Hur ska SFI-eleverna snabbast möjligast kunna lära sig svenska? Det ärmånga intresserade av att få veta. Det debatteras frekvent i media och ett flertalforskare studerar svenska som andraspråk i termer av investment (uttryckerelevernas satsning i form av språkinlärning och satsningen påverkas såväl avderas egen insats som av det omgivande samhällets), integration, segregationoch social identitet nu.Studiens syfte är att beskriva tre SFI-lärares uppfattningar om vilka faktorersom påverkar SFI-studerandes svenskinlärning. Frågeställningen är följande:Hur ser lärare på språkinlärning, social identitet, investment och integration,samt eventuella samband däremellan? En kvalitativ intervjustudie genomfördes.Tre SFI-lärare anställda på komvux i en medelstor svensk stad har intervjuats.Det teoretiska ramverket för tolkning av materialet är ett försök tillhermeneutisk ansats inspirerad av kritisk teori, som möjliggör en interaktivprocess mellan intervjumaterial och teori.

In this thesis I investigate aesthetic preference for picture books among children aged 3?6 as well as criteria for preference among parents. Through my design project: illustration of a picture book, I aim to put my research on preference in the context of illustration and design. By using the design project as an applied method for research I have sought to answer how one as an illustrator can apply knowledge regarding preferences of the target groups when illustrating for picture books. I have primarily based my research within the field of cognitive developmental psychology, with primary focus on stage theory, and the field of literature.

Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka och skildra de argument som finns för, respektive mot, att muslimska friskolor skulle integrera respektive segregera eleverna från samhället, samt undersöka vilka övriga argument som finns för, respektive mot, muslimska friskolor. För att uppnå detta syfte har jag använt mig av en jämförande litteraturstudie där jag har studerat forskare och andra sakkunnigas argumentering kring dessa frågor. Väldigt få empiriska studier har gjorts på området, varav ingen specifikt har berört de frågeställningar jag ville få svar på.  I min argumentöversikt sammanställde jag de olika argumenten och upptäckte att många argument fanns både på ?för? och ?mot? sidan. Exempelvis påstods att den trygghet som eleverna utvecklade genom att umgås med andra elever med liknande religiös och kulturell bakgrund både kunna leda till att de hade lättare att integreras i samhället men även till att de blev mer isolerade.

The method consists inthe analysis and discussion of how the pieces portrays females and males (with focuson feminine and masculine coded expression and presentation of desire) and whatconsequences it brings. This based on various method books of norm-breaking designwork for Aesthetic staff, and a theory based on Judith Butler's research. Primarymaterial consists in a piece analysis of Pygmalion, from a spectator's perspective.Main Results: The designing is consciously working with a set of norm-breakinggender expression, particularly female genders. The set translates socially criticalviews against patriarchal hierarchies.

This thesis deals with the compatibility between analysis software Revit Structure2012 and Robot Structural Analysis 2012. The purpose is to become more aware ofinformation management models to be compatible across different softwareapplications. The structural model is made to be optimal for the compatibility of othersoftware Aim is also to gain an understanding of the transferring methods that exist,and which method is most convenient to use and to examine whether the methodswork in practice. Objective of this project is to make the modeling processtime-efficient for constructors. Models do not need to be structured in severaloccasions in different software; it only needs an optimal model that transfers properlybetween software.The method used in the thesis consist cases where the transferring process isexamined.

Background: The patient meets nurses in the emergency department that provide both nursing and has medical skills. The care that the patients are receiving should be individually adjusted. The care is shaped by the individual meeting with the patient according to the nursing theorist Orlando. There are large variations between the number of patients in an emergency department and it sets high demands on the staff, both physically and mentally. When the emergency department is highly loaded there is a priority for medical care and psycho-social and aesthetic aspects will have to wait.

The area of Järvafältet in the northern parts of Stockholm is one of the many large-scale investments into Swedish residency executed in the 60?s and 70?s, and which got the name Miljonprogrammet. Not until today these buildings have been restored, and frustration has been brewing in these areas for some time. Järvadialogen is the name of a communication program connected to the housing restoration in the area of Husby, which is a part of Järvafältet, and functions as a promotional and informational dialogue between residents in the area and those responsible for the communication program. The cultural diversity in the area of Husby is significant, and with theories on intercultural communication, change communication and power we study the performed communicative process and the manner in which it is received.

Trots långt driven datorisering sker fortfarande en stor del av informationsöverföringen mellan företag med hjälp av pappersdokument. I stort sett all information finns ursprungligen i ett datorsystem, men när det skall föras över till handelspartners eller myndigheter skrivs det ut på papper och skickas per fax, brev eller bud vidare till mottagaren. Denna registrerar till stor del samma uppgifter genom manuell inmatning i sitt datorsystem. Syftet med undersökningen är att identifiera viktiga faktorer som minskar gapet mellan småföretagets inställning till EDI och stora organisationers inställning till införandet och där finna framgångsfaktorer som överbryggar eller minskar gapet. Teorin påvisar att småföretag får mindre fördelar av EDI än de större företag som det har EDI koppling emot.

To end up as an immigrant in an unknown country and to try to participate in the majority society means both psychological and physical difficulties where their whole life is changing.

The aim of this master's degree dissertation is to compile examples of different ways of planning, implementing and following up the organisation of two integrated libraries, which serve both the general public and the school. In order to respond to this, we formulated the all-embracing question: How best can the integration of libraries for schools and the general public be planned, implemented and followed up? This formulation gave rise to four further questions. In order to answer these questions, the problem formulated and our basic aim, we have studied the relevant literature on school libraries, libraries for the general public, and integrated libraries. These sources comprise official reports on this theme, dissertations, and more topical articles.

Vattenavvisning och smutsavvisning är två egenskaper hos textila produkter som idag eftertraktas av konsumenter. En ämnesgrupp som är direkt relaterad till ovan nämnda egenskaper är fluorkarboner. Ibland förs fluorkarboner på en redan färdigtillverkad textilvara genom impregnering, laminering eller beläggning. Polymeren PTFE, polytetrafluoreten, används inom textil beläggning och som huvudkomponent i membran för att skydda textiler från vatten och smuts. Syftet med detta arbete var att undersöka om någon effekt av vatten- och smutsavvisning kan uppvisas vid integration av PTFE-fiber i polyester- eller viskosgarn.

This essay examines the debate that arose in connection to the sale of Carl Larsson?s monumental painting Midvinterblot in 1987. My main purpose is to examine which meanings the debaters ascribed Midvinterblot and in which way the debate influenced the paintings significance as cultural heritage. I will therefore argue that the debate initiated a renegotitation of the paintings meaning as cultural heritage. In the debate the debaters emphasized the National Museum?s responsibility over cultural heritage, Midvinterblots aestethic, the paintings economic value and its national implications.
