معرفی
Jesper Haglund is a Senior Lecturer in Physics Education at Karlstad University. He holds a PhD in Science Education from Linköping University (2012) and a Docent title in Physics with specialization in Physics Education from Uppsala University (2016). His research focuses on thermal science education, particularly the integration of thermal cameras in laboratory activities, metaphors in science textbooks, and embodied learning approaches. Haglund actively investigates climate change education, exploring tensions in teacher training and student risk perception. He promotes innovative uses of digital tools like GeoGebra and infrared cameras to enhance student engagement with abstract physics concepts.
- PhD: Science Education, Linköping University, 2012
- Docent: Physics (Education), Uppsala University, 2016
Research emphasizes science education technology, with projects involving thermal imaging in biology and vocational education, as well as metaphor analysis in textbooks. He collaborates internationally on embodied cognition frameworks and inquiry-based methods in diverse educational contexts, such as South African township schools. Recent work includes designing climate literacy activities and evaluating teacher strategies for technology-enhanced instruction.
