Studiens syfte är att titta på de potentiella för- och nackdelarna med att använda flipped classroom som metod i gitarrundervisning. Vidare så ämnar den identifiera ett antal riktlinjer för hur videomaterial skulle kunna utformas för den här typen av gitarrundervisning. Studien består av fem intervjuer med tre gitarrlärare och två gitarrelever, med varierande erfarenheter av videor som verktyg förThe purpose of this is study is to look at the potential benefits and possible disadvantages of using the flipped classroom model in the context of guitar teaching. It also seeks to find guidelines for creating instructional videos for this form of pedagogy. The study consists of five interviews with three teachers and two students, with varying experience of using the video format as a tool for g
Tuberculosis (TB) and other mycobacterial infections have become more difficult to treat since the strains need to be screened for resistance. Furthermore, the half-year long treatment time could harm hepatocytes as a side effect of the treatment. This calls for discovery of new compounds for a successful treatment. One such promising peptide was recently discovered and called NZX. In this study
Barley naturally contains high amounts of dietary fibre, however it is not widely used in health promoting purposes. Barley is traditionally used for malting in beer and whisky and it is often overlooked as a candidate for other applications. In this study five barley varieties are evaluated from a technical and a nutritional point of view. The aim of the study is to conduct a literature review re
Optogenetics is unfolding new ways for us to study the nervous system and could one day be a standard approach to treat neurological diseases like epilepsy. To selectively study the effects on a subcellular level, microscopic light sources are needed. Nanostructure, light-emitting diodes (LEDs) can realize this criteria but processing to connect and protect them is necessary before any fruitful op
Baxter develops medical devices that take advantage of reverse osmosis to purify water that’s being used in dialysis fluids. Reverse osmosis is a commonly used water purification process that removes unwanted particles from the water. The membrane that is used to purify the water has a temperature dependency that changes the performance of the membrane when the temperature is changed. When loweri

In 2006, the city of Korsør in Slagelse Municipality in Denmark experienced the worst storm surge recorded in history. In order to prevent greater damage of buildings and sensitive infrastructures in the future, dikes and evacuation procedures have been brought up for discussion. This thesis examines resilience to flooding in Korsør by conducting in-depth qualitative interviews with a resident fro
The project sets in Prishtina, Kosovo, and explores the oasis of a park in the middle of the intense city. The different movements created by us, has led to the interest of developing architectural fragments of stops to activate the park and further extend the public use of the National Library: a way of creating new movements in order to connect them two together. “A search for the path of total
The purpose of this study is to investigate what challenges sustainable entrepreneurs in the food industry face when capturing value and how they aim to overcome them. To that end, we develop a theoretical framework based on relevant literature on sustainable entrepreneurship, entrepreneurial studies and environmental science. Furthermore, we conducted nine case studies, drawing from semi-structur
This study has examined how women's codependency on their male partner with alcohol or drug problems is expressed and how codependency can be understood in relation to their upbringing. A qualitative content analysis of 7 podcast episodes where women talked about their upbringing and codependency was made. For a deeper understanding, we used Johan Asplund's theory of social responsiveness,
Studiens syfte var att utforska upplevda metodbrister hos patienter som inte blivit hjälpta av Panic Control Treatment (PCT) respektive Panic Focused Psychodynamic Psychotherapy (PFPP). Studiens urval var en del av projektet POSE, Psychotherapy outcome and self-selection effects for panic disorder, och bestod av 20 patienter med diagnosen panikångestsyndrom med eller utan agorafobi. Hälften hade bThe aim of this study was to explore patients’ experience of method deficiencies in Panic Control Treatment (PCT) and Panic Focused Psychodynamic Psychotherapy (PFPP) respectively. The sample of 20 patients was a subsample from the project POSE, Psychotherapy outcome and self-selection effects for panic disorder, where the patients had been diagnosed with panic disorder with or without agoraphobia
The Bogong moth Agrotis infusa is a long-distance nocturnal migrant whose navigational ability still remains only partly understood. They travel up to a thousand kilometres to the Australian Alps where they seek out the shelter of isolated cool alpine caves, thereby escaping the approaching summer heat of their breeding grounds. Once in the caves, they enter a state of dormancy over the coming sum
The aim of this study is to analyze the differences in years of education for men and women, and how these differences affect economic growth. The author believes there is a significant loss of human capital in the world, when girls for different reasons do not reach the same level of education as boys. This loss becomes clear by inspecting the literacy rate for each gender, and when viewing the o
The current paper examines to what extent different factors influence our ability to remember. Data used in the analysis origins from a psychological memory experiment conducted at the University of Lund. During the study phase of the experiment, participants viewed different objects which could either appear as a word or a picture. The object type was randomly chosen which resulted in varying seq
This work consists of seven essays, with each concerning a specific subject that is related to architecture. There is additional text, which pertains to this work's examination requirements for graduating the architecture-program at Lund Technical University. This work is a creative explorations through writing as a tool; through text; becoming able to formulate, conceptualize, develop and ext
What happens when you take a normal city and try to cram more people into it, without expanding the surface on which it can grow? Maybe you end up with something like Manhattan or Tokyo, with skyscrapers standing side by side and large roads cutting in-between them. Now we try to fit some more people in. Then you might get something similar to Hong Kong, more compact, more layered and with even le
Det kraftigt förändrade omvärldsläget och den nu förändrade miljön som Sveriges armé förväntas agera i ställer allt högre krav på tillgängligheten hos arméns tekniska system. En möjlig lösning för att underlätta planering och genomförande av underhåll är användningen av digitala beslutsstödsystem. Den här studien utforskar vilka funktionaliteter som bör finnas i ett beslutsstödsystem som är anpassThe significantly altered global security environment and the changing operational context in which the Swedish Army is expected to act place increasing demands on the availability of the Army’s technical systems. One possible solution to facilitate the planning and execution of maintenance is the use of digital decision support systems. This study explores which functionalities should be included
We are facing a continuous increase in humanitarian crises. All humanitarian emergencies affect People in Need differently. The wish for a more inclusive picture of the affected people suitable for humanitarian response is becoming more significant. The concept of intersectionality, in the sense of Crenshaw, promises to add precisely this perspective to humanitarian response. With the help of meth
I arbetet med att göra industrin mer energieffektiv har packningsförsedda värmeväxlare en betydande roll då den effektivt överför värme mellan fluider. Detta exjobb ämnar at utreda och utveckla en ny stöttande fot till Alfa Lavals packningsförsedda värmeväxlare. Målet var att ta fram en design som kan klara av allvarliga externa laster genererade av till exempel ett anslutande rörsystem eller jordIn the process of making the industry more energy efficient, the gasketed plate heat exchanger has an important role as it effectively transfers heat between fluids.
