Undersökningens syfte är att studera video som inslag på matematiklektioner genom att titta på elevers kunskapsutveckling, åsikter och lärares åsikter. En video om Pythagoras sats har producerats och visats i klassrummet och det har sedan gjorts diagnostiska prov i experiment- och en kontrollgrupper. Det har även gjorts en elevenkät och lärarintervju.  Resultatet visade att eleverna var ganska positiva till video men att filmen inte hjälpte något märkbart. Lärarna ansåg det vara svårt att få in video i matematiken eftersom det går så fort. Slutsatsen är att video kan användas som tillsats till undervisningen ibland, men inte som ensam ersättning till annan undervisning.

Genom tiderna har stora tekniska genomslag vid flera tillfällen integrerats i undervisning men varje ny teknik har sina styrkor och svagheter. Med datorns utveckling och ökad tillgänglighet till allmänheten har mängden tillgängligt läromedel (Clark &amp; Mayer, 2016) och antal studenter som läser kurser inom e-lärande ökat (Statista, 2015). E-lärande är, enligt Clark &amp; Mayers (2016) definition, lärande som sker genom digitala medium.En möjlighet som uppstår med e-lärande är att det finns många olika sätt att presentera material. Ett problem som uppstår då är att veta vilka komponenter som ska användas för att skapa bra e-lektioner som främjar elevers lärande. Målet med studien är att identifiera vilka komponenter som är viktiga för lärdesigner att använda i e-lektioner för att sedan, baserat på dessa komponenter, utveckla ett redigeringsverktyg ämnat för att skapa nya e-lektioner.För att identifiera de viktiga komponenterna genomfördes först en tematisk analys på e-lektioner från en lärplattform för att undersöka vilka komponenter lärdesigner använder sig av för att presentera material. Kvalitativa intervjuer genomfördes för att fånga lärdesignernas tankar och åsikter om komponenterna. Dessa användes tillsammans med resultatet från den tematiska analysen för att göra didaktiska val om vilka komponenter som är viktiga att använda i e-lektioner. Utvecklingen av redigeringsverktyget skedde genom att skapa flera prototyper och diskutera dessa med lärdesignerna för att bestämma komponenternas utseende i verktyget. Från den tematiska analysen framkom 7 teman med totalt 22 underteman. Resultatet från de didaktiska valen var 12 huvudsakliga komponenter, blanda annat: text, bild, video, prov och exempel. Redigeringsverktyget som byggdes innehåller alla 12 huvudsakliga komponenter men några komponenter saknar vissa delar som beskrevs i de didaktiska valen. Verktyget utvärderades av lärdesigner som ansåg att det fungerade men hade vissa brister som behöver åtgärdas.För att lärdesignerna ska kunna använda redigeringsverktyget för att skapa och publicera nya e-lektioner på plattformen behöver verktyget integreras i plattformen, alla komponenter behöver slutföras och användarvänligheten förbättras. / Throughout the ages, major technical breakthroughs have on several occasions been integrated into education, but each new technology has its strengths and weaknesses. With the development of the computer and its increased accessibility to the public, the amount of available teaching material (Clark &amp; Mayer, 2016) and the number of students who are studying courses in e-learning has increased (Statista, 2015). E-learning is then, according to Clark &amp; Mayer’s (2016) definition, learning that takes place through a digital medium. One possibility that arises with e-learning is that there are many ways of presenting material. One problem that arises then is to know which components should be used to create good e-lessons that promote student learning. The aim of the study is to identify which components are important for content creators to use in e-lessons and then, based on these components, develop an editing tool designed to create new e-lessons. To identify the appropriate components, a thematic analysis was first carried out on e-lessons from a learning platform in order to examine which components the instructional designers use to present material. Qualitative interviews were conducted to capture the instructional designers’ ideas and opinions regarding the components. These ideas and opinions were used together with the results of the thematic analysis to make didactic choices about which components are suitable for use in e-lessons. The development of the editing tool was done by creating multiple prototypes and discussing them with the instructional designers to determine the appearance of the components in the tool. From the thematic analysis, 7 themes emerged with a total of 22 sub-themes. The results of the didactic choices were 12 main components, for instance: text, image, video, quiz and examples. The editing tool that was built contains all 12 main components, but some components still lack some parts described in the didactic choices. The tool was evaluated by instructional designers who thought it worked but had some shortcomings that needs to be addressed.For the instructional designer to be able to use the editing tool to create and publish new e-lessons on the platform, the tool needs to be integrated into the platform, all components need to be completed and user experience improved.

