Ladugårdsmarken är en skola med hög energianvändning och det är främst elanvändningen som bidrar till de höga siffrorna. Eftersom byggnaden renoverades 1991 borde inte energianvändningen vara så hög som den är. Energiförlusterna beror till största delen på bristande isolering i byggnadens omslutande delar, dåligt U-värde på fönster och ett felaktigt konstruerat golvvärmesystem. Att belysningen ofta är tänd och saknar någon form av styrning samt att datorerna ofta står på stand-by bidrar också till den höga elanvändningen. Även ventilationens styrning skulle kunna anpassas bättre till verksamheten för att minska energiåtgången..

This essay is about the origin, planning and establishment of the European Space Research Organisation's (ESRO) sounding rocket base Esrange outside Kiruna in Northern Sweden. Three main questions are examined. First I show there were not just scientific and technical but also political, economical as well as military reasons to build a European rocket base. Second, I scrutinize the reasons to choose Northern Sweden as the location for the rocket base. As it turns out, the main reasons were the favourable location of Northern Sweden within the aurora oval zone, the proximity of the Kiruna Geophysical Observatory, and the possibility to use a large, although not quite uninhabited, area where the launched rockets could crash.

The aim of this study is to fill the gap in mathematics education research concerning the relationship between identity and positioning in mathematical collaboration in groups. This study elaborates on the relationship between how pupils see themselves as math students in sixth grade, how they show their identities as math students, in contrast to how they position themselves reflexively in group collaboration while engaging in mathematical problem solving. The theoretical concepts linked to this study are discourse, identity and positioning. Discourse is used to describe and form the setting and context of the study. Identity is seen as a transient and elusive concept formed by the students own perceptions of self through narratives.
