / Similarities and differences between lower and upper secondary school in the subject of mathematics : A textbook analysis focusing on linear functionsLundell, Anton January 2024 (has links)
I det svenska skolsystemet sker olika stadieövergångar och övergången från högstadiet till gymnasiet är en sådan. I ämnet matematik visar tidigare forskning att en skillnad mellan dessa stadier är ett ökat studietempo och en förskjutning mot en mer formell matematik i det senare stadiet. Syftet med denna studie har varit att undersöka vilka innehållsmässiga likheter och skillnader det finns mellan dessa stadier inom området linjära funktioner. Detta har gjorts via en innehållsanalys av några läroböcker som används för respektive stadie då dessa kan ses som den potentiellt realiserade läroplanen. Vidare har studien baserats på Anna Sfards teori om operationell respektive strukturell begreppsuppfattning som ett sätt att få syn på och kontrastera det innehåll som behandlas i de olika läroböckerna. Resultatet visar att det finns likheter och skillnader mellan de olika stadierna, utifrån hur detta uttrycks via läroböckerna, och gymnasiet tenderar att fokusera mer på det strukturella i funktionsbegreppet medan högstadiet i högre grad betonar det operationella. Vidare finns det skillnader mellan de olika läroböckerna inom samma stadie där studien visar att beroende på kombination av läromedel för högstadiet respektive gymnasiet kan det bli olika grad av repetition på gymnasiet. Vissa kombinationer kan ge en större överlappning mellan innehållet i stadierna medan andra kombinationer riskerar att istället skapa ett glapp mellan stadierna. / In the Swedish school system, different stage transitions take place and the transition from lower secondary school to upper secondary school is one such. In the subject of mathematics, previous research shows that a difference in these stages is an increased pace of study and a shift towards more formal mathematics. The purpose of this study has been to investigate what content-related similarities and differences there are between junior high school and high school mathematics in the area of linear functions. This has been done via a content analysis of some textbooks that are used for the different stages, as these can be seen as the potentially implemented curriculum. Furthermore, the study has been based on Anna Sfard's theory of operational and structural concepts as a way to gain insight into and contrast the content covered in the various textbooks. The result shows that there are similarities and differences in the different stages, from how this is expressed via the textbooks, and the upper secondary school tends to focus more on the structural concept of function, while the lower secondary emphasizes the operational aspects to a greater degree. Furthermore, there are differences between the different textbooks within the same stage, where this study shows that depending on the combination of textbooks for lower- and upper secondary school, there may be different degrees of repetition in the latter. Some combinations can provide a greater overlap between the content of the stages, while other combinations risk instead creating a gap between the stages.

Öppna uppgifter i matematikboken: : En läromedelsanalys av tre valda matematikböcker i årskurs fyra / Open assignments in the mathematics textbook: : A textbook analysis of three selected mathematics books in fourth gradeStröm, Felicia, Tarkkinen, Frida January 2024 (has links)
Today's Swedish mathematics education is largely textbook-bound. At the same time, the textbooks are not reviewed, quality assured or checked by the curriculum in mathematics. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of open assignments and what abilities these helped the students develop. As a teacher, it is important to be aware of what tasks students encounter as well as what abilities these will train. Previous research shows that open-ended assignments are very helpful for the development of mathematical abilities for students. As an analytical starting point, Sullivan and Lilburn’s (2002) criteria for open-ended questions and MCRF's framework (Lithner et. al, 2010) for mathematical abilities were used. The analysis revealed that there was little data that fell under the criteria for open-ended questions. In the available tasks, they get to develop several mathematical abilities. “Favorit matematik” was the textbook that offered the greatest variety of tasks for developing mathematical abilities in the open-ended assignments that existed.

