Denna studie syftar till att undersöka gymnasielevers upplevelse av musik och låttexter som ett didaktiskt redskap inom ramen för samhällskunskapsämnet. Studien avser också att öka förstå- elsen för de faktorer som påverkar elevernas upplevelse av detta didaktiska redskap, samt deras upplevelse av estetiska läroprocesser på gymnasienivå. Det teoretiska ramverket utgår från två motstridiga teorier om hur undervisningen och läraren bör förhålla sig till elevernas livsvärldar. Åtta intervjuer ligger till grund för studiens resultat. Intervjuerna föregicks av en lektion där musik integrerades som en del i undervisningen. Resultatet pekar på att elevernas upplevelse av musik och låttexter i samhällskunskapsundervisningen i hög grad är kopplade till en mängd individuella faktorer. Aspekter som elevens inlärningspreferenser, livsvärld, personlighet, in- tresse och motivation framstod här som betydande. Slutsatsen visar dels att metoden tycktes göra störst skillnad för elever med både låg inre och yttre motivation. Slutligen belyser studien å ena sida betydande skillnader i elevernas upplevelse och åsikter om undervisning generellt, men visar å andra sidan att de förenas i åsikten att en god undervisning karakteriseras av vari- ation, elevaktiva metoder, tydlighet och struktur.
This study aims to examine upper-secondary school students' experience of music and song lyrics as a didactic tool within the social studies subject. Furthermore, the study aims to increase the understanding of factors that affect students' experience of the aesthetic learning process. The theoretical framework is based on two conflicting theories about how teaching and teachers should relate to the students' life worlds. Eight interviews form the basis of this study's results. The interviews were preceded by a lesson where music was integrated as a part of the teaching. The results indicate that the students' experience of music and lyrics in social studies teaching, were to a large extent linked to a multitude of factors. Aspects such as the student's learning preferences, life world, personality, interests and motivation appeared to be significant factors that affected their experience. The method seemed to make the largest difference for students with both low internal and external motivation. On one hand the study highlights the differences in the students' experience and opinions on teaching in general. On the other hand, the students unanimously described good teaching to be characterized by varied and student-active methods in combination with lucidity and structure.

Annotation:

An individual’s years in college are a time of trial and transformation. This dissertation examined college students’ self-created accounts of their time in college in order to identify students’ significant meaning-making activities during those years. Four primary areas of student life were investigated: the rules that students were expected to adhere to, the ways in which students and their class cohorts antagonized one another, hazing, and class competitions. A comparative historical approach was used to analyze student-created accounts of college life in the years 1871-1941. Archival research at a geographically diverse sample of fourteen colleges and universities provided primary source materials created by students, including correspondence, diaries, photographs, and scrapbooks. Collectively, these sources affirm that students derived their significant meaning-making experiences from their extracurricular activities. An additional dimension of the study proposed an extension of the work of sociologist Burton Clark on organizational sagas. An analysis of students’ self-reported experiences suggest that Clark’s notion of organizational sagas extends beyond the bounds of discrete institutions, reaching down to the level of individuals and upward to college students as a collective entity.

Annotation:

Integrating environmental learning into mainstream education is an important countermeasure to address the challenges to the sustainability of the earth and children's integrated development. To be effectively integrated into mainstream education, an environmental learning program should be designed in ways that elicit the support of stakeholders, while at the same time without scarifying the environmental learning goals. The purpose of this study therefore is to explore an environmental learning model that meets the above mentioned goal using a case study design.Key principles for designing such environmental learning programs are identified first based on the theoretical framework. Then, the actual enactment of these principles in a practical setting and the effects on students in terms of environmental learning goals and traditional educational goals are explored through a case study of a pilot environmental learning program designed with these guiding principles. It presents a detailed portrait of the design process, the actual enacted curriculum, and the experiences of key stakeholders with this environmental learning program. It also evaluates this program's effects on students in environmental literacy (the environmental learning goal), academic achievement and social development (the traditional educational goals). The enactment of the guiding principles and factors that influence the enactment of this program are discussed thereafter. It concludes with the construction of the curriculum integration through environmental learning model based on the case study and a discussion of the model in light of the curriculum integration framework.

Covid-19 pandemic has brought many social disturbances and changes into our daily life.With the expansion of the pandemic all countries have established new restrictions andrules around the world. One which seems a bit more challenging is the social distancing(physical distancing). In this research, we are studying the impacts of social distancing onthe social life of students. The aim of this research is to study how the students areaffected by the covid-19 restrictions and how they feel affected by the restrictions. Wehave used a qualitative research method for this study, and conducted a semi-structuredinterview involving 10 participants who are currently studying at Linköping University.Our qualitative results have guided us to the understanding that due to the restrictionscaused by covid-19 students have experienced some difficulties in maintaining their sociallife quality and keeping their daily routine and health balanced. According to the data thathave been collected from this study, indicates that the effects of social distancing haveaffected most students' both their social lives and well-being.

Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur elever med läs- och skrivsvårigheter upplever det att delta i en intensivundervisningsinsats i läsning. En sådan insats innebär att eleverna varje dag under 4-6 veckor jobbar 20 minuter med strukturerad undervisning som har syftet att utveckla deras läsförmåga. Den forskning som jag har funnit om intensivundervisning i läsning visar samstämmigt på att liknande insatser ger goda resultat. Däremot tar inte denna forskning upp hur eleverna upplever själva intensivundervisningen. Därför har jag valt att undersöka några elevers upplevelser av detta och fokuserat på upplevelsen av arbetssättet, upplevelsen av den egna läsutvecklingen samt hur det är att gå ifrån klassrummet för att delta i intensivundervisningen. Studien bygger på kvalitativa intervjuer med sex elever i årskurs 4 som har deltagit i en intensivundervisningsinsats i läsning. Varje elev har intervjuats enskilt och deras berättelser har sedan analyserats utifrån en livsvärldsfenomenologisk ansats ur ett elevperspektiv. Resultatet visar att dessa elever är positiva till att arbeta med intensivundervisning i läsning och upplever själva att de har utvecklat sin läsförmåga genom den. De beskriver sin egen utveckling i relation till det material de har arbetat med samt vad det har inneburit för dem både i skolan och hemma. Eleverna tar upp både positiva och negativa upplevelser av att gå ifrån klassrummet för att delta i intensivundervisningen.
The purpose of this study is to examine how students with reading and writing disabilities experienced participation in intensive instruction in reading. Such an achievement means that students every day for 4-6 weeks is working about 20 minutes with structured teaching with the aim of developing their reading skills. The research about intensive instruction in reading coherently show that similar achievements are producing good results. In contrast, this research does not include how students experience intensive instruction. Therefore, I have chosen to examine some students' experiences of this and focused on the experience of working, the experience of their own reading development and how it is to leave the classroom to participate in intensive instruction. The study is based on qualitative interviews with six students in grade 4 who have participated in intensive instruction in reading. Each student was interviewed individually and their stories were then analysed based on a life-world phenomenological approach from a student perspective. The result shows that these students are positive towards working with intensive instruction in reading and experience themselves having developed their reading skills through it. They describe their own development in relation to the material they have worked with and what it has meant to them both in school and at home. The students mention both positive and negative experiences of leaving the classroom to participate in intensive instruction.

Syftet med arbetet är att utforska vad självförtroende påverkas av i samband med musikutövande och lärande i musik. Metoden som används är kvalitativa halvstrukturerade intervjuer och den teoretiska utgångspunkten är livsvärldsfenomenologi. I bakgrundskapitlet beskrivs ett antal teorier och tidigare forskning som är till hjälp för att förstå vad som formar och påverkar självförtroende. I resultatet framkommer två huvudkategorier: ”Mänskliga möten” och ”Vägen framåt”. Under första rubriken redovisas hur bekräftelse från andra, jämförelser med andra och läraren påverkar självförtroendet. Under nästa rubrik redovisas hur vikten av utveckling, lagom progression på uppgifter samt vidden av insikt på okunskap påverkar självförtroendet. I sista kapitlet diskuteras resultatet i relation till tidigare teorier och forskning.
The aim of this study is to examine what self-confidence is affected by in connection with music performing and learning in music. The method used is qualitative semi-structured interviews and the theoretical perspective is life-world phenomenology. The background chapter describes research and a number of theories that support the understanding of what shapes and influences individuals’ self-confidence in music performance. The results reveal two main categories: ”Human encounters” and ”The road ahead”. The first headline include descriptions of how confirmation from others, comparisons with others and teachers affect self-confidence. The next headline shows how the importance of development, moderate progression of tasks and wideness of insight in ignorance affects self-confidence. In the discussion the result is discussed in relation to previously theories and research.

Annotation:

In recent times, there has been a strong push for higher education institutions to offer more online courses to cater for students who otherwise would be denied university education. While this may benefit the many distance education students, the take-up rate of totally online education by current on-campus students remains uncertain. At the same time, many lecturers have started to design and develop online teaching material for their courses; many do so without the support of their employer - the university that they work in. The purpose of this study is two-fold. Firstly, to gain an insight into how on-campus students perceive online learning and to examine their readiness and willingness to make the shift from conventional classroom learning to online learning with no face-to-face contact. Secondly, to gain an insight into how lecturers approach online teaching; so as to better understand the problems they face when switching to a teaching mode that is quite different from the classroom teaching they are familiar with. The outcomes of this study will provide us with a better understanding of how lecturers and on-campus students perceive online teaching and learning. Understanding students' level of readiness to take part in online learning and their willingness to switch from the conventional classroom to cyberspace will assist universities in making decisions on the future direction of online courses. This is particularly important to those universities that intend to replace conventional classroom teaching with online courses. A better understanding of the problems faced by students and lecturers in online teaching and learning will also enable university administrators to ensure adequate resources are being allocated and the right level of support is provided.
Lecturers' experiences in designing and developing online courses also assist in forming guidelines, policies and procedures for others to follow. An exploratory study was carried out on five groups of students and their lecturers to investigate their perceptions of online teaching and learning. Each group of students was enrolled in a specific subject unit when the study was carried out. All of the students were studying on-campus pursuing bachelor or postgraduate qualifications in various disciplines across the university. Students from each group were asked to complete a questionnaire during one of their lecture sessions. Their lecturers were interviewed individually. Both quantitative and qualitative analyses were applied on the collected data. Results of the study found that the majority of the students had sufficient knowledge at using the Internet and were very positive about online teaching and learning. While they would have liked to see more online teaching and learning used in their courses, they would not want it to replace classroom teaching and learning. The lecturers felt that online teaching - the development of online course material and the constant monitoring of students progress, was a time consuming but rewarding task. They would like to see their efforts in taking up such challenges recognised and rewarded by their institution and more resources be provided to assist them in further development in the area.
In conclusion, the outcomes of this study show that if given the choice, not all oncampus students would like to enrol in online courses. The majority of them would still prefer classroom learning supplemented by online learning. Universities should invest in online teaching and learning with more resources allocated to assisting lecturers in online teaching. However, universities contemplating using online courses to replace traditional classroom teaching may find themselves losing their existing on-campus students.

