Student writings as modeling examples?

This paper focuses on two passages of Aristotle's Metaphysics, one in Z 3, the other in H1, in which Aristotle seems to assert that the hupokeimenon is said in three ways, as matter, form, and the compound of matter and form. From these two passages it is often said that subjecthood is a criterion for being substance (alongside two other criteria, separateness and being a tode ti). A consequence of this is that, if form is to be substance, and form is substance, namely first substance, it has to comply with the subject-criterion. This paper challenges this reading, purporting to show that these two passages need not commit Aristotle to the subject-criterion, and that there are good reasons not to commit him to it.

A range of stakeholder groups are involved with fostering Education for Sustainable Development (ESD). It is crucial that their views on the aims of ESD are aligned. This is a prerequisite for coordinated integration of ESD into the formal education system. However, research has not explored whether stakeholder groups have similar ideas about the aims and learning outcomes of ESD. This study investigates the differences and similarities in stakeholders' opinions on the sustainability key com-petencies students should develop. We conducted 15 interviews with German experts in ESD practice, policy, and science, analyzing the results deductively using Qualitative Content Analysis within the UNESCO framework of Key Competencies for Sustainability. An inductive approach was used to identify aspects and concepts of competence that went beyond this framework. Most of the competencies mentioned could be assigned to the UNESCO framework, but we identified the additional competency of participating at the political level as being important for ESD. The experts also identified several other concepts. The three stakeholder groups emphasized different competencies and concepts, probably due to their differing professional backgrounds. However, similarities predominated , and the experts largely agreed on which competencies should be developed. Structural difficulties with integrating ESD into the education system are therefore not likely to be the result of fundamental differences in perspective between the three stakeholder groups on the aims of ESD. However, their different frames of reference might lead to miscommunication and misunderstanding, which could impede integration. This aspect needs thorough examination in the future.

Reading is one of the most common activities of our academic practices: we read in order to teach, to do research, to deal with organizing practices, and sometimes simply for the pleasure of doing it. It happens that we read and a few hours later, we have already forgotten what we have read, while at other times-in special moments of grace-we read a passage that remains engraved in the heart and stays in our memory for a long time. A fragment of text strikes us, it talks to us, and perhaps it has particular aesthetic qualities, but perhaps not. The fact is that it becomes embodied; it becomes part of our flesh and our sentient world. Perhaps it also arouses a less than noble feeling, such as envy of the author for his or her ability to do things with words. We chose to begin the introduction

Ressurser og arealer i utmarka blir stadig viktigere for samfunnet og er gjenstand for økende konflikter, spesielt i nord. Samtidig kompliserer klimaendringer bildet ytterligere. NIBIO Tromsø forsker på en rekke fagområder relatert til ressursene i utmarka. Her presenteres smakebiter fra noe av dette arbeidet.
