Kartografiska Sällskapets utbildningssektion : ett nytt tillskott i KS-familjen
- 2006
-
Ingår i: Kart- & bildteknik. - Gävle : Kartografiska sällskapet. - 1651-792X. ; 21:2, s. 10-11

Tidskriftsartikel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- På Kartografiska Sällskapets årsmöte i Jönköping den 21 mars beslutades att inrätta en ny sektion inom sällskapet – en utbildningssektion. Denna artikel beskriver bakgrunden till sektionen och dess verksamhetsidé. Utbildningssektionens embryo tillkom för tre år sedan efter förslag från ULI som delegerade uppgiften till Geomatikprogrammet vid Högskolan i Gävle. Tanken vara att skapa ett forum för lärare inom geomatikområdet. Både för att sammanföra lärare från olika lärosäten, för att öka förståelsen för varandras arbeten, och för att kunna förbättra möjligheterna till samarbete.

Tidskriftsartikel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- På GIT 2006 arrangerade Kartografiska sällskapets nybildade utbildningssektion en paneldebatt kring arbetsmarknadens behov av GIT-kompetens. Representanter för akademin, lantmäteriet, kommunerna och konsultbranschen presenterade sin syn på förhållandet mellan utbud och efterfrågan på GIT-arbetsmarknaden. Därpå följde en paneldebatt, allt under sessionsledaren Anders Wellvings vakande öga.

A harmonized GIS course curriculum for Swedish universities
- 2007
-
Ingår i: EUC'07 HERODOT Proceedings. ; , s. 10 s.-
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- With the implementation of the Bologna declaration, European and other universities must change or adjust courses and programmes so they fit into the Bologna model. In Sweden this will take place during 2007. The intention with the declaration, for example, is that a basic course in one subject at one university should be treated as equivalent to the same type of course at another university. Once a year, the recently formed section for education of the Swedish Cartographic Society gathers university lecturers and others for an education conference to discuss matters concerning higher education in geomatics, geoinformatics, geography, etc. Last year’s conference identified the need for a harmonized course curriculum in basic GIS. One of the advantages of such a course is easier transfer of study records for inclusion of course credits in study programmes at other universities. Therefore, an attempt has been made to write a harmonized course curriculum for basic GIS. The course will contain about 50% common content and about 50% of content decided by the individual university. The common content will be described as learning outcomes, and then it is up to the universities to place the learning outcomes into a context. Thanks to this common core, the course can be given for such diverse programmes as archaeology, land surveying, or economy, and still be able to include the required knowledge for students to continue on more advanced courses at other universities.

Impact of environment on people’s everyday experiences in Stockholm
- 2018
-
Ingår i: Landscape and Urban Planning. - : Elsevier BV. - 0169-2046 .- 1872-6062. ; 171, s. 7-17
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In order to construct urban environments that limit negative impacts for global sustainability while supporting human wellbeing, there is a need to better understand how features of the environment influence people’s everyday experiences. We present a novel method for studying this combining accessibility analysis and public participatory GIS (PPGIS). Seven environment features are defined and accessibility to them analysed across Stockholm municipality. We estimate the probabilities of positive and negative experiences in places based on these environment features, by using spatial regression to extrapolate from the results of an online PPGIS survey (1784 experiences of 1032 respondents). Six of the seven studied environment features have significant impact on experiential outcome, after accounting for spatial autocorrelation among the data. The results show that number of residents and proximity of nature environments and water, all common quality indicators in urban planning and research, have weak statistically significant effects on people’s experiences. However, areas dominated by large working populations or proximity to major roads have very low rates of positive experiences, while areas with high natural temperature regulating capacities have very high rates, showing that there are considerable qualitative differences within urban environments as well as nature environments. Current urban planning practices need to acknowledge these differences to limit impacts on the biosphere while promoting human wellbeing. We suggest that a good way to start addressing this is through transformation of negatively experienced urban areas through designs that integrate closeness to urbanity with possibilities to have nature experiences on a daily basis.

Okunskap får städer att svämma över

- Ett varmare klimat innebär kraftigare skyfall och fler översvämningar. Men många kommuner är dåliga på att avgöra var risken för höga vattenflöden gör det olämpligt att bygga. Det menar naturgeografen Anders Brandt – som vill se ett kunskapslyft i geografi.

Excursions in school – past and present from Swedish and Anglo-Saxon perspectives
- 2014
-
Ingår i: European Journal of Geography. - : European Association of Geographers. - 1792-1341. ; 5:4, s. 87-101
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The purpose of this article is to present the results from a review of literature on geography excursions and field studies and to discuss their development over time, focusing on purpose, content, method, and execution. The scope was limited to Swedish and Anglo-Saxon literature, produced after the year 1900. The results show that excursions and field studies have since long been important methods in school teaching, not only in the subject geography. One of the purposes of using excursions and field studies in teaching is to facilitate the learning process of pupils and students. Several authors arguing that learning improved when the objects are studied in the real world. We can see that a continuous process of change has altered contents as well as conduction of the excursions. The previous instrumental orientation has moved toward more pupil-participating work methods. Today preparation is a keyword in most texts on excursions, and the perspectives have been broadened.

Limited GIS skills hamper spatial planning for green infrastructures in Sweden
- 2022
-
Ingår i: Geografiska Notiser. - : Geografilärarnas Riksförening. - 0016-724X. ; 80:1, s. 16-35

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The term green infrastructure captures the need to conserve biodiversity and to sustain landscapes’ different ecosystem services. Maintaining green infrastructures through protected areas, management and landscape restoration requires knowledge in geography, spatial data about biophysical, anthropogenic and immaterial values, spatial comprehensive planning, and thus geographical information systems (GIS). To understand land use planning practices and planning education regarding GIS in Sweden we interviewed 43 planners and reviewed 20 planning education programmes. All planners used GIS to look at data but did not carry out spatial analyses of land covers. BSc programmes included more GIS than MSc programmes but very few taught analyses for spatial planning. As key spatial planning actors, municipalities’ barriers and bridges for improved GIS use for collaborative learning about green infrastructures are discussed. A concluding section presents examples of how GIS can support spatial planning for green infrastructures.

Harmonization of GI educations in Sweden and the Bologna process : viewpoints of University of Gävle
- 2006
-
Ingår i: Fifth European GIS Education Seminar (EUGISES 2006). ; , s. 10-
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- With the implementation of the Bologna declaration, many study programmes and course curricula needs to be updated and revised. This paper describes the current situation in Sweden regarding GIT educations and courses and whether a harmonization is needed. A survey was made to see which GIT courses that are given and at which level they are given at the various universities. For some universities, interviews were conducted about their courses’ contents and their strategies for determining course levels. Discussions were also made about harmonization of courses between Swedish universities. Some problems due to lack of harmonization was noted, which probably will be more severe in the future due to increased student mobility. To harmonize courses, Bloom’s revised taxonomy is put forward as a tool which is used to clearly state the level of the course in relation to learning objectives.
