ABSTRACT Ordinary differential equations (ODEs) have a wide range of potential applications in science and engineering with regard to nonlinear dynamic systems. Frequently, there is a focus upon locating unique solutions to ODEs, with non-unique solutions being viewed as potentially problematic. However, some have recognized the importance of examining the character of non-unique solutions as well in order to properly understand the behaviour of physical systems. In some areas of engineering, notably control theory, the latter concern has become… Continue Reading

tandfonline.com – Looking for the ordinary? Parental choice and elite school avoidance in Finland and Germany

tandfonline.com har udgivet en rapport under søgningen “Teacher Education Mathematics”: ABSTRACT ABSTRACT Middle-class parents’ strategies of reproduction and social closure and their role as a driver of school segregation are already well-reported. Our two independent research projects in Finland and Germany have additionally revealed a somewhat surprising and not yet fully understood tendency of certain middle-class parents to actively avoid the most reputable schools. Using these findings as a starting point, the paper investigates the motives and reasoning behind middle-class parents’ avoidance strategies in the cities of Espoo (Finland) and Mülheim an der Ruhr (Germany). The analysis shows that in educational transitions where choice is not constrained by a risk of children being left behind, some families with high educational resources and imbued with a certain ethos give precedence to… Continue Reading
