Its primary goal is to illuminate the prevalence, root causes, and consequences of teacher bullying while proposing effective interventions to foster a healthier educational environment. Through an analysis of these legislative frameworks, including qualitative data from interviews, survey outcomes, experts’ reaction to the situation, and policy analysis, this research aims to shed light on the dynamics of teacher bullying. By identifying various forms of bullying experienced by teachers and highlighting the challenges they face, this study contributes to a better understanding of the complexities surrounding this issue. Moreover, it seeks to provide actionable insights for policymakers, teachers, and stakeholders to implement proactive measures that promote a supportive and respectful school environment, balancing teachers’ well-being and students’ well-being.Show less

To meet the criterion of aurality and orality the translation must meet the testible criteria of rhyme, metre, parallelism, lexical echoes, conciseness, the relation between the sound of words and the atmosphere of a verse or surah, and repetition, which are the most important linguistic structures underlying orality and aurality. Recognizability for Muslims is part of the criterion of meaning. A translation method according to these criteria has been used in the testcase and the translation process has been described. The above resulted in a translation that met the criteria of the research question.Show less

It focuses on the case study of Deena Mohamed using content analyses of the second part of Deena Mohamed’s graphic novel Shubeik Lubeik and her webcomic Qahera. The content analyses have shown the presence of feminist comics activism in both works. They tackle the issues of gender inequality, gender-based violence, corruption, class difference, stereotyping and depression, However, the chapter from the Shubeik Lubeik novel consisted of a less prominent display of feminist comics activism further argued through not meeting the requirements of activist communication. This can be explained by the fact that Shubeik Lubeik was a printed novel that needed to be screened by a publisher. Whilst the Qahera webcomic was published online and entirely independent allowing it more freedom regarding its content.Show less

It explores the transformation of these fortifications, such as moats and ramparts, which once marked urban landscapes across Europe. Over time, these defensive structures became redundant, and most were either fully or partially destroyed, leaving behind traces. The land once occupied by these city fortifications has since been repurposed for various uses, one of which being green spaces. The thesis focuses not on the reasons behind these repurposing decisions but on their consequences. As such the main question that the thesis is answering is: How do decisions made in the past regarding the repurposing of land formerly occupied by historical city fortifications influence present-day urban greening efforts and green space allocation in the cities of Copenhagen and Groningen? Examining how these decisions have influenced the current distribution of green space and the urban greening agendas in cities, for this thesis Copenhagen and Groningen. By understanding the impact of past policies and planning strategies on the development of these former fortification sites, the thesis sheds light on how these decisions continue to shape contemporary urban environments. The thesis underscores the enduring influence of these land-repurposing decisions on today’s urban greening efforts. It highlights their significance for urban landscapes and cultural heritage and the current distribution of urban green spaces and urban greening initiatives. The study provides valuable insights into how past land use decisions continue to affect urban greening agenda efforts in the present day.Show less