Využití textů Jana Nerudy ve výuce literatury / Use of Jan Neruda's Texts in Literature ClassesMrázková, Miloslava January 2017 (has links)
The theoretical part of the master's thesis first deals with the context of Jan Neruda's life and work and with the representation of Neruda's texts in post-revolutionary reading books for junior high school and high school. This part is based on the results presented in the author's bachelor's thesis Work of Jan Neruda in reading books. The next chapter follows the formation of Jan Neruda's image in literature textbooks for junior high school and high school published after 1989. The analysis of reading books and textbooks shows the remaining emphasis on the writer's poetic work even though his contribution to the field of feuilleton and modern prose is considered to be more important. The results of this analysis are used to elucidate the aim of the thesis, which is a new selection of Neruda's texts and the creation of the author's own textbook explanatory texts emphasizing the writer's feuilletons and prose work. The practical part of the thesis contains a questionnaire "mini-research" of pupils' and students' preconceptions regarding the personality and work of Jan Neruda. This research together with another "mini-research" of different teachers' conceptions of teaching about Jan Neruda form the basis for accomplishing the aims of the thesis. The last chapter contains the author's selection of...

Comparison of Linear Functions in Middle Grades Textbooks from Singapore and the United StatesFowler, Linda D 27 March 2015 (has links)
Many U.S. students do not perform well on mathematics assessments with respect to algebra topics such as linear functions, a building-block for other functions. Poor achievement of U.S. middle school students in this topic is a problem.
U.S. eighth graders have had average mathematics scores on international comparison tests such as Third International Mathematics Science Study, later known as Trends in Mathematics and Science Study, (TIMSS)-1995, -99, -03, while Singapore students have had highest average scores. U.S. eighth grade average mathematics scores improved on TIMMS-2007 and held steady onTIMMS-2011. Results from national assessments, PISA 2009 and 2012 and National Assessment of Educational Progress of 2007, 2009, and 2013, showed a lack of proficiency in algebra. Results of curriculum studies involving nations in TIMSS suggest that elementary textbooks in high-scoring countries were different than elementary textbooks and middle grades texts were different with respect to general features in the U.S.
The purpose of this study was to compare treatments of linear functions in Singapore and U.S. middle grades mathematics textbooks. Results revealed features currently in textbooks. Findings should be valuable to constituencies who wish to improve U.S. mathematics achievement.
Portions of eight Singapore and nine U.S. middle school student texts pertaining to linear functions were compared with respect to 22 features in three categories: (a) background features, (b) general features of problems, and (c) specific characterizations of problem practices, problem-solving competency types, and transfer of representation. Features were coded using a codebook developed by the researcher. Tallies and percentages were reported. Welch's t-tests and chi-square tests were used, respectively, to determine whether texts differed significantly for the features and if codes were independent of country.
U.S. and Singapore textbooks differed in page appearance and number of pages, problems, and images. Texts were similar in problem appearance. Differences in problems related to assessment of conceptual learning. U.S. texts contained more problems requiring (a) use of definitions, (b) single computation, (c) interpreting, and (d) multiple responses. These differences may stem from cultural differences seen in attitudes toward education. Future studies should focus on density of page, spiral approach, and multiple response problems.

Textbook Cost-lowering Initiatives: An Exploration Of Community College Faculty ExperiencesDunn, Susan 01 January 2014 (has links)
Faculty have been identified as critical players in the implementation of textbook affordability efforts at community colleges. Furthermore, emerging lower-cost alternatives to traditional textbooks present a wide and growing range of options that may help further efforts. This study sought to examine more closely the role of faculty with respect to textbook cost-lowering initiatives. The researcher utilized in-depth interviews to gain a rich picture of the experiences, attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors of nine full-time community college faculty as they confronted textbook affordability efforts and textbook alternatives. The interview data were analyzed using a thematic analysis process. Five major themes and three minor themes were identified. The five major themes were: (a) campus administrators support, but do not mandate, efforts; (b) frequent edition revisions frustrate faculty; (c) departmental approaches to textbook selection vary; (d) content, then affordability, drive selection choices; and (e) faculty have mixed feelings about textbook alternatives. The three minor themes were: (a) faculty efforts to save students money are thwarted by campus bookstores and financial aid policies; (b) English faculty benefit from public domain readings; and (c) more faculty participating in textbook selection means more difficulty deciding on a text. Implications and recommendations were offered for community college leaders, campus bookstores, publishers, and future researchers.

