  This paper reports the presentation and discussion during the Cybersecurity of Critical Infrastructures workshop organized as a part of the 18 th IFIP Summer School on Privacy and Identity Management. Furthermore, this paper also pointed to several promising future research directions. This workshop was primarily aimed at empowering PhD candidates, MSc students, and early-career researchers with insights into Critical Infrastructure (CI) security. The workshop provided participants with guidance on navigating the intricacies of safeguarding CIs, such as those in the energy and oil and gas sectors. It encompasses various aspects, from familiarizing participants with cybersecurity standards and frameworks to understanding tools and approaches that adversaries might leverage to target a system. Additionally, it also addresses how to mitigate socio-legal implications and security issues, particularly in relation to human factors. This initiative embraced a holistic approach to cybersecurity education, covering vital components like rigorous risk management, comprehensive cybersecurity training and awareness programs. This in turn would equip participants with some essential knowledge and skills to fortify critical operations against the ever-evolving cyber threat landscape.

  We present a system for estimating the friction of the pavement surface at any curved road section, by arriving at a consensus estimate, based on data from vehicles that have recently passed through that section. This estimate can help following vehicles. To keep costs down, we depend only on standard automotive sensors, such as the IMU, and sensors for the steering angle and wheel speeds. Our system’s workflow consists of: (i) processing measurements from vehicular sensors, (ii) transmitting short kinematic summaries from vehicles to a road side unit (RSU), using V2X communication, and (iii) estimating the friction coefficients, by running a machine learning regressor at the RSU, on summaries from individual vehicles, and then combining several such estimates.We study two key questions: (i) should each individual road section have a local friction coefficient regressor, or can we use a global regressor that covers all the possible road sections? and (ii) how accurate are the resulting regressor estimates? We test the performance of design variations of our system, using simulations of normal driving scenarios at curved road sections, using the commercial package Dyna4. We consider a single vehicle type with varying levels of tyre wear, and a range of road friction coefficients. We find that: (a) only a marginal loss of accuracy is incurred in using a global regressor as compared to local regressors, (b) the consensus estimate at the RSU has a worst case error of about ten percent, if the combination is based on at least fifty recently passed vehicles, and (c) our regressors have root mean square (RMS) errors that are less than five percent. The RMS error rate of our system is half as that of a commercial friction estimation service [7].But when tested with data from extreme driving manoeuvres that were unseen in the training data, our regressor performs an order of magnitude worse than on data from normal driving runs on curved road sections. Still our regressor’s RMS errors on such test data are no worse than the state of the art Artificial Neural Network regressors [18], [30].

  Background: As social robots increasingly integrate into public spaces, comprehending their security implications becomes paramount. This study is conducted amidst the growing use of social robots in public spaces (SRPS), emphasising the necessity for tailored security standards for these unique robotic systems. Methods: In this systematic mapping study (SMS), we meticulously review and analyse existing literature from the Web of Science database, following guidelines by Petersen et al. We employ a structured approach to categorise and synthesise literature on SRPS security aspects, including physical safety, data privacy, cybersecurity, and legal/ethical considerations. Results: Our analysis reveals a significant gap in existing safety standards, originally designed for industrial robots, that need to be revised for SRPS. We propose a thematic framework consolidating essential security guidelines for SRPS, substantiated by evidence from a considerable percentage of the primary studies analysed. Conclusions: The study underscores the urgent need for comprehensive, bespoke security standards and frameworks for SRPS. These standards ensure that SRPS operate securely and ethically, respecting individual rights and public safety, while fostering seamless integration into diverse human-centric environments. This work is poised to enhance public trust and acceptance of these robots, offering significant value to developers, policymakers, and the general public.

  The use of social robots in public spaces is becoming increasingly popular due to their ability to provide personalized services to users. However, the convergence of different technologies and software applications has raised concerns regarding security requirements, standards, and regulations. Specifically, there are significant concerns about the evolving threat landscape for software applications in public settings, where social robots interact without supervision and are in direct contact with threat actors. During the development of social robots software, developers and practitioners need practical tools to continuously assess their products’ security profiles. This paper presents a preventive approach to the dynamic evolving security landscape of Social Robots in Public Spaces (SRPS) using design science research (DSR) methodology to develop a security framework. The study investigates security threats, vulnerabilities, and risks associated with SRPS software development and analyzes existing related frameworks to design a security framework for SRPS software developers. The research aims to provide insights into the security aspects of SRPS software application development processes and contribute to developing effective security frameworks to mitigate evolving risks and ensure secure operation and acceptance in public spaces.

