We want to carry out the project in order to develop and verify a new, interdisciplinary pedagogy within archaeology and cultural heritage that makes learning easier, more effective, and more enjoyable. Through the pilot tracks Drotten and Uppåkra, we will develop and test a concrete prototype material at an early stage, with clear application in schools and adult education. The benefit is increased accessibility, engagement, and general knowledge.

We aim to publish a book featuring the voices of both pupils and teachers. The book will also include a section on the latest research into DLD and other language difficulties, as well as provide practical tools for the writing process. We have also produced writing templates for text generation that can be used by pupils in lower secondary and upper secondary schools. The writing templates are based on long-term support work carried out with pupils with language difficulties. These writing templates will be included in the book and will be reproducible.

The aim of the project is to develop, test and evaluate an educational model that strengthens trainee teachers’ socio-emotional relational competence and provides them with strategies for managing challenging interaction situations with children whose behaviour may be perceived as demanding, which in the long term can be expected to support children’s capacity for emotional self-regulation and thereby also create the conditions for children’s well-being, development and learning.

Teachers find grammar difficult to teach, and existing teaching materials are poor and sometimes incorrect. The teaching support I have created takes the pressure off teachers when it comes to grammar and shows them how they can work to help pupils achieve their goals. However, the web platform’s ‘‘grammar-package’’ still has room for improvement, for example through an expanded exercise bank, which is also self-correcting. Furthermore, the platform’s stability, security and accessibility need to be ensured for the coming years.

The primary aim of Läxhjälpen is to increase eligibility for upper secondary school. In addition to increased eligibility for upper secondary education, there are a number of other effects and added benefits linked to Läxhjälpen’s activities: increased integration, reduced risk of social exclusion, an improved study culture at school, increased safety in the local area, a foothold in the labour market and often a first reference for the homework helpers, economic benefits for society and a generation ready for employment.

Research shows that people under acute stress lose fine motor skills, experience memory impairment, develop tunnel vision and act impulsively. We aim to develop and test a new educational method for teaching life-saving bleeding control that: is comprehensible under stress, requires minimal prior knowledge, increases actual ability to act, improves memory retention, and strengthens public preparedness. The hypothesis is that intuitive, tactile and action-based teaching provides a significantly better ability to act correctly compared to theoretical instruction.

The aim is to establish a subject-integrated model for teaching writing that improves student progression and broadens participation. In the long term, we aim to be able to run similar professional development courses ourselves, which requires in-depth expertise. Bard College’s programme is based on a long, proven tradition within Writing and Thinking and Writing to Learn. Participation enables the long-term refinement and quality assurance of the project.

The project’s aim is to develop at least five curriculum-linked 4H farm activities, including written guidance for activity leaders, where pupils, through practical exercises and their own experiences, gain increased knowledge of animals, nature, food, core values, climate and sustainability, and where several school subjects can be woven in, such as biology, Swedish, English and mathematics. The activities must be adaptable to different ages and target groups, including pupils with special educational needs, those in adaptive primary school and preschool.

The purpose of the project is to develop a concept for small-scale cultivation for own use by constructing an allotment area in the sea along the coast of Kivik. The project also aims to increase marine awareness and marine knowledge through courses in marine farming, as well as by establishing two information platforms in Kivik and Simrishamn. The allotment in Kivik is the first of its kind in the Baltic Sea. The benefits of such allotments are to acquire better knowledge and understanding of marine environment, marine awareness and blue proteins / food.

Malmö is a city with great segregation and with several particularly vulnerable areas. We want to finance homework help for students at risk schools in Malmö during the academic year 2022/2023. Each homework-help group consists of 15 students with weak grades who need our support in their studies. To finance this in a school year, we are applying for a SEK 180,000 grant. A homework-help group with fifteen students in a school can make a big difference and not just for the students who are selected to participate.

The project aims at improved cost efficiency and safety for future long span constructions focusing on wooden constructions. During the past year, the risk of collapse due to instability problems has been highlighted for several large wooden buildings in Sweden and (at least) one building has collapsed. Through the development of teaching materials on instability phenomena, the level of knowledge of designers can be improved and thus more efficient and safer buildings can be designed.

The purpose of the project is to improve the conditions for teaching physics with digital support in primary and secondary schools, but also introductory courses at universities. Optics is very suitable for online teaching and digital support and the modules we have developed have the potential to improve teaching and inspire more students and get them interested in physics.

“Crack the code!” is a project that aims to give children and young people in schools (focus 7-9 years) tools for navigating an increasingly complex information landscape characterized by social media and increasing knowledge resistance. Educators should be able to easily use the project’s results to work with the topic in school. Students should be given the prerequisites to crack the code behind conspiracy theory stories that the world is ruled by evil forces that are out to manipulate us.

To create a general educational and entertaining series about TV history together with production companies, based on our beloved and much talked about Christmas Calendars. The series will highlight places and people behind the Calendars, such as Hjularöd Castle in Harlösa which became “Greveholm” and Möllegården at Kulturens Östarp which became the filming location for “It will be Christmas at Möllegården” and highlight screenwriters, actors, costumes, directors and other creators who have been part of the creative process.

We see a future where music education is appreciated for the tools it gives us to better understand ourselves and the world we live in. Music’s inherent power and significance for every human being and our culture is indisputable. This project is based on the desire to preserve and strengthen the position of music and to give children and young people the knowledge and tools they need to be able to continue to see the importance of music and culture as a fundamental part of our nature.

This project aims to produce mathematics / NO videos that combine good research in subject didactics with subject content that is close to the student and outside the school environment. The videos’ experiments should be easy for students to carry out themselves and should appeal to students who risk failing grades in mathematics / NO. The videos should also be able to be used in research on the effect of upended teaching design and as inspiration in teacher training.

The goal is to facilitate the dental student’s learning of practical elements in education. By bridging the gap between theoretical learning and practical application, we hope that students will be better prepared and equipped for the treatment of patients. In addition, our hope is that students will be more motivated to absorb knowledge when it is presented in fun and innovative ways.

The aim is to start activities in our region that help to increase the local involvement of children throughout our city, to give them tools to make their voices heard, and to encourage them to learn about the world around them, trust sources and read news regularly. Through meetings, we want to boost solidarity in different residential areas in Malmö. We want to achieve a cross-border collaboration between schools, libraries, businesses and other activities in Malmö. The work will continue to develop after the project’s end.

Our hope is that we can reduce aggressive and disruptive behaviour, which can be a risk factor for future abuse of, for example, tobacco, alcohol and drugs (ANT) and (ASPD) antisocial personality disorder, affective behaviour and in the long run crime. Today’s high school does not have the tools and resources needed to cope with these students. By using Good Behaviour Game & Inclusive Behavioural Support in School, schools can acquire concrete tools.

Many students find it difficult to keep up in school. If you have difficulty learning a language, e.g., English, you need someone who actively explains words and sentences. With homework, you often don’t have this opportunity because you can’t get hold of your teacher. We want to investigate whether AI can bridge this and actively help students with difficulties to do better in school. We will focus on students in socioeconomically disadvantaged areas who often do not have the same help from home that they may need.
