  2. 16. Experiencing authenticity : the core of student learning in clinical practice

    Author : Katri Manninen; Charlotte Silén; Elisabet Welin Henriksson; Max Scheja; Trudie Roberts; management och etik informatik Inst för lärande Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The present thesis explored student learning at a clinical education ward with an explicit pedagogical framework. Although nursing students were the focus of the studies the intention is to gain more generally understanding of student learning in clinical settings. READ MORE

  4. 17. Visualizing the abyss of time : Students’ interpretation of visualized deep evolutionary time

    Author : Jörgen Stenlund; Konrad Schönborn; Lena Tibell; Gunnar Höst; Camillia Matuk; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Deep evolutionary time; Visualization; Evolution; Science Education; Djup evolutionär tid; Visualiseringar; Naturvetenskapernas didaktik;

    Abstract : The immense time scales involved in Deep evolutionary time (DET) is a threshold concept in biology and interpreting temporal aspects of DET is demanding. DET is communicated through various visualizations that include static two-dimensional representations, low interactivity animations, as well as high interactivity interfaces. READ MORE

  5. 18. Mathematical Multi-Objective Optimization of the Tactical Allocation of Machining Resources in Functional Workshops

    Author : Sunney Fotedar; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Decision-making; Robust efficient solutions; Discrete bi-objective optimization; Capacity planning; Discrete tri-objective optimization; Production planning; Coverage gap;

    Abstract : In the aerospace industry, efficient management of machining capacity is crucial to meet the required service levels to customers and to maintain control of the tied-up working capital. We introduce new multi-item , multi-level capacitated resource allocation models with a medium--to--long--term planning horizon. READ MORE

  6. 19. Science, Language, and Literacy : Case Studies of Learning in Swedish University Physics

    Author : John Airey; Cedric Linder; Roger Säljö; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physics; Learning; Higher education; Bilingualism; Language choice; Science education; Scientific literacy; Bilingual scientific literacy; Disciplinary discourse; Discourse imitation; Semiotics; Physics Education Research; Physics; Fysik; Fysik med inriktning mot fysikens didaktik; Physics with specialization in Physics Education; Science Education; Engelsk språkvetenskap; Fysik; Pedagogik och Utbildningsvetenskap; Pedagogics;

    Abstract : This thesis presents an investigation of undergraduate student learning with respect to physics lectures attended in English and Swedish. The work studies three connected areas: student learning patterns, bilingual scientific literacy and disciplinary discourse. READ MORE

  7. 20. Mathematical Optimization of the Tactical Allocation of Machining Resources in Aerospace Industry

    Author : Sunney Fotedar; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Capacity planning; Bi-objective mixed integer programming; Robust efficient solutions; Robust optimization; Decision-making.;

    Abstract : In the aerospace industry, efficient management of machining capacity is crucial to meet the required service levels to customers (which includes, measures of quality and production lead-times) and to maintain control of the tied-up working capital. We introduce a new multi-item , multi-level capacitated planning model with a medium-to-long term planning horizon. READ MORE
