The purpose of this thesis is to carry out a qualitative study of the perceptions of language teachers as to their role in the teaching of values and morals to pupils. Five language teachers have been interviewed about their perceptions of how values are taught and their role therein. The interviews serve to investigate the reality of teaching values to pupils in a Swedish secondary school and the work involved in this on-going process, this being with a view to having a better understanding of just how important a role the teaching of values plays in the daily working life of a teacher. Terms such as fundamental values and morals can be difficult to define as they are highly personal and can differ from person to person depending on one?s background, experiences and family circumstances, for example.

Uppsatsen Röst och inskription. Utkast till den inre monologens teckenteori kan sammanfattas som ett försök att beskriva och förklara strukturella och funktionella egenskaper hos inre monolog (i engelsk litteratur inner speech), samt relatera dessa egenskaper till ?yttre?, dialogiskt talspråk. En axial grundtanke som löper genom hela undersökningen är att monologen inte utan vidare låter sig reduceras till en enkel formel som ?talspråk minus röst? etc., utan att monologen bör anses betingad av andra lingvistiska förutsättningar, bland vilka frånvaron av fysisk röstbildning bara är en bland flera faktorer..

Our aim in this work has been to redesign ModernFamilies and make a user-friendly interface for people with aphasia. The focus has been to identify general issues they might face while using different technology and applications, in order to find better alternative design for ModernFamilies, with a focus on usability. To approach this issue, we used a qualitative method. Our study includes several interviews and observations preformed in conjunction with the AGNES project (AGeing in a NEtworked Society) and speech therapists. Aphasia requires simple design that in the same time gives them support to understand and use technology and different applications.

Speech Transmission Index (STI) är både en metod för att mäta taltydlighet och en skala som beskriver taltydlighet. Metoden presenterades av H. Steeneken och T. Houtgast 1985 och har därefter fått många användningsområden. STI beräknas utifrån modulationsindex, där modulationsindex är förändringen av modulation genom ett system.
