For a long period of time there have been discussions about the need to modernize, to keep up with the changes in our society. The schools as a result have to keep up and adapt in order for the education to be up-to-date. This includes the technological developments. Many steps have been taken and mighty sums have been invested in order to keep up the pace ? but are there any consequences from these kinds of investments? In this report I?m going to take a closer look on a recent addition to this phenomenon that were installed by means of a top-down approach and study the teachers and how they have adapted and view the change in their environment ? namely the newly installed interactive writing-boards.The questions I will study include how the teachers express their view about the installation of the interactive writing-boards.

Title: Defending one's origin ? a musical journey to Transylvania.A journey to the Transylvanian part of Romania was pursued with the intent to investigate the cultural aspects of the historically and politically rooted set of relations between the Hungarian peaking minority and the majority of the population, the Romanian speaking group. Music pedagogical ambitions within the two cultures were used as reflections of these phenomena. In trying to shed light on my questions and extract the relations between the dominating and the dominated in this specific cultural and social context I have used the central themes of Bourdieu ? capital, habitus and field.

The purpose of this study is to make a qualitative evaluation of the MTFC-program (Multidimensional Treatment Foster Care) on the basis of six youth´s experiences of the program. The study will investigate what the youth experienced as positive and negative about the program as well as finding out what has helped them or inhibited them from the aim of getting out of their criminal lifestyle. A secondary purpose of this study is to make the youth´s voices heard in the research world. The research question is: Which factors in the MTFC-program have helped or inhibited the youth towards the aim of getting out of their criminal lifestyle? For this purpose, a qualitative research method has been used where semistructured interviews have been performed on six youth who have gone through the MTFC-program.

Förändringar i europeisk lagstiftning har gett producenten ett ansvar för återvinning av använda förpackningar. Den nya lagstiftningen skall vara implementerad i de nationella lagarna senast den 30 juni 1996. Inga förpackningar får om fem år introduceras på marknaden om det inte finns ett uppbyggt återvinningssystem. Dessutom ställer lagstiftningen krav på att mängd förpackningsmaterial som används skall minimeras, så att inga förpackningar i framtiden hamnar i deponi.Ett sätt att uppfylla lagstiftningen är att ersätta engångsförpackningar med returförpackningar av olika slag. Denna uppsats är resultatet av ett uppdrag från Wascator, vars syfte var att undersöka om det är ekonomiskt möjligt och miljömässigt intressant att införa ett system där förpackningar går i retur vid distribution av kommersiella tvättmaskiner.

The unique ability of wheat to produce leavened bread is mainly due to the gluten proteins present. As consumers are more and more attracted to bread with high fibre content the use of wheat gluten will also increase in order to obtain bread with good volume and appetizing characteristics. Air-classification is a technological method used to separate particles by size and shape by means of air-streams into two fractions, fine and coarse. When used on wheat flour it is known to alter the flour composition in the fractions obtained compared to the original flour. This method is not widely used in the milling industry but could possibly be of interest if protein rich fractions with favorable protein quality can be produced.

Den här uppsatsen låter sex unga journalister komma till tals med avseende på hur de tänker kring förhållandena på arbetsmarknaden. Syftet är att med hjälp av en kvalitativ intervjustudie belysa hur unga journalister tänker kring sin karriär, framtid och livet vid sidan av yrket.Arbetsgivarna inom mediebranschen tillhör dem som i störst utsträckning kringgår lagen om anställningsskydd (LAS). Det innebär att många journalisters första arbetslivserfarenheter består av vikariat och tillfälliga anställningar. Detta resulterar i ett kringflackande liv som för med sig konsekvenser på det privata planet.De sex intervjupersonerna har olika erfarenheter av hur det är att komma ut i arbetslivet från en journalistutbildning. En viktig slutsats från studien är att de sex intervjupersonerna på olika sätt fått anpassa sina liv efter branschens krav på flexibilitet, tillgänglighet och rörlighet.

This thesis is basically an attempt to discuss the intrinsic intersubjective nature of the so-called ideal sciences, i.e. geometry or arithmetic. Based upon a thorough analysis of Husserls The Origin of Geometry and Derridas Edmund Husserl's Origin of Geometry: an Introduction this thesis takes geometry as an example of an ideal science. The main question of the thesis is how an ideal science or object is constituted. The thesis consist of two main chapters - ?Geometry and Historicity? and ?Language?- and a concluding discussion.