In this project, instruction in Latin and Greek-based prefixes, suffixes, and root words was implemented to determine its effects on sixth-grade students' understanding and long-term memory of life science vocabulary, their ability to predict the meaning of new vocabulary, and their attitudes and motivation regarding learning vocabulary, as well as my teaching and attitudes to teaching. Latin and Greek morphemes were taught, recorded, and used in prediction and learning exercises. Pre and postunit and delayed assessments and concept interviews, pre and posttreatment surveys, my observations and journaling, peer observations, and a self-evaluation were analyzed. Results regarding student understanding and long-term memory were inconclusive. The data showed that students' ability to predict new vocabulary meanings improved. Students' attitudes and motivation were not affected and my attitudes were at first positive, but later declined.

Annotation:

In mathematics curricula teachers often find the more or less implicit request to link the taught subjects to the previous knowledge of the students, for example using word problems from everyday life. But in today’s multicultural and multisocial society teachers can no longer assume that the children they teach have a more or less equal background and thus everyday live can have a very different meaning for different children. Furthermore there is evidence that good previous knowledge in arithmetic can hinder the approach to other mathematical subjects, like algebra. In this paper I want to provide a brief overview on how previous knowledge in arithmetic can affect student\'s access to algebra and therefore present an early algebra teaching project which introduces elementary school children to algebraic notation by measurement in an action-oriented way. Thereby the chosen approach to algebra explicitly does not come back to the student\'s previous arithmetical knowledge but additionally may support non-proficient students in obtaining more insight in the structure of calculations and hence may help them to have more success in solving calculations and word problems.

Annotation:

The aim of the study is to examine factors influencing students’ feelings of pleasure or pain associated with school mathematics. Own experience of students’ frustration about mathematics and concern about students not reaching desired goals is the driving force in this study. It contributes with knowledge from the students' perspective. Hopefully the result can help others, teachers and parents, to strengthen pupils’ desire and ability to learn. Students’ emotions about mathematics are important for learning and mathematics can cause joy as well as anxiety. The students who are positive often need stimulation and challenge, but are usually not a problem for the adults. The negative emotions, especially fear, is something that adults should take into account and try to develop for the better. Anxiety can be described as "a lack of well-being". It can cause panic, paralysis and mental disorganization when students are required to solve math tasks. Math anxiety can also be defined as a combination of stress before the test, low self-esteem, fear of failure and negative attitudes towards learning mathematics. Symptoms can include avoidance of formal mathematics instruction, poor test results and that instructions will not have the expected effect. There is a phenomenological approach of the study. Phenomenology studies how the consciousness creates meaning. The focal point is trying to learn about the students’ experience of their 'Being-in-the-World'. How do students view school mathematics, and why? What can create desire for learning mathematics? What can create uneasiness in learning mathematics? In order to get a better view of this complex area four different data sources are used. Eight pupils are interviewed individually. 19 students participated in focus group interviews. 134 students, ages 11-13, answered questions in a web survey. One class observation was also made. The result was formed into three important factors, Student’s own view of capacity and attitude to mathematics, Importance of relations to others (teachers, class mates, parents) and Content and working forms. Three different themes came into focus – Understanding, Working atmosphere and Safety. The four main areas of importance, as seen in this study, are Interaction student-teacher, Understanding and feeling of success, Good atmosphere in the classroom and Awareness about the use of mathematics. The results show areas of importance for pupils who are feeling math anxiety. They are less aware of how mathematics can be of use for them also outside school and the importance of mathematics in their future lives. They need a much stronger support from adults, teachers and parents, in their math studies, than pupils without anxiety. The classroom environment can also cause problems, if students do not feel safe or feel stressed or disturbed by other pupils or teachers. There are also a few differences between the girls’ and the boys’ experiences, where girls seem to reflect more about their uneasiness when it comes to mathematics, sometimes caused by the boys. What can teachers learn from this study? In short: motivate, teach and let the pupils talk.

Annotation:

The purpose of the present study is to describe adult second language learners’ experiences of mathematics learning from a past and contemporary perspective. What experiences in mathematics do they bring? What does it mean to learn Mathematics through their new language? The study is based on life-world narratives from five second language students with another native language than Swedish. Today they all study at a Swedish folk high school, at upper secondary level and they have previously studied at this level in Mathematics. The result shows that the meeting with the Swedish school and folk high school context is confusing. They face a new school culture with quite different normative rules and it is unclear to them how to behave as good students in this context. They are positive about the response from teachers which is much unlike their previously experiences. The teachers are competent tutors, supportive, listening, encouraging, friendly, authorities without being iron handed. The multilingual students in this study describe that the new language is of secondary importance in mathematics learning. Everyone starts off in year one at upper secondary level and sees mathematics the first period as a refresher. Mathematic studies are, during this period, used to consolidate the mathematical concepts in the new language. All change automatically to their native or previous school language when working with mathematical tasks. There are basic mathematical concepts learned and automated, it is too cognitively demanding to use the Swedish language. They are critical of how Mathematics is taught, a lot of individual work and pace and says that briefings and discussions are more effective, a teacher led approach that they are familiar with.

This Master Thesis is the research done in the country of Rwanda. The project leads to study the climate of this country in order to establish whether this climate could be used to produce energy from air and to implement the first wind turbine for serving the nation. After an introduction about the historical background of wind power, the thesis work deals with assessment of wind energy potential of Rwanda in focusing of the most suitable place for wind power plants. The best location with annual mean wind speed, the rate of use of turbine with hub height for an annual production per year, the mean wind speeds for 6 sites of Rwanda based on ECMWF for climatic data for one year at relief of altitude of 100m and coordinates are reported too. The result of energy produced and calculations were done based on power hitting wind turbine generator in order to calculate Kinetic energy and power available at the best location to the measurement over the period of 12 months, that could be hoped for long term. With help of logarithmic law, where wind speed usually increases with increasing in elevation and the desired wind speeds at all 6 sites were used. The annual energy production was taken into account at the best site with desired wind speed at the initial cost of turbine as well as the cost of energy (COE).However, with comparison of the tariff of EWSA, the price of Wind designed in this Research per kWh is cheaper and suitable for people of Rwanda.

