In 2017 the Swedish government initiated a digitalisation process of the Swedish education system by revising the curriculums (Lgr11) to emphasise the importance of digital competence. An ambitious commitment at a national level, however leaving the schools with a great question mark regarding how the digitalisation should be implemented in real practice. Drawing on action research from a Swedish

Om vi ska avleda de värsta effekterna av klimatkrisen måste vi hålla oss inom gränserna för vår globala koldioxidbudget. Precis som att vi dagligen förhåller oss till vår hushållsbudget, måste våra utsläpp återspegla det vi har kvar på vårt ”klimatkonto”. Kommuner är i behov av ett verktyg för att översätta vad det globala åtagandet i Parisavtalet innebär lokalt. Kommunala koldioxidbudgetar är idaWe have a limited amount of greenhouse gases left to emit, our global carbon budget, if we are to divert the worst effects of the climate crisis. This study aimed to map how municipalities implement carbon-budgeting in their efforts to fulfil the Paris agreement, and investigate why the instrument is not more frequently used. A survey among Swedish municipalities was carried out, in two stages. A

The conventional method to manufacture prosthetic arms is a time-\\consuming and complicated process. It is a process that has many manual steps that allow much room for human errors. With today's technology advancement it is possible to offer a more efficient technology that can replace the conventional manufacturing method of prostheses. This master thesis aims to develop a new way of manufa

För att fånga den perfekta bilden krävs rätt ljus och timing, men det finns även mycket annat som kan hjälpa dig när du fotograferar. Fotografering är en prylhobby och även hobbyfotografer har en tendens att samla på sig diverse gadgets. Jonas Lundin var en av dessa hobbyfotografer som kände att han saknade en produkt på marknaden. En produkt där han kunde ha sina kameraobjektiv mer lättillgänglig

Vi har lyckats utveckla en metod för att utvinna glukos ur kasserade bomullstyger, som i sin tur kan användas för att producera nya kemikalier och biobränslen. På så vis kan vi hjälpa textilindustrin att bli betydligt mer hållbar. Mycket av kläderna i min garderob är begagnade, det beror delvis på att jag gillar känslan när man lyckas hitta något oväntat trevligt fynd, men också för att återanvänLarge amounts of waste textiles are produced annually, of which only a small fraction is recycled currently. The purpose of this study was to develop a method to recycle cotton-based waste textiles chemically that can be coupled to the production of biofuels or green chemicals. Bedlinens, labeled 100% cotton, were dissolved and hydrolyzed in sulfuric acid to produce a glucose solution without the

With the implementation of the Fundamental Review of the Trading Book in January of 2022, financial institutions will be obligated to implement Expected Shortfall as a means of determining market risk capital. With the transition from Value at Risk to Expected Shortfall, the question of how to accurately forecast Expected Shortfall arises. This paper investigates the forecasting ability of non-par

Purpose: We aim to develop a deeper understanding of non-managerial organisations by exploring the implications of this way of organising on the identification processes and professional identity of consultants. Theoretical Background: In our theoretical background, we highlight previous literature on different aspects of identity and identification as well as the interrelation of these topics w

Background. In the past years, there has been a major shift towards the consumption of healthier, more sustainable, and more convenient food products. These trends have triggered a response from the food industry, instigating the reformulation of several products. The challenge is removing or replacing certain ingredients, without sacrificing certain elements such as taste, texture, or shelf-life.

This study maps the intersection of homelessness and migration in Europe by focusing on Italy and Sweden; in the study, ‘Europe’ is defined by the Schengen Common Area Agreement, by the Common European Asylum System and by the Dublin Regulation. Using Kimberlé Crenshaw’s Intersectionality as one of its main theoretical reference points, the study argues that different dimensions of power relations

Building functional and effective railway station infrastructures has become a strategy to encourage sustainable mobility. Addressing on commuters, this thesis aims to investigate how station infrastructures frame commuters' commuting experience. Departing from the theory of rites of passage by Victor Turner, this thesis draws on autoethnography, interviews with six Øresund commuters and obser

