Denna reflekterande text innehåller teorier och arbetsmetoder jag använt mig av för att kunna skriva en ironisk sångtext, att samarbeta med en extern musikkompositör och att göra en animerad musikvideo.Texten beskriver bakgrunden och mina mål samt förklarar begrepp och teorier som använts under arbetet. Teoridelen behandlar retorik (Hägg, 1998) (Hägg, 2002) och ironi (Booth, 1974) (Gustafsson, 2001), kontra- och synkroniseringspunkter (Chion, 1994) (Cook, 1981) och slutligen olika symbolers och ideograms betydelser (Liungman, 1974).Vidare presenteras problem som uppstått under arbetets gång och hur jag har valt att lösa dessa. Det ges även kortare beskrivningar av hur arbetsprocessen sett ut för att skriva en ironisk sångtext, att få en musikkompositör att förstå min vision utan att jag har kunskaper inom musikproduktion eller dess terminologi, och hur jag gått tillväga under modellering, animering och postproduktion.Texten avslutas med en diskussion där jag reflekterar över hur arbetet fungerat under projektets gång och vilka funderingar jag har över det slutliga resultatet. Slutsatsen är att ironi skapas med hjälp av att författaren lämnar ledtrådar i texten, känslan av konflikt kan skapas med hjälp av disharmoni och krockar mellan bildriktningar och att förberedelser och kommunikation är en av nycklarna till att delge utomstående en vision..

Title in original language: En undersökning av tre olika behandlingsmedels effekt påvegetabiliskt garvat läder för bokbandLanguage of text: SwedishNumber of pages: 32.

My purpose with this work is to find out how it relates with pre-schoolteatchers view about a quality in comparasion to control document, Lpfö-98, and with factors pre-schoolteatchers consider effects quality in pre-school describe pre-schoolteatchers view on that high quality is in pre- school.The investigation has been done by quality interviews with five pre- schoolteatchers working in pre- school. The results show that they do not make a difference between what are high quality and the factors that affect the possibility of creating high quality. Most important is qualified and engaged educationalist in the pre- school who who shows a good attitude towards the children, and where development and learning is central. The most decisive to a pre- schools quality are the personell who work there. A conditon to achieve high quality in pre- school is a head who knows the pre- school activity and its curriculum, and who takes active part in the activity, invites to discussions and offers pertinent competence development.According to the leading document Lpfö-98 you will achieve high quality by offering children rear and care.

Taligenkänning som verktyg vid direkttextning av tv-program har börjat användas på försök av några utländska tv-bolag. I examensarbetet undersöks möjligheten att använda svensk taligenkänning för att direkttexta tv-program på Sveriges Television. Ett av de största hindren för talbaserad direkttextning är att den kognitiva belastningen ökar vidsamtidigt lyssnande, talande, och skrivande. Dessa tre moment måste kunna utföras samtidigt av textaren. Undersökningar visade att det borde vara fullt möjligt att arbeta på detta sätt.

This two year masters thesis is written in the scientific field of library- and information science. The purpose of the study is to investigate the collaboration between teachers and librarians in different types of school library organisations. Two school libraries with only the school as a target group, two integrated public- and school libraries, one school library division and one public library that provides the school with school library services has been studied. The study takes place in Uppland.The theoretical framework used is based on Montiel-Overall and her four models of collaboration: coordina-tion, cooperation, integrated instruction and integrated curriculum. The first research question focuses on the col-laboration between teachers and librarians based on each of the TLC-models.

Syftet med studien var att undersöka vilka läsförståelsestrategier elever använde sig av när de skulle förstå olika textgenrer. För att undersöka vilka strategier som elever i årskurs tre använde när de läste olika slags textgenrer användes tre olika texter, en skönlitterär text, en faktatext och en instruktionstext.Vi använde oss av kvalitativa intervjuer för att ta reda på vilka strategier eleverna använde när de skulle förstå innehållet i en text.Resultatet i studien visade att elever använde olika strategier när de skulle förstå olika slags texter. Resultatet tydde även på att elever var medvetna om fler strategier än vad de använde under våra intervjuer. Dessa strategier var alternativa sätt som eleverna kunde använda om de fick problem med texten. Det kunde till exempel vara svåra ord som eleverna behövde identifiera.Resultatet visade på att elever främst använde strategin att nyttja minnet när de försökte förstå olika slags texter.

