När allt fler produkter blir bärbara, t ex handdatorer och mobiltelefoner, innebär det även att dessa har blivit mindre. Ytan där text och liknande presenteras blir då även den mer begränsad. Läsning kan ses som en komplex kognitiv process med många ingående delar, bland annat tolkning, förståelse och ögats fysiska funktion. Dessa ingående processer begränsas när ytan texten presenteras på är mycket liten. För att motverka detta har alternativa sätt att presentera text på tagits fram, så kallad dynamisk textpresentation.

The aim of the study was to examine the reading ability of adultswith intellectual and/or communicative disabilities. The group adults withintellectual and/or communicative disabilities consisted of 66 individuals.One control group consisting of 36 children aged 7 to 12 years and onereference group consisting of 14 adults were used. Participants were given anumber of language and reading related tests. Adults with intellectual and/orcommunicative disabilities had significantly lower results than the adultreference group regarding all tests and significantly lower results than thechild control group regarding phonological processing. There was nodifference between adults with intellectual and/or communicative disabilitiesand the child comparison group regarding word decoding and readingcomprehension.

Under min utbildning till lärare i svenska som andraspråk kom jag i kontaktmed en undersökning som hävdade att flerspråkiga elevers texter iblandupplevs som tunna därför att de beskrivande partierna är få, och delvisinnehållsligt annorlunda jämfört med de beskrivande partierna i enspråkigaelevers texter.I scheman över utvecklingsgången i ett andraspråk framstår mängdenadjektiv i elevernas språk som en parameter med vilken man kan avläsa hurlångt eleverna kommit i sin språkutveckling. Jag ville därför undersöka omdet är bristen på adjektiv som gör att de flerspråkiga eleverna har färre ochmer glest spridda beskrivande partier i sina texter, vilket i så fall skullekunnat avhjälpas med adekvat undervisning om adjektivens betydelse fören text.Resultatet av min undersökning visar på, att det för de flerspråkigaelevernas del inte tycks vara så att adjektiven saknas i ordförrådet. Det ärvidare tveksamt om vi enbart med ledning av antalet adjektiv i en text kanavgöra hur tunn texten är.Min undersökning visar dock på ganska stora skillnader i andelenadjektiv i förhållande till antalet löpord i texten, jämfört med elevtexterskrivna på 1970- talet, vilket kan tyda på att det antingen har hänt någotmed det svenska skriftspråket eller, att det har hänt något med de svenskagymnasisterna..

Träning och hälsa har under senare år fått ett allt starkare fotfäste på sociala medier, inte minst på sociala plattformar såsom Facebook och Instagram. Det blir allt vanligare att man efter, till exempel, en löparrunda eller ett gympass väljer att dela med sig av sin träningserfarenhet på dessa plattformar i form av bilder, text och data från olika träningsapplikationer.Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka förhållandet mellan sändare och mottagare av träningsrelaterade statusuppdateringar på Facebook, i synnerhet när det gäller de båda parternas olika tolkningar av statusuppdateringen. För att undersöka detta genomfördes dels en enkätundersökning samt en kvalitativ gruppstudie. Gruppstudien gick ut på att låta en mindre grupp använda det sociala nätverket Facebook som forum för att posta träningsrelaterade inlägg samt reflektera över de andra deltagarnas inlägg.Resultaten visar att det finns en tydlig skillnad mellan hur träningsrelaterade statusuppdateringar mottas i det allmänna flödet gentemot i en sluten grupp på Facebook. Vilken typ av data träningsrelaterade inlägg innehåller visade sig också ha en betydande roll för hur de mottas.

By means of text creation I approach, reflect upon and try a number of aspects of my own professional existence as a joker in forum theatre and as a forum play pedagogue.This essay is structured like the days of a week and it specifically relates three problematic situations: first, a Monday containing a case of discrimination during the performance, then, a glimpse from a Wednesday when I failed to use the time with enough consideration of our common work and, finally, a Thursday when I was professionally questioned.These three situations are described thoroughly and then they are tried by me. This is carried out partly by reasoning, partly by using for example sociological, pedagogical and above all philosophical texts in order to widen my understanding of my existence as joker and forum play pedagogue. When writing this essay I really realized the importance of taking the reactions of the spec-tators into consideration. I have had the opportunity to develop thoughts about the way in which reflection is created and thoughts about different layers of reflection. I have also pondered over the way in which I distinguish between forum play and therapy as a forum play pedagogue.

