Under mina fem år av pedagogiska studier på Malmö Musikhögskola, och med ett stort egenintresse i ämnet har jag observerat en trend där mätbara värden alltmer eftersöks i skolans värld. I den trenden har jag sett en fara i att låta den enkelhet samt ensidighet som mätbara faktorer ofta genomsyras utav låta påverka musikundervisningen på gymnasiet i alltför stor utsträckning. Att försöka säkra kvalDuring my five years of educational studies at Malmö Academy of Music, and with a great personal interest in the subject, I have observed a trend where measureable factors are increasingly sought after within the educational school system. Within that trend I have noticed a risk in letting the simplicity and bias, that so often permeates measurable factors, influence musical education to a large e

En Dold Markovmodell (HMM) kan användas för modellera tidsserier på ett sätt som beskriver olika beteenden under olika perioder; till exempel kan den beskriva finansiella tidsseriers benägenhet att plötsligt ändra riktning då marknadssentimentet förändras, exempelvis på grund av en pandemi. Givet en tidsserie, tänker man sig att den antar olika tillstånd som ej går att observera men som reflekteraThe Hidden Markov model is applicable to a wide variety of fields. Applied to financial time series, its assumed underlying state sequence can reflect the time series' tendency to behave differently over different periods of time. In many situations, models could be improved by including exogenous data. However, that may in some cases be inappropriate in practice as the model could get too mat

Det finns idag en ökad förståelse för medarbetarnas kommunikativa roll i organisationer, vilket kan förstås genom begreppet ambassadörskap. Samtidigt som organisationen vill uppmuntra sina anställda att agera som ambassadörer på sociala medier, vill man också kontrollera medarbetarnas röst för att säkra ett enhetligt budskap. Detta utgör således en spänning mellan kontroll och frihet av medarbetarToday there is an increased understanding of employees' communicative role in organizations, which can be understood through the concept of ambassadorship. While organizations want to encourage employees to act as ambassadors on social media, they also want to control employee voice to secure a consistent message. Therefore, there is a tension between control and freedom of the employees'

Globally, the production and consumption of plastic has increased exponentially. As plastic items are produced using fossil fuels, the plastic industry is intrinsically tied to the petrochemical industry. One unique case of this dilemma lies in the petrochemical industry’s role in plastic production in Taiwan. Despite its reputation for recycling, Taiwan is satiated with ineffective sustainability

The findings suggest that increasing fertility reduc

This paper uses the variance within municipalities, i.e., fixed effects. The results show that an increase of the r