  This article discusses the use of different representations of technology to expose, inform and engage participants taking part in co-creation activities. In our project, the participants co-create an activity to support the learning of cultural heritage. We build our research on the “design choices framework”, which provides a convenient structure for co-creation projects, but doesn’t address the role of technology in such projects. We discuss the benefits of adding a technology choice addressing how to enhance co-creation processes and improve the utility of the framework. By representing technology through, e.g., images, demos, and prototypes, appropriately in different stages of our co-creation project, we see a clear, positive impact.

  Visual Analytics (VA) is a multidisciplinary field that requires various skills including but not limited to data analytics, visualizations, and the corresponding domain knowledge. Recently, many studies proposed creating and using Domain-Specific Languages (DSLs) for VA in order to abstract complexities and assist designers in developing better VAs for different data domains. However, development methods and types of DSLs vary for different applications and objectives. In this study, we conducted a systematic literature review to overview DSL methods and their intended applications for VA systems. Moreover, the review outlines the benefits and limitations of each of these methods. The aim is to provide decision support for both the research and development communities to choose the most compatible approach for their application. We think the communication of this research delivers a broad figure of previous relevant research and assists with the transfer and adaptation of the results to other domains.

  The software industry has witnessed a growing interest in DevSecOps due to the premises of integrating security in the software development lifecycle. However, security compliance cannot be disregarded, given the importance of adherence to regulations, laws, industry standards, and frameworks. This study aims to provide an overview of compliance aspects in the context of DevSecOps and explore how compliance is ensured. Furthermore, this study reveals the trends of compliance according to the extant literature and identifies potential directions for further research in this context. Therefore, we carried out a systematic literature review on the integration of compliance aspects in DevSecOps, which rigorously followed the guidelines proposed by Kitchenham and Charters. We found 934 articles related to the topic by searching five bibliographic databases (163) and Google Scholar (771). Through a rigorous selection process, we selected 15 papers as primary studies. Then, we identified the compliance aspects of DevSecOps and grouped them into three main categories: compliance initiation, compliance management, and compliance technicalities. We observed a low number of studies; therefore, we encourage further efforts into the exploration of compliance aspects, their automated integration, and the development of metrics to evaluate such a process in the context of DevSecOps.

  Background: The popularity of DevSecOps is on the rise because it promises to integrate a greater degree of security into software delivery pipelines. However, there is also an unacceptable risk related to safety that cannot be overlooked, given the importance of this aspect in many industries. Objective: The objective of this study is to provide an overview of the safety aspects reported in the literature on DevSecOps. This study also characterizes such aspects and identifies the gaps that may lead to future research work. Method: A systematic literature review was conducted using five well-known academic databases. The search was executed in September 2021 and March 2022 to identify relevant studies. Results: The search returned 114 academic studies. After the screening process, five primary studies published between 2019 and 2021 were selected. These studies were analyzed thoroughly to identify the safety aspects. Then, we categorized them into three main groups: (i) risk-related safety aspects, (ii) human-related aspects, and (iii) management aspects. Conclusion: Safety is an important characteristic that is becoming more critical as the number of critical systems grows. This review reveals that only a scarce number of studies are focusing on safety in DevSecOps. However, those studies gave us some insights into this topic. Therefore, our main observation is that this topic has not yet been completely explored in the academic literature. This review can encourage reflection and discussion between the safety and security communities.

  The concept of Digital Twins is still in an infant state of development. Digital Twins are often built as a tool to aid in better understanding of physical systems through simulation. They can be used to visualize information during operations and provide instructions during training or execution of procedures. The use of Digital Twins to test is appealing as it can be done quickly and safely. However, testing without inclusion of the physical system can lead to a reality gap. The reality gap can lead to high risks when applying concepts tested on digital Twins to the physical system directly. Sometimes interaction with the physical system is unfeasible. In this paper, we present an experimental laboratory that we built to provide a platform for the development of high quality Digital Twins through a feedback loop. The physical system is a Palfinger crane. Our replicate physical twin is a Universal collaborative industrial robot model UR16e due to its similar anatomy to the crane. The RoboDK simulation software was used to rapidly develop a digital twin of the UR16e. We demonstrate a solution to the interoperability problem in digital Twins using the monitoring adaptation loop from the Autonomic Adaptation System of the Arrowhead Framework.

