I denna uppsats efterforskas svar på frågan om hur körledare gör för att lära ut körmusik på gehör. Inledningsvis presenteras tidigare studier som berör körlivet i Sverige samt gehörsinstuderingen i kör. Den teoretiska basen utgår ifrån sociokulturell teori, i synnerhet det sociala samspelet. I teorikapitlets avslutande del introduceras den didaktiska triangeln och begreppet distribuerade resurserWhile it can be argued that learning music by ear is an essential and important element of modern choral practice in Sweden, it is a subject area that is widely ignored in music teacher training programs and higher music education generally. Furthermore, there has been relatively little research in Sweden on choral learning-by-ear practices. This study investigates what methods choral directors u

In this thesis, we introduce a theoretical framework that can act as a foundation when develop-ing and adopting a BYOD policy. Using BYOD within organizations is a growing concept and continues to evolve as technology gets better, cheaper and more advanced. Our literature study indicates that the biggest advantage in regard to implementation of BYOD is cost reduction, moving the actual cost to the

This master’s thesis investigates sustainability management within a fashion company and how a company could use the sustainability management tool the Higg Index 2.0 Brand and Retail Module to work towards its prioritised UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It is a comparative review of the two frameworks, the Index and the SDGs, from a life cycle analysis perspective. It also includes a cas

The study found that during the period prior to the release of the two-child policy, the decision of whether to have a second child or not had become less affected by the family planning policy. Some wealthy people, or those who were eager to have a second child had already had a second child despite the policy, even at the expense of risking a fine. This ‘rigid birth will’ greatly reduced the eff

This master thesis contributes to the field of innovation research by developing a further understanding and elaboration of innovation barriers from an individual perspective. In this study, we aim to explore what the inhibiting factors in radical innovation processes in mature industries and what their implications for employee actions are. These contributions to the field are made possible throu

Our thesis investigates the comparative interpretations of democracy in the opinions of the European Committee of the Region (CoR) and the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC). Using the mixed methods of a qualitative content analysis and a discourse analysis, we assess the extent to which, how and why democracy is unevenly interpreted at the CoR and EESC; relative to their joint remits a

I denna uppsats undersöker jag om en daglig verksamhet för personer med en neuropsykiatrisk funktionsnedsättning (npf) kan bidra till deltagarnas autonomi. Att visa sig vara självgående underlättar situationen att anpassa sig till samhället. Syftet är att bidra med kunskaper om hur autonomi kan förstås och stödjas. På en daglig verksamhet är det individens egna behov och egenskaper som ska vara vä

Multiple modern methods of statistical feature extraction and machine learning are applied to classification of encoding and retrieval of episodic memories us- ing electroencephalogram (EEG) recordings. Raw data, different time-frequency methods, and multiclass common spatial patterns are used for statistical feature ex- traction. For each type of feature extraction multiple machine learning algor

Kostnader är något som företag oftast önskar att kapa för att maximera profiten. BorgWarner är ett multinationellt företag som bland annat tillverkar fördelningslådor till fyrhjulsdrivna fordon. Produktionsvolymen är stor samtidigt som kedjekugghjulen som används är beräknade med en onödigt stor säkerhetsmarginal, vilket gör att det finns utrymme för besparingar.In this master thesis, a new way of approaching the dynamic loads on a Hy-Vo chain sprocket was investigated and analyzed. Though the approach was not new on the market, it was new to BorgWarner, whose calculations on the matter to this date have been based on approximations. The objective for investigation is in the long end to choose optimal material properties of the sprockets to meet the requ

The Cambrian sandstone reservoirs of the Baltic Basin have been identified by the Geological Survey of Sweden (SGU) as potential CO2 storage sites in line with regulations regarding Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS). In order to understand the petrological and petrophysical characteristics of the sandstone units, 54 thin sections from the three main Cambrian sandstone units were studied. The descri

The aim of this thesis work is to find novel method(s), which enhance the performance of the existing Observed Time Difference of Arrival (OTDOA) positioning technique for Internet of Thing (IoT) devices introduced in Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) standard release 14. In this thesis work, NarrowBand IoT (NB-IoT) positioning is considered as the baseline. The scope includes the invest

This research has established a different approach towards a better design in packaging development for the Early Life Nutrition portfolio of Danone Nutricia Research. During this study, the value chain of plastic flexible packaging has been analysed by looking into the different technologies used at the sorting centres as well as technologies used to recycle multilayer films (e.g. delamination pr

Death is life ́s companion, it has existed throughout the history of humanity and of all living things. Mayan culture represents one of the oldest civilizations native to the American continent and is renowned for its traditions and spirituality. Sweden is recognized as a modern-day industrialized, technologically advanced, and secular society. How do these two different cultures handle the subjec

Biobränsle är ett av framtidens stora hopp för att bromsa klimatförändringen. Men upp till en tredjedel av råmaterialet som används till biobränsle kan idag inte brytas ner av de mikroorganismer som man normalt använder sig av. I denna studie visar vi att vissa av molekylerna som bildas i nedbrytningsprocessen är särskilt viktiga för vad som känns igen som nedbrytningsbart av mikroorganismen. UpptXylose represents up to a third of the biomass used in the production of second generation biofuels, but conversion methods of this pentose sugar are still inefficient. This is problematic from both an economical and an environmental perspective. Achieving efficient co-consumption of glucose and xylose in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the most commonly used fermentative microorganism, is an attractive

Title: Exploring the technology of machine learning to improve the demand forecasting Authors: Viktoria Gerdtham & Karolina Nilsson Background: The technology of artificial intelligence is considered to be one of the most important technological advances of our era and a fundamental driver of economic growth in our society. Axis Communications, a customer-oriented technology company deliverin

Internet har tidigare varit bundet till en fast punkt. I och med utvecklingen av trådlös teknik så sprider sig nu uppkopplade enheter ut i offentliga miljöer. Med mognaden av IoT börjar tekniken utvecklas på ett sätt där den individuella användaren mer är passiv snarare än aktiv i sitt användande. I Lund ser vi ett ungt exempel på detta med cykelbarometrar som satts upp i staden för att räkna anta

This paper provides insights into the concepts of corporate and internal branding. In particular, we aim to investigate how front line employees perceive and interpret the communicated visions and values of an organization, and how these relate to organizational culture. Internal branding as a concept emphasizes that in order for organizations to deliver on their promise to its customers, the empl

We all make decisions, but when medical professionals do it, it can literally mean life or death. Decisions are influenced by many factors. The aim of the present study was to investigate if personality traits as proposed by the Big Five Model influence the Rational and Experiential cognitive information processing styles as proposed by the dual-process Cognitive-Experiential Self-Theory theory in
