Msc. Karolina Spustova at the Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, is defending the thesis «Membranous Protocell Superstructures» for the degree of Philosophiae Doctor.

The digital society has become ubiquitous. So are concerns about trust and societal security in it. However, despite an apparent link between these phenomena, studies on digital societies, trust and societal security remain fragmented. 

PhD candidate Anna Theresia Maria ter Schure at the Department of Biosciences will be defending the thesis "Dung, Dirt & DNA: unearthing past and present biodiversity through eDNA metabarcoding" for the degree of PhD.

Every second Tuesday, CBA staff gather for lunch and a talk. December 7th will mark our last talk of the semester, given by Nicolas Valiente Parra. CBA staff will gather for a small Christmas lunch.

Computational thinking (CT) has been added to many educational standards around the world. However, this new content presents challenges around preparing teachers to incorporate computational thinking into the STEM disciplines. In this talk, I will first give a review of the literature around preparing pre-service secondary STEM teachers to incorporate computational thinking into their subjects. I will then present data from interviews with pre-service secondary subject teachers in the STEM teacher education program at UiO . The data highlight a current gap in the research on teacher preparation: that the computation learned in upper division subject courses does not directly translate to the computational thinking that they will be teaching their future students. Finally, I give some suggestions for remedying this gap.

Doctoral candidate Anouk Tosca Klootwijk at the Department of Geosciences, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, is defending the thesis Benthic foraminiferal biomonitoring in northern Norway: Establishing reference conditions, Ecological Quality Statuses and responses to organic matter for the degree of Philosophiae Doctor.
