Burnt alun shale and lime is the residual product that was formed when alun shale was used as fuel to convert limestone to quick lime. The material contains arsenic, vanadium, molybdenum, cadmium, nickel, lead, and uranium among other elements. The aim of this paper is to examine the uptake of trace elements in vegetables grown on burnt alun shale and lime to determine whether or not the surrounding environment and humans are exposed to these elements by eating plant products. A cultivation trial was carried out where onion, carrot, and lettuce were grown on three mounds of burnt alun shale and lime in the Falköping area in Sweden. The treatments were burnt alun shale and lime mixed with peat, only burnt alun shale and lime, and a reference soil. The reference plots were natural soil mixed with peat adjacent to the mounds.

Syftet med undersökningen är att ta reda på vilka matematiska förmågor enligt Krutetskiis teori som synliggörs hos elever i skolår 5 som arbetar gruppvis med problemlösning. Dessutom undersöktes vad läraren uppmärksammar som matematisk förmåga och hur läraren organiserar sin undervisning för att utveckla matematisk förmåga. Krutetskii (1976) har definierat de matematiska förmågorna genom en studie som gjordes 1955-1966. Dessa tolkades och analyserades från en översatt version av hans verk. Med inspelat material från två observationer synliggjordes flera matematiska förmågor hos eleverna.

ABSTRAKT Cremona, Eva och Jägerdén, Calle (2009) Matte på lätt svenska är svårt - en studie om andraspråkselever och matematiska textuppgifter. Maths in simple Swedish is difficult, A study of second-language students and textual mathematical exercises. Skolutveckling och ledarskap, Specialpedagogisk påbyggnadsutbildning, Lärarutbildningen, Malmö högskola Syftet med studien var att undersöka vilken betydelse den språkliga formuleringen har för andraspråkselevers resultat i matematik. I examensarbetet redovisas hur dagens forskning ser på andraspråkselevers situation och vil-ka hinder som kan finnas för att dessa ska nå framgång i skolan. Hur skolornas organisation bidrar till studieresultaten samt betydelsen av modersmålsundervisning tas också upp. Studi-en genomfördes i fyra kommuner och eleverna som deltog gick på IVIK - Individuella pro-grammets introduktionskurser för invandrare. Efter en förstudie, där hemspråkslärare och elever intervjuades, genomfördes en kvantitativ enkätundersökning.

I denna uppsats kommer vi att påpeka de problem som idag finns med färdiga CMS. Vi kommer att utvärdera möjligheterna om en alternativ utvecklingsidé. Denna idé kommer sedan att genomföras mot en webbtjänst som Skellefteå kommun har efterfrågat. Slutresultatet visar att det finns stora fördelar med modulbaserad webbutveckling, även fast det är en tidskrävande process med att utveckla oberoende moduler..