Annotation:

La present tesi doctoral s’ha centrat en el repte d’aconseguir, mitjançant Fabricació Additiva (FA), models per a assaig quirúrgic, sota la premissa que els equips per fer-los haurien de ser accessibles a l’àmbit hospitalari. L’objectiu és facilitar l’extensió de l’ús dels prototips com a eina de preparació d’operacions quirúrgiques, transformant la pràctica mèdica actual de la mateixa manera que en el seu moment ho van fer tecnologies com les que van facilitar l’ús de radiografies. El motiu d’utilitzar FA, en lloc de tecnologies més tradicionals, és la seva capacitat de materialitzar de forma directa les dades digitals obtingudes de l’anatomia del pacient mitjançant sistemes d’escanejat tridimensional, fent possible l’obtenció de models personalitzats. Els resultats es centren en la generació de nou coneixement sobre com aconseguir equipaments d’impressió 3D multimaterials accessibles que permetin l’obtenció de models mimètics respecte als teixits vius. Per facilitar aquesta buscada extensió de la tecnologia, s’ha focalitzat en les tecnologies de codi obert com la Fabricació per Filament Fos (FFF) i similars basades en líquids catalitzables. La recerca s’alinea dins l’activitat de desenvolupament de la FA al CIM UPC, i en aquest àmbit concret amb la col·laboració amb l’Hospital Sant Joan de Déu de Barcelona (HSJD). El primer bloc de la tesi inclou la descripció de l’estat de l’art, detallant les tecnologies existents i la seva aplicació a l’entorn mèdic. S’han establert per primer cop unes bases de caracterització dels teixits vius -sobretot tous- per donar suport a la selecció de materials que els puguin mimetitzar en un procés de FA, a efectes de millorar l’experiència d’assaig dels cirurgians. El caràcter rígid dels materials majoritàriament usats en impressió 3D els fa poc útils per simular tumors i altres referències anatòmiques. De forma successiva, es tracten paràmetres com la densitat, la viscoelasticitat, la caracterització dels materials tous a la indústria, l’estudi del mòdul elàstic de teixits tous i vasos, la duresa d’aquests, i requeriments com l’esterilització dels models. El segon bloc comença explorant la impressió 3D mitjançant FFF. Es classifiquen les variants del procés des del punt de vista de la multimaterialitat, essencial per fer models d’assaig quirúrgic, diferenciant entre solucions multibroquet i de barreja al capçal. S’ha inclòs l’estudi de materials (filaments i líquids) que serien més útils per mimetitzar teixits tous. Es constata com en els líquids, en comparació amb els filaments, la complexitat del treball en processos de FA és més elevada, i es determinen formes d’imprimir materials molt tous. Per acabar, s’exposen sis casos reals de col·laboració amb l’HJSD, una selecció d’aquells en els que el doctorand ha intervingut en els darrers anys. L’origen es troba en la dificultat de l’abordatge d’operacions de resecció de tumors infantils com el neuroblastoma, i a la iniciativa del Dr. Lucas Krauel. Finalment, el Bloc 3 té per objecte explorar nombrosos conceptes (fins a 8), activitat completada al llarg dels darrers cinc anys amb el suport dels mitjans del CIM UPC i de l’activitat associada a treballs finals d’estudis d’estudiants de la UPC, arribant-se a materialitzar equipaments experimentals per validar-los. La recerca ampla i sistemàtica al respecte fa que s’estigui més a prop de disposar d’una solució d’impressió 3D multimaterial de sobretaula. Es determina que la millor via de progrés és la de disposar d’una pluralitat de capçals independents a fi de capacitar la impressora 3D per integrar diversos conceptes estudiats, materialitzant-se una possible solució. Cloent la tesi, es planteja com seria un equipament d’impressió 3D per a models d’assaig quirúrgic, a fi de servir de base per a futurs desenvolupaments.
La presente tesis doctoral se ha centrado en el reto de conseguir, mediante Fabricación Aditiva (FA), modelos para ensayo quirúrgico, bajo la premisa que los equipos para obtenerlos tendrían que ser accesibles al ámbito hospitalario. El objetivo es facilitar la extensión del uso de modelos como herramienta de preparación de operaciones quirúrgicas, transformando la práctica médica actual de la misma manera que, en su momento, lo hicieron tecnologías como las que facilitaron el uso de radiografías. El motivo de utilizar FA, en lugar de tecnologías más tradicionales, es su capacidad de materializar de forma directa los datos digitales obtenidos de la anatomía del paciente mediante sistemas de escaneado tridimensional, haciendo posible la obtención de modelos personalizados. Los resultados se centran en la generación de nuevo conocimiento para conseguir equipamientos de impresión 3D multimateriales accesibles que permitan la obtención de modelos miméticos respecto a los tejidos vivos. Para facilitar la buscada extensión de la tecnología, se ha focalizado en las tecnologías de código abierto como la Fabricación por Hilo Fundido (FFF) y similares basadas en líquidos catalizables. Esta investigación se alinea dentro de la actividad de desarrollo de la FA en el CIM UPC, y en este ámbito concreto con la colaboración con el Hospital Sant Joan de Déu de Barcelona (HSJD). El primer bloque de la tesis incluye la descripción del estado del arte, detallando las tecnologías existentes y su aplicación al entorno médico. Se han establecido por primera vez unas bases de caracterización de los tejidos vivos – principalmente blandos – para dar apoyo a la selección de materiales que los puedan mimetizar en un proceso de FA, a efectos de mejorar la experiencia de ensayo de los cirujanos. El carácter rígido de los materiales mayoritariamente usados en impresión 3D los hace poco útiles para simular tumores y otras referencias anatómicas. De forma sucesiva, se tratan parámetros como la densidad, la viscoelasticidad, la caracterización de materiales blandos en la industria, el estudio del módulo elástico de tejidos blandos y vasos, la dureza de los mismos, y requerimientos como la esterilización de los modelos. El segundo bloque empieza explorando la impresión 3D mediante FFF. Se clasifican las variantes del proceso desde el punto de vista de la multimaterialidad, esencial para hacer modelos de ensayo quirúrgico, diferenciando entre soluciones multiboquilla y de mezcla en el cabezal. Se ha incluido el estudio de materiales (filamentos y líquidos) que serían más útiles para mimetizar tejidos blandos. Se constata como en los líquidos, en comparación con los filamentos, la complejidad del trabajo en procesos de FA es más elevada, y se determinan formas de imprimir materiales muy blandos. Para acabar, se exponen seis casos reales de colaboración con el HJSD, una selección de aquellos en los que el doctorando ha intervenido en los últimos años. El origen se encuentra en la dificultad del abordaje de operaciones de resección de tumores infantiles como el neuroblastoma, y en la iniciativa del Dr. Lucas Krauel. Finalmente, el Bloque 3 desarrolla numerosos conceptos (hasta 8), actividad completada a lo largo de los últimos cinco años con el apoyo de los medios del CIM UPC y de la actividad asociada a trabajos finales de estudios de estudiantes de la UPC, llegándose a materializar equipamientos experimentales para validarlos. La investigación amplia y sistemática al respecto hace que se esté más cerca de disponer de una solución de impresión 3D multimaterial de sobremesa. Se determina que la mejor vía de progreso es la de disponer de una pluralidad de cabezales independientes, a fin de capacitar la impresora 3D para integrar diversos conceptos estudiados, materializándose una posible solución. Para cerrar la tesis, se plantea cómo sería un equipamiento de impresión 3D para modelos de ensayo quirúrgico, a fin de servir de base para futuros desarrollos.

