Linking Programming to Representations : Understanding meaning-making in physics education through semiotic resources

Svensson, Kim LU (2022)
Abstract
Programming is investigated with a social semiotic lens to study how programming can contribute to meaning-making in physics. The analysis focuses on how new and dynamic representations can be created with the help of programming and how programming allows students to investigate and create their own models of physical phenomena. This is described from a semiotic perspective and the semiotic perspective is also developed with new theoretical constructions to better describe the students' use of representations in physics.

Abstract (Swedish)
Programmering undersöks med en social semiotisk lins för att studera hur programmering kan bidra till meningsskapande i fysik. Analysen fokuserar på hur nya och dynamiska representationer kan skapas med hjälp av programmering och hur programmering tillåter studenter att undersöka och skapa egna modeller av fysikaliska fenomen. Detta beskrivs utifrån ett semiotiskt perspektiv och det semiotiska perspektivet utvecklas även med ny teoretiska konstruktioner för att bättre beskriva studenternas användande av representationer i fysik.
