Syftet med mitt examensarbete är att undersöka musikens betydelse för förskolebarnens allmänna utveckling. Med intervjuer och observationer på fyra förskolor i Skåne län har jag undersökt vilken betydelse pedagogerna anser att musiken har för förskolebarnens allmänna utveckling, hur de använder musiken i sitt arbete, samt i vilket syfte. Sammanfattningsvis tyder mina resultat på att musik har stor betydelse för barnens utveckling såväl språkligt som motoriskt. Under intervjuerna framkom att pedagogerna avsiktligt använder musiken både som metod och som verktyg för att stimulera utvecklingen av framförallt språk och motorik. En annan viktig anledning till att använda musik i förskolan, är att den skapar glädje och gemenskap i barngruppen.

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether social counselling via chat conversations could meet the criteria for a professional conversation, and how the six social workers who were interviewed felt that it had affected the profession and the clients who are seeking their help.Communication, professionality, power, roles and regions are the key topics of this study. A hermeneutic approach has not only influenced the interviews but also the content analysis that was used to encode the results.The interviews revealed that the chat conversations was a successful tool but not entirely without difficulties. The initial contact making between the client and the social worker favours the client, since she/he remains anonymous and that was the main advantage of the method. The biggest concern however was that in the anonymity it is not possible to report cases that the social worker are obligated to. The changing of forum does not necessarily affect the professionality but due to the faceless chat conversation an entire dimension of communication disappears because the loss of body language.

The report descripbs how a diplexer for a hybrid analog/digital filterbank has been constructed and tested. A diplexer divides the frequency band into two different bands that do not who doesn't overlapp each other. The sampling rate for the two ADC:s is 80 Msps, and therefore it is advantage to have zero at 80 MHz. The reason for this is that a proposed class of hybrid filterbanks with very good quality requires a zero at or close the sampling frequency to work well. The diplexer was made in three versions.