  Supply chain activities generate massive amount of data by several actors such as, suppliers, manufacturers, warehouses, distributers, and wholesalers. Visual analytics (VA) plays a key role in knowledge discovery and insight generation from this data and helps various players to enhance their operational and strategic decision making. This is more essential for Fast moving consumer goods (FMCG) industry, given the size of the industry and its sensitivity to the diverse market uncertainties. In this paper, we present a PhD research plan that responds to the requirements of a FMCG supply chain VA system by means of a comprehensive framework. In this regard, the information flow throughout the supply chain is a significant factor for developing a reliable and efficient VA solution and a proper information flow throughout the supply chain can be enhanced with the help of the framework consisting of modules including Data Generation, Data Integration and Management, Data Analytics, Data Visualization, and Data-driven decision making. The aim of the study is to explore the development of a VA framework that acts as a guideline for supply chain players to improve their analytical capabilities.

  Over the last 3 decades, researchers have attempted to shed light into the requirements traceability problem by introducing tracing tools, techniques, and methods with the vision of achieving ubiquitous traceability. Despite the technological advances, requirements traceability remains problematic for researchers and practitioners. This study aims to identify and investigate the main challenges in implementing (semi-)automated requirements traceability, as reported in the recent literature. A systematic literature review was carried out based on the guidelines for systematic literature reviews in software engineering, proposed by Kitchenham. We retrieved 4530 studies by searching five major bibliographic databases and selected 70 primary studies. These studies were analysed and classified according to the challenges they present and/or address. Twenty-one challenges were identified and were classified into five categories. Findings reveal that the most frequent challenges are technological challenges, in particular, low accuracy of traceability recovery methods. Findings also suggest that future research efforts should be devoted to the human facet of tracing, to explore traceability practices in organisational settings, and to develop traceability approaches that support agile and DevOps practices. Finally, it is recommended that researchers leverage blockchain technology as a suitable technical solution to ensure the trustworthiness of traceability information in interorganisational software projects.

  Social robots are increasingly penetrating our daily lives. They are used in various domains, such as healthcare, education, business, industry, and culture. However, introducing this technology for use in conventional environments is not trivial. For users to accept social robots, a positive user experience is vital, and it should be considered as a critical part of the robots’ development process. This may potentially lead to excessive use of social robots and strengthen their diffusion in society. The goal of this study is to summarize the extant literature that is focused on user experience in social robots, and to identify the challenges and benefits of UX evaluation in social robots. To achieve this goal, the authors carried out a systematic literature review that relies on PRISMA guidelines. Our findings revealed that the most common methods to evaluate UX in social robots are questionnaires and interviews. UX evaluations were found out to be beneficial in providing early feedback and consequently in handling errors at an early stage. However, despite the importance of UX in social robots, robot developers often neglect to set UX goals due to lack of knowledge or lack of time. This study emphasizes the need for robot developers to acquire the required theoretical and practical knowledge on how to perform a successful UX evaluation.

  Technological advances and the evolution of mobile technologies enable patients to meet their doctors through their smartphones. While offering the opportunity of digital visits to patients, there are also challenges for this development. The purpose of this study is to enhance the understanding of digital visits, as perceived by experts working in telemedicine companies. To serve this purpose, the authors conducted semi-structured interviews with managers and employees in eight telemedicine companies. The analysis of the empirical data confirmed the importance of digital visits and their efficiency. The potential of digital visits is expected to increase significantly, should they make use of remote devices to transfer real-time data from patients to physicians. In such a case, digital visits are expected to cover approximately 70-75% of medical cases. However, the use of remote devices must be taken with caution and specific conditions need to be taken into account. We encourage researchers to perform research on promising technologies such as artificial intelligence and remote diagnostic devices, which could make more diagnoses and conditions possible to be treated by digital visits. This is even more important in light of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.

  The inability to effectively and systematically identify and measure the damage in bridges will lead to an acceleration and dangerous deterioration of the health state of these structures. To repair and replace the aging and damaged bridge infrastructures, and prevent catastrophic bridge collapse, there is an urgent need to develop reliable, innovative, and efficient approaches to the performance assessment and inspection of bridges. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), also knowns as drone, technology has found its way into a number of civilian applications including inspection in the last 20 years, predominantly due to lower cost and tangible scientific improvements. The intent of this paper is to map the current state-of-the-art drone-enabled bridge inspection practices and investigated their associated hazards and risks. This paper will integrate scenario prediction and, assess hazards as well as the social and environmental loss in the case of drone-enabled bridge inspection. Further, this paper will follow rather closely a three-phase process: hazard identification, hazard analysis, and hazard evaluation, all executed with qualitative data and methods by experts of a variety of fields, methodologies for recognition of the impact of cold operating environment on the performance of drone and drone -pilots, creative interpretation of the hazard factors of identifiable problems. The proposed Preliminary Hazard Analysis (PHA) is exemplified via drone-enabled inspection of Håkenby bridge, which is located in the Viken county, in the eastern part of Norway.

