Den här uppsatsen berör samspelet mellan undervisning och informationsteknologier. Teoretiskt har vi gått djupare in på hur elevernas och lärarnas roll förhåller sig till problembaserad lärandemetodik. Vi har samlat in empiriskt material efter kvalitativa intervjuer som vi har genomfört med lärare från högstadiet och gymnasiet. Empirin har analyserats tillsammans med våra teoretiska kapitel där v
In the German electrical market, where no hydro power is present, the demand for regulating power is rising. The main reason for this is the expansion of solar and wind power, which is desirable from an environmental standpoint, but also introduces large and fast variations in production. To keep the necessary balance between production and consumption, the operation of thermal power plants is cha
Abstract We have done a study about how gender is constructed in substance abuse care. The aim is to see the constructions of gender on treatment centers by seeing how the staff, organization and treatment constructs gender. Our range is strategically selected to be able to answer the questions we had. Respondents represent seven people in three different treatment centers. To get answers to our q
This thesis explores the interlinking of evaluation and development through an anthropological lens by considering the indigenization process of an evaluation culture, and how evaluation travels across boundaries as an assemblage, similar to many other global phenomena. Central to the thesis is the national evaluation capacity building trend viewed as a two-sided project; first as internal capacit
Studien undersöker befintliga uppfattningar om progressiva avskrivningar på byggnader i bostadsrättsföreningar samt vad Bokföringsnämndens beslut kan få för konsekvenser för bostadsrättsföreningar och dess intressenter på marknaden.
I det här arbetet vill jag behandla skilsmässor och hur det påverkar föräldrarna och barnen, men framförallt hur det förändrar familjen som grupp. Oftast lägger vi den största vikten vid barnets behov, men vi gör det utifrån en vuxens tankar och ”förstånd”. Syftet med uppsatsen är att se hur familjen och dess medlemmar reagerar i en kris som en skilsmässa, , och frågeställningarna jag tänker arbet
The objective of this thesis is to examine rural populations' access to land in Ethiopia, in the light of land regulations and different obstacles. Using a qualitative research design, based on a literature study, the following topics will be discussed; land regulation, state-led industrial development, villagization program and land-grab. In conclusion, the regulatory framework forbids locals
This study investigates reconciliation processes, based on narratives of experiences from a rural area in Rift Valley, Kenya. A qualitative method has been used and ten interviews were followed out with people who had taken part in a reconciliation workshop run by the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Kenya. The authors also took part in such a workshop themselves. In the analysis, the theory of symb
Barn är en särskilt känslig grupp i samhället. Det genomförs därför återkommande nationella enkäter om deras miljörelaterade hälsa, kopplad till hem- och bostadsmiljö. Många barn tillbringar dock en betydande del av sin vakna tid i förskolan, men det har hittills inte funnits någon samlad bild över den fysiska miljön där, vare sig lokalt eller nationellt. Därför har Arbets- och miljömedicin i LundChildren are a particularly vulnerable group in society. It is therefore carried out national surveys on how their health is affected by their home and residential environment. Many children, however, spend a significant proportion of their waking hours in preschools and that environment has not been as closely monitored, neither locally nor nationally. Therefore Occupational and Environmental Med
In the light of changing global foreign direct investment (FDI) patterns, economic research has started to pay an increasing amount of attention to China as one of the new main investor countries, and emphasize the implications of this in the world economy. This thesis examines Chinese FDI flows and investor behavior in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), and relates this to the academic debate surrounding
The low levels of workforce participation achieved by Sweden’s immigrants is an issue that has challenged policymakers for over 35 years. Recently, the significance of this issue in the minds of Swedish voters has been made clear, as Sweden elected the first far-right anti-immigration party into parliament in almost 20 years. In late 2010, in an effort to combat the ongoing issue, the government i
This bachelor thesis mainly focuses on the cadmium in the environment, how we are exposed to cadmium and it´s human toxicity. Cadmium (Cd) is a heavy metal that occurs naturally in the earth's crust (0,08 -0,05 μg Cd/g). Pure cadmium minerals are rare and cadmium is often found associated with zinc minerals, such as sphalerite (ZnS) with a Cd-concentration usually lower than 0,5 percent. The
Models for dynamic simulation of a parabolic trough concentrating solar power plant were developed in Modelica for the simulation software Dymola. The parabolic trough power plant has a two-‐tank indirect thermal storage with solar salt for the ability to dispatch electric power later in the evening and during the night when little or no solar irradiation is present. The complete system consists
When we talk about the future of work we do no longer talk about “the paper less office” like we used to but the “no fixed work place office”. In the year of 2013 26% of the Swedish population was occasionally working flexible, meaning at other locations then the actual workplace. And this number is expected to increase in the upcoming years. The research made in this project consisted of differe
Leather is a material long used by humans and has found it’s way into many areas of our lives and homes. The project began with the intent to learn more about this material and investigate the techniques used today in the making of leather products. The first part consisted of several weeks of research, where it became apparent that leather is a material burdened by a dirty, environmentally unfrie
In Nepal, growing number of men work abroad leaving their wives back home. Study on the situation of these left behind wives is limited so far. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of outmigration of male labour migrants on gender roles in Nepalese context and to understand whether outmigration has bearing on women’s empowerment. Adopting purposive sampling and snowball technique
Syfte: Studiens syfte är att undersöka om det i teorin beskrivs faktorer inom hur man framgångsrikt kommunicerar en förändringsprocess som inte appliceras i praktiken, vilket i så fall kan ligga till grund för att en så stor del av förändringsprocesser inte implementeras. Metod: En kvalitativ tvärsnittsstudie utifrån en deduktiv ansats. Uppsatsens empiriska material insamlades genom semistrukturer
In recent years, the Arctic has been one of the most dynamic environments on Earth. As a result, scientific inquiry into the region has produced a large amount of data, with future projections of the volume of data for the Arctic as well as the Antarctic expected to increase by an order of magnitude. On the receiving end of these data, a challenge remains as how to best manage, archive and distrib
In the past few years women’s empowerment and gender equality initiatives have been under increasing pressure to measure their impact. This thesis explores the stakeholders’ experiences with the monitoring and evaluation practice with a case study of a women’s fund that provides grants to grassroots women’s organizations in South Africa. The study is based on previous research, the grassroots deve
