Ei biologisk ulykke : maskulinitetskonstruksjoner og kjønnsideologi i Grethe Nestors roman Kryp
2007
Masteroppgave i Nordisk språk og litteratur 2007 - Høgskolen i Agder, Kristiansand Studieobjektet mitt har vært feministen Grethe Nestors debutroman Kryp. Jeg satte meg fore å undersøke romanens kjønnsideologi og mannsfigurasjoner, med en velbegrunna mistanke om at sistnevnte baserer seg på myter og stereotypier om det mannlige. Avhandlingens argument er at Nestor er ute i et ideologisk ærend, og at det viser seg i romanens estetiske uttrykk så vel som i konkret tematikk og motivvalg. Det subversive og potensielt kvinneemansipatoriske ligger vel så mye i (postfeministiske) lån fra maskulint koda uttrykksformer - pornografi og en litterær tradisjon forbundet med mannlig kjønnsfundamentalisme…
Language, gender and religion : an investigation into some genderspecific issues in religious texts and the impact of language on the role of woman i…
2011
Masteroppgave i engelsk- Universitetet i Agder 2011 The thesis begins by providing background information about the concept of gender within the linguistic, feminist and religious context. Possible definitions of the difference between sex and gender are offered and the position of gender issues in the realm of language is discussed. In continuation an introduction to religious feminism and its different types is given. Before the discussion of the core of the thesis, a presentation of the research investigation included in this work is given. Its aim and methods applied are elaborated. The central part of the thesis can be divided into four parts which are interconnected. First, different …

Lesebøker i nasjonsbyggingsprosessen : en sammenlignende analyse av det nasjonale i lesebøker fra Norge og Aserbajdsjan
2013
Masteroppgave i nordisk språk og litteratur- Universitetetet i Agder 2013 Masteroppgaven er en sammenlignende studie av hvordan det nasjonale presenteres for barn (10-12 år gamle) i utvalgte lesebøker fra de to landene: Norge og Aserbajdsjan. I denne masteroppgaven prøver jeg å svare på spørsmålet: hva er det disse tekstene presenterer som det nasjonale? Materiale for oppgaven er 7 lesebøker fra begge land. To av dem utgjør leseboken for femte trinn i Norge som er skrevet av Thorbjørn Egner (de 7. og 8. bindene av 16 bind). Det vil si at jeg har valgt tre lesebøker fra begge land. Lesebøkene fra Norge er: Nordahl Rolfsens Lesebog for folkeskolen som er utgitt i 1892; Thorbjørn Egners lesebø…

Analysis of relations between attitude towards mathematics, prior knowledge, self-efficacy, expected and actual grades in mathematics
2022
The purpose of this study is to analyse relations between students’ attitude towards mathematics, prior knowledge, self-efficacy, expected grades, and performance in mathematics among 115 firstyear engineering students. We combine two statistical techniques to analyse the data we generated by questionnaires and two tests. First, item-level modeling, in terms of confirmatory factor analysis, which we use to compute the factor scores of construct-validated measures, and to control for measurement errors. Second, composite modeling, in terms of path analysis, which we use to test the research hypotheses. The findings show that both self-efficacy and expected grades have substantial effects on …

An exploration of how social science students utilise an opportunity to learn about simulation-based research methods : A design-based study
2021
Paper I, Paper III and Paper IV is excluded from the dissertation with respect to copyright. Paper III and Paper IV is not published yet. At the core of this thesis lies an exploration of how social science students utilise an opportunity to learn about Modeling and Simulation (M&S)-based research methods. The study is framed within the Cultural Historical Activity Theory (CHAT). The thesis also utilises local theories such as the community of practice theory, the theory of objectification, and the theory of semiotic representation, and these are used to analyse, interpret and discuss the data generated in the study. During the analysis, boundary-crossing, boundary objects, tension and cont…
The resource decisions and documents of undergraduate engineering students in mathematics courses
2020
This thesis concerns a multiple case study, carried out at three Norwegian universities. The goal was to find similarities and differences between how engineering students from different university contexts used resources to learn mathematics, and how they made decisions regarding their use of resources. My project had an inductive focus, networking thematic analysis (Braun & Clarke, 2006) with the theoretical framework of the documentational approach to didactics (Gueudet & Trouche, 2009). After my analysis, I also compared my results and conclusions to those of authors who have conducted research projects with a similar focus (i.e. Anastasikis, 2018; Gueudet & Pepin, 2016; Kanwal, 2018; P…
