  1. 1. Exploring the STEM Gender Ratio

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen

    Author : Linda Schalling; [2022]
    Keywords : gender inequality; STEM; education; tertiary education; gender equality paradox; empowerment; women business and the law; Europe; MENA; Business and Economics;

    Abstract : Abstract: The gender-equality paradox is the phenomenon of finding more developed, egalitarian countries generally experience higher gender equality while, for example, having a relatively low share of female graduates from STEM fields in tertiary education. The presence of the paradox in several developed egalitarian countries indicates that the female share of STEM graduates must be influenced by other than gender inequality. READ MORE

  2. 2. Investigating the use of Semiconductor Nanowires for Neural Networks

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Alfredo Serafini; [2022]
    Keywords : FDTD method and simulation; optical broadcasting neural network; optical communication of nanowires; sub-wavelength absorption.; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In this work, we intend to employ nanowires for the realisation of an artificial neuron which can be used to design a neural network that will guide the new generation of non-von Neumann architectures such as Neuromorphic Computing. Possible applications are strongly related to Neuromorphic architectures and artificial intelligence, such as high-performance computers, robotics hardware and autonomous drones. READ MORE

  4. 4. How Do Students’ Mathematics Self-Efficacy, Mathematics Self-Concept and Mathematics Anxiety Influence Mathematical Literacy? — A Comparison between Shanghai-China and Sweden in PISA 2012

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för pedagogik och specialpedagogik

    Author : Yi Ding; [2016-07-05]
    Keywords : Mathematical literacy; Mathematics self-efficacy; Mathematics self-concept; Mathematics anxiety; ESCS; Shanghai-China; Sweden; Structural Equation Modelling; Parcelling; PISA;

    Abstract : Aim: The aim of this thesis is to examine the differences in the influence of student’s Mathematics self-efficacy, Mathematics self-concept and Mathematics anxiety on their mathematical literacy between Shanghai-China and Sweden, while taking students’ economic, social and cultural status (ESCS) into consideration. Theory: Social cognitive theory proposed by Bandura (2011) indicates self-efficacy is regarded as individuals’ conviction of their capability of solving issues and pursuing desirable achievement.
