This paper examines the implications of platforms as a repertoire for knowing and relating the intensities of pandemic restrictions on teaching and schoolwork. Building on platformisation in education, what work platforms do in unpredictable everyday pedagogical encounters is investigated. Specifically, the paper explores a methodological potential with platforms’ capabilities to pull some things This paper examines the implications of platforms as a repertoire for knowing and relating the intensities of pandemic restrictions on teaching and schoolwork.

Economic crimes are – often – abstract crimes. Even for a somewhat well-trained accounting expert, these crimes are ambiguous, hard to detect and difficult to interpret. The abstract character of economic crimes is a problem in need of a solution. The abstractness needs to be reduced in order to make the court case judicially manageable, i.e. possible to work with during the process of trial and l

Mass school closures and restricted mobility during the Covid-19 pandemic have intensified matters of technology, teaching, and participation in schools. In response to this situation, this paper examines how attendance practices work during school closure and screen-saturated pandemic isolation at a Swedish upper secondary school. The aim is to empirically and theoretically explore school closureMass school closures and restricted mobility during the Covid-19 pandemic have intensified matters of technology, teaching, and participation in schools.

This special issue is devoted to empirical studies on inequalities in living standard for different social groups in the past measured as their sensitivity to economic hardship, such as high food prices. The studies are similar in that they all make use of longitudinal microdata constructed from population registers and related sources that record the demographic behavior of individuals and situat

Background: Geant4, a Monte Carlo Simulation Toolkit extensively used in bio-medical physics, is in continuous evolution to include newest research findings to improve its accuracy and to respond to the evolving needs of a very diverse user community. In 2014, the G4-Med benchmarking system was born from the effort of the Geant4 Medical Simulation Benchmarking Group, to benchmark and monitor the e

This article explores lesson enactments as co-constitutive of human-technology relationality in everyday schooling, rather than neutral backdrops for educational activities. In doing so, the article introduces maintenance as its key concept, drawing on insights from maintenance studies and actor-network theory (ANT). Being both theoretically and empirically informed, maintenance means reconsiderinThis article explores lesson enactments as co-constitutive of human-technology relationality in everyday schooling, rather than neutral backdrops for educational activities.

My project began with conversations about accessible design. In one discussion, someone mentioned that her mother couldn’t use public seating because it was too low. This made me question why such essential furniture is often inaccessible to those who need it most. Motivated by this, I set out to design a seating solution focusing on universal design principles. I contacted my former Universal Des

This project explores how design can humanize the act of sound recording by shifting focus away from performance- and technology oriented design solutions. Through user research and an in-depth analysis of the current market, human-centered design principles were identified, highlighting the importance of intuitive controls and direct feedback in handheld audio devices. The findings highlight a gr

Antennas are fundamental components in the evolution of wireless communication systems, including current 5G networks and emerging 6G technologies. This thesis presents the design, simulation, and experimental validation of two antennas specifically developed for integration into repeater-assisted MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) systems. These systems aim to enhance spatial multiplexing and

Hur påverkas förtroendet för Försäkringskassan och socialförsäkringarna av massmediernas rapportering? Forskarna Christina Halling och Björn Johnson vid Malmö Högskola har studerat mediebilden av Försäkringskassan under perioden 2003–2012.Studien visar att medierapporteringen om Försäkringskassan är omfattande och att den ökar i samband med viktiga förändringar på socialförsäkringsområdet.

Sedan tidigt nittiotal har Bengt Svensson varit en högaktiv forskare i socialt arbete. Hans avhandling Pundare, jonkare och andra: Med narkotikan som följeslagare är en modern klassiker inom den etnografiska missbruksforskningen. Respektfullt och med stor noggrannhet förmedlar han en förståelse för en grupp människor som av många bara ses som ”knarkare” eller samhällsproblem. Bengt Svenssons forsk

Endast i yttersta undantagsfall bör patienter i underhållsbehandling för opiatberoende kunna uteslutas. Det anser artikelförfattarna, som uppmanar Socialstyrelsen att ändra dagens regler.