  In nursing, bioscience is regarded as one of the cornerstones of nursing practice. However, bioscience disciplines as anatomy, physiology and biochemistry are considered challenging for students and the failure rate is high. In this study we explore a blended learning teaching strategy in an anatomy, physiology and biochemistry course for first year Bachelor nursing students. In the blended learning teaching strategy, short narrated online digital resources of bioscientific terms and concepts were integrated into the teaching design along with digital metacognitive evaluations of learning outcomes. Results show that compared to students receiving traditional face-to-face teaching, the students with a blended learning approach performed better on their national exam with a small to medium effect size (Cohen’s d=0.23). Student course evaluations supported the blended learning delivery with small to medium effect sizes. The students reported that the digital resources supported their learning outcome achievement, that they better understood the teacher’s expectations and that they were more satisfied with their virtual learning environment. This study adds to the growing literature of blended learning effectiveness in higher education, and suggests the use of digital resources as an enrichment of teaching and enhancement of students’ study experience.

  The novel, yet disruptive blockchain technology has witnessed growing attention, due to its intrinsic potential. Besides the conventional domains that benefit from such potential, such as finance, supply chain and healthcare, blockchain use cases in software engineering have emerged recently. In this study, we aim to contribute to the body of knowledge of blockchain-oriented software engineering by providing an adequate overview of the software engineering applications enabled by blockchain technology. To do so, we carried out a systematic mapping study and identified 22 primary studies. Then, we extracted data within the research type, research topic and contribution type facets. Findings suggest an increasing trend of studies since 2018. Additionally, findings reveal the potential of using blockchain technologies as an alternative to centralized systems, such as GitHub, Travis CI, and cloud-based package managers, and also to establish trust between parties in collaborative software development. We also found out that smart contracts can enable the automation of a variety of software engineering activities that usually require human reasoning, such as the acceptance phase, payments to software engineers, and compliance adherence. In spite of the fact that the field is not yet mature, we believe that this systematic mapping study provides a holistic overview that may benefit researchers interested in bringing blockchain to the software industry, and practitioners willing to understand how blockchain can transform the software development industry.

  Interactive outdoor light installations change how we experience places and invite people passing by to engage with them. In this project, we investigate how we can design such an interactive light prototype to enhance a recreational urban trail. We applied a user-centered design process to develop a solution that fits our users’ needs and demonstrate how the concept of northern lights can be used to create a more secure and inviting urban trail. Here, we present our design process and prototype to inspire future work in the field.

  This article presents a systematic literature on the use of information technology within the field of maritime shipping. First,the review scope, the search terms, the data sources, the search process, the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and the data extraction and analysis procedures are presented. The findings show that RFID is still reported to be in its infancy. Truck appointment system might only work in certain situations as truck drivers might not have a choice of when to pick up its container. There is no centralization of the operation. Creating a digital dashboard to display potential wait-time based on past days truck companies can better plan their day if they have the chance to do so. The benefits of such system are to offer real-time information to its users. Digitalization also allows for predictive analytics to take place this takes the process to another level.

  Social interactions between employees are beneficial for employees’ well-being and a company’s productivity. We are interested in how interactive technology can be designed to create a more enjoyable work environment and support social interactions at work. Using a four-step design process (research, ideate, prototype and test) and rapid prototyping, we created a prototype implementing elements of both ambient and tangible user interfaces to engage employees during coffee breaks. We created a concept of a magical pond to increase the ludic design and playfulness of the prototype. Glass crystals, ambient lighting and fairy wings cause an anticipated contrast to the normal work environment. Here, we present our design process and prototype to inspire future work in the field.

  In this paper we present the results of a feature importance analysis of a chemical sulphonation process. The task consists of predicting the neutralization number (NT), which is a metric that characterizes the product quality of active detergents. The prediction is based on a dataset of environmental measurements, sampled from an industrial chemical process. We used a soft-sensing approach, that is, predicting a variable of interest based on other process variables, instead of directly sensing the variable of interest. Reasons for doing so range from expensive sensory hardware to harsh environments, e.g., inside a chemical reactor. The aim of this study was to explore and detect which variables are the most relevant for predicting product quality, and to what degree of precision. We trained regression models based on linear regression, regression tree and random forest. A random forest model was used to rank the predictor variables by importance. Then, we trained the models in a forward-selection style by adding one feature at a time, starting with the most important one. Our results show that it is sufficient to use the top 3 important variables, out of the 8 variables, to achieve satisfactory prediction results. On the other hand, Random Forest obtained the best result when trained with all variables.

