More Efficient Manual Review of Automatically Transcribed Tabular Data
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-04-04)Any machine learning method for transcribing historical text requires manual verification and correction, which is often time-consuming and expensive. Our aim is to make it more efficient. Previously, we developed a machine learning model to transcribe 2.3 million handwritten occupation codes from the Norwegian 1950 census. Here, we manually review the 90,000 codes (3%) for which our model had ... -
Lek på barns egne premisser? En studie av lek i norskfagets begynneropplæring
(Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2024-05-14)Sammendrag Lek har gjennom historien hatt en sentral plass i den norske skolen, men graden av vektlegging har variert over tid. Med de nye læreplanene (LK20) har leken fått en mer framtredende posisjon sammenlignet med tidligere læreplaner som for eksempel LK06. Imidlertid har lek og lekbasert tilnærming vært et underbelyst tema i masteremnet norsk. Våre observasjoner, i tillegg til egne erfaringer ... -
Filosofi for Fiskere; Kunnskap om mikroaggresjoner som en av løsningene på fiskerinæringas manglende kjønnsbalanse.
(Mastergradsoppgave; Master thesis, 2024-05-31)Kan en av løsningene på fiskerinæringens kvinnemangel være bevisstgjøring og kompetanseheving rundt begreper som mikroaggresjon og mikroulikhet?

Remediating deficits? Problem representations in Norwegian policies for newly qualified teachers
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2024-07-18)This article analyzes how newly qualified teachers (NQTs) are conceptualized in Norwegian policy, specifically the green paper ‘NOU 2022: 13: With Further Significance’.

The analyses focus on dialectal and accentual ... -
Brain Correlates of Attentional Load Processing Reflect Degree of Bilingual Engagement: Evidence from EEG
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-08-13)The present study uses electroencephalography (EEG) with an N-back task (0-, 1-, and 2-back) to investigate if and how individual bilingual experiences modulate brain activity and cognitive processes. The N-back is an especially appropriate task given recent proposals situating bilingual effects on neurocognition within the broader attentional control system (Bialystok and Craik, 2022). Beyond its ... -
Putting the Cybermedia Model into Educational Practice: Expanding the Framework
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-08-23)In this paper, we build on an earlier operationalization of Aarseth and Calleja’s cybermedia model for an interdisciplinary evaluation of games as potential tools and objects for teaching and learning. Here, we critically develop the model and original template, and expand its four dimensions with two additional layers. We then use the expanded framework on concrete examples to illustrate how the ... -
