7TH INTERNATIONAL CDIO CONFERENCE 2011 June 20-23, 2011 TECHNICAL University of DENMARK – Dtu CONFERENCE PROGRAM 7TH INTERNATIONAL CDIO CONFERENCE 2011 JUNE 20-23, 2011 TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY OF DENMARK – DTU CONFERENCE PROGRAM Overview of building 101 MessaGE from the chairPersons On behalf of the International Advisory Committee, the Technical Program Committee and the Local Organizing Committee, we welcome you to DTU – the Technical University of Denmark, and to the 7th International CDIO Conference. The conference provides a forum for CDIO collaborators and prospective members to exchange ideas and experiences, follow CDIO 16 developments and progress, and help refine and define the CDIO initiative, its standards and syllabus. 17 The conference takes place on DTU’s spacious and leafy campus in Lyngby, 12 km north of Copenhagen. Copenhagen is Denmark’s Entrance D Entrance E capital and largest city, with a population of over a million. It is also one of the world’s most environmentally friendly cities, with 36% of its citizens cycling to and from work – a combined distance of 1.2 million km daily! Copenhagen has no less than 10 Michelin-star restaurants (the most of any city in Scandinavia) and is home to the restaurant Noma, currently rated the best in the world. All extended abstracts have been reviewed by at least three members of the Technical Program Committee, and as in the two previous 15 13 conferences in Montréal (2010) and Singapore (2009) authors were given the option of having their full paper undergo a peer review process. Over 60 of the 155 accepted submissions have chosen to do so this year. As an additional feature of this year’s conference 11 5 selected papers will be forwarded for publication in special issues of the journals European Journal of Engineering Education (EJEE), Advances in Engineering Education (AEE) and International Journal of Quality Assurance in Engineering and Technology Education (IJQAETE). Accepted papers will be presented in one of three formats: 1) a traditional 20-minute oral presentation, 2) a teaser pre-session followed by a regular poster exhibition, or 3) a 60-minute freestyle session, where the author has free rein to run the session anyway she or he sees fit. We have given 8 contributions the chance for a freestyle session – so look forward to some exciting, interactive, “out of the box” experiences. We stress that all contributions have equal stature, regardless of the format of delivery. In addition, we 1 2 4 6 7 8 14 have showcased several demonstrations of CDIO projects. Finally, a variety of introductory and advanced workshops are on offer on Monday June 20, catering to both CDIO novices as well as experienced CDIO veterans. 3 We would like to recognize the many contributions required to organize a conference of this size: The authors who submitted work, 9 10 12 without which we could not have had a conference; the Technical Program Committee; the many reviewers that were needed to Entrance A Entrance B handle the volume of submissions we received; the International Advisory Committee for advice; the financial support of DTU, 18 IBM, Grundfos, Lego, Novozymes, Vestas and Velux; the Local Organizing Committee who attended to the myriad practical details of arranging a conference. Finally, we thank you, the conference participants and hope that you have a successful week “Building 1: S01 11: Glass Hall Educational Networks” with colleagues, students and other stakeholders in the imperative endeavor that is engineering education. 2: S02 12: S12 Martin E.

President DTU, Technical University of Denmark Welcome to Rethink City - CDIO Academy 2011 CDIO Academy 2011 comprises a contest and subsequent Innovation Camp, where students from all our CDIO Universities contri- bute with their unique ideas for solving problems facing megacities. In an eight-week campaign in spring 2011, almost 2,000 students from all over the world engaged in our Rethink City Contest. Stu- dents submitted more than 300 innovative ideas for addressing megacity challenges. A panel of professors from CDIO universities selected the best 25 ideas based on the ideas´ innovative potential. The teams behind the best ideas attend the Rethink City Innova- tion Camp, which is running in parallel to the CDIO conference. All 100 students from the 25 selected teams gather in “Rethink City” on DTU campus. They will mature and refine their ideas with the help of top international scholars in an international and cross-functional setting. Lectures and teamwork will happen in the Rethink City close to the conference facilities. Follow the signs and feel welcome to engage with your students. At the end of the Innovation Camp, winning teams will be selected and celebrated at the conference closing reception at Copenhagen City Hall.

