Current technology offers many possibilities for remotecommunication. Nevertheless, people with cognitive and communicativedisabilities have limited access to common communication technology like textmessaging via a mobile phone. This study is part of the project Text messagingwith picture symbols - a possibility for AAC users and people with cognitiveimpairments. Semi structured interviews were used to investigate three menand four women?s experiences of using Windows mobiles with adaptedfunctions for text messaging.

Syfte: Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka i vilken utsträckning som Halmstads kommun har inkluderat boendesegregationsfrågan i sin översiktplanering, samt om hanterandet av frågan i samband med den fysiska planeringen har genererat goda förutsättningar för att implementera eventuellt förekommande integrationsmål. Metod: Samtalsintervjuer med fem tjänstemän och fem politiker för att studera hanterandet av integrationsfrågan i beredningen och verkställandet av den kommunövergripande översiktsplanen för Halmstads kommun från år 2000. Metoden består också av beskrivande idéanalys av översiktsplanen för att kunna avgöra dess tydlighet och giltighet avseende integrationsfrågan på bostadsmarknaden i Halmstad.Resultat: Det har kunnat påvisas att Halmstads kommun har angett målet att motverka segregation i översiktsplanen, men det har samtidigt funnits stora problem som försvårat implementeringen av detta mål och styrningen av bostadsmarknaden mot integration. Under beredningsfasen förelåg det problem med att inkludera integrationsfrågan då man utgick från en traditionell syn på samhällsplanering som innefattade andra värden är integration. Framför allt dominerade mer tekniska värden under beredningen av planen.Under beslutsfasen försvårades implementeringen av att översiktsplanen varken var tillräcklig tydlig eller giltigt för att kunna fungera som vägledning för de implementerande organen.

Syftet med detta examensarbete är att undersöka vilka didaktiska ställningstaganden verksamma gymnasiepedagoger gör när det gäller relationen mellan litteratur- och språkhistorieundervisningen i svenska B och svenska som andraspråk B. Det material som vi analyserar bygger på åtta kvalitativa intervjuer med yrkesverksamma svensklärare vid två gymnasieskolor i sydvästra Skåne. Resultatet som vi kommit fram till är att endast ett fåtal av våra lärarinformanter integrerar litteratur- och språkhistoria. Vår slutsats är att elevernas behov av struktur i undervisningen samt lärarnas elevorienterade synsätt styr hur lärarna väljer att arbeta..

The companies of today compete about the consumers? attention. In a society where the speed is increasing and the trends are constantly changing the marketing of today will soon be obsolete. This is something that is clearer in the fashion business where the consumers always are looking for news at lower costs. It?s no longer an economical question to be able to wear the latest fashion trends, the availability of cheap fashion clothes is constantly increasing.

This case study examines how upper secondary schools in a municipality in the northern parts of Sweden structure their special pedagogy with students who have ADHD and dyslexia, students? and parents? experiences of this, and what regulates the schools management in this particular aspect.

This paper examines how debt cancellation, given under the HIPC-initiative, has affected corruption over the period 2000-2006. The examination is foremost interesting due to earlier research showing that high corruption leads to unequal distribution of economic resources. This, combined with the objective of the HIPC initiative to reduce poverty, indicates that combating corruption must be successful in order to fulfill the goals of the initiative. A linear regression shows that countries that have benefited from the HIPC-initiative indeed have a lower corruption than other countries. A panel-data analysis shows on the other hand that no effect on corruption due to debt cancellation or reforms undertaken in the program can be confirmed..

The Mission at ÅF Industry in Norrkoping was about optimizing bulk data handling while importing process tag types from their construction database into the Process Controlled System of type Siemens PCS7.I found three different methods to solve the task. Two of them were using different software from Siemens under the premise that the report from the database was corrected as needed. The third variant was manually creating the circuits. All methods worked out fine but there were times when one was better than another.To solve this task I had access to all software presented in chapter 2 ?Programvara? (=Software).

Beslutsfattning om militära våldsmedel varierar med en nations civil-militära mönster. Genom att teoretiskt använda maktbegreppet för att beskriva vilka normativa styrprinciper som formar den civil-militära relationen kan den också beskrivas. Teorin appliceras på Falklandskonflikten och Ubåtsincidenterna i Sverige under tidigt 80-tal. Effekterna som undersöks är tid och uppfattning om det strategiska målet som operationen syftar till.  Syftet med uppsatsen har varit att undersöka hur olika typer av relationer mellan civila makthavare och den militära organisationen påverkar utformningen av beslut om militärt våld.

The thesis objective was to study the partnership between the municipality of Gothenburg and three nonprofit organizations concerning the mobile EU-citizens. The study examines how the EU-enlargement affected Sweden and eventually the municipality of Gothenburg, and how Gothenburg responded to the new situation regarding the target group. The thesis contains one case study and the empirical data are based on semi structured interviews with politicians and officials from both the public- and the nonprofit sector. The results were screened with New Institutional Theory, Resource Dependence Theory and Decision Making Theory: Rule Following. The theories were used to locate any type of isomorphism, resource dependence and rule following in the partnership.

I min uppsats diskuterar jag identiteter som situationella. Specifikt problematiserar jag användandet av kategoriseringar som grundar sig på etnicitet. Jag diskuterar även de Offer- och Förövaridentiteter jag kunnat finna i mina informanters berättelser om deras liv och livssituation.Först kommer det inledande kapitel där jag presenterar mitt syfte med uppsatsen och beskriver mina teoretiska utgångspunkter, vilka är; etnicitet, Vi och De andra, maktperspektiv, kategoriseringars konsekvenser, ?hen?, Förövar- och Offeridentitet och subjektskonstruktioner. I det första kapitlet beskriver jag även mina metodiska utgångspunkter och tillvägagångssätt.

Abstract The amount of evil that we can see in our world might make the thought of a kind and caring God as its creator paradoxical. This is what is generally called the problem of evil and the topic of this study. This is a litterary study which is based on qualitative analysis and hermeneutics as our method. We have chosen to research this problem with the emphasis on two different theodices. One of these theodices is written by John Hick and the other by C.S Lewis.
