They have cast a shadow over the international education sector, but do the reasons politicians espouse for the changes stack up?

Swedish child and youth care is constantly developing. The legislation has revealed the intentions and core values established to guide the social services work with children and young people. According to social research, social workers must manage conflicting demands in their professional practice. They are required to make context-specific individual judgments within the broader legal framework

På järnvägsstationer passerar dagligen många människor som pendlar till och från arbete eller skola och ofta sker byter mellan olika transportmedel. Vid dessa byten behöver oskyddade trafikanter (fotgängare, cyklister och elsparkcyklister) ofta korsa en väg vid ett övergångsställe. Beroende på övergångsställets reglering uppstår olika beteenden och konflikter. Oväntade beteenden hos oskyddade trafAt railway stations many people pass daily commuting to and from work or school, often switching between different forms of transportation. During the change of transportation, the unprotected road users (pedestrians, cyclists, and e-scooters) might need to cross a road at a crosswalk. Depending on the form om regulation of the crosswalk different behaviors and conflicts occurs. Unexpected behavio

Politiska ledningar runtom i Europa måste agera bestämt när något land helt eller delvis försöker dra sig undan finansieringen av kollektiva varor, skriver Jerker Holm, professor vid ekonomihögskolan, Lunds universitet.

Pool boiling is an effective heat dissipation approach in electronic cooling, battery thermal management, etc. This study used the electrochemical deposition method to fabricate one smooth nickel specimen (named Ni-smooth) and three specimens with a porous nickel-stacked structure. The three porous specimens were created with deposition current densities of 0.5 A·cm–2 (named Ni-0.5), 2.0 A·cm–2 (n

The CorA/Mrs2 family of pentameric proteins are cardinal for the influx of Mg2+ across cellular membranes, importing the cation to mitochondria in eukaryotes. Yet, the conducting and regulation mechanisms of permeation remain elusive, particularly for the eukaryotic Mrs2 members. Here, we report closed and open Mrs2 cryo-electron microscopy structures, accompanied by functional characterization. M

Det här kapitlet fördjupar förståelsen av elevers uppfattningar om läspraktiken shared reading (SR) som ett sätt för dem att utveckla sitt läsengagemang. I kapitlet redovisas en tematisk analys av en fokusgrupp med sju elever i gymnasieskolan som deltagit i sex SR-lektioner inom ramen för SVA1 på ett yrkesprogram. Resultatet relateras till en enkät om deras språkliga bakgrund och läsvanor samt en

The mammary parenchyma is a complex arrangement of tissues that can greatly vary among individuals, potentially masking cancers in breast screening images. In this work, we propose a Simplex-based method to simulate anatomical patterns and textures seen in digital breast tomosynthesis. Our approach involves selecting appropriate Simplex noise parameters to represent distinct categories of breast p

Background: Several actions have been taken to improve the sick listing process, patient safety and return to work. One of them is the implementation of the rehabilitation coordinator function, of which the benefits have not yet been fully explored. Neither has the role of the manager, who has significant impact on the implementation and support of a new function. This study aimed to explore how f

The Islamic financial sector has developed its instruments rapidly since the 1960s, and a Muslim customer can get almost all financial services supplied by the conventional Western type of financial sector through so-called participation banks, which are run, it is said, in compliance with Islamic values and norms. For instance, they collect funds by special methods to finance economic activities,

Starting from a single layer of NbS2 grown on graphene by molecular beam epitaxy, the single unit cell thick 2D materials Nb5/3S3-2D and Nb2S3-2D are created using two different pathways. Either annealing under sulfur-deficient conditions at progressively higher temperatures or deposition of increasing amounts of Nb at elevated temperature result in phase-pure Nb5/3S3-2D followed by Nb2S3-2D. The
