In mathematical education it is crucial to have a good teaching plan and to execute it correctly. In particular, this is true in the field of numerical analysis. Every teacher has a different style of teaching. This thesis studies how the basic material of a particular topic in numerical analysis was developed in four different textbooks. We compare and evaluate this process in order to achieve a
With sustainability at the forefront of many cities’ urban development plans, it is possible that sustainable polices are targeted to attract a certain group of inhabitants. Malmö, Sweden, has implemented changes in order to gain international recognition as a green city but has also been experiencing growing residential segregation. The presence of urban greening projects is a keystone to human h
Saltmarshes are areas of coastal grassland that are regularly flooded by seawater. They support a large number of resident and migratory bird species, both overwintering and breeding. The Mersey Estuary Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) is situated in North West England and it supports nationally significant numbers of overwintering wildfowl and waders. Decline of three overwintering bird
Purpose: The purpose of this study is trying to understand which elements are essential to obtain loyalty in the alcoholic beverage industry and how companies can focus their branding efforts on these drivers of loyalty. Methodology: A literature review is conducted to identify the key drivers which can influence brand loyalty. These drivers are then analysed by researching two case studies, Hein
Since 1992 the European Union has been granting certificates attesting the veracity and legitimacy of products in all of the EU. Such certificates are a symbol of the importance given by the European Union to the protection of regional products against falsifications of unique foodstuff products and the maintenance of good reputation of rural producers and rural areas. There is, however, a great
This thesis examines how sustainability is prioritised politically and integrated in the Danish municipal primary and lower secondary education. It consults representatives from the Ministry of Education, the unicipality of Copenhagen and ten lower secondary education teachers about their perceptions of sustainability and education and their experiences with integration of sustainability education
The Standard Model of particle physics (SM) attempts to describe the fundamental particles and how they interact with each other. This model is however incomplete, as shown by various experimental observations. ATLAS is one of the experiments currently in operation at the Large Hadron Collider, which aims to search for new physics beyond the SM. To perform these searches, many ATLAS analyses look
This study evaluates and compares four green roof methods with the purpose to calculate how many green roofs that potentially can be built on already existing buildings in a city. The methods are created for the cities Braunschweig, Thessaloniki, Lisbon and Lund. All of the methods mainly use Geospatial Information Systems and remote sensing analysis as tools. In order to answer the research quest
Denna studie utvärderar och jämför fyra grönatakmetoder med syftet att beräkna hur många gröna tak som potentiellt kan byggas på redan befintliga byggnader i en stad. Metoderna rör städerna Braunschweig, Thessaloniki, Lissabon och Lund. Geografiska informationssystem och fjärranalys används som verktyg i alla metoderna. Vidare observerar denna studie de kriterier som valts ut i metoderna och underThis study evaluates and compares four green roof methods with the purpose to calculate how many green roofs that potentially can be built on already existing buildings in a city. The methods concern the cities Braunschweig, Thessaloniki, Lisbon, and Lund. Geospatial Information Systems and remote sensing analysis are used as tools in all of the methods. Furthermore, this study observes the criter
Recent trends of permafrost thawing in the subarctic are expected to cause increased release of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) to inland waters, which might have cascading effects on downstream aquatic ecosystems and release of CO2 to the atmosphere. This study therefore aimed at evaluating the applicability of an empirical band ratio algorithm for estimating chromophoric dissolved organic matter
Stalaktiter och andra grottsediment har visat sig vara värdefulla verktyg för klimatrekonstruktioner. Med deras hjälp är det möjligt att rekonstruera förändringar av temperatur och nederbörd tillbaka i tiden. De är även användbara i arida områden där andra sedimenttyper sällan existerar. I den här studien undersöks en stalaktit från ”Al Hota”-grottan i norra Oman med hjälp av en petrografisk underSpeleothems and other cave sediments have proven to be valuable tools for climate reconstructions. They allow to reconstruct the changes of temperatures and precipitation over time even in arid areas where other types of sedimentary archives are scarce or even non-existent. In this study, a speleothem from Al Hota cave in northern Oman is investigated by means of petrographic interpretation and an
Realising social justice has been one of the central goals of the International Labour Organisation since its inception. Yet today the unique environment and dangers associated with working at sea make the world’s 1.2 million seafarers a particularly vulnerable group, both in terms of their physical safety and mental wellbeing, and concerning the realisation of social justice. Social justice is a
The purpose of this study was to examine ten women's experiences of negative sanctions for entering into a love-marriage, especially the negative sanction of reduced kin-support, and in which way this can be perceived to be of significance when it comes to women's capability to manage the challenges experienced in married life. This has been done by applying a qualitative research strategy
Background: With todays’ requirement of shorter product life cycles and faster time-to-market, producing companies experience an increased demand for faster transports in the supply chain. This puts pressure on freight forwarders to offer their customers a timely and reliable transport service at a reasonable price. Another challenge for the freight forwarders in Sweden is to provide such services
The WEEE Directive requires the producers to fulfil e-waste compliance according to the extended producer responsibility (EPR) principle. In order for producers to comply with the requirements nationally, collective compliance schemes were formed. Usually the manufacturers join together and form producer responsibility organisations (PROs) which take the responsibility for organising the waste man
Crime is not only a legal area, but can also be seen as a way of life for some people. The criminal lifestyle is one of Sweden today’s biggest social problem involving a lot of people, both those who execute the crime and those exposed to it. The most common time to start a criminal career is during adolescence. Only a small percentage of this group continues life of criminal actions but calculate
Objectives: This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows:. To assess the benefits and harms of methylxanthines in preventing or treating intermittent hypoxemia or respiratory insufficiency in late preterm infants.