  Critical Infrastructures (CIs) are governed by Industrial Control Systems (ICSs). Modern ICSs do not operate in isolation anymore, but they are connected to the Internet. This transformation introduced numerous advantages, however, there are a few drawbacks as well. Integration with the Internet has left ICS exposed to potential cyber-attacks. Additionally, ICSs could also encounter technical failures during operation. Consequently, it is crucial to distinguish between attacks and technical failures to initiate an appropriate response. There is a deficiency of robust technology to assist operators in distinguishing attacks and technical failures in an ICS environment. However, a framework is proposed to construct Bayesian Network (BN) models that would help to distinguish between attacks and technical failures for different observable problems in our previous work. There are tools available to implement such BN models, but these tools are not appropriate to use in an ICS environment. In order to address this limitation, this paper develops and demonstrates a prototype tool for swift identification of the major cause (Intentional Attack/Accidental Technical Failure) in case of an abnormal behaviour in a component of ICS. The proposed tool enables BN models to automatically update prior probabilities based on the historical data and/or expert knowledge corresponding to the application. The developed tool can be further evaluated and used to distinguish between attacks and technical failures during operation in CIs where ICSs are employed.

  This paper presents a PhD research plan that focuses on solving existing problems in requirements engineering, by means of a novel blockchain-enabled framework. Requirements engineering in general and requirements traceability in particular are characterized by a variety of distributed stakeholders and heterogeneity of tools. These characteristics introduce integration, communication, coordination and trust issues and impede the accurate and trustworthy traceability of requirements. Thereby, this paper proposes blockchain technology for the trustworthy management and traceability of requirements throughout the software development life cycle.

  This paper explores whether shopping tourism in the context of cross-border regions may trigger more viable, and long-term, tourism despite persistent border asymmetries (e.g., price and tax differences) which are typically key to luring tourists to short-term shopping visits. While tourism development is often an explicit goal of cross-border policy initiatives, this paper is devoted to the market-driven processes that might drive tourism beyond short-term shopping in borderlands. Based upon a case study from the Norwegian-Swedish border region of Østfold-Fyrbodal, it finds that asymmetric cross-border shopping tourism supports the development of a diversified tourism sector with a variety of tourist attractions and services organised around shopping, longer overnight stays and second-home tourism. Despite persistent border asymmetries, market processes may balance off the short-term shopping visits towards supporting long-term tourism, which provides economic value to the cross-border region.

  Recent developments in human–computer interaction technologies raised the attention towards gamification techniques, that can be defined as using game elements in a non-gaming context. Furthermore, advancement in machine learning (ML) methods and its potential to enhance other technologies, resulted in the inception of a new era where ML and gamification are combined. This new direction thrilled us to conduct a systematic literature review in order to investigate the current literature in the field, to explore the convergence of these two technologies, highlighting their influence on one another, and the reported benefits and challenges. The results of the study reflect the various usage of this confluence, mainly in, learning and educational activities, personalizing gamification to the users, behavioral change efforts, adapting the gamification context and optimizing the gamification tasks. Adding to that, data collection for machine learning by gamification technology and teaching machine learning with the help of gamification were identified. Finally, we point out their benefits and challenges towards streamlining future research endeavors.

  Despite the long tradition on the study of human values, the impact of this field in the software engineering domain is rarely studied. To these regards, this study focuses on applying human values to agile software development process, more specifically to scrum roles. Thus, the goal of the study is to explore possible associations between human values and scrum roles preferences among students. Questionnaires are designed by employing the Short Schwartz's Value Survey and are distributed among 57 students. The results of the quantitative analysis process consisting of descriptive statistics, linear regression models and Pearson correlation coefficients, revealed that values such as power and self-direction influence the preference for the product owner role, the value of hedonism influences the preference for scrum masters and self-direction is associated with team members' preference.

