Students’ learning developments of limits were studied in a calculus course. Theiractions, such as problem solving and reasoning, were considered traces of theirmental representations of concepts and were used to describe the developmentsduring a semester. Several students went through the course with a vague conception of limits which in some cases was wrong. A higher awareness about their mental
The paper presents a work in progress which is part of a larger study. Studentslearning analysis was investigated with the aim to find out how their concept images changed from the beginning of an analysis course to a year after the course. Their links between concepts were studied after the year had passed. The influence of the students’ pre-knowledge was durable and sometimes prevented students
Any diplomatic resolution of Iran’s nuclear controversy will deprive Israeli hawks of what they see as the sole feasible justification to overthrow the Iranian regime by military force.
Bone is a complex hierarchical structure mainly comprising of a matrix of collagen and hydroxyapatite. The main physiological functions of bone include regulating skeletal remodeling, calcium homeostasis and providing a congenial environment to the bone marrow cells to reside and these physiological processes are intricately regulated by various cell types and biomolecules. During trauma to the sk
A “clean-label” gluten-free bread (GFB) was developed by replacing the commonly used hydrocolloid additive, methylcellulose, with an aqueous flaxseed slurry (FSS), known for its structure-forming properties, at 3 or 4.5 % levels into GFB formulations; for further nutritional improvement of GFB, the inclusion of 5 or 10 % roasted-sprouted lentil flour (SLF) was also investigated. FSS and SLF additi
The paper explores the role and meaning of maṣlaḥa (social utility) and its possible appropriation in the field of Islamic legal and economic thought, as laid down by various medieval and contemporary Muslim scholars. Questions that are pertinent to the research are the following: how has maṣlaḥa been incorporated in legal reasoning and what kind of meaning does it convey; what type of economic (a
China is a global leader in the manufacturing of clean energy. Unexpectedly, the severe environmental degradation occurring since the 1990s and the critical air pollution situation are now under control. Many steps still need to be taken in order to fix all the problems linked with the long-term environmental crisis. However, since Xi Jinping’s advent to power in 2012, Beijing has undertaken a sol
Turkey is an exceedingly prosperous nation in terms of water. The Tigris and Euphrates, two of the most famous and iconic watercourses in the Middle East (and beyond), flow from the Anatolian mountains within Turkey's borders. This gives Ankara enormous power in geopolitical terms, especially towards the Arab countries downstream, which have always grappled with worrying water supply crises. Over
Education is considered to be one of the most important tools for enabling the transition to a sustainable society, and it is commonly agreed that education for sustainable development (ESD) should be pluralistic, democratic and promote critical thinking. However, there are indications that education might be dominated by green consumerist approaches to solving environmental problems. If this is t
This study aims to investigate how girls within SiS special residential homes for youths are constructed in Swedish news media. The study is based on the social constructivist perspective and Yvonne Hirdman's gender theory. The theory choices have been made to make visible how words in news media construct both gender and the overall image of girls within SiS special residential homes for yout
The Ararat Valley, being the cereal basket of Armenia and Turkey, is in danger with over-abstracted groundwater, which already induces colossal water loss and land subsidence. In the current work, advanced remote sensing techniques and machine learning models are applied to predict subsidence and give datadriven recommendations to effect sustainable water management. The tracking of terrain change
Sammanfattningsvis kan sägas att insamlingsorganisationernas arbete med fördelning av kostnader är en viktig del i deras arbete med att skapa legitimitet gentemot omgivningen. Tyvärr är dock reglerna de har att utgå ifrån något subjektiva vilket kan försvåra deras möjligheter till att vara tydliga och transparanta. Vi har sett att alla organisationers verksamheter påverkas av många olika faktorer
Co-branding är ett fenomen som förekommer alltmer inom flera olika branscher. Tidigare forskning inom detta fält har påvisat dess synergieffekter men har denna form av samarbete ingen mörk baksida? Vi har problematiserat co-branding som fenomen genom att undersöka tre grundläggande faktorer för ett koncept. Dessa är grundtanken för koncept, kommunikation och målgrupp vilka sammanlänkas genom en rö
