Though there is a very large literature examining whether energy use Granger causes economic output or vice versa this literature is fairly inconclusive. Almost all existing studies use relatively short time series or panels with a relatively small time dimension. Additionally, many recent papers continue to use what seem to be misspecified models. We apply Granger causality and cointegration tech

Through in-depth interviews, students’ experiences and perceptions of good teaching practice in literature and physics during one school year were investigated in eight upper secondary classes of the first, second and third years in Greece. Students’ feelings of joy, pleasure and personal meaning in the teaching and learning situation were in focus of the research. Three main and interconnected as

For the 2012 Pedagogical Inspiration Conference for teachers at the Faculties of Humanities and Theology at Lund University, my course team and I presented a paper entitled “Interdisciplinarity, group responsibility and conflict as resources for learning”. The paper discussed our experiences with The City: Boundary Transgressions and Visual Expressions (KOVR02), an interdisciplinary course given i

Brand orientation is an approach in which the process of the organization revolve around the creation, development, and protection of brand identity in an ongoing interaction with the target group with the aim of achieving lasting competitive advantages.

Nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) is a solid-state radio frequency spectroscopic technique that can be used to detect compounds which contain quadrupolar nuclei, a requirement fulfilled by many high explosives and narcotics. Unfortunately, the low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the observed signals currently inhibits the widespread use of the technique, thus highlighting the need for intelligent

The number of applications in computer vision that model higher-order interactions has exploded over the last few years. The standard technique for solving such problems is to reduce the higher-order objective function to a quadratic pseudo-boolean function, and then use roof duality for obtaining a lower bound. Roof duality works by constructing the tightest possible lower-bounding submodular fun

We present an educational math game, including a teachable agent and an off-task conversation module in the form of a social chat. A recent study [1] indicates that the added off-task conversation module can i) improve students' game experience, ii) improve learning outcomes, and iii) engage learners in voluntary on-domain chat