模糊系統評估-以高中教科書評選為例 / Fuzzy System Evaluation-with an Example of Textbook Selection劉昌國, Liu, Chang Kuo Unknown Date (has links)
本研究的主要目的,在應用模糊理論,建立改進傳統系統分析模式。並以高中教科書評選為例,首先使用評鑑因素重要程度模糊問卷及教科書評鑑表,建立因素模糊相對權重矩陣與模糊評估矩陣,同時以模糊眾數和模糊評估與傳統方法進行比較分析。我們經由實際評選發現,應用模糊評選教科書,比傳統評選教科書來得合理。在尋求適當的共識時,模糊統計較能適時反應出人們實際的想法。 / The purpose of this study is to develop a system analysis by fuzzy theory. A comparison was made between fuzzy sample mode, fuzzy evaluation and the conventional method about textbook selection. In order to establish the factor fuzzy relation weight matrix and to estimate fuzzy evaluation matrix, we use the fuzzy weight and evaluation questionnaire first. It was found, by way of the actual evaluation, that the application of fuzzy evaluation is better than the traditional evaluation. While looking for appropriate consensus, fuzzy statistics is a better reflection of popular idea.

Den politiska läroboken : Bilden av USA och Sovjetunionen i norska, svenska och finländska läroböcker under Kalla kriget / Political textbooks : The depiction of the USA and the Soviet Union in Norwegian, Swedish, and Finnish schoolbooks during the Cold WarHolmén, Janne Sven-Åke January 2006 (has links)
During the Cold War, Norway was a member of NATO, Sweden was neutral but depended on Western support in the event of a crisis, while Finland's foreign policy priority was to win and retain the Soviet Union's confidence. The purpose of the thesis is to study whether the three small states' different foreign policy choices had consequences for the ways in which the Soviet Union and the USA were depicted in school textbooks for history, geography, and social sciences in the period 1930 to 2004. To this end, a theory derived from small states' strategies to maintain their independence was applied to textbook production. The study demonstrates that there was a link between small state foreign policy and textbooks' accounts of the USA and Soviet Union. Swedish and Norwegian textbooks portray international conflicts from a legalistic perspective, taking the part of small states exposed to superpower aggression such as Vietnam and Afghanistan. In Finnish textbooks, however, an interest in defending small state's rights yielded to the need to demonstrate their goodwill towards the Soviet Union, which was described in far less critical terms than in Swedish and Norwegian textbooks. In time, in the name of neutrality, depictions of the USA also became increasingly uncritical. All three Nordic states had government authorities charged with inspecting and approving school textbooks. Foreign policy's chief influence on textbooks was not effected by direct oversight, however; instead, it was established indirectly by means of the social climate, which determined what was considered politically correct in the three countries, and it was to this that the textbooks' authors adapted their work. Textbooks are often said to be conservative and slow to change, but the thesis shows that in parts they were politically sensitive, rapidly adapting to changes in what society held to be politically correct.