Vi har i vår uppsats utfört våra empiriska studier vid Medicinska fakulteten på Institutionen för hälsa, vård och samhälle. Vi har här valt att undersöka vi-känslan inom organisationen. I Medicinska fakultetens kommunikationsplan står det nämligen att organisationen strävar mot att stärka vi-känslan. Vi har även tidigare i olika företagssammanhang stött på begreppet vi-känsla, men begreppet utvecklas sällan vidare i akademisk litteratur. Därför har vi med vår undersökning velat ta reda på vilka faktorer som inverkar på vi-känslan och hur olika internkommunikativa strategier kan utvecklas för att stärka vi-känslan inom organisationen.

Most companies and organizations today depend on technology connected to the Internet. Schools and offices have therefore been providing computers, phones and other technology to the employees. The recent technological development and decline in prices for technology have contributed to making these products a part of everyday life for most people. This has made it very common for employees and students to bring their own devices into school and workplaces.The aim of this study is to define what "Bring your own device" means for Swedish companies and organizations and how it has been implemented in those. The aim is not mainly to generalize to all Swedish companies but create an understanding how the trend is used to provide a basis for continued research in this area.

2005 was the year that all of the 25 member states in the European Union were to ratify the treaty of a constitution for Europe. The year did, however, offer a series of unexpected and slightly shocking events as both France and the Netherlands voted no to the constitution. Because of this the already planned referendums across many of the other member states were either postponed indefinately or the debates simply died down. The fact that two of the most pro-EU countries didn?t ratify the constitution was not only something that certainly raised the question of how future referendums in other, more EU-negative, states would turn out, but it could also be seen as harsh criticism against the EU as a whole.This is a theory consuming study, as it uses different theories of integration to explain the development of the EU, which in turn supports and strengthens the essay's conclusion.

The purpose behind our study was to analyze people who were born in the 1940s' reflections on life after the age of 60, as well as examining which strategies they had before retirement. The study built on the themes; leisure pursuit and social networks,retirement, life after the age of 60, the future care and the care needs and its mediums. These themes have also provided the base for our interview guide. In order to answer our aims and issues we chose to use a qualitative method. We have interviewed eight people born in the 1940s in order to provide a varied picture of their reflections and strategies for the future.

The purpose of the present essay, as part of the project Self esteem and Life circumstances among teenagers, was to investigate the rate of both deliberate self-harm (DSH) and risk behaviour related to eating disorders in 14-year-old swedish adolescents, gender differences in DSH, and possible correlations between DSH and risk behaviours related to eating disorder. In addition, the effects of expressive writing (Pennebaker & Beall, 1986) on DSH and risk behaviours related to eating disorders were investigated. Data from two pilot studies are included. In total, 198 14-year-olds from four different schools in southern Sweden participated. For the purpose of measuring the rate of DSH, a simplified version of Gratz's (2001) Deliberate Self-Harm Inventory (DSHI) was used.

I början av förra sekelskiftet hade Iran sitt möte med moderniteten vilket genererade en samhällomvandling. År 1921 tog shahen makten, som med influenser från väst, strävade efter att modernisera landet. Detta formulerades i ett nationsprojekt där kvinnan kom att konstitueras som representant för det moderna. Den konservativa religiösa eliten, liksom stora delar av befolkningen vände sig starkt emot inflytandet av den västerländska kulturen och shahens diktatur, vilket utmynnade i revolutionen 1979. Detta blev starten på ett nytt nationsprojekt, där kvinnor åter blev ett verktyg i nationsbyggandet, denna gång som symbol för en islamisering av samhället.

Examensarbetet behandlar kvalitetsproblem som kan hänföras till tillverkning, hantering och montering av kassettätningar System 500. Det har visat sig att orsakerna till läckande tätningar ofta har varit föroreningar inuti tätningarna, ofullständigt monterad fjäder, tryckmärken och skador på tätningseggen, repor på metalldelar och skägg efter formpressning. Som en avgränsning i examensarbetet har de två sistnämnda orsakerna inte behandlats. Repor på metalldelar har uppkommit hos underleverantörer. Att minska förekomsten av skägg arbetas det redan på från annat håll.Problemet med fjädern har varit att vara säker på att den finns med och att den ligger rätt inuti tätningen.