Gender diversity has gained a lot of attention in the corporate governance literature, reaching conflicting results whether board gender diversity has an impact on financial performance. As a consequence, we set out to investigate how board gender diversity affects financial performance through innovation using a mediation technique. We constructed three hypotheses grounded in the resource depende

NIB - Visualisering av biologins många ansikten. Livsvetenskaperna är ett samlingsnamn för forskningsgrenar som studerar biologiskt liv och dess förutsättningar. Området har vuxit snabbt de senaste åren och stora landvinningar har gjorts med ny teknisk utveckling. Teknikerna är dock behäftade med viss osäkerhet, då det kan vara svårt att skilja biologiska fynd från tekniska störelement. Jag har dLife-sciences have developed at a rapid pace during recent years. From experiments investigating single molecules such as proteins or single genes to large scale projects mapping entire organisms in one single experiment. However, data generated from this kind of large scale projects need to be interpreted and integrated with the base of prior knowledge in an efficient, reliable and correct way. T

This paper is about our relation to the physical book in our homes, the use and how we choose to store it, and the use of it in libraries with focus both on the visitors and the libraries itself. For a closer loook about the physical books status, the theoretic aspects is used for at look at the physical books as a product for our way to preciate the book, booth by economy and personal relations.

The thesis investigates how a norm-critical perspective on learning can impact the architectural design, and the aim is not to challenge the school as a form but to mediate a more supportive learning environment. The norm-critical, feminist and public pedagogy highlights the necessity of change towards collective learning with the individual in mind that includes introvert and extrovert personalit

Melaniner är en grupp pigment som förekommer hos en rad olika organismer tillhörande växter, djur och bakterier. Människor har melanin i huden, vilket skyddar mot solens farliga UV-strålning, men även i ögonen, hjärnan, inneröronen, håret, och i vissa organ. Melaniner kan delas upp i eumelanin, som har en brun till svart färg, och feomelanin, med en gul till röd färg. Det är bland annat andelen avMelanin is a group of pigments present in almost all kingdoms of life. It has many interesting properties such as high fossilizing potential and the ability to chelate metals. The binding of metal ions is believed to have two major functions within biological systems: metal reservoir and metal scavenger. However, eumelanin’s chemical structure is still unknown and there is a knowledge gap regardin

Vad händer bakom stängda luckor? Människan har sedan urminnestider försökt förstå hur naturen fungerar. Länge har vi anat varför en fiskart, eller flera fiskarter, återfinns i en specifik miljö. Nog måste ni hört ”gäddan lurar i vassen”? Miljöfaktorerna fungerar då som ett filter, där enbart de arter som är anpassade och konkurrenskraftiga för den specifika platsen tar sig genom filtret och överlIn the last couple of decades, it has become apparent in ecology that community structure can be governed by both local (e.g. abiotic and biotic filtering) and regional processes (e.g. dispersal) – known as Metacommunity theory. However, management and restoration projects have lagged, still mostly focusing on the local environment for the benefit of certain species or communities – leading to fai

Små parker med vatteninslag och blandad struktur är bäst för Malmöbor Den rådande stadsplaneringstrenden är att förtäta städer. Detta har många fördelar, men städer med mycket hårdgjord yta är också känsligare för klimatförändringar. Genom att planera för gröna ytor på platser som inte är lämpade att bygga hus på kan man hjälpa till att klimatsäkra staden. Målet med detta arbete var att identifieThis study aimed to examine how pocket parks should be designed in order to promote visits from the inhabitants in Malmö, as well as which of six design is the best from an ecological perspective. By examining these two aspects the goal was to identify how a pocket park can be designed to work as a multifunctional place in the city. Firstly, a literature study was carried out in order to identify

Green Roofs (GRs) have been used worldwide as a solution for greening cities, while providing useful services to society such as storm water management, improved air quality, energy savings, and increased biodiversity, to name a few. However, the environmental impact of their structure has been understudied, and more importantly, the carbon cost related to the use of materials that have a high car
