Politicization of EU Development Policy: The Role of External Perceptions (Case of Ukraine)

This article highlights the role of external audiences and their perceptions in analysing the politicization of EU development policy. We analyse how EU foreign assistance is understood in two different intermediary arenas of politicization – elites in different societal sectors and media – within Ukraine, a major recipient of EU aid. By investigating to what extent EU assistance is perceived to b

Acoustic design of ordinary rooms using absorbers and diffusers

With different activities in a room, room acoustic requirements differ and when the acoustic requirements are different, acoustic treatment must be adapted. This study focuses on room acoustics in ordinary public rooms such as classrooms and offices. By tradition the acoustic treatment in these rooms is an absorbent ceiling. Experiments have been carried out in a classroom where the baseline in th

Emission factors and composition of PM2.5 from laboratory combustion of five Western Australian vegetation types

This study investigated the emission of PM10 and PM2.5 (particulates with diameters of less than 10 µm and 2.5 µm, respectively) and the chemical composition of PM2.5 from laboratory combustion of five Australian vegetation types (three grasslands, a woodland and a forest). A mix of plants representative of Banksia (woodland) and Jarrah (forest) and three types of grasses (Spinifex – Triodia based

Teaching with Google Classroom : Claimed Usage, Perceived Effects and the Potential for Subject Learning

The use of digital tools in education is subject to debate in school as well as in wider society. This motivates studies on the potential of these tools to facilitate teaching and learning. One of the digital tools being used is Google Classroom (GC). In order to increase knowledge of its usage and effects in content teaching, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 18 teachers in Swedish cThe use of digital tools in education is subject to debate in school as well as in wider society.

Population biology and phenology of the colour polymorphic damselfly Ischnura elegans at its southern range limit in Cyprus

1. Geographically widespread species provide excellent opportunities to investigate how phenotypes change across large-scale environmental gradients. Temperature is a fundamental environmental variable and an important determinant of insect fitness. However, field research is often geographically restricted, and typically concentrated in northern latitudes. Basic population biology and phenotypic

Short proofs may be spacious : An optimal separation of space and length in resolution

A number of works have looked at the relationship between length and space of resolution proofs. A notorious question has been whether the existence of a short proof implies the existence of a proof that can be verified using limited space. In this paper we resolve the question by answering it negatively in the strongest possible way. We show that there are families of 6-CNF formulas of size n, fo

Yrkesutbildningens låga attraktionskraft : Ett problem utan lösning?

Det avslutande kapitlet omfattar en sammanfattning av de analyser och svar som författarna i denna bok lämnar på de tre frågor som har väglett texterna i denna antologi. Sammanfattningen kompletteras med resonemang förda i andra publikationer för att framhäva författarnas slutsatser, samtidigt är det i skrivande stund mycket svårt att hitta forskning som ger en annan bild av den svenska yrkesutbil

RIFM fragrance ingredient safety assessment, 3-octanol, CAS Registry Number 589-98-0

Summary: The existing information supports the use of this material as described in this safety assessment. 3-Octanol was evaluated for genotoxicity, repeated dose toxicity, reproductive toxicity, local respiratory toxicity, phototoxicity/photoallergenicity, skin sensitization, and environmental safety. Data from read-across analog 3-hexanol (CAS # 623-37-0) show that 3-octanol is not expected to
