DigiWind is a collaboration between universities and companies from five leading wind nations – Denmark, Poland, Norway, Ireland, and the Netherlands. DigiWind eductions will bring lots of digital competencies to wind and energy systems engineering.
Andreas Haraldsrud and Tor Ole Odden: When learning chemistry, students must learn to extract chemical information from mathematical expressions. However, chemistry students’ exposure to mathematics often comes primarily from pure mathematics courses, which can lead to knowledge fragmentation and potentially hinder their ability to use mathematics in chemistry.
Daring students to pose rich questions, engage in active learning, think computationally, and more - we reach for the best possible standards for our teaching.
In 2018, Sebastian G. Winther-Larsen posted a YouTube video called “A Day In The Life: Computational Physics” which reached people from all around the world, who are interested in this field of study. One of them was João Inácio, who contacted Sebastian to learn more about how it is to study at the University of Oslo.
This summer we hosted the Oslo PER Summer Institute (OPSI) conference to connect with Physics and STEM education researchers from the University of Oslo, Michigan State University, Oregon State University, University of Colorado - Boulder, and other Norwegian and Scandinavian Universities.
Well done CCSE, facilitators and participants of the Nordic Regional Learning Assistant Workshop at UiO, June 09.-10. Two inspiring days where we learned about the Learning assistant model and how Learning assistants can contribute to student empowerment, belonging and learning.
Tor Ole Odden, Alessandro Marin and John L. Rudolph has used a machine‐learning algorithm from the field of natural language processing, to perform an automated literature review and classification of the corpus of work in Science Education. Read the article in the journal Science Education.
American student's often face different conditions that might increase or decrease the time it takes for them to get an undergraduate degree. These conditions include their background, the academic performance at university, and their integration into the social communities of the university they attend.
The Faculty of Mathematical and Natural Sciences at the University of Oslo (UiO) was recently granted a € 2.6 million MSCA COFUND project – TraCS, training in computational science – to fund 32 PhD-students in a program that provides young, talented researchers with the computational and data science skills needed to transform research and innovation across Europe.
Together with five strong partners, the University of Oslo has been awarded EU funding for a project that will generate new knowledge about transferable skills while also laying the foundation for a future university alliance.
Summer research positions to undergraduate and Master’s students who are interested in STEM Education and data analytics.
