In this working group, we use data from our investigation of storylines available to minoritised mathematics students. We invite participants to reflect on their own research projects that investigate patterns of interaction. Together we consider the constructs of storylines and other alternatives, the challenges of identifying them, and the insights that become available due to our methodological choices.

Research into language, work, and migration has evolved rapidly during the past decade. The majority of studies focus on contemporary cases. However, work migration and linguistic diversity in the workplace are not phenomena solely of the early 21st century; many workplaces have been sites of multilingual encounters throughout history. While this has been acknowledged in contemporary studies (e.g., ...

Access to mentors for education in surgical subspecialties is a challenge in many hospitals. Videoconferencing (VC) provides real-time communication between mentors and mentees despite dispersed geographical locations. In Norway, an educational pathway of a specific laparoscopic surgical procedure was carried out using VC. The surgical training lasted for three months and was video recorded. The ...

Even after many decades of productive research, problem solving instruction is still considered inefective. In this study we address some limitations of extant problem solving models related to the phenomenon of insight during problem solving. Currently, there are two main views on the source of insight during problem solving. Proponents of the frst view argue that insight is the consequence of ...

This paper shows new contributions in the detection of skin cancer, where we present the use of a customized hyperspectral system that captures images in the spectral range from 450 to 950 nm. By choosing a 7 × 7 sub-image of each channel in the hyperspectral image (HSI) and then taking the mean and standard deviation of these sub-images, we were able to make fits of the resulting curves. These ...

Dette kapitlet tar for seg nye utfordringer vi står overfor gjennom de digitale nettverk med global rekkevidde. Digitale nett skaper muligheter, men åpner også for betydelig risiko, sårbarhet og problemer. Internett og internasjonaliseringen gjør det nødvendig å tenke nytt om dannelse. Hva er nettvett og digital dømmekraft? Hvilken viten behøves for å kunne orientere seg i kunnskapssamfunnet? ...

Today, many would assume that Charles Darwin absolutely rejected any claim of intelligent design in nature.However, review of his initial writings reveals that Darwin accepted some aspects of this view. His conceptualization of design was founded on both the cosmological and the teleological ideas from classical natural theology. When Darwin discovered the dynamic process of natural selection, ...

Educational use of technology is regularly assessed, and results often show a gap between educational policies and what is actually practiced. This chapter will help clarify how teacher educators experience the changing educational contexts due to the digital revolution, how their meaning-making shifts, and how outside forces influence those processes. The results are based on comparative ...

The meaning of democratic participation in Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) remains vague and difficult to implement. Thus, the aim of this paper is to contribute to this gap of knowledge by shed light on the meaning of democratic participation in relation to the best interests of the child, by analysing General Comment No. 14 (2013). The research uses theories on democracy in ECEC ...

De gode resultatene av en sterkere vektlegging på en praksisorientert lærerutdanning representerer et betydelig utviklingspotensial for lærerutdanning generelt. Den desentraliserte utdanninga opplevdes som – og var – relevant og meningsfull for alle aktører. I NOKUT’s vurdering av den stasjonære allmennlærerutdanninga i 2006 gir studentene uttrykk for at praksisopplæringa forbereder dem for dårlig ...