A film can attract all kinds of emotions and moods of the audience through its audiovisual communications and cinematic expression, in which music plays a significant role in both understanding and interpretation of film content.It is interesting to explore the musical significance and the emotional aspect of the film out of a media and communications perspective and visual communications perspective because it?s a subject that belongs to the communications of scientific discipline as film is a media text which is working both as communicative and as audio-visual medium with its expressive aspects.The purpose of this bachelor?s paper is to increase and deepen the understanding of music's function and significant role in context with its reinforcing sense of visual expression in film. More specifically, it aims to explore the musical value of the expressive aspect of the media text in form of film musical Les Misérables (2012), which has been transmedialised from the novel of the same name, referring to the sound, music and song in relation to the film's visual expression.The research questions are at the core of the essay study: "how is music used to reinforce the cinematic visual expression?" and "how can music signify the narrative and highlight the emotional aspect of the film?" The theoretical framework is based on some of the key scholars assumptions such as Michel Chion (1994) and Claudia Gorbman (1987), who share the same theoretical views that the soundtrack seems powerful when it expresses its participation in a scene?s emotional moods as the music follows the scene?s rhythm, the image?s flow and contributes emotional and musical codes of emotions and expressions. According to Chion sound and image interact together to tell a story where sound enrich the image with expressive and informative values.

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between sleep, photoperiod, milk yield and hormones connected to milk formation. Variations of prolactin (PRL) and Insulin-Like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) in plasma were measured during two different light programs. The light programs consisted of either 24 hours of light (L24:D0) or four hours of light and 20 hours of darkness (L4:D20). Five cows of the Swedish Red breed were used in a cross-over experiment and each light program consisted of five days. Milk yield was measured at every milking and milk samples were analyzed with regard to fat, lactose and protein.

The BA thesis Front Yard Gardens ? spatiality, design elements, expression and social aspects is a summary of the entrance and front yard garden phenomenon ? where the entrance is the set design and the designer is the director. The thesis touches the social context of which entrances have been and still are shaped. The various appearance of the entrance and front yard gardens throughout the history, starting with the first entrance by the edge of the wood and coming up to the front yard gardens of today, is described. It touches the present day through an analysis of some entrances and front yard gardens of modern residential areas.

The attacks of September 11, 2001 have done more to focus attention on the conjunction of religion and conflict than any other event in recent history. Although much international research has focused since then on the role of Islam, religiously inspired violence is also found in countries as diverse as Thailand, Burma, or Sri Lanka, where Buddhism plays a central role. This paper addresses how these realities are reflected in two Swedish high school textbooks on religion. The thesis calls into question the manner in which Buddhism is presented in schoolbooks as the most probable candidate to be a conflict-free religion.Using Fairclough?s discourse analysis theoretical framework and Hellspong?s structural analysis, the thesis critically examines the relationship between text, the discourse practice in which text is produced and the wider social practices.

The aim of this study was to examine the current and historic mercury(Hg) load of the lake Storjuktan due to its recent exposure to a local potential source of Hg in form of the Sulphide mine Blaikengruvan(2006) and an earlier potential sources of Hg-load, the damming of the lake(1960s). Sediments were extracted using a HTH-sampler, freeze-dried, and analyzed for tot-Hg, LOI and activity of 210Pb and compared to samples extracted prior to the opening of the mine(2006). Constant initial concentration (CIC)-dating model was used for dating the samples. Low levels of Hg (100ng/g) were found throughout the lakes sediment. The highest levels of Hg(220ng/g) was detected at a depth of 4-5cm dating back to the mid 1970:s, suggesting that increased levels of atmospheric Hg rather than damming of the lake has caused the increase of Hg.

Background. With the mental health care reform 1995, the long-term mentally ill patients were meant to be integrated in the society. Instead, they became ?deported? to mental health care. Aim.

The aim of this bachelor thesis has been to investigate some of the materials present in and onprinted papers which might be suitable for analysis. A brief history of paper making and somepigments were studied after which the theory of some of the available methods for technicalanalysis were summarized. Two works of art on paper were chosen for a closer examination,both are woodblock prints but of different composition and origin. The investigation wasmade to exemplify some of the common techniques applied on works of art. There were twoaims in these examinations.

Arbetet är den romantext/projektarbete som jag arbetat med under Kreativt skrivande IV. Projektarbetet är en ungdomsroman, en dystopi i ett framtida samhälle där nästan alla kvinnor blivit infertila efter en pandemi. Därför måste alla 14-åriga flickor genomgå en undersökning för att se om de kan bli Barnaföderskor. Till själva projektarbetet hör även en essä där jag diskuterar dystopins natur..
