Syftet med denna undersökning är att bidra med kunskap kring lärande och hur det är kopplat till självförtroende, självuppfattning och normer i undervisningen. Jag har valt att intervjua studenter från Musikhögskolan i Malmö, där jag för närvarande själv studerar till musiklärare. Studien utgår från studenternas perspektiv och är avgränsad till två huvudområden, undervisning i gehör och notläsninThe aim with this study is to try to contribute to the common knowledge about how learning is connected to self-confidence, and how norms and expectations influence a learning environment. I have interviewed students from Malmö Academy of Music (Sweden), where I am currently finishing my studies in music teacher education. The study assumes a student’s point of view, and is framed a round two sub

Den så kallade Malmö-revolten är en särartad händelse inom svensk historia. Den står i gränslandet mellan 1800- och 1900-talets tidstypiska konflikter. Med drag av båda tider så blir det ett av de viktiga skeendena i Malmös historia. Uppsatsen under strejken och Malmö-revolten 1890, utifrån Tillys teori om konfliktdriven politik. Primärmaterialet är protokoll och tidningsartiklar.

Using agenda setting theory, I have conducted a content analysis of British local newspaper articles to analyze reports regarding the Munich Agreement, which was signed September 30th, 1938. The theory is based on the assumption that media "controls" the reality which is shared with the readers. In a pre-digital society, local media outlets had far greater influence over the public agend

This essay deals with the so-called Islamic State´s propaganda paper Dabiq and how the use of history in it helps create historically based depictions of the Islamic State´s enemies. I have analysed the first four issues of Dabiq from 2014 and used Jakob Dahlbacka´s definition of religious use of history and prophetic use of history as an analytical frame. I have analysed both text and images in D

This essay explores the paradigm shift in linguistics taking place in the Soviet Union in 1950. Marrism was then the current paradigm which was based on a peculiar interpretation of marxism in lingustics. Unable to explain the new problems of Stalins postwar nationalistic turn it was subject to open discussion in Pravda. Using the theories of Thomas Kuhn the essay deals with the discussion taking

In November 2010 the largest outbreak in Sweden, and the second largest worldwide, of the parasite Cryptosporidium in public water supplies happened. The cause is still unknown, but the effects of the outbreak were that 27 000 inhabitants in the city of Östersund got infected. This study is a research of how other municipalities in Sweden are working with, preserving healthy drinking water, and ho

När petroleumföretag letar efter nya oljefyndigheter har de möjligheten att på själva borrsträngen fästa instrument som mäter olika egenskaper i berggrunden. En del instrument används för att bestämma hur stor andel mikroskopiska porer den sedimentära berggrunden består av och vilken vätska som ockuperar porerna. Porositeten ockuperas alltid av en vätska - formationsvatten, olja eller gas. Dessa vEvaluating reservoirs with alternating sequences of sand and shale meet the challenge of quantifying the effect from clay minerals. The clay minerals have an impact on logging tools and the resulting data. When not considering the effects, a formation evaluation will present incorrect results on e.g. porosity and water saturation leading to management decisions based on poor quality interpretation

Entrepreneurs in different countries and industries face many obstacles during their journey. It comes down to the entrepreneur to build strategies on how to overcome those obstacles. In this research, we focus on providing an in-depth analysis on the obstacles that Arab-immigrant entrepreneurs face in Sweden and how they overcome them. Immigrant entrepreneurship has had its fair share of research

Det här arbetet ämnar undersöka strömlinjeformade landformer i Löberöd med Lantmäteriets nya höjdmodell. Målet är att fastställa isens rörelseriktningar i området under den senaste deglaciationen. Med hjälp av höjdmodellen har drumlinernas ryggar markerats för att bestämma deras orientering i landskapet. Resultatet av detta visar tydligt tre olika isrörelseriktningar i området. RörelseriktningarnaThis work aims to investigate streamlined landforms at Löberöd by utilizing the latest elevation model produced by the Swedish national mapping agency (Lantmäteriet). The goal is to establish the ice flow direction in the area during the last deglaciation. Using the height model, the ridges of the drumlins have been marked to determine their orientation in the landscape. The data clearly suggests

This thesis focuses on participatory development discourse in Sweden’s support to civil society in developing countries, channelled through Swedish civil society organisations with which Sida has framework agreements. The thesis uses a modified version of Norman Fairclough’s critical discourse analysis, with an operationalisation of participatory development discourse that defines it as either for

With the increased efficiency of sequencing methods, large quantities of genomic information are quickly becoming available. To make use of this, methods are needed that can discern useful information from these vast data quantities. Such information could be the presence and position of specified genes with known properties. Due to their highly conserved sequences and their prevalence across all

Moderna elektronikprylar så som mobiltelefoner, datorer och surfplattor innehåller flera integrerade kretsar vars uppgifter varierar. En dator har till exempel en viss integrerad krets, kallad processor, vars uppgift är att uföra beräkningar och att driva operativsystemet. Samma dator innehåller även ytterliggare integrerade kretsar vars uppgifter kan vara att behandla grafik, ljud och trådlös komIn this thesis, InGaAs fins with vertical sidewalls consisting of {110} facets were epitaxially grown on InP(111)B substrates using metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy. A lithography patterned hydrogen silsesquixane growth mask was used to promote the formation of vertical {110} facets during the growth. The relative growth rate of the {111B} and {110} facets was controlled by the input V/III ratio i

Stärkt cirkulär ekonomi genom upphandling av rekonditionerade kontorsmöbler Att kommuner köper rekonditionerade och begagnade kontorsmöbler istället för nya har visat sig vara bra ur ett hållbarhetsperspektiv. Detta då det finns flera hållbarhetsfördelar med rekonditionerade möbler, främst i form av ekonomiska, miljömässiga och sociala vinster. Trots dessa vinster utgör inköp av rekonditioneradeAlthough reconditioned office furniture can implicate both environmental and monetary savings for contracting authorities, it seems relatively unusual for public authorities to purchase reconditioned furniture. The aim of this study is to investigate in what way public procurement of reconditioned furniture can be used as a strategy to strengthen the development towards a circular economy. To anal

Based on corpora and earlier studies, this paper mainly attempts to answer the question how constructions of restrictive which and that have developed in comparison to one another in American and British English news until today. Corpus queries are designed to match patterns of particular object and subject gap constructions, such as I like the ball that/which is green with subject gap and It is t

In recent years the emergence and increase of new psychoactive substances (NPS) has confounded countries worldwide. One of the main characteristics of NPS is its avoidance of legislation and the use of internet as a resource to discuss and trade the substances. These substances are considered a threat to the safety of individuals and the general public health. Due to these circumstances, different

During long time, France have had a history of representing right- and left wing parties in their presidential election. In the presidential election of 2017 this changed with a representation of centrist Emmanuel Macron and Extreme Right Marine Le Pen. Since Front National’s often named in the context of nationalist and populist extreme right parties, the aim of this thesis is to examine what it

The Swedish government has committed to a steep increase in renewable energy production, with the aim that Sweden's energy supply should become entirely renewable by 2040. One of the renewable energy forms that is currently under expansion is wind power, with approximately a third of existing installed capacity in the four northernmost provinces. In these provinces, however, the wind power dev
