Vår avsikt med denna undersökning är att presentera eventuella utmaningar med e-lärandesystem och hur dessa utmaningar kan bemötas. E-lärande är ett kraftfullt redskap för att förmedla information och kunskap till studenter. Genom att använda digitala plattformar för lärande öppnas nya möjligheter för att ta del av och lära sig ny kunskap, med detta tillkommer även utmaningar och hinder. Genom en
To compete on the global market many companies need to undergo fundamental organizational changes. However, many companies fail to make successful transformations. To identify the factors that contribute to a successful transformation, some researchers have focused on a micro perspective and investigated employees’ characteristics and attitudes (e.g., organizational commitment, readiness for chang
Healthcare is facing several upcoming challenges, such as individuals tending to become unhealthier, which is the cause of many chronic diseases and lack of healthcare professionals, resulting in decreased efficiency in healthcare. A shift to preventive healthcare could reverse this trend by focusing on improving the living habits of the population. Internet of Things technology has enabled tools

In recent years the concept of “Blue carbon” has brought attention to the importance of Mangroves, Seagrass and Saltmarsh ecosystems in carbon cycles. Concerns over climate change has had countries commit to decreasing CO2 emissions, often using natural processes to sequester CO2. This trend has often followed a market approach through creating a monetary value and market for CO2. This Climate Fin
This paper navigates the subject of economic growth and energy use, with a focus on environmental sustainability. The aim is to investigate the relationship between the renewable share of total primary energy supply and the GDP per capita growth rate by conducting an empirical study on the OECD member states. The growth rate of GDP has for a long time been used as a measure of economic growth and
Bakgrund: Psykisk ohälsa ökar i Sverige och alternativa behandlingsmetoder efterfrågas alltmer. Dock är evidensen bristfällig och trots att hästunderstödd rehabilitering är en aktivitetsbaserad rehabiliteringsform är arbetsterapeutisk forskning inom området nästintill obefintlig. Syfte: Att granska befintlig evidens avseende hästunderstödd rehabilitering för personer med psykisk ohälsa, med stöd a
Sjukvården i Sverige har gjort många försök med digitalisering, men separata och process-specifika system som ibland utvecklats självständigt av personalen har resulterat i en ineffektiv vård. Region Skåne är först i ledet med implementeringen av det heltäckande Skånes Digitala Vårdsystem, SDV. Stora systemimplementeringar som resulterar i genomgripande verksamhetsförändringar har dock visat sig v
Sociala medier tar en allt större plats i vår vardag. Instagram är en av de sociala medier som vanligast i Sverige och bland gymnasieelever är antalet användare stort. Syftet med denna studien var därför att undersöka hur användningen av Instagram påverkade gymnasieelevers självbild. Metoden som valdes till denna studien var kvalitativa intervjuer med 10 gymnasieelever från två kommuner i Skåne. FSocial media´s position in our everyday life is expanding. Instagram is one of the most common used social networking sites in Sweden and amongst secondary school students the quantity of users is high. The aim of this study was therefore to examine how the use of Instagram affects the body image of secondary school students. The method chosen for this study was qualitative interviews with ten sec
The purpose of this thesis is to investigate if Basel III has contributed to financial stability and if the capital requirements ensure financial stability in Europe. With the use of mixed methods this paper answers this question both quantitatively, by looking at the European banks empirically between the years of 2013-2018, and qualitatively, by conducting interviews and analyzing studies on the
Empirical research suggests that a more sophisticated model of consumer behavior, than the one provided by neoclassical economic theory, is needed. Behavioral economics takes into consideration that individuals are not entirely rational in the traditional sense, and that there are many ways in which their behavior deviates from what could be expected based on classic theory. Profit maximizing comp
The increasing awareness of resource depletion has led to a growing interest in adapting a more efficient use of resources within multiple sectors to support a more sustainable development. One sector that uses large amounts of resources, with the high use of consumables, is the healthcare sector. The purpose of this study is to perform a life cycle assessment of three possible alternatives of ce
Digitaliseringen förutses bli en av de starkaste förändringsfaktorerna i samhället de kommande åren. Denna studie ämnar att undersöka möjligheter och hinder i samband med digitaliseringsprojekt inom kommuner. Utgångspunkten är en kvalitativ intervjuundersökning av tjänstemännen som har det övergripande och strategiska ansvaret för kommunernas digitaliseringsarbete. Den teoretiska utgångspunkten oc
The aggregation of α-synuclein into fibrils has been long proven to be closely related to the toxicity leading to Parkinson’s disease. In this process, medium-sized intermediates called oligomers are formed, a heterogeneous group of aggregates formed by a small number of monomers. While fibrils have been proven to cause little to no toxicity, oligomers have been demonstrated to induce cell death.
Climate change is one of the most pressing issues researched in Sustainability Science. Even though risks and consequences have been shown, actions to reduce emissions have been unsuccessful. UNFCCC is the global center for climate change policy and the host of the greatest concerted will to fight climate change, the Paris Agreement. Even with the hopeful aim and goals of the agreement, global emi
The aim of this paper was to establish sources for microplastic fibres and fragments based on the presence of specific colours (I) within different land use classes and (II) in relation to the location of wastewater treatment plants. Most of the colours did not result in significantly different counts between the land use classes, except for black fragments, which resulted in significantly higher
Beslutsfattande, förmågan att navigera sig genom problem, blir mer allt mer komplext i takt med att allt mer information tillgängliggörs digitalt. Billigare datorprestanda medger möjlighet att underbygga beslutsfattande, men ställer liksom övrig systemutveckling krav på modellering. Decision Model and Notation (DMN) är en relativt ung modelleringsnotation som omfattar beslutsfattande. Begriplighet
This piece of work aims at gaining a better understanding of how cognitive and sensual experiences takes place when we interact within the social encounter processes of shared spaces. The structure of this thesis starts off with a theoretical review based on the aspects of social encounters divided into the following areas: affect theory, the ideal of sympathy, and situated multiplicity. These t
