  1. 1. Experimenting with sustainability transformations: A study of Urban Living Labs in the food, water and energy nexus

    Författare :Darin Wahl; LUCSUS; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Transdisciplinary sustainability research; Urban Living Labs; experimentation; co-production; participatory methods; transformation; pluralism; food water energy nexus;

    Sammanfattning : Scholars and practitioners increasingly emphasize the importance of transdisciplinary and experimental approaches for understanding and addressing sustainability challenges. While there is widespread agreement that human society must undergo deep and radical changes, or so-called transformation, how transformation happens depends on multiple and dynamic factors in local contexts.

  2. 2. Living the Change : Designerly modes of real-life experimentation

    Författare :Martin Sjöman; Sara Ilstedt; Susanne Nilsson; Dan Lockton; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; design methods; transition design; participatory design; living labs; experimentation; sustainability; Art; Technology and Design; Konst; teknik och design; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Sammanfattning : The sustainability transitions required to address the climate crisis cannot be achieved by technology alone; radical lifestyle changes are needed. To contribute to meeting this critical challenge, design must move its focus from individual needs, desires, and behaviors to the level of the complex socio-technical systems that shape our society.

  3. 3. Connect : Modelling Learning to Facilitate Linking Models and the Real World trough Lab-Work in Electric Circuit Courses for Engineering Students

    Författare :Anna-Karin Carstensen; Jonte Bernhard; Christian Kautz; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Engineering Education; Engineering Education Research; Key concepts; Labwork; Laplace Transforms; Learning; Learning of a Complex Concept; Learning to model; Modelling learning; Models; Practical Epistemologies; Threshold concepts; Variation Theory;

    Sammanfattning : A recurring question in science and engineering education is why the students do not link knowledge from theoretical classes to the real world met in laboratory courses.Mathematical models and visualisations are widely used in engineering and engineering education. LÄS MER

  4. 4. The Sharing Economy in Cities : Institutionalisation and Sustainability

    Författare :Lucie Enochsson; Internationella miljöinstitutet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Sharing economy; Urban sharing; platforms; Institutional Work; sustainability; Governance;

    Sammanfattning : The sharing economy is a novel way of distributing physical resources facilitated by online platforms where temporary access is given to goods owned by peers or organisations. It has become prominent in urban areas where a large accumulation of resources in close proximity and the ubiquity of information and communications technology enable it to grow. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Forming future IT : the living lab way of user involvement

    Författare :Anna Ståhlbröst; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Informatik; Informatics;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis addresses the process of user involvement in the development of information technology (IT) systems. The motive for this research is that there is still a need of more knowledge about how users can be involved in IT-development when the aim is to develop solutions that represent user needs. LÄS MER