Barren rearing environment and early weaning of piglets can lead to a high level of distress, behavioural disturbances and reduction in weight gain. The main aim of this thesis was to study the effects of potential enrichment objects on piglet?s behaviour and weight gain during the pre- and post-weaning period. The second aim was to examine what type of object stimulated the highest frequency of interaction. The study was carried out at the Swedish Livestock Research Centre in Lövsta where a batch of litters from 10 first-parity Yorkshire sows were used.

The aim of this study is to analyze the discussion on the publication of twelve caricatures of the prophet Muhammad, in two Swedish newspapers ? Dagens Nyheter and Sydsvenska Dagbladet. The caricatures were originally published in the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten, in September 2005. Even though the violent protests and attacks against Danish interests gained major media attention in Sweden few ? if any ? major Swedish newspapers published the caricatures.Using Fairclough?s Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA), a theory and a method that critically examines the relationship between text, the discourse practice in which text is produced and consumed, and the wider social practice, this study examines why Swedish newspapers chose not to publish any caricatures.The study concludes that the relationship between orders of discourse continuously affect, and is also affected by, Swedish media content.

Stockholms vattenskärning AB in Kungsängen has through the acquisition of a company begun to design and produce aircraft heaters whose origin is early 1970s which follows a high inefficiency in terms of energy consumption and size.The aircraft heater, which is sold worldwide, serves its purpose for customer satisfaction and has done so ever since it was developed in the 70s.Stockholms vattenskärning AB is now investigating the possibility in making the aircraft heaters more efficient, both in terms of energy consumption but also on a more efficient design with the belief that it would lead them to an edge in the market. The aircraft heater consists of several main components whose function altogether is to keep passenger aircrafts warm while they are on the ground.This project has been limited to the further development of the heat exchanger package which accounts for the conversion of the hot medium to the fresh air being carried in to the aircraft cabin. Work has been divided into different phases in order to create a better understanding of the project range and to make it easier to divide the various elements in the time available, 10 weeks. These phases are literature review, situation analysis, concept generation, CAD, concept comparison and writing reports.After the initial literature review was made, a fundamental theory was written which is essential in understanding the remaining parts of the project.With the theoretical part as support, measurements and calculations were made on the current heat exchange package in a situation analysis to ensure its operation and efficiency.In the concept generation phase, the collected facts from the literature review was used as the basis for creating a matrix. The purpose of the matrix was to indicate the two most suitable types of heat exchangers to develop four new concepts out of.In the CAD phase the four concepts was drawn up and then described with text and images.The last phase is the concept comparison where a concept selection matrix is used to function as a decision basis for further production at Stockholms vattenskärning AB. The four concepts have been developed based on the current heat exchanger and is gradually changed into a design of a cross-flow heat exchanger constructed out of stainless sections. The purpose of this is to have gradual upgrading of the heat exchanger as an option, in order not to saturate the market..

Dag Wellander: Meaning ? memory: oblivion. A reading of Birgitta Trotzig?s The mud kings daughter. Master of Arts paper.

To be a farmer and have suckler cows is a difficult combination especially considering the economy. Because of the increased feed costs, the margins have become tighter. The meat price from beef cattle has increased a little when this text is written (spring, 2008), but not so much that it covers the cost for feed etc. I have a small suckler cow production on approximately 30 cows and 2 bulls plus followers as a part-time business. The herd is tied in the old dairy stable built in the late seventies.

The purpose of this study has been to create a better understading of how face?to?face activities in course´s impacts on the experience of interaction within a course.More specifically, the study puts the student'?s perception of how mandatory face?to?face activities affect and are affected by the interaction in focus. This is done by the following research questions. What affects the student'?s perception of face?to?face activities? Which interaction dimension affects the factors that influence students perception of the activities? Which interaction dimension is influenced by the student'?s perception of the activities?The theoretical base is Wagner'?s (1994) three types of interaction and Andersson´s(2003) theory of interaction dimensions.

This study aimed to evaluate the levels of formaldehyde and organic acids that can build up within enclosed spaces. Another goal was to compare two types of paints that can be used as coating barriers within showcases and in turn compare them to the modern, and by many highly recommended, material of Marveseal®. A low volatile waterborne alkyd/acrylate paint and a two component polyurethane paint was compared to Marveseal® in two series of experiments. One series measured the level of formaldehyde, and thus the effectiveness of the three chosen barriers, and the other series measured the level of volatile organic acids, both the acids emitted from the paint itself, and that of the wood. One box in each series were not treated at all and was used as a reference.The fact that different types of materials emit volatile organic compounds have long been known.
