Challenges and tension fields in classical instrumental group tuition: interviews with Swedish Art and Music School teachers

Gruppundervisning sprids snabbt över världen, men lite forskning har utförts för att undersöka dess inverkan på elevers musikaliska förmågor jämfört med inkludering i gruppundervisningssammanhang. Den här artikeln undersöker hur musiklärare från den klassiska orkesterinstrumentala traditionen diskuterar gruppundervisning. Tre fokusgruppsintervjuer genomfördes med deltagare från en kulturskola i SvGroup teaching is rapidly spreading across the world, but little research has been conducted to investigate its impact on students’ musical abilities in comparison to inclusion in group tuition contexts. This article investigates how music teachers from the classical orchestra instrumental tradition discuss group tuition. Three focus group interviews were conducted with participants from one Art a

Taking credit for stupidity: On being a student in the performative university

Stupidity is generally thought of as a hindrance to learning: an epistemic vice that stands in the way of knowledge and understanding. In this article, I challenge this idea by exploring some of the meanings of stupidity that place it in a positive relation to learning. In this light, the article discusses two notions of stupidity: stupidity as unfinished thought and stupefaction through study. I

Using urban building energy modeling to quantify the energy performance of residential buildings under climate change

The building sector is facing a challenge in achieving carbon neutrality due to climate change and urbanization. Urban building energy modeling (UBEM) is an effective method to understand the energy use of building stocks at an urban scale and evaluate retrofit scenarios against future weather variations, supporting the implementation of carbon emission reduction policies. Currently, most studies

Varieties of violence in street culture

Violence is central to social life, especially for people at the margins of urban society. This article examines ethnographic data collected in Oslo among individuals who are involved in street life and crime. We propose the following typology for understanding violence in this population: respect-based violence, business violence, drunken violence, and family violence. We argue that from an emic

CITED1 as a marker of favourable outcome in anti-endocrine treated, estrogen-receptor positive, lymph-node negative breast cancer.

Objective: To investigate CITED1 as a potential biomarker of anti-endocrine response and breast cancer recurrence, given its previously determined role in mediating estrogen-dependant transcription. The study is a continuation of earlier work establishing the role of CITED1 in mammary gland development.Results: CITED1 mRNA is associated with estrogen-receptor positivity and selectively expressed i

Research solution for automatic hole quality analysis when drilling fiber-reinforced composites

Fiber-reinforced polymers are highly demanding composites in aerospace and automotive areas because of their excellent mechanical properties such as stiffness and strength-to-weight ratio. The drilling remains the major machining operation applied to composites to provide high-quality holes for joints between parts. Due to composites plied structure, the drilling is accompanied with unusual form m

Advancing search engine studies: The evolution of Google critique and intervention

In this piece, which frames the special issue, “The State of Google Critique and Intervention,” we provide an overview of research focusing on Google as an object of critical study, fleshing out the European interventions that actively attempt to address its dominance. The article begins by mapping out key areas of articulating a Google critique, from the initial focus on ranking and profiling to

Michael W. Ford (The Order of Phosphorus, etc.), The Bible of the Adversary (2007)

Ford’s writings, as well as his organizations, have a pronounced eclectic approach, weaving together several religious tenets, such as Zoroastrian, Sumerian, and Western Judeo/Christian esoteric elements. The Bible of the Adversary (2007) is a key text in Ford’s Luciferian ideology. The chapter then consi
