We got in contact with Marco AB, who we?ve had contact with before concerning earlier projects, to find out if they were interested in arranging a larger project for our last class (Examensarbete 15hp). They were very positive to this proposition, and soon they offered us a project regarding reconstruction of their current mechanical device that absorbs all the force from the lift itself when it is at a predefined level (sv. sjunkspärr). The current solution does fulfill the requirements that are given, however it is not a solution that gives a high level of satisfactory.

Syftet med vårt examensarbete är att genom barnsamtal samt observationer, studera vilka räknestrategier barn i år ett använder sig av i mötet med fenomenet addition. Det är dock inte endast fenomenet addition som är det intressanta, utan även vägen fram till en bättre förståelse för barnens tankar, detta för att vi ska vara bättre rustade i vår framtida undervisning. Då alla ser världen på skilda sätt, kommer barnen till skolan med olika förförståelse. Av den anledningen är det viktigt att pedagogen besitter verktyg, vilka kan hjälpa det enskilda barnet att utveckla sina kunskaper på bästa sätt. Frågeställningen vi avsett att undersöka är: vilka räknestrategier använder sig elever i år ett av i mötet med additionsuppgifter inom talområdet 1- 10? En viktig slutsats vi kom fram till under vårt arbete är att eleverna använder sig av olika räknestrategier samt att de har olika förkunskaper.

Att kunna använda sig av olika strategier för att kunna räkna och veta när man bör använda sig av dem är något som betonas i Lgr11. Denna studie undersöker huruvida ett urval av elever i år 6 kan variera sina räknestrategier för huvudräkning i uppgifter med addition och subtraktion och vilka de vanligaste felen som eleverna gör är. Vidare undersöks om eleverna använder sig av skilda strategier på samma uppgift, beroende på om den är satt i en text i ett vardagligt sammanhang eller enbart består av nakna tal. Som ett led i denna studie gjordes kvalitativa intervjuer med eleverna. Resultaten av studien visar att eleverna till stor del varierar sina strategier och att de generellt sett byter strategi från den nakna uppgiften till den i textform..

Vi har undersökt vilka räknefärdigheter en grupp elever i årskurs 9 på en skola i Växjö har i addition, subtraktion, multiplikation och division. Vi har avgränsat studien till att behandla de naturliga talen och decimaltalen. De metoder, kunskaper och de svårigheter som åskådliggjorts har vi redovisat. Vi har även tagit reda på elevernas begreppsförståelse kring de fyra räknesätten. Vårt resultat bygger på en kvalitativ metod som består av ett test och två kompletterande intervjuer.

Safe retrieval of nutrients from human excreta to fertilize crops in order to gain adequate yields will increase food security and sustainability in agriculture areas with nutrient-poor fields. Safe and nutritious food will meet the dietary needs of the individual which promotes public health and the ability of an active life. Human excreta should be considered as a resource instead of being assumed as waste. Human faeces and urine is excellent fertilizers which may close the nutrient loop if utilized properly. However, sanitation of the excreta is required to prevent disease transmission by reducing the content of gastrointestinal pathogens such as bacteria, viruses and parasites. The objective of this study was to in small scale evaluate the sanitation in a combined liquid compost and urea treatment by monitor the inactivation of bacteria and viruses at the combination three start temperatures, 45, 40 and 35 °C, and three additions of urea, 0.5, 0.75 and 1 % and reference, 0 % urea addition.

Vi använder oss av ett positionssystem när vi skriver tal vilket ofta är en oreflekterad kunskap, denna kunskap förväntas elever tillägna sig redan i årskurs 1-3. Vi har under vår verksamhetsförlagda utbildning sett att vissa elever har svårt att förstå detta system. Därför är syftet med denna litteraturöversikt att undersöka vad befintlig forskning säger om elevers möjligheter och begränsningar i lärandet av positionssystemet. Materialet samlades in genom systematisk litteratursökning i flera databaser. Litteraturen som sedan analyserades och kategoriserades bestod av tretton stycken forskningsartiklar, en avhandling och en proceeding.

The production of ferrochromium alloys at Vargön Alloys AB contributes to formation of unwanted ferrochromium dust, which contains toxic Cr(VI). The dust is since summer 2005 treated with an iron-sulphate solution to reduce Cr(VI) to the non-toxic Cr(III). A year later the treatment technique was improved and disposal occurs in cells on the landfill. The cells can be up to 300 m3 and the edges can be made out of fro example concrete. Tests are conducted on the treated dust when it is disposed.

Todays board game manuals have many shortcomings. One of them is that they are not always adapted to the game's target audience.Adapting the language and shape of a game manual for the the target group children, can save time for both parents and teachers, and give the children a chance to conquer the game by themselves. In addition, playing board games can lead to children developing other important properties such as problem solving and independence.This study found that the game manuals inconsistency, tone and the way they adress the reader makes it difficult for children to grasp the content.
