Presentation of abstractFor over a decade I have researched the possibilities and opportunities offered when encountering mathematics through problem solving at school entry. At first, we tested ways to implement problem solving in a setting where students could not (yet) read or write.
The students had the opportunity to try out recent demos created by researchers and practitioners in the field.
– Since the course is science literature based, this practical experience was well received with students expressing interest in more hands-on workshops where they could develop their own demos in the future, says Ala Sarah Alaqra.

Why did you choose the Dance Pedagogy programme?
“I took the Dance 60 and Dance and Learning courses earlier, and I knew that I wanted to work with dance in some way. I was wondering which direction I should take when I heard of the new Dance Pedagogy programme. I also like studying in Karlstad and didn’t want to move, so I was really glad when the Dance Pedagogy programme started here at Karlstad University.