Second Life (SL) is gaining popularity in an educational context. Based on the need for educators to understand emerging technologies and their potential for use in the classroom, this study explored student users’ perceptions of the use of SL in an educational setting. Student’s enrolled in a traditional classroom, that had a SL component merged into the curriculum, were surveyed to determine their perceptions on the use of SL in education. A modified version of Li and Bernoff’s (2008) Social Technographic® Ladder was used to classify students based on their use of technology. Findings indicated that while students did not perceive the value of the use of SL as it was used in the traditional classroom, they agreed on its potential for use in education, predominantly in a virtual classroom setting. Students agreed on the potential of SL for collaboration, simulations, team building, and interaction with peers, among other things. A key implication of this study is that educators need to utilize SL to move outside the walls of the classroom and offer opportunities not afforded in the traditional classroom setting, rather than simply replicating the traditional classroom in a virtual format.

The thesis firstly uses a questionnaire survey to derive quantitative data of general activities of daily living of junior high school students, along with in-depth interviews, observation and diary writing to discuss the life path of respective students and their perceptions on the living environment, and to study and analyze data upon grounded theory to explore the three core space – home, campus and community resided in the daily life of junior high school students. To further find out places that are meaningful and valuable to students and to discuss sense of place upon the time-space path under a limitation of time geography, to ultimately, expect to express the images of their daily life, and to construct the life world of junior high school students accordingly with characteristics shown as below : I. A path of “home-school-home” is repeated day after day on the life path of students at weekdays, which is apparently regular and closed; however, a wider scope of time-space path is shown on holidays, which is more diverse while the time-space path is mostly stayed at two places - home and school. II. The life world of students is not absolutely a world of freedom and will subject to a status of limitation. No matter the school, home and community activities will all subject to 3 limitations of time geography, in which the “academic stress” is a biggest authority limitation, which incessantly affects the arrangement of student’s life path, especially the 3rd-year junior high school students, they have to spend more time on schoolwork preparation due to the effect of academic pressure, therefore the time-space path mostly centers on school, cram school, where leisure hours are relatively compressed with fewer time than 1st-year and 2nd-year junior high school students. III. The classroom is a location that will enable a sense of belonging to students, especially the seats of classroom, making such space physics become valuable and meaningful through things that you are familiar with and intimate interaction with the same generation; In a life of home, room and living room are the most important and meaningful locations at home, reporting the strongest sense of identity, sense of belonging and sense of security, is a location that is best in place. IV. The life world of junior high school is composed of home, school and community, where student’s behaviors will be guided or restrained to certain models under the effect of time geography with 4 aspects covered by these 3 locations respectively, which are “self/private space”, “community/public space”, “pressure” and “relaxation” to construct the images of life world of junior high school students.

