Teachers have the potential to be active agents in language policy and planning (LPP) processes when designing lessons or managing linguistic resources in their classrooms. A key consideration, then, is to guide pre-service educators towards an understanding of LPP principles and how they can be applied in practice. The present study documents an interactive LPP roleplay project that was designed
Modern office buildings have high energy savings potential and potential for indoor climate improvements. During the nineties many office buildings with glass facades were built, in several cases with double skin glass facades. The advantages of buildings with double skin facades (compared with single skin glazed ones) are considered to be the reduced heating and cooling demand, the increased soun
Background. No studies have been found regarding beliefs about health and illness in patients with diabetic foot ulcers investigated from a patient perspective. Beliefs might affect self-care and health. Aim. To explore beliefs about health and illness among patients with severe diabetic foot lesions that might affect self-care practice and care-seeking behaviour. Method. The study design was ex
Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet är att utifrån studenters livsberättelser, få kunskap om och förståelse för hur de upplever och hanterar sjuksköterskeutbildningens olika delar med särskilt fokus på spänningsfälten mellan: yrkesexamen ? akademisk examen, högskoleförlagd utbildning ? verksamhetsförlagd utbildning samt huvudämnet omvårdnad ? stödämnet medicinsk vetenskap. Syftet är vidare att få kThe aim of this study is to gain knowledge and understanding of how nursing students experience and manage the different parts of the education. A particular focus is set on the tension between a professional degree and an academic degree, between theoretical and clinical studies, and between the subjects nursing and medical science. Furthermore, the aim is to gain knowledge and understanding of a
Popular Abstract in English N/AAquatic systems worldwide receive large amounts of organic carbon from terrestrial sources. This ‘allochthonous’ organic carbon (AlloOC) affects critical physical and chemical properties of freshwater ecosystems, with consequences for food web structures and exchange of greenhouse gases with the atmosphere. In the boreal region, loadings of AlloOC are particularly high due to leaching from huge or
Language policy and planning (LPP) is one of the fastest growing sub-disciplines of applied linguistics. This book is the first volume that is exclusively devoted to research methods in language policy. As in other areas of applied linguistics, LPP scholars have drawn upon an array of research methods from a range of disciplines. This book is designed as a practical roadmap for those methods. Each
Purpose: This master thesis aims to understand how the development of the leading FM companies will influence upon the service strategy in Crawford Sweden. Design/approach: Literature review of published work concerning FM along with interviews with a range of people within Crawford and in the FM business. Research limitations: Owing to constraint of time, the authors have had to make some delimit
Many systems within the IT infrastructure have a Command Line Interface (CLI) for configuration changes. Some of these systems may expose a Configuration Management interface over a web service but this web service usually only exposes a fraction of the configuration possibilities in a CLI. Thus it would be of great help to investigate how a framework for automated CLI discovery can be developed,
The thesis work was given on the request from ÅR Carton to produce a circuit able to measure current, voltage, frequency and the phase shift between the current and voltage in a one turn coil. The measured data was also to be sent to a computer for later use in analyzing the data. The most important question was which method to use to measure the current in the coil, suggested alternatives were be
The main research problem in this thesis is the lack of a holistic understanding of how neo-patrimonialism, colonial legacies, decentralisation, illiberal peace-building and the revitalisation of traditional reconciliation practices have affected conflict, peace and development in North Maluku Province (NMP). This is important to study, given the negative impacts inherent in the conflict-developme
Agile software development promotes process adaptability throughout the life cycle of a project. A project is often broken down into smaller tasks and each task involves a cross-functional team working with all functions. There are many different agile methods, which focus on different aspects of the software development life cycle. Two of these agile methods are Kanban and Scrum, which focus on m
This is a thesis which describes a process for realizing a SCADA system using Codesys and iX developer, after a given function description. This is followed by an investigation about the Modbus protocol. That is applied to do the communication possible between the different parts in the system. The report includes a simple part of theory. This treats concepts like SCADA, PLC, I/O-devices, communic
The purpose of this work is to expand the toolbox of speech language pathologists and give them the ability to redesign a patient’s voice to a healthier sounding one, thereby giving the patient a target voice to strive towards. A modified voice is generated by applying a finite impulse response (FIR) filter, altering the spectrum of the patient’s voice. In order to facilitate the filter design pro
The EU has recently shifted its trade policy from multilateralism to bilateralism, and this has highly affected Turkey via the existing trade regime with the EU. The aim of this dissertation is to analyse the reactions of current actors in Turkey to the EU’s increasing FTAs with third countries in the EU-Turkey trade regime context. To do this, a theoretical framework has been established by using
Title: Chillchain for cut flowers ? how the distribution works. Author: Anna-Maja Svarén, student at Lund Institute of Technology, mechanical engineering. Supervisors: Annika Olsson, Department of Design Sciences. Bengt Sahlberg, Bioett AB. Problem: How does the distribution of cut flower works regarding temperature, losses, responsibility, complaints, packaging and weak points? Purpose:
Background and aim: The MY PD-CARE digital tool is intended to empower people with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and care partners to actively identify and track changes in key symptoms of advancing PD and to facilitate discussions with healthcare professionals (HCPs). MY PD-CARE was adapted from MANAGE-PD, a validated, web-based tool that helps HCPs identify patients with inadequate symptom control. T
Agriculture is the main employment in Bhutan, making it an agriculture-based economy. The project “Solar Food: Reducing post-harvest losses through improved solar drying” is to help indigenous people to preserve their food crops in a more efficient but still natural way by using solar energy for drying. A new idea arose to commercialize food items dried in the solar dryer instead, which would affe