  University classes may be demanding and tiring. The lunch/coffee breaks are the opportunities to reload energies for the next hour by interacting with other students and have fun together. Technology can help in enhancing this positive experience. Thus, we used the Interaction Design process to study the needs for a digital solution, which can enhance a ludic experience during lunch breaks in schools and developed an interactive prototype. Through interviews and observations, we explored what students considered ludic during breaks. Socializing in common areas and being involved in activities that require collaborative engagement, was highlighted. We used the assumptions of ludic design discussed by Gaver et al. [1] for designing our prototype, an Interactive Coffee Table, called Willy’s Pond. The solution consists of a tabletop transformed into a digital pond for Willy, the fish, to swim around. The prototype was tested in a natural setting with approximately 25 students in groups and individually. We found that the Interactive Coffee table enhances the ludic experience. Moreover, a relevant finding was that collaborative engagement was seen as a critical element for ludic design in addition to Gaver et al. [1] assumptions for designing for a ludic experience.

  In this paper, we present a design study of people’s mourning experience after the loss of a loved one. We took a design thinking approach for studying people’s needs and further designing and prototyping a digital solution. MEMO, a wooden box designated to keep both physical and digital objects from the deceased, was developed. The digital memories are presented in an organized way in a touchscreen monitor installed in the frontal part of the box. Moreover, MEMO supports sharing the digital memories with other boxes being a part of the same family package of boxes. Finally, MEMO gives the possibility to attach digital content to physical objects through NFC tags and display its digital content in the touch screen just by laying the objects on top of the box lid. We contribute to HCI with our prototype and a better understanding of people’s needs during grief. Our aim is to continue exploring other design alternatives for facilitating grief for the bereaved.

The journal of business & industrial marketing. ISSN 0885-8624. 36(11), s. 2074–2085. doi: 10.1108/JBIM-05-2019-0198. Vis sammendrag

  Purpose: This paper discusses business incubation to enter foreign markets in BRIC countries through the lens of an “international business incubator” (IBI). International market expansion offers huge opportunities for companies to increase their revenue, but there are also challenging tasks such as the establishment of a business company and the occupation of a strategic position abroad. Practitioners consider this process as the act of incubation, but the theoretical discussion lags behind the practice-led debate. To date, no theoretical foundation for an IBI exists beyond entry-mode decisions. Design/methodology/approach: An illustrative, and theory-led, case study is presented that describes market expansion to BRIC countries through the lens of a network-based IBI. The empirical case is an illustrative Danish company with international operations in BRIC countries both with and without an IBI. Findings: International business incubation represents a process which can be influenced through an IBI, and business networking during foreign market entry is shaped by IBI brokerage (bridging, bonding and protecting) in different phases. IBI activities that are embedded in business networking support a company’s endeavours in getting a foothold and acquiring a strategic position in, and penetrating, BRIC markets. Research implications: The IBI’s activities to enter foreign markets should be thoroughly managed. Further studies should be conducted with a cross-case comparison and larger samples to test the propositions established based upon the illustrative case study. Originality/value: By linking business networking theory with the practice-led idea of business incubation, the study explores an under-conceptualised topic for international business and entrepreneurship scholars. As key contribution, this paper offers an initial understanding of how brokerage interacts with incubation during the entry of new markets.

  We argue that the present challenges in the linguistic integration of adult immigrants in the Nordic societies require radically new thinking about language and learning. The remedy to the current poor linguistic integration of adult immigrants is not found in organising more integration courses or in tweaking the classroom practices. Rather, we propose that the Nordic countries should join forces in developing a Nordic model for adult immigrants’ linguistic support based on ideas of language companionship and language mentoring on the job. Such a model would be one important step towards making the Nordic Region more socially sustainable.

Vis sammendrag

  In the past 12 years, more than 50 FutureBuilt pilot projects have shown that it is possible to reduce greenhouse gas emission from transport, energy and materials for the built environment. The FutureBuilt programme supports climate friendly urban development in Norway’s capitol city Oslo and surrounding municipalities (Bærum, Asker, Drammen, Nordre Follo and Lillestrøm). All projects have until now been required to perform carbon footprint calculations and to reduce emissions by 50% compared to a reference common practice. Followng the political ambitions to further reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the FutureBuilt criteria has been updated to reflect these, with the development of a scheme called FutureBuilt ZERO. The FutureBuilt ZERO method is based on the Norwegian standard for carbon footprint calculations of buildings (NS 3720), but has taken a more forward looking approach. The method is taking into account expected future developments in society related to carbon footprint aspects that has often been left out in common carbon footprint practice. It includes contributions to greenhouse gas emission of direct and indirect emissions from operational energy, manufacturing, and transport of materials, related to building construction, operation, maintenance and end-of-life. In common carbon footprint of buildings, scenarios for maintenance and end-of-life of buildings are often assessed based on current practice. However, in the FutureBuilt ZERO method, the changes in technology and policy have been taking into account for adjusting emission factors. Other aspects that are often left out in common practice such as biogenic carbon, time-dependent characterisation factors, carbonatization of concrete, design for reuse and exported energy, are also included. The process to take into account such aspects requires input from several experts and the presentation will bring forward some of the aspects that has been deliberated in the making of the method.