Japan is one of the major countries where Taiwanese international students choose to study abroad. According to previous literature, cultural differences and communication barriers may bring negative effects on international students’ academic performance and daily lives. Some studies pointed out that it is difficult for international students to obtain local information. However, most studies focused on the academic information behavior of international students; few focused on their everyday life information behavior, let alone the everyday life information behavior of Taiwanese students in Japan. This study aims to explore the everyday life information worlds of Taiwanese international students in Japan. The research questions include: 1. What are the major everyday life information needs of Taiwanese students studying in Japan? 2. What sources do students consult in their everyday lives? 3. What items, things, and people are involved in students’ everyday life information worlds? And what are the relationships among items, things, and people? This study conducted semi-structured interviews and information world mappings (IWMs) through a visual narrative inquiry approach. Sixteen Taiwanese international students pursuing their master’s degrees at universities in Japan participated in the current study. All of them studied abroad in Japan for at least one semester. Nine of them were male, and most of them settled in Tokyo or Kyoto. Based on the interviews and IWMs, four major types of information needs were identified: basic needs of everyday life; leisure needs; interpersonal and cultural needs, and career needs. Diverse information needs have also been identified under each major needs. Online sources and interpersonal sources played important roles in Taiwanese international students’ everyday life information worlds. Students relied on search engines for information contains others’ experience sharing, and valued sources from their home country. The interpersonal sources consulted by students can be categorized into three major categories: Japanese students, Taiwanese students, family and friends. Similar to individuals’ information horizons, the everyday life information worlds of students can be conceptualized as densely-populated solution spaces. Students’ everyday life information worlds were especially dense when seeking information for basic needs and leisure needs. They often seek information actively in different situations. Additionally, although students consulted sources form Japan or from Taiwan based on their information needs, they prefer obtaining information regarding everyday life experience from their home-country sources. As to students’information seeking strategies, they prefer using search engines before consulting others. Such information seeking strategies may be influenced by the Japanese culture—not to bother others. Finally, students tended to retain their information seeking habits before studying in Japan, and the previous short-term living or studying experiences in Japan also greatly affected their current information behavior. Based on the findings, some suggestions are provided for both international students and higher education institutions. It is suggested that Taiwanese international students in Japan should maintain the relationships with Japanese students, Taiwanese students, family and friends as their everyday life interpersonal sources, and continue using social media from their home country. In order to meet all types of major information needs, students should also expand their personal networks and utilize local social media to gain extensive exposure to Japanese everyday life information. Higher education institutions should enhance orientation programs and international student services that help students deal with everyday life issues, especially when they first arrived. Office of international student services can gather and consolidate resources based on the four major types of everyday life information needs identified by the current study. Experience sharing from previous international students should also be collected and organized as important resources. Through social media, these resources can be effectively promoted and easily used by international students.

The topic of the study is to confer a disabled student how to construct her experience of life-world, after she transferred to common class. The process of the research adopted depth interview, classroom observation and IEP information that the researcher made use of the collection and analysis of materials. By the depiction of the case’s growth background, the comparison of classroom environment, curriculum content, interpersonal interaction and family relationship between common class and special education class, the researcher described the case how to adapt the situation to the new environment. 　　　The result is that the case became more silent and less interaction in the common class, because curriculum content made her more pressure. The case accepted part-time inclusive education, but the function to help her enter common class is limited. The suggestion is that the case should accept more and full estimation and connecting service before entering common class.

The title of the research is “How a college student from a service association constructs his meaning of life – orientated on the view of world and purpose in life”. The aim of the research is based on the following: 　 1.Confer on the process how college students build the world view after join a service association. 2.Confer on the process how college students find the purpose in life after join a service association. 3.Confer on how above-mentioned processes influence each other. 4.Confer about the influence on the meaning of life to the college students. 　　　The research includes three target students who have taken part in a service association for more than three years. During the researching process, a number of deep talks on quality study (質性研究) have been conducted in order to collect useful information. The interview mainly includes open questions and hemi-constructive questions, and later the information is analyzed with the method of content analysis. 　　　Four major points have been concluded: 1.In terms of the process of forming the world view after college students join the service association, there are seven out of the sixteen vectors (向度) of world view found in common among these three students, including kind, mutual-beneficial, respect the seniors, obedient, present-treasuring, say and act in accordance, urge for knowledge. They develop their similar experience on the various vectors of world view which are very positive to their life attitude. 2.In terms of the process of finding the purpose in life after college students join the service association, the three target students also have the same similarity. They all have two recognition: high social value (vertical distinctiveness 縱向傑出), and identify themselves with the freedom out of their own choice. They all tend to search for the more positive and colorful life. 3.In terms of the interactive influence between of their world view and purpose in life after college students join the service association, an evidence from the mode of level (階層意識) or the therapy theory of rational and emotional behavior (理情行為治療理論) is given to support the hypothesis of mutual influence. 4.In terms of the influence on the meaning of life for students who join the service association, the longer they participate the community, the deeper they can sense about their own meaning of life and inspire others. They are lead to a deeper and wider meaningful life.

Virtual reality-based instruction such as virtual worlds, games, and simulations are becoming very popular in K-12 and higher education. Three manuscripts that report the results of investigations of these increasingly prevalent instructional media were developed for this dissertation. The purpose of the first study, a meta-analysis, was to analyze the instructional effectiveness of virtual reality-based instruction when compared to the traditional methods of instruction. In addition, this study also explored selected instructional design features of the virtual learning environment that moderated the relationship between instructional method and the academic achievements. Analyses of 63 experimental or quasi-experimental studies that studied learning outcomes of virtual reality-based instruction in K-12 or higher education settings yielded a mean effect size of g = 0.47 (SE = 0.02) suggesting that virtual reality-based instruction is an effective medium of delivering instruction. Further analyses examined factors that influence its effectiveness. The purpose of the second study was to examine a model of the impact of a 3-D desktop virtual reality environment on the learner characteristics (i.e. perceptual and psychological variables) that can enhance chemistry-related learning achievements in an introductory college chemistry class. A theoretical model of the relationships of features of 3-D virtual reality environments and students' experiences in the environments to outcomes on a chemistry learning test and measures of spatial ability and self-efficacy was tested using structural equation modeling. Usability strongly mediated the relationship between 3-D virtual reality features, spatial orientation, self-efficacy, and presence. Spatial orientation and self-efficacy had a statistically significant, positive impact on the chemistry learning test. The purpose of the third study was to investigate the potential of Second Life (SL), a 3-D virtual world, to enhance undergraduate students? learning of a foundational chemistry concept, spatial ability, and self-efficacy. A quasi-experimental pretest-posttest control group design was used. A total of 387 participants completed three assignment activities either in Second Life or using 2-D images. The difference between the scores of 3-D virtual environment-based group and the 2-D images-based group was not statistically significant for any of the measures.

