This report is the result of my examination work in Textdesign at Mälardalen University, Eskilstuna. The purpose with this work was to develop an accessible information material for the target group ?normal bowlers? that gives them the information they need to make their own decision on the lanes, because they often miss a coach during an away game. The focus was to target adjust the material through the theories readability, legibility and reading value, together with the method qualitative interviews. The result became a tested information booklet about how to read a lane pattern paper with additional information within the subject..

The purpose of this study has been to get a deeper insight into how students reason about the textbook and teaching that goes beyond its content. This in order for the teacher to be able to consider and respond to these important attitudes already at the planning stages of such teaching situations. This approach will aid to help students overcome the distrust of things that are not in the textbook.The study shows that students have an attitude of overconfidence to the textbook's reliability. It is considered to be controlled in its content as well as being a reference on the extent of the knowledge content.The general approach to teaching that deviates from textbook structure is that it is welcomed as an interesting feature. However, a questioning attitude soon appears about whether the element will be included in any requirements for knowledge or tests.The following important conclusions can be drawn after this study was carried out:Very clearly communicate the purpose of all education that deviate from the textbook.Inform students about the textbook's deficiencies and the need for supplementing.Accept and respond to students' focus in that grades are the main driving force for the acquisition of knowledge in high school..

Background: Parents that loose a child in connection to labour are in great need of support.Health care provider treatment and support is of great importance to how the parents will experience something that is doomed from the beginning to be one of the most tragic events the parents will ever experience.

This report treats two assignments that concerns the biofuel furnace at Billerud Skärblacka AB and how these assignments were solved. The assignments were: reducing the number of CO-spikes and tuning the overfire air control loop. To reduce the number of CO-spikes the possibility that skewness in mass distribution affects the number of CO-spikes were study. The skewnwss of mass distribution was controled and adjusted with two experiments. The conclusion that was made is that the skewness of mass distribution were not sufficient enough to affect the number of CO-spikes.

AbstractIn the literature on multiculturalism and group rights there is a strong tradition that sees diversity as something directly paradoxal to unity. In this tradition, scholars put forward a view of multiculturalism as a divisive and exclusionary process which breaks down the cohesion and unity of society. Related to this notion is that of a neutral and universally valid frame of reference in which political dilemmas can be solved; for example a neutral civil sphere where the ?true essence? of society lies. In this essay I attempt to criticise these two notions.

This thesis focuseses on archives and availability. The general public seem to have trouble finding their way tothe actual archives even though most archival institutions are easily accessed and provide interesting material.Maybe it is because archives are generally not as well known as other institutions within the ALM-area, eventhough the need to know ones history and identity is considered mainstream. Whether or not history takes off atthe archives is a complex question to answer. Archives, however, certanly contribute to our ideas of earlier timesand the concept of history.I have examined what archives do to make these contributions known to the general public and to whatextent they make their material avaliable. I have also looked into archival pedagogy since it is often connected toavaliability.

Enligt läroplanen för förskolan ska förskolan erbjuda barn en lärmiljö där de kan växla mellan olika aktiviteter såväl inomhus som utomhus. Studiens syfte är att undersöka de förutsättningar som olika leksaksförråds material erbjuder för barns lek och samspel under deras utevistelse. Vidare är syftet att ta reda på hur förskollärare förhåller sig till olika typer av leksaker och saker att leka med ute på gården. Uppsatsen bygger på en kvalitativ metodansats genom tre observationer och sex intervjuer. Genom dessa undersöker vi tre förskolors leksaksförråd och material som barnen har tillgång till i sin utevistelse samt sex förskollärares resonemang kring dessa.Resultatet visar på att förskollärare har olika resonemang och uppfattningar kring materialets olika funktioner för barns lärande och utveckling av materialets användning. Dessa funktioner påverkas av barns tillgänglighet och pedagogers förhållningssätt.

Idag finns det ett stort antal företag på den svenska marknaden som tillverkar och säljerprofilkläder för vården.Utbudet från dessa företag är slående lika varandra och det finns ett begränsat utbud vadgäller färger och modeller.Inom den privata vårdomsorgen har man mer resurser och därmed större möjligheter att skapaen unik arbetsmiljö. En modern och stilren arbetsklädsel tillför mycket till denna atmosfär ochutbudet av profilkläder borde därav breddas.Genom att redogöra för olika ekologiska material samt de grundläggande egenskaperna enligtvilken man skapar ett material av lämplig kvalitet lägger vi grunden för skapandet av enklädsel som tillför en känsla av exklusivitet och unikhet.Lägg därefter till en skapandeprocess av två prototyper av en överdel samt en nederdel somett alternativ till dagens modeller. Plaggen är inspirerade från klassiskt mode och modeller.Till detta tillkommer sedan färganalys där olika färger presenteras samt färgernas viktigasteegenskaper..

Syftet med vårt arbete var att göra en djupare kvalitativ undersökning av arbetet med språkutveckling hos flerspråkiga elever. Med hjälp av semistrukturerade intervjuer skapade vi oss en bild av skolans verksamhet och arbete med flerspråkighet på en mångkulturell skola och en icke mångkulturell skola. Våra slutsatser är att det krävs ett samarbete för att nå ett så effektivt arbetssätt som möjligt. Eleverna behöver flerspråkigt stöd och material samt uppmuntran för att vidare utvecklas språkligt och kunskapsmässigt. Vi kom fram till att en flerspråkig elev har tillgång till bättre resurser på en mångkulturell skola.

The aim of our study was to increase the awareness of the importance of implementation when a policy document is widely introduced. We wanted to examine how a political decision was implemented on different levels in a social care administration. We also wanted to examine the discretion related to the decision on different levels in the organisation, and if the work is followed up. The theoretical frame of reference in our study is Vedung?s implementation model and Lipsky?s theory about street-level bureaucrats.

The aim of this thesis is to examine how librarians and family historians experience their interaction at the reference encounter, what influences these views and how they affect the service; whether the family historians are aware of these views; which subject knowledge is needed and how this knowledge affects work performance; if there is a need for continuing education, and finally, if the family historians themselves can work as a resource for the library or the librarians? The thesis consists of three parts; in the first a theoretical frame was constructed around the concepts service, continuing education, subject knowledge and attitudes. Role theory was used as a theoretical background to show how expectations influence professional roles. The second part consists of the results given from the qualitative interviews with librarians and surveys with family historians that were performed. In the last part a discussion from the theoretical and empirical information earlier received was made.
