Vary more in mathematics : An enactment of how the variation theory to learning can be appliedto mathematic teaching (English)
Abstract [sv]

Syftet med denna studie är att bidra med kunskap om hur matematikundervisning kan utformas genom att använda variationsteorin för att undersöka matematikundervisning om positionssystemet i årskurs 2. Metoden i studien delar likheter med design research genom att undervisning har planerats, genomförts och prövats i en autentisk klassrumsmiljö. Undervisning iscensattes genom två olika undervisningsdesigner: en undervisingsdesign baserad på variationsteoretiska principer och en undervisingsdesign baserad på lärarhandledning. Datainsamlingen i studien består av för- och eftertester samt transkript av genomförd undervisning. Datan analyserades med stöd av variationsteorin. Studien indikerar att variationsteorin kan fungera som ett konkret verktyg när matematikundervisning och elevernas möjliga lärande planeras, utformas och analyseras. Studien visar även att båda designerna tycks ha givit eleverna möjlighet att lära sig det som var planerat. 

Abstract [en]

The aim of this study is to contribute to an understanding for how mathematical instructions can be designed. By investigating how the Variation theory of learning can be applied in mathematical education regarding the positional system in grade 2. The methodology of the study shares similarities with design research, as mathematical instructions were planned, implemented, and tested in an authentic classroom environment. Two different instructional designs were staged: one based on variation-theoretical principles and one based on the teacher’s instructional guidebook. The collected data in the study consists of pre- and posttests as well as transcriptions of the enacted lessons. The data was analyzed with the support of the Variation theory. The study demonstrates that the variation theory can serve as a guiding for teachers when planning, designing, and analyzing mathematics instruction and students’ potential learning development. Furthermore, the study also indicates that both designs seem to have given the students an opportunity to learn what was planned.
