CTF is one of the participants in the project IndBygg, which is run by Paper Province. The project aims to promote a green transition within the construction industry and, through collaboration, bring industrial wood construction to new heights.
To achieve the goals for sustainable development and create a fossil-free society, we need to develop the forest-based bioeconomy and use more wood as a construction material.
Karlstad University’s user lab are used by different disciplines and also in collaboration with external parties. Within the research group for usability studies, there is also the development of methodologies for interaction design, especially around Ozlab which is a GUI experimental web service developed to admit easy testing, even improvisation, of ideas for interactive products. It admits non-programmers to become concept developers and interactivity testers.

Often when radical technological development happens, I gaze at it from a distance and try to understand it's impact on my life. This time I got to be a part of the revolution. I’m talking about the eye-tracking revolution, a journey that has been amazing to be a part of during the past 10 years. A journey that has just started.
Ten years ago I approached Tobii Technology with a radical suggestion, to lend me an eye-tracker.

» NVivo - kvalitativ dataanalys
Welcome to an introduction to NVivo, a software for qualitative data analysis. The introduction will be divided into two sessions.
Workshop 1: NVivo basics and thinking qualitative research digitally
In this workshop we first make a broad introduction of so-called Qualitative Data Analysis Software (QDAS) and the accompanying debates and discussions that continues to be associated with the use of such tools.
The degree of commitment and pro-active actions of all involved people and stakeholders influence how successful a digital business implementation will be. It is also directly linked to how successful the use of the new system will be perceived.

The different parts of the conference such as workshops, keynote and lunch takes place at the university in fairly close proximity from each other. Nevertheless, it is probably useful for you to be able to navigate around the university.
Finding your way at the university
The university campus hosts several different buildings and these are the basic units for navigating to a particular room, corridor or lecture hall.
On December 4, high school students, university students, doctoral candidates, senior researchers, and company representatives gathered at Karlstad University to work together in teams on current mathematical challenges presented by businesses during the The Mathematics Meets Industry Day (MiMM Day).
Rottneros, Tesa, Blue Ocean Closures, and Region Värmland presented real-world problems, seeking sustainable solutions with the participants' help.
We work within the paradigm of a circular forest based bioeconomy using a system analysis perspective.
The research group Water-Energy Nexus at Karlstad University contribute to a circular forest based bioeconomy by upgrading low-value sidestreams to raw materials, which are then used for production of useful materials and energy carriers.
Our vision
We research biomaterials using a systems perspective to enable resource efficiency.

At least since the start of the Covid19 pandemic digitalization has reached most of us. By now we are all familiar with using digital platforms to meet and socialize. However, digitalization is much more than changing the way we connect and communicate; it also changes how information is gathered, analysed and used for decision making processes.

There is a shift happening within service design from designing something "out there" to designing ourselves. This shift opens up questions about how we might design our "systemic-self" and what new approaches we need to do so.
In service design, there is often a focus on mapping the service systems we wish to change. We create personas, draw user journeys and plot out the different stakeholders.

Isn’t it obvious that women spend more money than men in the presence of a physically fit male employee? Isn’t it obvious that viewing an opposite-sex individual with an attractive face makes people more motivated to choose healthy rather than unhealthy foods? And, isn’t it obvious that restricting product touch in a store decreases rather than increases consumer spending? After all, these are all beliefs held by consumers and even marketing professors.
