Syftet med denna studie är att visa och analysera hur olika musiklärare uppfattar och beskriver bedömning. Syftet är också att undersöka om och i så fall hur formativ bedömning är en del av musiklärarnas praktik. Metoden för datainsamling har varit kvalitativ och som underlag för uppsatsen har fyra intervjuer med ensemblelärare på gymnasiet genomförts. Resultatet av studien visar på stor variationTitle: "You almost need a focus area in school that is assessment...". A qualitative interview study on how ensemble teachers perceive and describe assessment. The purpose of this study is to show and analyse how different music teachers perceive and describe assessment. The purpose is also to examine whether and if so how formative assessment is part of the music teachers´ practice. The

Electronic Medical Records (EMR) is the vital and basic part of construction digitizing hospital. However the systems are well-known for their interoperability problems and a Swedish evaluation from 2010 concluded it to be the most frequent obstacle in workflow. We then wondered what techniques the organizations used to solve the problem to understand if the organizations use the right solution to

This thesis aim is to understand the ongoing regional development in South Sweden by focusing on how the regional enlargement is exposed in the discourse of Region Skåne ́s political elite. The material is based on eighteen interviews with the political elite and analyses a discursive transformation of the factors that could contribute to the political process of enlargement. These factors require

This thesis investigates the Hadronic Light by Light (HLL) scattering contribution to the muon g − 2, which is one of the most important low energy hadronic effects and consists mainly of the quark loop, the pion pole and the charged pion and kaon loops. In this work the charged pion loop has been investigated more closely. After reviewing the subject a preliminary introduction to Chiral Perturbat

This thesis concentrates on one of the indirect Dark Matter (DM) detection methods, namely through observations of Very High Energy (VHE) $\gamma$-ray signals from DM annihilation (or decay) in cosmic sources using the Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Technique (IACT). We discuss the particle physics and astrophysical aspects of those observations and perform several calculations which lead to an est

Marknadsmixen av McCarthy togs fram på 1960-­‐talet och är fortfarande en av de mest använda modellerna inom marknadsföringsteori. Emellertid har ekonomin som sådan bytt skepnad och marknaders spelregler ändrats. I synnerhet med Internets intåg som öppnat upp för digitala produkter och marknadsmixen ifrågasätts som lämplig modell för dessa. Utifrån stöd av teori, trender på den digitala marknaden

FlexiDrive är ett nystartat företag som är i behov av en strategi för effektiv marknadskommunikation. Syftet med uppsatsen är att identifiera vilka målgrupper som är mer benägna att använda sig av FlexiDrive, kartlägga hur man bäst når dessa kunder, samt föreslå en strategi för marknadskommunikation utifrån dessa resultat.

Self-critical people compared with those who self-reassure are at increased risk of depression and other forms of psychopathology. The purpose of this study was to translate two self-report scales – The Forms of self-criticizing/attacking and self-reassuring scale(FSCRS) and The Functions of self-criticizing/attacking scale (FSCS) – into Swedish, and to evaluate them psychometrically. The scales m

The transformational mode of sustainability science is concerned with generating actionable knowledge and practical solutions to complex sustainability challenges in order to facilitate a transition towards sustainability by strategizing transformational pathways. However, some scholars in the field believe that sustainability science lacks such capacity, since so far greater focus has been put on

Every year people are vacationing thousands of miles away from home. Low cost tickets and packaged trips have made exotic tourism more affordable. The mass tourism developed during the 50s and today, the travelling- and tourism industry is the third biggest industry in the world. Only the oil industry and the building sector are bigger. The biggest environmental load caused by tourism is the trans

The Great East Japan earthquake and tsunami hit coastal cities in Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima Prefectures of Tohoku Region devastating the energy supply system in the region. Following electricity outage and fuel shortages caused severe problems in the city of Kamaishi varying from lack of mobility, communication, heating to reduced health conditions. It is important to build resilience of commun

This thesis aims to analyze and discuss constructions of ethnicity, race and nationality in images of interior design. The material in the analysis consists of images and some text elements from three stories in the April 2011 issue of Swedish interior design magazine Elle Interiör. What makes these stories relevant for analysis is the way they point out certain objects or features in the image as

In recent times the increasing economic importance of electricity raised new interest in the study of its market. In particular the existence of an efficient derivative market where players can mitigate their risk exposure has been considered fundamental. In this work an analysis on the weak form of efficiency for the forwards market at Nord Pool is carried through taking the three most traded con

This essay attempts to distinguish differences in politeness in Japanese and English press releases, with a specific focus on TEPCO and BP in the aftermath of their respective environmental disasters. Through the use of discourse analysis, PR theory and the Brown and Levinson politeness model I find that the Japanese press releases favour negative politeness, whereas the English favour positive po

Vårt syfte är att undersöka tillförlitligheten i utdelnings- och vinstprognoser samt sambandet mellan prognosers verkliga utfall. Syftet är även att undersöka ifall det finns storleks- eller branschmässiga skillnader. Undersökningen är kvantitativ och utgår från Wilcoxon teckenrangtest. Uppsatsens teoretiska perspektiv utgår från tidigare forskning som berör bland annat utdelningspolicy, signal oc

Uppsatsen behandlar översättning från engelska till svenska av samhällsvetenskapliga begrepp i akademiska texter. Syftet är att undersöka översättares verksamhet vid begreppsöversättning, och hur de påverkas av olika diskursiva normer och av engelskans inflytande i den akademiska diskursen, för att få svar på frågan hur översättare kan hantera användningen av engelska begrepp i svenskan.
