Denna studie bygger på intervjuer med lärare och undersöker hur lärarna arbetar med integrering av elever med annan etnisk bakgrund och socioekonomiskt svag bakgrund. Studien eftersöker lärarnas kopplingar mellan elevers etniska bakgrund, socioekonomiska bakgrund och skolresultat samt analyserar hur lärarnas arbetsmetoder, uppfattningar och tankar skiljer sig åt baserat på var skolan de är verksamma på är belägen utifrån en socioekonomisk områdesindelning. Resultatet visar på att enligt lärarna har skolorna inte några skrivna riktlinjer för integreringsarbete och integreringsarbeten genomförs

After decades of initiatives aimed at addressing inequitable rates of participation in higher education, people from low socio-economic backgrounds remain under-represented. A growing body of work suggests that family attitudes are the dominant influence on young people’s academic success and aspirations for higher education. This research asks whether it is possible to intervene in the construction of young people’s aspirations. Specifically, it evaluates the impact of an intervention program on young people’s knowledge of, beliefs about and aspirations for higher education. Drawing on theor

Abstract:

The literature shows that family background only partially accounts for the association between minority status and educational outcomes. In particular, when compared to same-background native peers, the children of foreign-born parents and especially those from lower backgrounds often display higher educational ambitions, even in spite of low school performances. My first step is to analyse the occurrence of these phenomena using different datasets from national and international European surveys. A currently under-explored path of research identifies the main reason behind these paradoxes

Duong, Phuoc Tra My <1991&gt. "WHAT MAKES OPPO SUCCEED IN THE VIETNAM MARKET? Background of the study Vietnam has become an emerging country and attractive retail market in the globe (Deloitte, 2014). Modern retail platform was introduced and have been blooming in Vietnam such as convenience stores, special stores and shopping centers (Trinh & Tran, 2014). The country is in the progress of transforming into digital economy, evidenced through high growth in electronic commerce and customer interaction through social network, etc. (Cameron et al., 2019). According to the Statista (2020), number of smartphone users in Vietnam was nearly 36 million in the end of 2019 and it is expected at 43 million by 2022. The growth in smartphone market was captured at 84% in 2017 and 95% of people in the cities have owned smartphone while the percentage of people with smartphone usage in rural area is reached up 68% (Nielsen, 2019). One of the attractive points in smartphone market is high population based with more than 94 million people (General Statistics Office, 2020). Vietnamese people spent more time reading news, playing games and conducting social interactions through social media network (Appota, 2018). These factors promote the entry of giant smartphone and electronic manufacturers such as Samsung and LG. Samsung has penetrated Vietnam for a long time and the Korean manufacturers established some factories in the country to enjoy lower tax rate and attractive labor cost (Sturgeon & Zylberberg, 2016)."

Abstract:

The steady decline of students’ competency in mathematics has become known as the “Mathematics Problem”. Researchers identified that the level of student engagement is one of the most important factors affecting the academic performance of mathematics students. Strong link between students’ attitudes towards the use of technology for learning mathematics and their achievements also has been identified by recent studies. The mathematical problems have a multidimensional source and are initiated from the students’ personal characteristics and attitudes. Thus attitude is important educational con

Abstract:

There is an increasingly present reality in the lives of consumers. The possibility of making purchases at home is much more favorable in relation to the need to move to do it. Thus, this reality is an issue that should be studied. In this way it is easy to claim that Consumer Engagement and Behavioral Intention are attractive factors when talking about a Virtual Store. With the lack of empirical studies on the relationship between the two constructs and other possible ones, this dissertation analyzes the concepts of Consumer engagement and Behavioral intention in the Virtual Store.

Abstract:

We use administrative data on education and the labour market to characterise the distribution of socioeconomic based achievement gaps in mainland Portugal. First, we evaluate the students’ probability of achieving a passing score, a good score or a very good score conditional on where they live and on their socioeconomic background, measured by a socioeconomic index. Second, we describe several spatial patterns in SE based achievement gaps. Third, we explore factors associated with the regional disparities in SE based achievement gaps.

Abstract:

The growth of tech-startups such as Airbnb and Uber into multibillion-dollar companies has a strong impact on the economy. Yet, 50% of startups close the business within 5 years, which makes it crucial to have support organizations, such as accelerators, to mitigate these failure rates. Accelerators help new ventures with a pre-defined business support. Nonetheless, this business support will be absorbed and implemented at different speeds since founding team members usually have different areas of expertise. Thus, we aim at uncovering the benefits of acceleration programs, what drives those b