Annotation:

With the improvement of computer technology and the prevalence of the Internet, learning activities taking place in cyberspace by means of computer-mediated communication have become more common and accessible than even a decade ago. Being interested in how politeness phenomena as universal principles in human interaction played a role in the process of online collaborative learning in a graduate-level course, I conducted a naturalistic inquiry to explore students’ interaction through the lens of Brown and Levinson’s politeness theory (1987). I analyzed the exchanges of 18 students divided into four teams with a consideration for such contextual factors as concerns about netiquette, time, modes of online communication, discourse functions, and sense of community. Influenced by the tradition of interpretivist/constructivist research paradigm, I adopted diverse data collection methods and discourse analytical techniques. Data are reported as a case study of a purposefully selected focal team of five students with supporting evidence interweaving multiple data sources (online discussion, self-reflective blog entries, self-report portfolios, peer/self assessments, field notes, videotapes of voice chat sessions, audiotapes of interviews, and online survey responses). Given the context of students being required to work collaboratively as a team throughout the semester, the findings of this study suggested that the focal team used a variety of politeness strategies to establish cohesion among members and to moderate the force imposed by presupposing too much underlying solidarity. Five contextual factors also emerged as influencing the focal team’s use of politeness strategies: norms/convention, online communication medium, topics and content of discussion, social distance, and personal differences. Instructional technology is subject to innovation and is meant to facilitate learning. Incorporating new technology (e.g., Second Life) into instructional settings can create new opportunities for learning on which learners’ use of politeness strategies depends. Thus, this study about politeness in an online collaborative learning context not only contributes to enriching views of politeness theory, but also in being able to help prepare learners to collaborate effectively in new immersive learning environments with comfort in the ways of fostering awareness of face-saving concerns to avoid or redress face threat situations that may damage team collaboration and lead to a negative learning experience.

This article tries to investigate the life world of current senior high student based on the view point of time geography. Time geography thinks that human activity is a simultaneous interaction between time and space, its activity route is mainly affected by three limitations. In this study, the students in the school taught by the author are used as the research target, we try to investigate what time-space route is displayed by students in daily and non-daily time and in different spaces such as: campus, home and society and under three major limitations of time geography, we also try to find out what sense of place and place ballet are formed. Four data collecting methods are used in this study, for example, questionnaire survey, small diary, in-depth interview and participating observation. Besides, grounded theory is used to analyze the data, therefore, the life world of senior high school students built through the above mentioned methods has the following features: 1. The daily life world of senior high school student is closed and non-changed, the main space route is “Hone---school---home”. Moreover, the leisure activity within the campus is limited to “classroom” and “corridor”; the most staying place after school is the “bedroom”. 2. The holiday activities of senior high school students are diversified and display differences in terms of grade and gender. The life route of first and second grade senior high school student is more easy and diversified, however, the life route of a third grade senior high school student seems like a constant movement of “home---cram school/library”, there is fewer leisure time left. In the type of leisure activity, boy tends to choose basketball and computer game than girl. 3. No matter it is daily or non-daily time, the third grade senior high school students have their time-space route been compressed due to advanced study pressure, they put their focus on reading, watching TV is thus their major leisure activity. 4. In the daily life experience part, “classroom” and “bedroom” are the places favored by the students most and are the places where they feel they belong to most. 5. Generally speaking, the factors that affect the build of life world of a senior high school student include: grade, gender, how parents teach them, advanced study pressure, campus daily schedule, peer influence, among them, the advanced study pressure is the most important factor.

This is an unprecedented study integrating of Second Life (SL) and the currere approach to develop a virtual curriculum demonstration. The overarching purposes of this study were to understand the perceptions, self-reflection, self-understanding, educational growth of graduate students in education toward teaching and learning in a virtual interdisciplinary curriculum. The three-dimensional virtual world of Second Life is a distance learning platform and multimedia combination of animations, dynamic images, embedded videos, websites, simulative worlds, slide shows and media players. The theoretical framework is based on the currere approach?a curriculum technique used to reconstruct social, intellectual, and physical systems. Data was collected in two education graduate courses in 2011 at a public university located in central Texas. After participating with SL skill trainings, the participants engaged in two virtual SL exhibitions?war and ecology?which were designed in the framework of the four currere steps?regression, progression, analysis, and synthesis. Data was collected via observations, SL reflective writings, individual currere writings, and voluntary interviews. The results revealed how SL exhibitions, based on the four-step currere approach, benefit the participants. In the regressive step, the virtual installations stimulated participants' emotions and vivid memories toward the presented topics. In the progressive step, the SL exhibitions awakened participants' awareness to educate the public on the global issues and integrate them into school subjects. In the analytic step, the exhibitions allowed participants to ruminate and re-exam the past, present and future, as well as to reflect on their own consciousness. In the synthetical stage, participants reflected and inflected their own perspectives toward the learning materials. Using the exhibitions' target knowledge, individuals were able to develop a self-understanding, which propelled them toward self-mobilization and educational reconstruction. Regarding SL curriculum development, the participants indicated SL innovative installation assisted them in extrapolating ideas for subject integration and interdisciplinary curriculum. In terms of technological utilization, SL changed the participants' perception about how integrating virtual technology into a classroom makes teaching and learning accommodating for distant students. In addition, this further motivates students to understand content more concretely and effectively. With regard to autobiographic emotional involvement, SL delivered the powerful images and videos to participants, which allowed them to understand why they possessed certain kinds of emotions toward specific events.

