Studiens syfte är att undersöka förmedlingen av övningsinstruktioner inom instrumentalundervisningen på musik- och kulturskolor. Med utgångspunkt i lektionstillfällen undersöks övningsinstruktionernas innehåll, förmedlingssätt samt elevens uppfattning av dessa instruktioner. I studien undersöktes det tre violoncellpedagogers undervisning, totalt tolv lektioner, varav hälften var gruppundervisning.Title: To teach how to learn – A study of practice instructions in the field of music education. The purpose of this study is to examine how instructions concerning practicing a musical instrument are conveyed during a lesson. The content of the instructions and the way they were presented during the lesson were examined, as well as the student's perception of these instructions. The study wa

Smoke spread via ventilation systems relying on running fans or bypasses can be calculated with performance based fire safety analyses tools. The focus of this thesis work was to review existing methods for treating this problem and to further develop current analysis methods. Suggestions are also made for setting up guidelines as to what are tolerable amounts of smoke spread depending on building

This report describes experiments with a method for measuring water density in the spray from a water mist sprinkler using laser diodes. The decrease in light intensity at a photo cell across the spray from the diode is used to calculate the water density. The same method has previously been used for measuring the soot content of a flame, but the calculations when measuring water density are in so

Some companies have chosen to differentiate their products by labeling them environmentally friendly, or “green”. Green products sends the message to the market that a particular company is caring for the environment, however the processes involved in making the product can be the reasons for a product being labeled green. The production processes of the final stage company in a supply chain may n

White adipose tissue (WAT) plays an important role in the integration of whole-body metabolism by storing fat and mobilizing triacylglycerol when needed. The released free fatty acids can then be oxidized by other tissues to provide ATP. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a key regulator of metabolic pathways, and can be targeted by a new generation of direct, small-molecule activators. AMPK a

Business angels are a vital source of capital for innovative start-up firms. However, many potentially attractive investment opportunities are rejected during the angel's decision-making process. Information asymmetry, risk and distrust in the relationship between the investor and the entrepreneur result in investment barriers. The concept of proximity has been proposed as a conceptual foundation

Rinodina pityrea and R. colobina are reported as two distinct species with differing ecology and morphological characters. Molecular analysis of their ITS and mrSSU genes show that R. pityrea and R. colobina are two clearly separated species. Furthermore, the two species are morphologically and geographically distinct in the Nordic countries and can usually be recognized with a hand lens rather th

Depositional practices have been regarded as a part of a Neolithic lifestyle together with farming and keeping livestock. As an ongoing discussion shows, however, it is not entirely clear how we should understand these practices. The categorization of Neolithic pits still raises questions and leaves some issues unresolved, especially as the categorization often leads to the use of dichotomies, and
