Det övergripande syftet för studien är att identifiera och kartlägga elevers arbetssätt inom ramen för utvecklingsarbetet med ITis. Dessutom kommer betydelsen av en sådan praktik i relation till elevers lärande att studeras.Införandet av IT i skolan (ITis) innebär förändringar i lärandeprocessen. Det finns därför behov av att öka förståelsen för hur lärandet går till när IT införs i skolan.En förstudie gjordes med syfte att undersöka om och hur ITis innebar ett förändrat arbetssätt för eleven. Förstudien påvisade tydligt att ITis inneburit ett annorlunda arbetssätt för eleven. Två teman : tillsammans och handlingsutrymme kunde identifieras.

This studie is an investigation about pupilassets workningforms and participation at school. The basis of the studie are two ITis-projects, whose workningforms investegates with qualitative methods in form of observations and interviews whit pupils and teachers. This investigation will accomplish to find out how the pupils see their participation at school, and also to investigate what pupilassets workningforms mean to teachers and pupils. Conclusions from the investigation are that a more pupilassets workningforms doesn´t exist continuous in the teaching and that the pupils see their increased participation in the work with the ITis-project as something temporarliy. Some suggestions to further investigation into this area are to be found in the end of the paper..

The ability to tackle NP-hard problems has been greatly extended by the introduction of Metaheuristics (see Blum & Roli (2003)) for a summary of most Metaheuristics, general problem-independent optimisation algorithms extending the hill-climbing local search approach to escape local minima. One of these algorithms is Iterated Local Search (ILS) (Lourenco et al., 2002; Stützle, 1999a, p. 25ff), a recent easy to implement but powerful algorithm with results comparable or superior to other state-of-the-art methods for many combinatorial optimisation problems, among them the Traveling Salesman (TSP) and Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAP). ILS iteratively samples local minima by modifying the current local minimum and restartinga local search porcedure on this modified solution. This thesis will show how ILS can be implemented for MSA.

Denna rapport granskar processen kring hur ett systeminförande och systemskifte kan gå till och vad som bör beaktas extra i samband med detta. Som exempel studeras Motala kommun och det systemskifte som genomfördes under 2004 samt ITis som var en statlig satsning för att öka tillgången och sprida kunskaper kring IT i Sveriges skolor.Själva systemförändringsprocessen består egentligen av tre delar: beslutsfattandet, införandet och det fortsatta användandet. I beslutsfattandet ingår både den första granskningen och utvärderingen av möjliga alternativ samt själva sättet som beslutet sedan tas på. Vid införandet finns det mycket som bör ligga i fokus för att minimera problem. En bra planering och ett genomförande som följer denna planering verkar vara ett bra utgångsläge för en lyckad implementering.

Retinoscopy, also known as skiascopy, is an objective method for assessing therefraction of the eye. This method has been used for a long time, both in animalsand human patients. According to the literature, it has been postulated that it is notnecessary to obtain cycloplegia before the examination in lower mammals. Someauthors even mention that it can make the examination more difficult. Therefore ITis not recommended.

Eyjafjallajökull is made of textile, ash and pigment. ITis a publication which tells the story of the ash cloudthat stopped Europe. The primary goal of the projectwas to use textile as material and screen printing asmethod to present the story of Eyjafjallajökull. Theaim was to examine the relationship between artand graphic design. As the material and printingmethod was set from the beginning the processwas inverted: The information needed to fill thepublication was produced to fit the presentationand not the other way around.

The future of Christianity is something that has been, and still is, discussed all over the world. Atthe first sight it can look like this religion, that has former been so big all over Europe, isdiminishing. More and more people are leaving the church and the church-benches are very seldomfilled. In our society it is the individual that is important and the moral life is changing. But, this donot still have to be the end of Christianity, which some people believe.

Tripeptidyl peptidase II (TPPII) is an exopeptidase which cleaves tripeptides from theN-terminus of peptides. The exact functional role of TPPII is still a matter of investigation. ITis believed that the enzyme is primarily involved in intracellular protein degradation, where itcooperates with the proteasome and other peptidases to degrade proteins into free aminoacids. These amino acids can subsequently be used in the production of new proteins. The aimof this work was to express murine wild type TPPII using E.