  Subtitle: Perspectives from Professional Diversity Competency, Professional Research & Development Competency, and Professional Digital Competency. The qualifications and competencies that teachers need, and that must be developed through initial teacher education, are ever evolving. The future-ready teachers need to exercise agency and develop their transformative competencies. To succeed in a rapidly changing and digital society, skills such as deeper learning, analytic reasoning, complex problem solving, and teamwork are required (Binkley et al., 2012). Teachers’ professional competence can be defined as professional practice based on a knowledge base that enables the handling of complex issues related to learning and teaching (Smestad & Gillespie, 2020). This knowledge base is likely to include elements from a variety of areas, including practical experience. Research has highlighted how teachers’ professional competence build on a range of knowledge types, and Hargreaves & Fullan (2012) emphasise both an individual and a collective component. Hence, student teachers’ professional competencies can be expected to be developed in the interplay with peers and with teacher educators and school-based mentor teachers at the different learning arenas in teacher education, e.g., both at campus and at placement schools (Raaen & Thorsen, 2020). The constitution of professional competence is an integrated relation between theoretical, scientific and practical experience-based modes of knowledge (Grimen 2008; Nielsen & Lund, 2020). Hence, developing professional teacher competencies requires integrating different modes of knowledge, rather than engendering conflict between theory and practice. On-campus learning, which tends to emphasise theoretical knowledge – requires a cognitive understanding that includes analytical and critical reflection (Grimen, 2008). Learning in practice placements involves practical knowledge, which differs from theoretical knowledge by being developed and implemented by the learner themselves (Heggen, 2008; Gee, 2000). Moreover, student teachers will encounter different knowledge cultures, both on campus and at placement schools (Raaen & Thorsen, 2020). Such encultured knowledge, which establishes itself in social contexts, is collective, normative and tacit. On the other hand, laws and regulations – embedded knowledge – are operationalised in local institutional structures and procedures like curricula and lesson plans, assessment practices and teaching methods, thereby framing professional practice (Klette & Carlsten, 2012, p. 71). Increasingly, teacher education programmes stress transdisciplinary goals (Johannesen & Øgrim, 2020), learning outcomes that transcend subject boundaries and cannot be reduced to a sum of goals in discrete subjects. The aim of this symposium is to present new research examining three specific areas of teachers’ transdisciplinary professional competencies: professional diversity competency, research & development competency and professional digital competency. In a recent review (Smestad & Gillespie, 2020), tensions in relation to how to understand transdisciplinary professional competencies in general, and these three important areas specifically, are emphasised calling for more research. A focus on transdisciplinary competencies is crucial to develop a coherent teacher education program and the three identified areas oftransdisciplinary professional competencies are not just individually important but are also sufficiently different to contribute to a nuanced view of transdisciplinarity. The empirical data presented in this symposium includes perspectives from both student teachers, teacher educators and mentor teachers. The main data is from the Norwegian large scale and longitudinal project Teacher Qualifications for the 21st century (TEQ21), but perspectives from researchers from Denmark and Uganda are included as well.

• Øgrim, Leikny; Johannesen, Monica & Hatlevik, Ove Edvard (2021). The Role of the University and the Placement Schools in the Development of Student Teachers' Professional Digital Competence. Vis sammendrag

  In initial teacher education, the student teachers encounter different learning arenas, whereas the two formal ones are university campus and workplace (i.e. placement schools). Studies on the relation between learning in campus and placement schools, often describe students as receptive and passive in the campus-based learning context, as opposed to be more active and involved in the placement schools (Finne, Mordal & Stene, 2014). Although university campuses and workplaces are different contexts, students do not necessarily see this difference as a "gap" (Lohmander, 2015). Instead, they might see campus and placement schools as involving different modes of knowledge (Christensen, Eritsland & Havnes, 2014). Learning on campus is characterized by theoretical knowledge and requires analytical and critical reflection. On the other hand, workplace learning, for example carried out in placement schools, is characterized by practical knowledge which can be developed and implemented by the learner at the workplace (Gee, 2000). Raaen & Thorsen (2020) question the idea of a gap between theory and practice and advocate a form of coherence which requires cultural exchange between the learning arenas. This tension of understanding the different roles of learning, is to our knowledge, not discussed with regard to teacher students’ professional digital competence. There is little research on the role of practice placement in developing student teachers´ professional digital competence. An exception is Galanouli & McNair (2001) who conclude their research that schools must be supported and resourced properly and that placement teachers must be trained in the use of technology, for student teachers to improve their professional digital competence during practice placement. The same authors state that higher education institutions emphasize the development of the student teachers’ ability to reflect on the pedagogical use of technology in their teaching practice. For more than two decades, Norwegian teacher education institutions have integrated professional digital competence training into subject areas (Engen, Giæver& Mifsud, 2015; Johannesen & Øgrim 2020). In evaluations from training in university campuses and placements schools both, teacher educators and student teachers report that they do not have sufficient professional digital competence (Engen et al., 2009; Gudmundsdottir & Hatlevik, 2018). In this paper, we investigate the roles of learning arenas for the development of student teachers’ professional digital competence. As part of the picture, the concept of professional digital competence is used for analyzing the role of the learning arenas