The purpose of this study is to explore the life story of the student in evening division of vocational high school who was s betel nut beauty, and to interpret the meaning of her life experience. The research also explores the life world of disadvantaged adolescent to understand why the adolescent become to disadvantage. What are the reason and background to make the disadvantaged adolescent recover from their failure experiences? We also concern the future career planning of the research participant after she re-narrate her life story. This research is based on the concept of qualitative research, and uses the narrative research methods. Data is collected from the deep interview. The “holistic---content” and “categorical---content” are used to analyze the data. The results as follows: 1. In the life story of the research participant, her father is the key point to make her live in the failure experiences. The period of junior high school is the critical time in her life. The negative experience in the Adolescent Observer and Protect Institute make her sense that her mistake in her life as the betel nut beauty. 2. The disadvantaged adolescents in resilience process are harder then the general adolescents, because they lack the support system. Their early experience is the important factor in their resilience process. 3. The factors of becoming to disadvantaged adolescent: (1). The function of family can really carry on more important than the structure of family. (2) The education of the role of law must be intensified. (3). The adolescents will be confusion of ego identity easily in the mass media competition and network technology development. (4).The support and help from seniors and friends can give them positive effects. (5). The junior high school emphasizes the entrance examinations of senior high school too much. (6). The attitude of teacher’s support or the teacher’s rejection is the important factor for students. 4. The research participant experienced loss and failure in her growing process, but she used the positive attitude to face her future. At last, the researcher makes some suggestion according to the results and findings for teachers, schools and the administration of schools.

The major purpose of this study is to investigate the mathematical word problem solving process and the error types of the students with disabilities participating in resource-room program (RRP) of the junior high schools. Additionally, this study investigates the changes of the problem-solving ability of the RRP students through the mediational dynamic assessment (MDA). According to the scope of number line in the unit "positive and negative numbers" of junior-high-school mathematics textbooks, six self-defined mathematical word problems was designed to assess RRP students, and seven mediating strategies were administrated during the problem-sovling process. There were 32 RRP students from 15 junior high schools in Taipei City or Taipei County participating in this study. The categories of these RRP students were learning disability, emotional disability, hearing handicap, language disorder, autism, and Asperger. The main findings of this study are summarized as follows: 1) All of the students appear competent reading and computing abilities in the mathematic word problems; 2) The RRP students show more difficulties in the process of problem translation of mathematic word problems; 3) Almost 80% of RRP students reaped benefit from the MDA; 4) The RRP students with low reading ability benefit more from MDA, and the strategies of the picture representation to solve the mathematic word problems is used the most freguently. Several recommendations for the further studies of RRP students in the mathematic word problems and educational practice are made on the basis of the findings.

The aim of the study was to understand the teachers’ experiences of learners with disciplinary problems. A literature study was conducted on various issues related to disciplinary problems in schools. In the empirical investigation a qualitative research approach with a phenomenological research design was used. The study was conducted in one secondary school in KwaZulu-Natal. The purposive sample comprised of 10 teachers who experienced discipline problems and two teachers who were knowledgeable about the issue. Semi-structured interviews were conducted and the data were analysed and interpreted by means of the theoretical frameworks of the Bar-On Model of Emotional Intelligence and the Bronfenbrenner ecological model of child development. The findings revealed how disciplinary problems impacted negatively on the emotional and social well-being of the teachers. It was concluded that teachers needed improved coping strategies and collaborative support from the School Management Team and the Department of Education to deal with disciplinary problems.

This Master Thesis is the research done in the country of Rwanda. The project leads to study the climate of this country in order to establish whether this climate could be used to produce energy from air and to implement the first wind turbine for serving the nation. After an introduction about the historical background of wind power, the thesis work deals with assessment of wind energy potential of Rwanda in focusing of the most suitable place for wind power plants. The best location with annual mean wind speed, the rate of use of turbine with hub height for an annual production per year, the mean wind speeds for 6 sites of Rwanda based on ECMWF for climatic data for one year at relief of altitude of 100m and coordinates are reported too. The result of energy produced and calculations were done based on power hitting wind turbine generator in order to calculate Kinetic energy and power available at the best location to the measurement over the period of 12 months, that could be hoped for long term. With help of logarithmic law, where wind speed usually increases with increasing in elevation and the desired wind speeds at all 6 sites were used. The annual energy production was taken into account at the best site with desired wind speed at the initial cost of turbine as well as the cost of energy (COE).However, with comparison of the tariff of EWSA, the price of Wind designed in this Research per kWh is cheaper and suitable for people of Rwanda.

Rwanda has considerable opportunities development energy from hydro sources, methane gas, solar and peat deposits. Most of these energy sources have not been fully exploited, such as solar, wind and geothermal. As such wood is still being the major source of energy for 94 per cent of the population and imported petroleum products consume more than 40 per cent of foreign exchange. Energy is a key component of the Rwandan economy. It is thus recognized that the current inadequate and expensive energy supply constitutes a limiting factor to sustainable development. Rwanda’s Vision 2020 emphasizes the need for economic growth, private investment and economic transformation supported by a reliable and affordable energy supply as a key factor for the development process. To achieve this transformation, the country will need to increase energy production and diversify into alternative energy sources. Rwandan nations don’t have small-scale solar, wind, and geothermal devices in operation providing energy to urban and rural areas. These types of energy production are especially useful in remote locations because of the excessive cost of transporting electricity from large-scale power plants. The application of renewable energy technology has the potential to alleviate many of the problems that face the people of Rwanda every day, especially if done so in a sustainable manner that prioritizes human rights.