Background: Heart failure is a complex condition which means that the hearts capacity topump blood is reduced. The aim of this study was to investigate how patients with heartfailure considered their knowledge and the information they received about their disease andself-care.Method: Patients suffering from heart failure, hospitalized at section 30 E (n=13), andpatients visiting the nurse led heart failure clinic (n=4) at Akademiska sjukhuset in Uppsala,were requested to participate in the study. The patients answered questions about knowledgeand information concerning self-care and their disease. Data were analyzed using SPSS 15.0.Results: The patients valued their knowledge about the disease as lower than their knowledgeabout self-care. The study showed that all the patients found the information they hadreceived about their self-care better than the information they had received about theirdisease.

To dress in used clothes is no longer considered as unfashionable. The acceptance of thesecond hand market has increased over the years. Vintage clothing has becomefashionable because you get the opportunity to create your own individual style. Vintagehas been given status. It has become a trend.

Abstrakt Studiens syfte är att undersöka vilka faktorer som är avgörande för om elever i läs- och skrivsvårigheter får hjälp i form av datorstöd. Detta speglas mot bakgrund av pedagogernas rektorsområde, undervisningsnivå, kön, ålder, egen datoranvändning, antal undervisningsår, fortbildningsbenägenhet och eventuell ITis-utbildning. Studien bygger på en enkätundersökning av alla vuxna som arbetar med elever i den pedagogiska verksamheten i grund- och särskolan, år 1-9, i en hel kommun. Enkätfrågorna begränsas till frågor om den egna användningen av datorn, tillgänglighet till olika programvaror och behärskandet av dessa, inställning till datorstöd och åtgärder i form av träningsprogram, talböcker, talsynteser, scanner, OCR-program, anpassning av dokument samt eget fortbildningsbehov i aktuella programvaror. Sammanfattningsvis visar resultaten i undersökningen att såväl tillgänglighet som behärskande och användande av datorstöd till elever i läs- och skrivsvårigheter är lågt bland personalen. Däremot finns en mycket positiv attityd och tilltro till datorstöd av olika slag som hjälp för elever i läs- och skrivsvårigheter. Dessutom är en stor del av personalen intresserad av att fortbilda sig inom aktuella programvaror..

Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur datorn kan användas i de tidiga skolåren, och då framför allt vid läs- och skrivundervisningen. Vi ska även undersöka vilka bakomliggande faktorer som kan påverka hur datorn används som pedagogiskt redskap i undervisningen. I forskningsbakgrunden redogörs för tre olika metoder för läs- och skrivinlärning. Vidare beskrivs två olika projekt, där fokus legat på läs- och skrivinlärning via datorn. För att få en förförståelse för projekten redogörs det även för skillnaden mellan eleven som konsument eller producent, ordbehandlingsprogram och pennan som skrivverktyg samt samspelet vid datorn.

The aim of this study is to look at how librarians express theirpart in reading groups organized by public libraries. Thestudy is based on interviews with seven public librarians insouth regions of Sweden. The main theory used to analyse isfound in the article Bibliotekaren som litteraturformidler(1994) written by the Norwegian librarian Jofrid KarnerSmidt, where she talks about five different roles that alibrarian can have in this context and how they appear. Threeof these roles were used in this study: the pedagogue, theliterature expert and the marketer.The interviewed librarians mostly had a similar view on howthey look at their role in the reading group. They saw theirpurpose as to provide all kinds of people with a possibility tojoin in discussions about mutual interests and share variousopinions about books.

Mould is a common contamination in cereals. The growth of mould can stimulate mycotoxins production andsome of which at critical concentrations cause health problems in humans and animals. Fusarium is one of thefungus species that has been found in crops and can cause major problems for farmers such as reduced harvestand economic losses. A group of Fusarium species, Fusarium avenaceum, Fusarium poae and Fusariumtricinctum express a mycotoxin, enniatin. The limited information available today about enniatin-forming fungiis that they grow out on fields of wheat in colder climates.