  This paper is an outcome of an ongoing empirical study that seeks to establish the strategies to improve the continuous development of educators’ digital competence in teacher training institutions (TTIs) in Uganda. The study is motivated by the ever-growing interest in integrating digital technology in teacher training institutions across the world, which has created tension among educators, still contemplating on how best they can use the available digital tools in their teaching process (Lund & Aagaard, 2020; Säljö, 2010). It is assumed that digital technologies have a great potential for improving the quality of education (Toit, 2015) and indeed for years, several countries all over the world have embarked on the use of digital tools in the teaching process (UNESCO, 2015). However, an analysis of the curriculum for teacher education across educational contexts indicates that digital competence is integrated to a limited extent in the curriculum documents for teacher education programmes (Instefjord, 2014; Ministry of Education and Sports, 2006; European Commission, 2007). Thus, basing on a case study design, semi-structured face-to-face interviews and non-participant observations was employed to gather qualitative data from participants who included educators and administrators from selected TTIs in Uganda. The findings indicate that Uganda TTIs meets challenges similar to what has been identified in international research and ought to; develop and provide digital infrastructure, conduct in-service training on the pedagogical use of digital tools, develop subject-based ICT curriculum, improve access to digital tools (hardware, software and internet). Furthermore, Uganda TTIs ought to develop and implement ICT policies at institutional level and motivate teachers to use digital tools as well as advocate for attitudinal change towards the use of digital tools among educators. An appropriate adoption and implementation of these strategies by TTIs, as evidenced from the research findings, could guarantee acquisition and/or improvement of digital competence among educators that is relevant for pedagogical purposes in today’s technological-rich environments in Uganda as well as other parts of the world.

  There is a knowledge gap on the prevalence of Airbnb and its impact on tourism development in less developed tourist regions, so-called secondary tourist destinations. By exploring this gap, the present paper contributes with a two-step exploratory study: First, it analyses the regional case of Østfold, a Norwegian secondary tourist destination, which is, second, followed by a cross-country comparison. The paper specifically analyses the direction and strength of the relationship between traditional accommodation and Airbnb-based tourism, which is a hitherto understudied topic notably for less frequented tourist destinations. Keywords: Sharing economy, secondary tourist destinations, tourism development, regional economic development

  Francis Fukuyamas drøm om en grenseløs verden og evig demokrati på begynnelsen av 1990-tallet ble senere avløst av et mer dystert bilde med nye fysiske og mentale grenser. I desember 2019 publiserte forskningsgruppen ved Høgskolen i Østfold AreaS en bok om dette temaet, «Discussing Borders, Escaping Traps: Transdisciplinary and Transspatial Approaches.» På seminaret presenterer AreaS-forskere flere kapitler fra denne boken.

A Study of how Cooperation Affects Performance in Local Service Delivery. Universitetet i Agder. ISSN 978-82-8427-077-7. Fulltekst i vitenarkiv Vis sammendrag

  Inter-municipal cooperation (IMC) is one of the most widely-used organizational alternatives in local governments’ attempts to adapt to ever-increasing demands for high quality and cost-efficient services. Although IMC is widespread, studies of its effects are largely lacking. The existing studies show contradicting results, causing more and more scholars to ask what determines whether or not cooperation is successful. This study contributes to filling this gap by asking, when and how shared service delivery is beneficial. The study’s empirical work is constituted of four separate articles. Each article uses one specific service as an empirical case for analyzing the effects cooperation on one or two distinct dimensions of performance. Together, these studies provide an empirical ground for comparing and discussing how the effects of cooperation may depend on cooperation size and tasks characteristics.
