Det är viktigt att förstå att de insatser som görs för att förbättra skolan alltid baseras på både kunskapssyn och människosyn. Att kräva att alla elever får stöd i tid och har engagerade och kunniga lärare visar på en samtida kunskaps- och människosyn, grundad i forskning om lärande och barns utveckling.

This paper presents the results of a qualitative study of user behaviour on the World-Wide Web. Eight participants were filmed whilst performing user-defined tasks and then asked to review the video-taped session during prompted recall. This data forms the basis for a series of descriptions of user behaviour and the postulation of a number of underlying cognitive mechanisms. Our results indicate t

I give an overview of the calculations done in three-flavour Chiral perturbation theory at next-to-next-to-leading order with an emphasis on those relevant for an improvement in the accuracy of the measurement of Vus. It is pointed out that all needed low energy constants can be obtained from experiment via the scalar form-factor in Kl3 decays

We propose a distributed optimization algorithm for mixed L_1/L_2-norm optimization based on accelerated gradient methods using dual decomposition. The algorithm achieves convergence rate O(1/k^2), where k is the iteration number, which significantly improves the convergence rates of existing duality-based distributed optimization algorithms that achieve O(1/k). The performance of the developed al

Combinatorial optimization provides a powerful framework for solving complex optimization problems with general-purpose solvers by modelling the problem in an abstract language. Due to breakthroughs in algorithms to solve combinatorial optimization problems in last decades, combinatorial optimization has become a valid approach to solve many real world problems efficiently. Key application areas a

We give an expression for the Garsia entropy of Bernoulli convolutions in terms of products of matrices. This gives an explicit rate of convergence of the Garsia entropy and shows that one can calculate the Hausdorff dimension of the Bernoulli convolution νβ to arbitrary given accuracy whenever β is algebraic. In particular, if the Garsia entropy H(β) is not equal to log(β) then we have a finite t

We study fully differential quarkonia photoproduction observables in ultraperipheral collisions as functions of momentum transfer squared. We employ the dipole picture of the QCD part of the scattering with proton and nucleus targets, with the projectile being a quasireal photon flux emitted by an incoming hadron. We analyze such observables for ground J/ψ, (1S) and excited ψ′, (2S) states whose l

The challenge to develop sustainable products increases as resources becomes scarcer. Lifecycle Assessment (LCA) and Ecodesign have emerged to diminish product environmental impact from material gaining to disposal. LCA methods and tools, however, were not conceived to spur product design activities and decisions towards sustainable End-of-life (EoL) product conception, while Ecodesign requires ma

BACKGROUND: Cerebral palsy (CP) is a clinical diagnosis and was long categorized as an acquired disorder, but more and more genetic etiologies are being identified. This review aims to identify the clinical characteristics that are associated with genetic CP to aid clinicians in selecting candidates for genetic testing.METHODS: The PubMed database was systematically searched to identify genes asso

Introduction: In low- and middle-income countries such as India, private pharmacies play an important role in medical treatments, offering advice for common illnesses such as diarrhea and respiratory tract infections. There is a need to explore the details of the dispensing practices at the private pharmacies in low- and middle-income countries.Methodology: The present study used simulated client

In addition to the family context, persons in the neighborhood and community are important for individual life course, socioeconomic and demographic outcomes such as education, career and family transitions. This paper aims to study how neighborhood conditions in childhood influence fertility outcomes in adulthood.

Klima is a carbon-backed cryptocurrency running as a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). In 2021, it had accumulated 9 million metric tons of digital carbon credits and reached a market value of more than US$1 billion. In 2023, its treasury stored twice as many carbon credits, but its spot price was a tiny fraction compared to 2021. Building on prior scholarship at the intersection of car

Nominal classification is a robust feature in many Amazonian languages, and aspects of these systems offer significant challenges to our broader conception of the phenomenon. Yet a clear characterization of Amazonian classification systems must be firmly grounded in detailed descriptive analysis on one hand, and in a principled definition of classification as a typological category on the other –

Background: Endogenous retroviruses ( ERVs) and solitary long terminal repeats ( LTRs) have a significant antisense bias when located in gene introns, suggesting strong negative selective pressure on such elements oriented in the same transcriptional direction as the enclosing gene. It has been assumed that this bias reflects the presence of strong transcriptional regulatory signals within LTRs bu
