  1. 6. Adrenocorticolysis Induced by 3-MeSO2-DDE : Mechanisms of Action, Kinetics and Species Differences

    Författare :Veronica Lindström; Ingvar Brandt; Ulrika Bergström; Eva Brittebo; Hans Tjälve; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Toxicology; 3-methylsulphonyl-DDE; o; p -DDD; CYP11B1; adrenal cortex; tissue-specific toxicity; bioactivation; kinetics; Y-1 cells; Toxikologi; Biology; Biologi;

    Sammanfattning : The DDT metabolite 3-methylsulphonyl-DDE (3-MeSO2-DDE) induces cell death specifically in the adrenal cortex of mice after a cytochrome P45011B1 (CYP11B1)-catalysed bioactivation. This substance is not only an environmental pollutant, but also a suggested lead compound for an improved chemotherapy of adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC). LÄS MER

  4. 8. Making Room for Complexity in Group Collaborations: The Roles of Scaffolding and Facilitation

    Författare :Pia Andersson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; action research; adult development; awareness; coaction; collective efficacy; complexity; group facilitation; hope; metacognition; methods for complex issues; scaffolding;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis has a dual objective: the theoretical aim is to analyse how developmental scaffolding influences the way that group participants’ conceptions about societal issues of concern, appropriate goals and courses of action change as their awareness of the interconnectedness between different issues, conditions, causes and consequences increase. On a practical level, the thesis aims to contribute insights into the craft and role of facilitation for facilitators, project leaders, dialogue designers and other practitioners whose engagement in group processes involves scaffolding the understanding of issues that have a considerable degree of complexity.

  5. 9. Developing and Assessing Professional Competencies: a Pipe Dream? : Experiences from an Open-Ended Group Project Learning Environment

    Författare :Mats Daniels; Arnold Pears; Michael Thuné; Steven Seidman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Computing education research; engineering education research; computer science; open-ended group project; professional competencies; action research; educational research framework; learning; communities of practice; constructivism; conceptual change; threshold concepts; problem based learning; ill-structured problem solving; international student collaboration; constructive controversy; reflection; Datavetenskap med inriktning mot datavetenskapens didaktik; Computer Science with specialization in Computer Science Education Research;

    Sammanfattning : Professional competencies are explicitly identified in the primary learning outcomes for science and engineering degrees at many tertiary institutions.  Fulfillment of the requirements to equip our students with these skills, while formally acknowledged as important by all stakeholders, can be hard to demonstrate in practice.

  7. 10. Fitting Objects Into Holes : On the Development of Spatial Cognition Skills

    Författare :Helena Örnkloo; Claes von Hofsten; Kerstin Rosander; Jeffrey Lockman; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Psychology; toddlers; action planning; manipulation; means-end relationships; mental rotation; choice; positive-negative form; Psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Children’s ability to manipulate objects is the end-point of several important developments. To imagine objects in different positions greatly improves children’s action capabilities. They can relate objects to each other successfully, and plan actions involving more than one object. LÄS MER
