  • Partner Search from Roskilde Municipality
    Partner search from Roskilde Municipality (Preliminary) Title of the Digital lower secondary schools explore new ways of learning project Outline of the project idea The Municipality of Roskilde has the ambition to develop new learning methods with digital devices and platforms. Mobile technologies, cloud-based free tools, and readily available resources and networks are all potentials in today’s knowledge society. These can contribute to the development of new skills for children, in the same way that ICT can support inclusive learning environments to integrate pupils of different social and cultural backgrounds or different sexes. A gap, however, exists between what is possible and what is acceptable and prevalent in lower secondary school as well as in teacher training. This is especially noticeable when it comes to the new kinds of net-based collaborative authorships, methods of publication, and knowledge sharing communities. The lower secondary schools are experiencing problems with the use of other people’s materials on the internet, and with the ability of pupils/students to evaluate information. Simultaneously, the teachers in general are lacking evaluation tools to match the new ways in which knowledge is gained. The project will develop: • Principles for pedagogical design to manage the potentials and challenges when pupils and students are seeking information, gathering materials, sharing knowledge, and collaborating while using readily available digital resources, tools, and environments on the internet. • Principles for digitally supported inclusive teaching methods to integrate pupils of different social and cultural backgrounds. • A model of school development for the pedagogical integration of ICT in various subjects. Roskilde Municipality is especially interested in digitalization in the subjects mathematics, english and german language.

  • Organic Foods in Danish Municipal School Food Systems – a Multistakeholder Analysis of Available Evidence on Constraints and Perspectives
    Organic foods in Danish municipal school food systems – a multistakeholder analysis of available evidence on constraints and perspectives Bent Egberg Mikkelsen & Tenna Doktor Olsen Abstract Previous studies have shown that organic supply and healthy eating initiatives in school food services share common features. Both types involves changes in supply, the collaboration of a number of different stakeholders and both include a physical food part as well as a non physical symbolic aspect. Studies have shown that introducing organic food in public food systems seems to affect the nutritional profile of the food service and anecdotal evidence suggest that organic supply forces food services to rethink menus leading to healthier menus and that introduction of organic foods often leads to adoption of a food & nutrition policy. The explanation might be that simply developing “food strategy” leads to a raise of awareness in school food services in such a way that both organic food and healthy eating tends to favor and that the notion of organic food and health eating in the minds of the decision makers is perceived as two sides of the same coin. Thus organic food supply and healthier food service seems to thrive in a symbiotic association and it appears that organic food seems to possess a “health improvement” potential that fits well with the prevailing ambitions that exists in many countries of making school settings for healthier eating initiatives. This paper studies the case of Danish school food service. Food service in Denmark follow the same trajectory as in many other countries where school food services increasingly are being implemented on a self service voluntary market based basis.

  • Danish Municipalities and Their Usage of Social Media Technologies a Multiple Case Study Regarding Social Fraud
    DANISH MUNICIPALITIES AND THEIR USAGE OF SOCIAL MEDIA TECHNOLOGIES A MULTIPLE CASE STUDY REGARDING SOCIAL FRAUD MASTER THESIS AUTHOR SUPERVISOR CHRIS MUNK Helle Zinner Henriksen CAND.MERC.IT (E-BUSINESS), SEPTEMBER 15th 2017 Copenhagen Business School, Department of IT Management CHARACTERS COUNT 119.216 PAGES (61) 73 ABSTRACT PURPOSE: The purpose of this thesis is to conduct research on how social media are used by the Danish municipalities as a tool in cases of social fraud. As this is a highly debated area in Denmark, which affects most of the Danish population, this subject is considered extremely interesting to research. AIM: The aim of this thesis is that the study should explore and illuminate the complexities of how the Danish municipalities use social media. The focus will be on the case handling of citizens who try to receive social benefits that are not justified. In addition, the goal is to find out the legislation in this area. One thing is what the media and the municipalities say are being done, but how is the legislation and the guidelines in this area. DESIGN: This thesis is written after an interpretivism philosophy as well as an inductive approach. A literature review has been created that brings together the existing relevant literature on the subject, the use of social media as a tool to examine social fraud in the Danish municipalities. Thus, it has created a framework as well as theoretical tool, which is used later to discuss the collected empirical data. This thesis acquires a mono method qualitative methodological approach, as the primary data is collected through one semi-structured interview with four different municipalities.