  • Abstract This Scientific Research Examines the Purpose of the Exhibition of Peter Lundin’S Murder Weapon in 2012 at the Danish Police Museum in Copenhagen
    Abstract This scientific research examines the purpose of the exhibition of Peter Lundin’s murder weapon in 2012 at The Danish Police Museum in Copenhagen. Furthermore, the project analyzes four chosen statements from the public debate and an interview with the director of the museum, Frederik Strand. We will answer the thesis statement based on museum theory, argumentation theory, and theory about collective memory. The project discusses whether the exhibition can be categorized as dark tourism and which factors effects a museums consideration when exhibiting controversial objects. The project concludes that the purpose of the exhibition was to contribute to the debate about evil. In addition, it is concluded that there was a general negative attitude in the public debate. Furthermore, it is concluded that the factors which effects the consideration of controversial exhibitions are the time from the case to the exhibition and the relatives of the victims. Generally, the project concludes that there are no concrete regulations regarding the above- mentioned factors and therefore it comes down to a subjective estimation case by case.

  • Life Imprisonment in Scandinavia
    LIFE IMPRISONMENT IN SCANDINAVIA: THE ULTIMATE PUNISHMENT IN THE PENAL ENVIRONMENTS OF DENMARK, FINLAND, AND SWEDEN By Doris Schartmueller A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science Northern Arizona University August 2015 Approved: Professor Frederic I. Solop, Ph.D., Chair Professor Jacqueline Vaughn, Ph.D. Professor Neil Websdale, Ph.D. Professor Matti Tolvanen, Doctor of Laws ABSTRACT LIFE IMPRISONMENT IN SCANDINAVIA: THE ULTIMATE PUNISHMENT IN THE PENAL ENVIRONMENTS OF DENMARK, FINLAND, AND SWEDEN DORIS SCHARTMUELLER In the Scandinavian countries Denmark, Finland, and Sweden, criminal offenders convicted of murder and a select few other serious crimes can be sentenced to life in prison. Yet, life sentences are rarely imposed, even in the case of murder, and typically do not mean that the offenders sentenced to life will really remain imprisoned for the rest of their lives. Instead, life imprisonment rarely exceeds fifteen years behind bars in all three countries. This practice raises the question of why life sentences remain a sentencing option for criminal offenders in these countries when, in practice, life sentences are not true-life sentences. By treating life imprisonment as a complex social institution that has continuously been impacted by large cultural and political processes, I will trace the similarities and differences in the imposition of life sentences, conditions of confinement for life-imprisoned offenders, and lifer release over time in Denmark, Finland, and Sweden. Through comparative historical research, media report analyses, and interviews with actors in criminal justice institutions, I will explore to what extent the meaning of life imprisonment in the countries’ wider penal environments has changed over time and what role the ultimate form of punishment now plays in contemporary political and media debates.

Der har været afholdt møder hvert andet år siden da. Det 18. møde fandt sted 8.-9. oktober 2020, og som noget helt nyt i MUDS’ historie foregik konferencen på grund af gældende corona- restriktioner helt og aldeles online! Hele 88 forskere fra ind- og ud- land deltog, og heraf holdt 47 foredrag. Desværre måtte vi undvære hinandens fysiske selskab til kaffepauserne, frokosterne og festmid- dagen, men så mødtes vi til gengæld online til zoom-kaffe og zoom- frokost. Selvom konferencen blev afholdt i skyggen af COVID 19, blev mottoet, “Ingen lingvistik uden humor”, også holdt i hævd ved det 18. møde som blev afsluttet med en online skål! En STOR tak til konferencedeltagerne og oplægsholderne for at tage så positivt imod MUDS-online! Denne rapport indeholder fagfællebedømte artikler med udgangs- punkt i konferencens foredrag. Vi vil gerne takke både bidragydere og fagfællebedømmere for de mange gode artikler og den konstruk- tive feedback. Der bringes desuden et antal resuméer af bidragydere der fx har fået udgivet deres artikel andetsteds.
