AbstractIn my ambition to improve my writing and reflect upon the way I express myself I am, in this paper, going to study the purport of the term pathetic. I do this by inquiring what lexicon and dictionaries say about the term and by studying how the word can be used in present time. I apply the contemporary usage of the term pathetic to my own text and then adapt my text from how the term is used in our time. By doing this I clarify to myself how I look at my own literary style, what I want my writing to be like and how the progress in my composing is developing. According to the interpretations I have done, I find meanings like ?ridiculous? and meanings which have to do with strong emotions as well.

SammandragSyftet med denna studie är att undersöka kopplingen mellan skriftspråk och självbild. En undersökning av 6 elever i 12-årsåldern genomfördes. Undersökningsmaterialet består av en skriftlig berättelse och enkätsvar utifrån både slutna och öppna frågor. Jag deltog som observatör och stöd under elevernas arbete med att skriva sina berättelser och svara på enkätfrågorna.Med tanke på undersökningens omfattning går det inte att säga att det finns en tydlig koppling mellan skriftspråksförmåga och självbild. Man kan dock se några tendenser som är intressanta.

Det här arbetet har handlat om att komponera sångmelodier bestående av vers, refräng och eventuellt en brygga med hjälp av sex olika metoder. Jag ville ta reda på vilken metod jag ska använda för att min arbetsprocess ska flyta på så bra som möjligt och samtidigt få resultat som jag är nöjd med. Melodierna var menade att passa inom genren pop och tanken var att de skulle passa min röst, eftersom jag planerar att sjunga dem själv. Jag kom fram till att den metod som fick arbetsprocessen att flyta på bäst för mig var att improvisera fram melodier med rösten till en färdig text, men den metod som jag tycker gav de bästa melodierna var att improvisera fram melodier med rösten utan några andra hjälpmedel. Arbetet har resulterat i 24 stycken inspelade sångmelodier med tillhörande ackord samt två stycken färdiga låtar med text och ett enklare arrangemang..

Inom det teoretiska perspektivet för huvudområdet SMDI vilket inbegriper språkliga och kulturella verksamheter som barn och unga ingår i, men samtidigt med vidgad ram mot skrivutveckling och textsocialisation mot det nya medielandskapet, skrivs denna uppsats. Studien syftar till att ge en djupare förståelse för hur elevers samtal skapar text i skärmbaserad undervisning, det vill säga hur eleverna arbetar med digitala verktyg i undervisningen, samt för hur läraren stödjer samtalet. Det teoretiska perspektivet bottnar i Vygotskijs sociokulturella teori. Studien som har en hermeneutisk inriktning med ansats att tolka och klargöra, är av kvalitativ karaktär. Metoden är deltagande observation.