Les ressources didactiques : typologie d’usages en lien avec la méthode historique et l’intervention éducative d’enseignants d’histoire au secondaireBoutonnet, Vincent 06 1900 (has links)
Les manuels d’histoire ont souvent fait l’objet d’analyses concernant leur contenu et leur qualité, mais rarement leurs usages en classe. Cette thèse vise à décrire et analyser comment des enseignants d’histoire du Québec au secondaire utilisent le manuel et toute autre ressource didactique. Le problème consiste à mieux connaître ce qui se passe en classe depuis l’implantation de la réforme curriculaire, en 2001, et comment les conceptions des enseignants influencent leurs pratiques en lien avec l’exercice de la méthode historique. Ce travail décrit des pratiques enseignantes selon leur intervention éducative, les ressources didactiques utilisées et l’activité de l’élève en classe. Pour ce faire, la collecte de données est réalisée au travers d’un sondage en ligne (n= 81), d’observations en classe et d’entrevues (n=8) avec les participants. Les enseignants d’histoire utilisent souvent le manuel, mais leur intervention n’est pas structurée par son contenu ou ses exercices. Les cahiers d’exercices ou le récit de l’enseignant semblent structurer principalement leurs interventions. En fait, leurs conceptions sur l’enseignement et l’apprentissage en histoire déterminent le plus souvent l’usage du manuel et des autres ressources didactiques d’une manière traditionnelle ou d’une manière qui exerce authentiquement la méthode historique. Afin de décrire ces différents usages, la thèse propose une typologie qui distingue les différentes modalités mises en place afin d’utiliser les ressources didactiques et exercer la méthode historique. Trois principaux types sont énoncés : intensif, extensif et critique. Un quatrième type a été ajouté afin de mieux nuancer les différentes pratiques enseignantes rencontrées : extensif-méthodique. Ce dernier type s’explique par une pratique enseignante qui concilie les types extensif et critique selon les besoins de l’enseignant. La thèse souligne la persistance de pratiques transmissives et magistrocentrées qui limitent un exercice authentique de la méthode historique, alors que le curriculum vise un enseignement constructiviste et que plus de ressources sont disponibles pour les enseignants. / History textbooks are mainly analyzed for their content and quality but not for their real use in classrooms. This thesis aims to describe and analyze how high school history teachers in Quebec use textbooks and other instructional resources. The issue is to know what is going on into classrooms since the new curriculum is in effect and how teachers’ beliefs influence their practices related to the development of historical method skills. This work describes the teaching practices according to their educational intervention, learning resources used and the student’s activities during class. The data was collected with an online survey (n= 81), classroom observations and interviews (n= 8) with the participants. Teachers often use textbooks, but are not automatically led by its content or exercises. Workbooks or teacher’s narrative seem to mainly structure their interventions. Yet, the belief system about teaching and learning history more specifically leads teachers to use textbooks in a traditional way or in a way that fosters historical method. To describe these various uses, the thesis proposes a typology that distinguishes the different modalities put in place to use learning resources and perform historical method. Three main types are described: intensive, extensive and critical. A fourth type was added in order to better explain the different teaching practices encountered: extensive-methodical. The latter type is explained by a teaching practice that combines extensive and critical types related to the needs of the teacher. The thesis points out the persistence of transmissive and teacher-centered pratices limiting authentic historical method exercise while curriculum aims a constructivist way and that more learning resources are available for teachers.

Gramatický a lexikální rozbor učebnice čínštiny N. A. Spěšněva Vvěděnije v kitajskij jazyk / Grammatical and Lexical Analysis of the Chinese Textbook by N. A. SpeshnevŠmejkalová, Natalie January 2013 (has links)
The major objective of this thesis is to conduct complex grammatical and lexical analysis of the Chinese language textbook by N. A. Speshnev Vvedenye v kitayskiy yazik. Results of the analysis are compared with textbook written by Oldrich Svarny Introduction to the Study of colloquial Chinese (Uvod do studia hovorove cinstiny) and A Frequency Dictionary of Modern Chinese. Analysis and comparison results serve as a basis for evaluating the coverage of basic vocabulary and grammar used in Speshnev's textbook and its suitability for first-year students of Sinology. The results of lexical analysis include a list of all lexical items used in the textbook, as well as the information on their grammatical function characteristics, meanings, usage and frequency. Grammatical analysis results provide an overview of all grammatical constructions and features that are present in the textbook. Important part of grammatical analysis is introduction of comprehensive view on individual grammar features and comparison of their various perceptions in different grammatical systems. In conclusion, the positives and negatives of Speshnev textbook are evaluated and new suggestions to its use in complex language teaching are presented. Key words Chinese, colloquial Chinese, Chinese grammar, grammatical analysis, lexical...
