معرفی
Kristina Juter is a Professor in the Department of Mathematics at the Faculty of Sciences, Lund University. Her academic work focuses on the didactics of mathematics with interdisciplinary connections to physics education and innovative pedagogical approaches.
Her research centers on conceptual learning in mathematics, particularly examining how students perceive mathematical concepts and how mathematics functions within physics instruction at upper secondary level. Juter investigates mathematics teacher education frameworks and explores unconventional methods like fiction-based pedagogy to enhance science and mathematics learning. Her work employs empirical classroom studies to analyze reasoning patterns and conceptual development.
Recent publications (2022-2024) demonstrate consistent focus on mathematics-physics interdisciplinary connections, digital learning environments for young students, and pre-service teacher development. These studies reveal methodological rigor through case studies, classroom observations, and analysis of argumentation skills, with strong emphasis on practical classroom applications rather than purely theoretical frameworks.
Juter actively supervises research projects including Pre-service teachers' use of frameworks in degree theses (2024-2025), Impact of bridge courses on mathematics learning (2022-2023), and Mathematics in physics teacher education (2022-2024). She collaborates extensively with researchers like Örjan Hansson, Anders Redfors, and Ulrika Eriksson on interdisciplinary STEM education initiatives.
Her professional activities include regular presentations at major conferences such as the Nordic Conference on Mathematics Education (NORMA), where she contributes to workshops on in-service teacher training and physics-mathematics integration. Juter maintains active engagement with both academic research communities and classroom practitioners through these collaborative projects and professional development initiatives.