The main purpose with this essay is to map the content of Lektion.se that focuses on religiouseducation adapted to the upper level of the compulsory school. My intention is to enlightfuture users of this website and inform them what to expect. The results show that there issome variety in the contents but sometimes it tends to focus more on one religion compare toothers. It also shows that theier is some variation regarding the level on the material. Forexample: Material that focuses on Islam often tend to be more basic and is often focused oncenceptions. However, their is some difficulties to come to a conclusion regarding if thecontent of Lektion.se is good or bad, even though that´s not the intention with this essay. Wesimply dont know how future users choose to handle the materials. Nevertheless, the overallresults shows that their is a clear focus on plain fact regarding each religion. The plain factthat is presented often tend to treat more general knowledge about the religion. But, as it willshow in the analysis, plain fact and focus on cenception doesn´t always mean a bad thingregarding students´ knowledge development. Sometimes it´s necessary.

<p>The main purpose of this study is to get an increased knowledge of the content on the Swedish website lektion.se. The study wants to find out if the content can relate to the syllabus for Swedish and the sociocultural view of learning. The questions it aims to answer are how the content of lessons in Swedish in grade 1-5 is related to the syllabus for Swedish and the sociocultural view of learning. This has been a study of text from lessons taken from the website. The study has been made with support from qualitative and quantitative analysis of text. The result shows that both a relation to the syllabus and the sociocultural view of learning is shown in the content, but in different grade. The study also shows diverseness in quality and content, which means that how the community is used, is vital for how it promotes a sociocultural view of learning and the intentions of the syllabus. Another result indicates that the discussion board rarely is used for communication about the lessons. To increase this use many problems of decoding between users of the community would be solved. Different kinds of group projects were the most common parts of the sociocultural view of learning; which indicates that this is the part in this perspective that has got most penetrating power among the teaching staff. Eventually my research shows that material with lessons that describes working with a theme, promotes the sociocultural view of learning and the intentions of the syllabus.</p>

Detta arbete utgår från tanken att utveckla undervisningen genom att integrera matematik med  andra ämnen. Projektet har genomförts genom att designa och utvärdera lektioner tillsammans med slöjd- och teknik- och hemkunskapslärare. Studien har utförts i åk 7–9, på en skola i Västmanland och en skola i Östergötland. Arbete syftar till att eleverna på högstadiet ska kunna dra nytta av sina matematiska kunskaper i reella situationer. Lektionerna bidrar till att utveckla elevernas tänkande och förmåga att kunna lösa olika problem. Vi har observerat lektioner, som de deltagande lärarna har genomfört, och då noterat moment som kan användas för vårt projekt. Efter det har vi intervjuat dem och de har fått bedöma sina kunskaper i den pedagogiska modellen, samt vilka möjligheter de har att genomföra integrering med andra ämnen. Enkätundersökning som vi genomfört, har visat deltagarnas intresse och engagemang för denna metod samt att de har motivation, att fortsätta och vidareutveckla sin undervisning enligt denna modell.

Syftet är att undersöka grundskollärares uppfattning av fysisk aktivitet med elever på de teoretiska lektionerna. Enkätundersökningen genomfördes via Facebook. Efter en genomgång av respondenternas svar framkom bland annat vikten av att skolans ledning aktivt ger sitt stöd grundskollärarna när det kom till fysisk aktivitet genomförd under de teoretiska lektionerna. Grundskollärares egen fysiska aktivitet har också betydelse för hur den fysiska aktiviteten får ta plats på de teoretiska lektionerna.
