Att Googla till upplysning : En analys av hur buddhismen framställs på webbsidorna NE.se, SO-rummet och Wikipedia

Nguyen, Dong January 2020 (has links)
Studier visar att allt fler elever använder internet för informationssökning till sina studier. En del webbsidor som SO-rummet och Nationalencyklopedin.se (NE.se) har som grund att vara komplement till läromedel i undervisningen, andra webbsidor som Wikipedia (svenska versionen) har som mål att endast förmedla kunskap. Ämnesplanen för religionsämnet har som krav att eleven ska lära sig om hur religion uttrycks i både teori och praktik, men också hur den efterlevs av människor i Sverige och deras hemland. Läroböckers framställning av buddhismen har fått mycket kritik för att innehållet inte uppfyller flera av ämnesplanen och läroplanens krav. När elever vänder sig till internet för information om buddhismen är det viktig att undersöka de mest besökta webbsidornas framställning av buddhismen.I detta uppsats har tre populära webbsidor, NE.se, SO-rummet och Wikipedia undersökts för hur buddhismen framställs och hur väl framställningen uppfyller ämnesplanens krav på förståelse av religionsutövandet. Resultatet visar på att samtliga webbsidor simplifiera buddhismen olika begrepp och framställer religionen som en homogen tro. Endast Wikipedia uppnår delvis delar av ämnesplanens kunskapskrav, men är i övrigt ofullständigt i framställningen av buddhismen liksom SO-rummet och NE.se.

Citation needed : the perceived credibility of Wikipedia among high education students

Mattebo, Robin January 2013 (has links)
This thesis is called “Citation needed – the perceived credibility of Wikipedia among higheducation students”. The purpose of this thesis is to discover the opinions about the credibilityof Wikipedia among high education students. The assumption is that students are aware ofbeing source criticizing and do not directly cite Wikipedia in academic works. The main research question is: what are the views of the perceived credibility of theinformation on Wikipedia among high education students? The theoretical framework is made out of previous research specific related to Wikipediabut also theories around memory creation, assessment of sources and credibility. The method used is qualitative, with semi-structured interviews. The material consists ofinterviews with nine participants. Their answers are transcribed and presented in themes andthen analyzed. The main results are that the perceived credibility of the information on Wikipedia amongthe students is that it is fairly credible and their views of the encyclopedia are that it is fastupdated and neutral. They also believe that Wikipedia isn’t for academic usage so in allaspects the students do not make a thoroughly assessment of the encyclopedia’s credibility. Further implications are that Wikipedia would be ruined if anyone tried to make itacademic. Wikipedia fulfills an educational tool for the public even though it is not alwayscorrect. It is important to be reminded that Wikipedia contains errors but no other source iscompletely flawless either. In that sense it would be smarter to start a new encyclopedia, ifthere is such a need, perhaps open for professors only and would in the end only containvetted information, however mostly/only in academic fields. The length of the thesis is 56 pages in total and approximately 21 000 words. Keywords: Wikipedia, encyclopedias, source criticism, credibility, Nationalencyclopedin,students, in-depth interviews.

Frihet under ansvar eller sann och opåverkad kunskap : Trovärdighet hos källor och hur den bedöms av två användargrupper. / Freedom under responsibility or true and unaffected knowledge : Reliability of sources and how it is valued by two user groups.

Larsson, Josefine January 2012 (has links)
This essay is investigating what type of sources we trust, depending on how the information in these sources is created and provided. To exemplify, the sources Wikipedia and Nationalencyklopedin (the Swedish National Encyclopedia) were used, each one representing different approaches. The first is a representation of the collective intelligence, where anyone can contribute with their knowledge to the public – freedom under responsibility. The latter represents peer-reviewed knowledge, desirable enough to have people paying for it– true and unaffected.Based on theories of source criticism, collective intelligence, expertise and the different generations of digital natives and digital immigrants, two focus groups were conducted and analysed. A group of upper secondary school students and a group of retirees were presented with encoded texts from both encyclopedias, which they analysed critically from their opinion on reliability and objectivity. Their reasoning shows a well demonstrated awareness of the need of a critical reasoning and information literacy when dealing with different sources. But the question remained, particularly in regards to the students, if they do after all practice these skills in their information retrieval. / Program: Bibliotekarie

"De är inte längre trögtänkta bönder" : En studie av pragmatiska betydelser i texter från populärvetenskapen och Nationalencyklopedin

Berndtson, Erik January 2020 (has links)
Denna undersökning analyserar mängden inferenser i texter från populärvetenskap och uppslagsverk. Inferenser har därför sammanställts från fyra artiklar, vilka berör de två ämnena Alexander den store och Slaget vid Kursk. Två texter från vartdera ämnet valdes från den populärvetenskapliga tidningen Världens historia som har jämförts med två motsvarande texter från Nationalencyklopedin. Teoretiska begrepp från grundläggande pragmatik och relevansteori (relevance theory) har använts i analysen, och iakttagelserna har sedan jämförts för att se hur det pragmatiska textbruket liknar eller skiljer sig åt mellan texttyperna. Analysen visar att de populärvetenskapliga texterna innehöll en större mängd inferenser än de i Nationalencyklopedin. Alltså användes också ett pragmatiskt språkbruk i större utsträckning i de underhållande texterna än i de sakliga i detta material.

Lärande utan läraren : Internetkällors framställningar av judendomar / Teaching Without the Teacher : Depictions of Judaisms in Online Sources

Mårtensson, Christoffer January 2023 (has links)
As the digital age takes root, more and more students use the internet to acquire information for their studies. Common sources in Sweden are online encyclopedias like Wikipedia, SO-rummet and Nationalencyklopedin (NE). Seeing as these online encyclopedias can fill the role of teaching aids it is prudent to examine their contents to evaluate if they hold up to the standards established by the Swedish National Agency for Education (Skolverket). Focusing on the subject “religion” and the topic “Judaism”, this study evaluates the contents and framing used in the main articles about Judaism from both Swedish and English versions of the collaborative encyclopedia Wikipedia as well as the Swedish sources NE which is state sponsored and the commercial actor SO-rummet. Additionally this paper discusses how these sources compare with the central contents of the course Religionsvetenskap 1 (Religious Studies 1) for Swedish upper secondary school. The results show that the articles from NE and Swedish Wikipedia mostly state facts without elaborating and are more likely to give the reader a homogeneous picture of Judaism. SO-rummet is the most beginner friendly source while English Wikipedia is the most nuanced but perhaps most difficult source for students to comprehend. Generally, the sources fail to portray diversity within the tradition, with the exception being English Wikipedia. The sources that compare the best with the central contents for Religionsvetenskap 1 were in the following in descending order: English Wikipedia, SO-rummet, Swedish Wikipedia and lastly NE. This is problematic because previous studies show that students have greater faith in NE than they do in Wikipedia. It is worth keeping in mind however, that students are likely to use more than one source, especially if it is a group assignment. It is up to the teacher to recommend good sources, fill in the blanks and to guide the students with their own teaching.
