While educational research (EdR) and the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) are overlapping fields there remains considerable friction between the two. Shulman, (2011, p. 5), recounts a situation when an EdR colleague accused him “of contributing to the bastardization of the field by encouraging faculty members who were never trained to conduct educational or social science research to en
A central point of departure for this socio-legal study about online hate crimes concerns the significance of analysing and understanding social norms in relation to these crimes on the Internet. This is of importance not least when one approaches the issue of how law and the legal system may contribute towards positive developments in this field and prevent hate crimes. It is apparent that law an
This thesis starts with an interest to explore how I, as an urban designer, can contribute to make the city centre of my hometown more enjoyable for its citizens and visitors. Growing up in Västerås, the city centre was a place of retail. You walked in the large-scale public realm, looking out for cars when crossing the streets, and visiting the large indoor malls. How can the city centre be impro
This project presents the reader with possibilities for how Malmö can develop, it shows a methodical approach and proposal for how it is possible to treat the site, ”August Palms plats” and its’ public spaces in order to deal with the social challenges of the city. By interpreting theoretical articles I have created physical manifestations, where public space can generate situations promoting dial
Omsättningen av kisel (Si) är en av de viktiga biogeokemiska processerna på jorden. Den lösta formen av Si (DSi) är ett nödvändigt näringsämne för såväl markens som havens ekosystem. Löst kisel kommer från den långsamma kemiska vittringen av kiselmineral. Denna process förbrukar koldioxid och bidrar därför till att reglera jordens klimat genom årmiljonerna. Kisel transporteras huvudsakligen via oSilicon (Si) cycle is one of Earth's major biogeochemical cycles. Furthermore, the dissolved form of Si (DSi) is an essential nutrient for both terrestrial and marine ecosystems. DSi ultimately derives from the slow process of chemical weathering of silicate minerals, a mechanism that consumes carbon dioxide, and therefore participates in regulating Earth's climate over geologic timescales. Si is
In the light of the digital influence of literature and art, my paper focuses on a rather small topic that is traditionally strongly placed in the aesthetics of the interart and intermedia discourse, namely ekphrasis. Whereas the conventional discourse outlines ekphrasis as a “verbal representation of a visual representation” (Hefferan 1993, p. 3) to call attention to poems describing paintings, m
This thesis treats the intersection between two of the largest transformations we are seeing within our society today; the cloud and the Internet-of-Things (IoT). The aim of this thesis is to investigate different ways to model and control a network of cloud services so that timing-critical IoT applications can make use of them. Examples of such applications can be autonomous and mobile robots,
Walking into Ftarri Records, I was surprised to find myself not in thepresent, but the past. The owner opened a box of AMM CDs from 1997,exclaiming gleefully, “Wow, these are really old. No-one will buy these –cool!”. Yet Toshimaru Nakamura played with an Eventide harmonizer pedalthat evening – something unimaginable in the starkly minimalist days theshop strove to emulate.In the 1990s, Boston Noi
