1. 1. Collaborating for Energy Efficient Shipping - An Ethnographic Study

   Författare :Josefin Borg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Collaborative challenges; Energy efficiency; Inter-organisational collaboration; Ethnographic study; Practice-oriented perspective; Energy efficiency collaboration; Collaborative practices; Organising; Shipping;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to better understand the emergent organising of an inter-organisational collaboration for energy efficiency in shipping, from a practice-oriented perspective. Interorganisational collaboration is often pointed to as a means towards sustainable development, and research on energy efficiency collaboration has emerged over the last decade. LÄS MER

3. 2. Reducing uncertainties in climate change impact studies through uni- and multivariate methods : A Nordic perspective

   Författare :Faranak Tootoonchi; Claudia Teutschbein; Jan O. Haerter; Olle Räty; Thomas Grabs; Alex J. Cannon; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Climate change; precipitation and temperature; bias adjustment; bias correction; univariate and multivariate methods; hydrologic signatures; drought; Sweden; Geovetenskap med inriktning mot miljöanalys; Earth Science with specialization in Environmental Analysis;

   Sammanfattning : Climate change poses undeniable impacts on hydroclimatic processes due to simultaneous effects of rising temperature and changing precipitation patterns. To quantify these impacts, simulations of climate variables are typically retrieved from climate models, which are then downscaled and bias-adjusted for a particular study site. LÄS MER

4. 3. Leadership in digitalisation : A practice-oriented approach for expanding access and application of digital technologies in K–12 education

   Författare :Jussara Reis-Andersson; Jimmy Jaldemark; Marcia Håkansson Lindqvist; Mona Lundin; Mittuniversitetet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Collaboration; digitalisation; digital competence; digital technology; K–12 education; leader; leadership; practice; schools;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis aims to identify, describe, and analyse practices in school organisers’ and school leaders’ collaborative efforts to expand access to and application of digital technologies in K–12 education from a leadership perspective. A practice-oriented approach has been used to analyse practices for expanding this access and application. LÄS MER

5. 4. Engineering students’ ways of relating to wicked sustainability problems

   Författare :Johanna Lönngren; Magdalena Svanström; Åke Ingerman; John Holmberg; Arnold Pears; Sweden Gothenburg Chalmers University of Technology Department of Applied IT; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Engineering education; Engineering students; Wicked sustainability problems; Sustainable development; Perspective; Phenomenography; Complexity; didactics of natural science; naturvetenskapens didaktik;

   Sammanfattning : This licentiate thesis constitutes a part of a larger research effort that aims to provide a theoretical framework for understanding and working with engineering students’ ways of relating to wicked sustainability problems (WSPs) on the basis of conceptual, empirical, and practical considerations. Thus, the project aims to contribute to an understanding of how engineering education can support students in developing the capabilities that they need to actively participate in discussions about sustainable development and to constructively deal with WSPs.

7. 5. Constructing Social Procurement: An Institutional Perspective on Working with Employment Requirements

   Författare :Daniella Troje; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; roles; institutional logics; institutional work; qualitative study; organisation; social procurement; construction and real estate sector; work; practice; employment requirements; rhetoric; social value; interviews;

   Sammanfattning : Private and public organisations are increasingly using their purchasing power to mitigate societal issues and create social value. This is called social procurement. Due to problems such as segregation, unemployment, and social exclusion, social procurement in Sweden has focused on employment requirements. LÄS MER
