Combining video clips with forum discussions is a useful strategy in web-based distance learning. This article documents experiences from a project where specially recorded ‘user movies’ were used as a means of incorporating a user perspective in a web-based course on maintenance treatment of opiate addiction. User movies can help solve two common pedagogical challenges in distance learning. First

Popular Abstract in English According to the International Diabetes Federation (IDF), 415 million people suffer from diabetes worldwide. Diabetes occurs when the pancreatic beta cells are no longer able to produce or properly use insulin. Insulin regulates blood glucose levels by enabling glucose uptake into cells, providing the body with energy. Elevated glucose levels cause damages to highly vasDiabetes mellitus is metabolic disorder caused by a defect or lack of beta cell-produced insulin that controls blood glucose homeostasis. In addition to glucose, insulin secretion is regulated by the autonomic nervous system (ANS); the neurotransmitter acetylcholine as well as monoamines, such as dopamine, serotonin, melatonin and norepinephrine. Using a MafA mutant mouse model, we show that MafA

Popular Abstract in Swedish Talet om det mångkulturella i skolan och samhället: En analys av diskurser om det mångkulturella inom utbildning och politik åren 1973-2006 Det svenska samhället har under de senaste tre decennierna påverkats av debatter, rapporteringar och diskussioner om det mångkulturella samhället. Frågan om hur man ska handskas med ?det mångkulturella? har uppfattats och beskrivitThe debate on "multicultural issues" has had a considerable impact on society, and in Sweden, dealing with such issues has been described and defined as a major problem. The aim of the present thesis is to analyse the various contents of discourses on multicultural issues that have influenced education and policy documents during the period 1973-2006. On several occasions, the Swedish government h

This paper contains the analysis of the transmission problem with a spherical, dielectric (possibly lossy) shell. The sources to the problem are located inside the spherical, dielectric shell. Two different source configurations are investigated - an off-center located electric dipole and a circular Huygens surface.

Background: The ageing population is increasing worldwide, and this trend is bringing challenges both for the older person and for society. In order to meet the challenges a comprehensive approach is needed involving both health promotion and risk prevention. The preventive home visit is a public health intervention used around the world with the purpose of promoting health and preventing risk amo

Background: How we identify ourselves is strongly related to employment. Young adults are a vulnerable group with regard to entering the Labor market. If they also have mental health problems, entering becomes more difficult and increases risk of early marginalization. Nevertheless, working can be essential for personal recovery process. Aims: To explore experiences of young adults with mental hea

Ethics is increasingly recognized as one of several important dimensions of performance. Yet, performance audit, or value-for-money audit, as conducted by supreme audit institutions (SAIs), does not typically include this dimension. Instead, the focus is on the classical ‘three Es’ (efficiency, economy and effectiveness). The reluctance to address issues of ethical misconduct has taken the audit p

This dissertation deals with the effects of nuclear structure on the α-decay properties, and on the fission-yielddistributions from the decay of heavy nuclei. The nuclear-structure and decay properties of superheavynuclei is one of the central topics for investigation. α decay is treated in a microscopic approach employingSkyrme-Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov wave functions to describe the formation of a

Ligand exchange at square-planar [Pd(MeCN)4]2+ and [Pd(EtCN)4]2+ has been studied by 1H NMR line broadening and at [Pt(MeCN)4]2+ and [Pt(EtCN)4]2+ by isotopic labelling using 1H NMR spectroscopy in deuteriated nitromethane. Exchange takes place via two-term rate laws Rex/4 = (k1 + k2[RCN])cM with well defined k1 paths. Rate constants per co-ordination site k1298/s–1, k2298/kg mol–1 s–1 are 6.9 ± 1Ligand exchange at square-planar [Pd(MeCN)4]2+ and [Pd(EtCN)4]2+ has been studied by 1H NMR line broadening and at [Pt(MeCN)4]2+ and [Pt(EtCN)4]2+ by isotopic labelling using 1H NMR spectroscopy in deuteriated nitromethane.

Over the years, remanufacturing practices have grown in popularity in industrial areas. It is one of the most effective ways to keep products out of landfills by turning end-of-life items into usable products. However, the available literature on cost models is limited or specific to a product. A general cost model for remanufacturing is presented in this paper to understand the major costs involv

On-Going Change in English Modality: Emancipation Through Frequency The English modal expressions BE going to, HAVE got to, and want to are often contracted to gonna, gotta, and wanna in spoken language. These contracted forms have gained both in frequency and conventionality in recent times.In this article, I present an investigation into the status of the contractions between phonetic reduction

Exploring new ways of studying communication and interactions in media and journalism is of high interest considering that we live in a constantly transforming media landscape. To build sustainable journalism and media organizations requires a holistic approach of the development involving audience, news producers and other stakeholders.This panel originates from studies applying action research o
