Effective teaching and its impact on student outcome has been operationalized in previous research through formal measures and external observations, but also through measurements based on teacher self-reports. Thus, although the recipients of teaching are the students themselves, the students’ perceptions of effective teaching and teacher behaviors, and potential links to student academic outcome

Butterfly wing coloration and pattern are believed to be shaped by selection pressures arising from the needs of thermoregulation, as signals to conspecifics, or reducing predation risk. The Common Blue Butterfly (Polyommatus icarus) display a large variation in dorsal wing blueness among females. The gradual pattern of brown to blue wings varies between individual females and among populations in

In this study a module for calculating the solar exposure of individual fluid cells was developed to more accurately represent the effect of photolysis on the pollutant dispersion in an urban street canyon. The module was tested and validated on 12 different cases, each with a different geographical location, time of year and/or time of day. It was used for four parallel simulations performed on a

Syftet med detta examensarbete är att bidra med kunskap om snickares matematikanvändning och fråga om byggelever tror att matematik används i yrket, och i så fall vilken.

The European Union (EU) has faced numerous severe crises during the 21st century. Rather than standing united and finding joint solutions, the intergovernmental negotiations have often revolved around furthering member state preferences, and maximising individual outcomes.
