National-scale professional development in Sweden: theory, policy, practice

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- From 2012 to 2016 all teachers of mathematics, in primary through to upper secondary and adult education, in Sweden are to be given the opportunity of receiving state-coordinated professional development (PD), generally involving around one meeting per week for a year. We examine the ways in which this programme and its content are research-based by analysing the design principles of the PD and its content via a review of the underlying documents. We find that the research base for the design of the PD decisions is formulated only partly explicitly in the documentation, as is the case for the content. Nevertheless, the principles still largely conform to internationally recognised research-based models for PD and teacher change. In the discussion we propose that a relatively open design process, involving many stakeholders with knowledge of both theory and practice rather than an analytical examination of previous research, has contributed to the adoption of this format for the PD programme. © 2014, FIZ Karlsruhe.

Properties of a bio-photovoltaic nano-device

Ingår i: Journal of Physical Chemistry C. - : American Chemical Society (ACS). - 1932-7447 .- 1932-7455. ; 112:48, s. 18717-18721

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Properties of an on-chip photovoltaic nanodevice are demonstrated. The dyes comprise green florescent proteins(GFP). Dependence of recently reported zero external potential bias (ZEPB) photocurrent (I) on temperature,power, and wavelength (λ) is shown. Correlation between UV-vis spectrum of the GFP and the ZEPB I(λ)of the device is reported. The temperature dependence suggests the ZEPB photocurrent to reflect a liquidcrystal type ordering where the current declines monotonically with increasing temperature. The influence ofan external bias on the photocurrent is demonstrated. The resulting light-induced current is analyzed in termsof resistive and quantum mechanical contributions.

Dyspnea experience in patients with lung cancer in palliative care

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The aim of this study was to describe the dyspnea experience and examine its relation to other symptoms, personal and health-related factors and its predictors in patients with lung cancer. The subjects were 105 patients diagnosed with lung cancer, approached when active anti-tumour treatment was closed. The patients completed a battery of questionnaires about several aspects of dyspnea experience, intensity of other symptoms and coping capacity. Medical data including performance status were obtained from medical records. Above 50% of the patients perceived dyspnea. Coping capacity, performance status and other symptoms correlated with different aspects of dyspnea experience. Dyspnea dimensions and activity-related dyspnea correlated with anxiety, depression, fatigue and cough as well as negatively to coping capacity. Performance status correlated with dyspnea intensity and activity-related dyspnea. Lower coping capacity predicted dyspnea; additional predictors were higher levels of anxiety and fatigue. Dyspnea in this group of patients was a complex experience, including physical and psychological aspects and should preferably be assessed in a comprehensive way. A nursing intervention to decrease dyspnea experience and anxiety could use knowledge from this study about the importance of coping capacity to better help patients with lung cancer to cope in their palliative phase of the disease

The impact of symptoms, coping capacity, and social support on quality of life experience over time in patients with lung cancer.

- The aims of the study were to investigate lung cancer patients' quality of life (QoL) over time in a palliative setting and to determine how QoL is influenced by symptoms, coping capacity, and social support. One hundred and five consecutive patients with incurable lung cancer were included. A comprehensive set of questionnaires was used at baseline, including the Assessment of Quality of Life at the End of Life, Cancer Dyspnea Scale, Visual Analog Scale of Dyspnea, Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale, Sense of Coherence Questionnaire, and Social Support Survey, of which the first four were used also at three, six, nine, and 12 months. Dyspnea, depression, and global QoL deteriorated over time. Performance status, anxiety, depression, components of dyspnea, pain, and the meaningfulness component of coping capacity correlated with global QoL at all, or all but one follow-up measurements. In a multivariate analysis with global QoL as the dependent variable, depression was a significant predictor at four out of five assessments, whereas coping capacity, anxiety, performance status, pain, and social support entered the model at one or two assessments. Emotional distress and coping capacity influence QoL and might be targets for intervention in palliative care.

International Perspectives on Learning and Teaching Mathematics
- 2004
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This book provides examples from around the world of research insights and approaches to teaching mathematics that recognize the crucial role of the teacher in facilitating learning. The book has contributions from 14 countries and more than 50 mathematics educators and researchers. The scope of their expertise clearly illustrates how varied, complex and stimulating the study of mathematics education is. It also demonstrates that teachers and researchers around the world share a powerful interest in improving mathematics learning for all students. This book is written for classroom teachers, for pre-service and in-service education and for students in postgraduate courses.
