I have started to work a little bit on representation of ideas. A core issue is that new ideas are manifest something not well defined and non existing. This means that, typically, the only empirical reference for an idea is one or several representations (drawing, words, diagrams aso) of the idea. A problem could then be that to much value is given to a specific representation for instance when explaining an idea to collaborator, leaving him with a faulty or insufficient understanding of the idea.

yesterday i prtesented my work in the Nafadise seminar at the university of copenhagen. a small but higly qualified audience.. today i was at the laboranova kickof meeting, very interesting look further into this at the website http://laboranova.com/

mathematical software:
geogebra is a piece of software that connects the functionalities of a computer algebra system (Maple, Mathematica, Mathcad) and a geometrical construction program (Cabri, Geometers Skechpad) into one program.

pt i tronheim hvor jeg holder to foredrag,
9/5 på program for læreruddanning NTNU med titlen Delta Matematik over net, en forundersøgelse, og den 11/5 på nkul konferencen med titlen IKT og matematik - udfordringer i matematisk kommunikation. begge foredrag sammen med Anders Sanne...

looking at agile computing and the work of Rob Austin
http://www.agilealliance.com/
seems a relevant approach and Rob is currently visiting CBS so maybe I should approach him

At the moment I do a minor interview study with participants of a web based distance learning course in university mathematics. This is in cooperation with Anders Sanne NTNU.

ICT frontrunner university
the Danish university of education is working on becoming a ICT frontrunner university. This means that I should propose several ideas for development projects in this direction.
1. laboranova
2. Cooperation with NTNU on delta-matematik på net
3. the work of Mads Ipsen
4. new wiki/blogs for centre for learning games
are all relevant cases of ICT fronrunner activities

On this blog you can follow my research activities with developing an interdisciplinary field around the issues of learning, epistemology and knowledge representations, with special emphasis on learning mathematics.
