TIMSS (Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study) er en internasjonal komparativ undersøkelse som måler elevenes kompetanse i matematikk og naturfag. TIMSS gjennomføres både på barnetrinnet og på ungdomstrinnet. Gjennom spørreskjemaer til rektorer, lærere, elever og foresatte (bare på barnetrinnet) samles det inn informasjon om elevenes læringskontekst. Dette gjør det mulig å undersøke sammenhenger mellom bakgrunnsfaktorer og elevenes læringsutbytte. Denne boka inneholder analyser av data fra TIMSS 2015-undersø-kelsen. Norge deltok med elever fra 4., 5., 8. og 9. trinn. I analysene som presenteres i denne boka, belyses blant annet følgende: Er det fortsatt en positiv utvikling i norske elevers prestasjoner i realfag? Hvordan presterer norske elever i matematikk og naturfag sammenliknet med elever i de andre nordiske landene? Hvordan kan undervisningskvalitet måles, og hvordan er sammenhengen mellom lærernes undervisningskvalitet og elevenes læringsutbytte? Hva karakteriserer norske realfagslæreres kompetanse? Hvilke sammenhenger finnes mellom lærerkompetanse, undervisningskvalitet og elevenes læringsutbytte? Hvilken betydning har lekser og lærernes faglige kompetanse for likeverd i skolen? Hvilke aspekter ved skolemiljøet har betydning for elevenes læringsutbytte? Ole Kristian Bergem, Hege Kaarstein og Trude Nilsen ved ILS (Institutt for lærerutdanning og skoleforskning) ved Universitetet i Oslo er redaktører av boka. Øvrige bidragsytere er Sigrid Blömeke og Ronny Scherer fra CEMO (Centre for Educational Measurement, UiO) og Merethe Frøyland fra Naturfagsenteret.

University Physics is a three-volume collection that meets the scope and sequence requirements for two- and three-semester calculus-based physics courses. Volume 1 covers mechanics, sound, oscillations, and waves. Volume 2 covers thermodynamics, electricity and magnetism, and Volume 3 covers optics and modern physics. This textbook emphasizes connections between between theory and application, making physics concepts interesting and accessible to students while maintaining the mathematical rigor inherent in the subject. Frequent, strong examples focus on how to approach a problem, how to work with the equations, and how to check and generalize the result.

Drawing upon a wealth of previously unpublished archival material, Leo Strauss on Science brings to light the thoughts of Leo Strauss on the problem of science. Introducing us to Strauss's reflections on the meaning and perplexities of the scientific adventure, Svetozar Y. Minkov explores questions such as: Is there a human wisdom independent of science? What is the relation between poetry and mathematics, or between self-knowledge and theoretical physics? And how necessary is it for the human species to exist immutably in order for the classical analysis of human life to be correct? In pursuing these questions, Minkov aims to change the conversation about Strauss, one of the great thinkers of the past century.
