The explosive popularization of personal computers during the last decade, along with the appearance of the World Wide Web and of high-level programming techniques, has opened many new and exciting opportunities in the field of education. In this chapter, a review of existing types of multimedia material used in education and of some of the authoring tools used in the production of this material i

Oldtidens og middelalderens litteratur – i skandinaviske oversættelser är en bibliografi över översättningar till danska, norska och svenska av de antika och medeltida litteraturerna. Den har som ambition att samla samtliga översättningar tryckta efter 1500 av grekisk, romersk, och övrig europeisk litteratur skriven före 1500, tillsvidare med undantag för bibliska texter. I sin nuvarande form tä

Popular Abstract in English In May 1619, the Finnish astrologer Sigfridus Aronus Forsius (d. 1624) was examined by clerical authorities. In the verdict, astrology was rejected as a pagan craft, forbidden for any Christian. Yet still astrology was inseparable from the scholarly conception of the world. The principles of astral influence were more or less self-evident in physical theory and in medicThe purpose of this thesis is to analyse a displacement of the limits between allowable and illicit knowledge in the orthodox, Lutheran discourse of early modern Sweden. Focusing on the debate over astrology, exemplified in the works of Laurentius Paulinus Gothus (1565-1646) and Sigfridus Aronus Forsius (d. 1624), the thesis aims to challenge the view of how the Reformation, regarded as a prelimin

Popular Abstract in Swedish Helkroppsinnehållet av radioaktivt cesium mättes regelbundet hos en grupp individer bosatta i Lund med omnejd mellan åren 1960 och 1994. I denna avhandling presenteras en utvärdering av resultaten från denna mätserie. Ekologisk halveringstid och överföring från markbeläggning till människa via livsmedel har bestämts genom analys av den genomsnittliga helkroppsinnehålletThe whole-body content of radiocaesium was measured in a South-Swedish urban group of people residing in the city of Lund (55.7°N, 13.2°E) between 1960 and 1994. The results from the survey have been analysed in order to estimate the ecological half-time, Teco,eff, of fallout radiocaesium and the aggregate transfer from ground deposition to man in the region. After 1987, the biological half-times,

Families of asymptotically regular LDPC block code ensembles can be formed by terminating (J, K)-regular protograph-based LDPC convolutional codes. By varying the termination length, we obtain a large selection of LDPC block code ensembles with varying code rates and substantially better iterative decoding thresholds than those of (J, K)-regular LDPC block code ensembles, despite the fact that the

In this paper a dialectic complexity framework is presented and reflected upon. The purpose of the framework is to guide researchers and practitioners in rethinking and reframing underlying assumptions, and address how these have a possible influence and impact on researchers’ and practitioners’ processes of making sense, understanding, explaining, improving etc. aspects of different types of issu

Ungdomars engagemang i föreningsverksamhet och organisering förutsägs ofta á priori vara något bra. Mer sällan problematiseras frågan, t.ex. genom att ställa frågan vem som organiserar sig. Denna artikel utgår från litteraturen om socialt kapital och har bl.a. tagit intryck av Bourdieus modell för socialt kapital. I en ekonomisk modell med inspiration från Bourdieu kommer värdet av en individs so

For almost forty years the seemingly harmless term “postmodern” has sown discord and ruffled feathers in the intellectual world. Mere sight of the term has caused some commentators to see red in more than one sense: “postmodernism” for them embodies the utter degeneracy of the 1960s Left. For their part, more than a few commentators on the left have associated the term with the neoliberal climate
