Lena Hansson is a Professor in Science Education at the Faculty of Education , Kristianstad University , with a focus on the Nature of Science (NOS) and its implications for teaching and learning. Her work bridges academic research with school practice, emphasizing equity and social justice. Key Projects : Nature of Science in preschools using picture books Industrial initiatives in science and technology education Science education for democratic participation Research Themes : Hansson explores how NOS understanding shapes student engagement, teacher practices, and curriculum design across early childhood and secondary education. Her work aligns with UN Sustainable Development Goals , particularly SDG 4 (Quality Education) and SDG 10 (Reduced Inequalities). Collaborations : International partnerships include co-editing the book Nature of Science for Social Justice with Hagop Yacoubian. She has served as Director of the IHPST Council and contributes to editorial boards of journals like Science & Education and ATENA .
Oswald Fogelklou serves as a Lecturer at the Division of Basic Science Education, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, specializing in foundational science instruction for engineering preparatory programs. He holds a PhD in Mathematics from Uppsala University (2012) with a dissertation titled "Computer-Assisted Proofs and Other Methods for Problems Regarding Nonlinear Differential Equations" and extensive pedagogical training. His academic credentials include: PhD in Mathematics, Uppsala University, 2012 15 higher education credits in university pedagogy comprising: Pedagogical Basic Course for University Teachers II (7.5 credits, Uppsala University, 2010) Learning for Sustainable Development (4.5 credits, 2019) Developing Learning with Assessment Criteria (1.5 credits, 2018) Examinership for Courses at KTH (1.5 credits, 2018) Dr. Fogelklou's professional focus centers on mathematics and physics education for engineering students, integrating his expertise in applied mathematics—particularly nonlinear differential equations and computer-assisted proofs—into curriculum development. His work emphasizes effective pedagogical methods for foundational courses, including assessment design and sustainable development integration. He holds key roles across multiple courses: Course responsible and teacher for Algebra and Geometry (SF1624), Calculus in One Variable (SF1625) Examiner and teacher for Physics for Technical Preparatory Year I (HF0022/ML0022) and II (HF0025/ML0025) Examiner for Basic Programming (ML1602) Teacher for Programming and Numerical Tools (ML1309), Quality Technology and Improvement (ML1609), and Fundamental Industrial Statistics (ML1018) Former assistant for Differential Equations and Transform Methods II (SF1629) and Discrete Mathematics (SF1662) No scientific awards or honors were documented in the provided information. Dr. Fogelklou's responsibilities focus exclusively on course instruction, examination, and pedagogical development. The text indicates no graduate student advisement or research grant activity. His contributions support the Division of Basic Science Education's mission to deliver rigorous foundational science training for engineering students through evidence-based teaching practices and course administration.
