On the 18th of October MaScE arranged the first 75% seminar with Ph.D research fellow Siri Ovedal-Hakestad from University of Agder presenting her work.
Siri’s supervisors in her work are Niclas Larson, Jeppe Skott and Thomas Gjesteland. Shaista Kanwal from University of Agder acted as discussant for Siri’s work.
The participants attended both physically and on zoom.
The seminar started with Siri presenting the background and aim of the study. Siri’s study aims at exploring how pre-service and in-service teachers engage with mathematical concepts via an online assessment tool, STACK. The data collection consisted of pre-service and in-service teachers’ digital responses to tasks in STACK related to algebra and functions, and in-depth follow-up interviews with a selection of participants.
After Siri’s presentation Shaista gave feedback to Siri’s work and discussed different issues with Siri.
In the end of the session Siri answered and discussed questions from colleagues physically present and on Zoom.
