  1. 1. Internal capacities for school improvement : Principals' views in Swedish secondary schools

    Författare :Conny Björkman; Anders Olofsson; Olof Johansson; Kauko Hämäläinen; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; school improvement; successful schools; capacity building; internal capacities; collaboration forms; staff development; leadership; principals´ views; Education; Pedagogik;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to describe and analyse principals´ views of collaboration forms, staff development and leadership, as critical internal capacities for school improvement, in five more successful and four less successful Swedish secondary schools, and compare the qualitative similarities and/or differences in the principals´ views at the level of schools. A successful school is understood to be a school where pupils accomplish both the academic objectives and the social/civic objectives in the National Curriculum. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Calibration of Urban Network Capacities

    Författare :Guang Wei; Gunnar Flötteröd; Joakim Ekström; Zhenliang Ma; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Capacity of a road in an urban network is defined as the maximum number of vehicles which could pass this road in a unit time. Since travel delays occur when the travel demand exceeds the capacity, performance of congestion estimation strongly depends on capacity values. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Sulphide capacities of mulicomponent slags

    Författare :Mselly M. Nzotta; KTH; []

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this study is to develop a better understanding of the relation between housing recovery and user involvement from a capability perspective. The thesis studies housing recovery in areas affected by typhoon Haiyan, which struck the Philippines on 8th November 2013. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Uncertain Futures : Adaptive capacities to climate variability and change in the Lake Victoria Basin

    Författare :Sara Gabrielsson; LUCSUS; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; adaptive capacities; climate vulnerability; collective action; Lake Victoria Basin; smallholder farmers; sustainable adaptation; sustainability science.;

    Sammanfattning : The Lake Victoria basin (LVB) in East Africa can be considered a climate change hotspot because of its large rural population dependent on rain-fed farming. Drawing on extensive fieldwork (2007-2011) in rural communities along the shores of Lake Victoria in Kenya and Tanzania, I explore adaptive capacities to climate variability and change and discuss how they interrelate in situ.
