This book is about scientific inquiry. Designed for early and mid-career researchers, it is a practical manual for conducting and communicating high-quality research in (mathematics) education. Based on the authors’ extensive experience as researchers, as mentors, and as members of the editorial team for the Journal for Research in Mathematics Education (JRME), this book directly speaks to re…
Dieses Open-Access-Buch beschreibt die theoriebasierte Entwicklung einer semesterbegleitenden Maßnahme zur Förderung der Problemlösekompetenz von Studienanfänger:innen der Fachmathematik und des gymnasialen Lehramts, sowie die zyklische Modifikation dieser Maßnahme im Sinne der Entwicklungsforschung. Begleitend dazu wurden, mit dem Ziel, grundlegende Erkenntnisse zum studentischen Probleml…
This open access textbook represents a vital contribution to global health education, offering insights into health promotion as part of patient care for bachelor’s and master’s students in health care (nurses, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, radiotherapists, social care workers etc.) as well as health care professionals, and providing an overview of the field of health science a…
As explored in this open access book, higher education in STEM fields is influenced by many factors, including education research, government and school policies, financial considerations, technology limitations, and acceptance of innovations by faculty and students. In 2018, Drs. Ryoo and Winkelmann explored the opportunities, challenges, and future research initiatives of innovative learning …
This open access volume presents a novel computational framework for understanding how collections of excitable cells work. The key approach in the text is to model excitable tissue by representing the individual cells constituting the tissue. This is in stark contrast to the common approach where homogenization is used to develop models where the cells are not explicitly present. The approach …
This open access volume explains the foundations of modern solvers for ordinary differential equations (ODEs). Formulating and solving ODEs is an essential part of mathematical modeling and computational science, and numerous solvers are available in commercial and open source software. However, no single ODE solver is the best choice for every single problem, and choosing the right solver requ…
Standen Sie schon einmal vor einem mathematischen Problem oder einer kniffeligen Knobelaufgabe und hatten keine Idee für einen Lösungsansatz? Ist Kreativität erlernbar? Dieses Buch vermittelt Ihnen systematisch Problemlösestrategien, die Grundlagen der Logik und die wichtigsten Beweistechniken. Der Autor bearbeitet Schritt für Schritt ausgewählte Probleme, die mit dem Schulwissen der Mitt…
This open access proceedings volume brings selected, peer-reviewed contributions presented at the Third Stochastic Transport in Upper Ocean Dynamics (STUOD) 2022 Workshop, held virtually and in person at the Imperial College London, UK, September 26–29, 2022. The STUOD project is supported by an ERC Synergy Grant, and led by Imperial College London, the National Institute for Research in Comp…
In diesem Open-Access-Buch systematisiert Judith Huget in einer theoretischen Herangehensweise eine stoffdidaktische Methode - die didaktisch orientierte Rekonstruktion - zur Ausdifferenzierung von Wissenselementen von Lehrkräften. Anhand dieser Methode werden anschließend exemplarisch Fachwissenselemente für Lehrkräfte am Beispiel des empirischen, schwachen und starken Gesetzes der großen…
This open access book’s theme is Teaching mathematics as to be meaningful – foregrounding children’s play and perspectives. It discusses the relation between teachers, children and mathematical content within the context of play with a particular focus on the framing of these relations within this context, which is an important theme in the debate on whether teaching should be integrated …
