The Long-Term Impacts of Low-Achieving Childhood Peers: Evidence from Project STAR

This paper evaluates how sharing a kindergarten classroom with low-achieving repeaters affects the long-term educational performance of regular first-time kindergarten students. Exploiting random assignment of teachers and students to classes in Project STAR, I document three sets of causal impacts: students who are exposed to repeaters (1) score lower on standardized tests at the end of kindergar

Significant Networks for Educational Development

We are interested in elaborating how university teachers create and maintain their understanding of teaching and learning. To this respect the social context in which they act out their understanding seems to be important. In the literature there are examples of how stable teaching cultures appear, [1]- [3]. Some authors even label university teachers as conservative [4]. The issue here is not whe

EU-skatterätt

Skatterätten har i mycket hög utsträckning påverkats av Sveriges medlemsskap i EU. I boken beskrivs och analyseras den EU-skatterättsliga regleringen på såväl den indirekta som den direkta beskattningens område. Vidare sätts EU-reglerna på ett tydligt sätt in i ett svenskt sammanhang. Både den svenska implementeringen av utfärdade direktiv och den svenska skatterättens förhållande till fördragets

On the use of light for the characterization and treatment of malignant tumours

Popular Abstract in Swedish Olika former av ljus har använts i åtminstone 5000 år i medicinska sammanhang. Man har i många tidiga kulturer använt solljus för att behandla olika sjukdomar. Under det senaste århundradet har användandet av ljus introducerats i den västerländska medicinen. Nya former av ljusterapi har införts. Med utvecklingen av lasern på 1960-talet dök nya användningsområden upp. LaSome aspects on the use of light for tissue characterization and treatment of malignant tumours are discussed within this thesis. The work presented aims at improving optical techniques for tissue characterization, especially to detect malignant and pre-malignant lesions. A knowledge on the interaction between light and tissue is of utmost importance to understand and improve the various technique

A DT-CNN Data-Flow Implementation

Digital implementations of Cellular Neural Networks are studied in terms of their communication requirements. Secure and reliable communication seems to imply close control, which degrades performance. We introduce a mechanism that removes the need for explicit local network control, taking the internal network communication out of the performance equation. This allows handling boundary conditions
