”Learning math with the body is great” : A statistical survey regarding teachers' use of laboratory material in mathematics teaching in year F-3. (English)
Abstract [sv]

Denna studie undersöker hur laborativt material används i matematikundervisningen i åk. F-3. Studien tittar även på bakomliggande förklaringar till varför lärare använder materialet eller ej, samt vad som krävs för en ökad användning. Metodvalen i föreliggande studie är av både kvantitativ- och kvalitativ karaktär och består utav en online-enkät som besvarats av 199 lärare. Resultatet visar att laborativt material är ett relativt vanligt inslag i matematikundervisningen. Det påvisar även att lärares teoretiska kunskaper om, och erfarenheter av laborativt material påverkar i vilken utsträckning det nyttjas i undervisningen. Slutligen framgår det att lärare upplever att fortbildning skulle öka deras användande av laborativt material i undervisningen.

Abstract [en]

This study examines how laboratory material is used in mathematics teaching in class. F-3. The study also looks at the underlying explanations for why teachers use the material or not, as well as what is required for an increased use of the laboratory methods in mathematics teaching. The method choices in the present study are of both a quantitative and qualitative nature and consist of an online questionnaire answered by 199 teachers. The results show that laboratory materials are relatively common in mathematics teaching. It also shows that teachers' theoretical knowledge of, and experiences of laboratory materials affects the extent to which it is used in teaching. Finally, it appears that teachers feel that continuing education would increase their use of laboratory material in teaching.
