Published Article / In the actual learning situation, students develop context specific strategies for learning in response to their own perceptions of the requirements for learning. Among all the contextual factors, assessment has been demonstrated to have a powerful effect on the learning process and is a defining feature of the students' approach to learning. However, assessment in the engineering discipline is typically orientated towards demonstrating competence in specific tasks using only traditional assessment techniques. However, the effectiveness of education programmes is dependent on how well lecturers understand the role of assessment in student learning and how well they are prepared to change their strategy in such a way that they use assessment as a tool for the improvement of student learning.

La démonstration de la « situation à risque » sur l’île Mandji au Gabon légitime l’existence des « risques-sites », des « risques-transports » et des « risques-friches » provenant majoritairement des industries du bois et du pétrole, qui participent à la vulnérabilité de ce territoire. Si la montée en puissance de la question du développement durable ne s’est pas accompagnée d’une politique nationale contraignante au Gabon ou d’une mobilisation citoyenne dans la gestion et la prévention des risques industriels, on a observé que les lieux où se débattent finalement la question des risques industriels se situent au sein des entreprises privées étrangères, lesquelles inscrivent progressivement leur activité dans des démarches locales ou internationales de développement durable susceptibles de provoquer un sursaut de l’administration et des populations. Certes, l’étendue et l’évaluation des risques industriels sont laissées à leur seule appréciation. Mais cette dynamique innovante en cours constituerait une politique des petits pas irréversible qui permettent à l’Etat de reprendre progressivement la main. / The risk situation analysis of the Mandji Island in Gabon area reveal other risks linked with concerned sites, transport and wasteland resulting mainly industries of wood and some oil, which participate in the vulnerability of this territory. If the increasing power of sustainable development was not backed up with national restricting policy in Gabon nor called for by civic impetus about preventing industrial hazards. In fact, the problem of industrial hazards is more obviously debated by foreign private firms who gradually include within their local and international scope the idea of sustainable development likely to cause reactive response both from government and local population. Certainly, the appreciation and the assessment of the industrial risks are left with their only appreciation. Without national framework law to acknowledge their existence and therefore their prevention, this currently stimulating innovation represents irreversible short step policy allowing progressive takeover by the authorities.

Various types of radio stations started on business since government opened the radio frequency license at 1993. However, the population of radio audiences have been decreasing because of the big build up in powerful TV network and internet world. Thus it is important for the radio station owners and mangers to seriously consider this issue. Possible solutions include how to utilize media advantage of radio station, how to understand listeners¡¦ motivation and situation, how to give the best and acceptive programs to listeners, and how to produce the most effective package to our customers. Research on radio listeners had been only focused on population pronumeral to find the listening behavior and stay tune motivation. In this study, we employed the situation method from Dervin¡¦s Sence-making theory to investigate listeners listening behavior in one specific space-time domain. We study relationship between stay tune motivation and situation by colleting questionnaires at Kaohsiung area to analyze correlation among different listening motivation, time situation, space situation and mental situation. The study used a convenient sampling approach to collect sample in Kaohsiung area. A total number of 486 samples were collected and analyzed. The analysis results are as follow- 1.Different listening motivation results in different listening time situation. Audiences tend to listen to radio programs to get more information in the morning. In contrast, they listen to radio programs to get relaxed and comfortable in the afternoon and evening. Due to limitation of listening time, the information should be broadcast in easy, short, exact and simple way. Program with emotional and comfortable purpose should be increased. 2. Listening motivation and listening space situation are correlated. Audiences tend to listen to radio programs to enhance their knowledge when they go to work. On the other hand, they use radio as an accompanying media when they are on the office. On their way to home or at home, broadcast is used for accompanying and emotional attribution. Radio program is for entertainment purpose when audiences are alone. If their friends or family members stay around, the function of accompanying will be changed by people communication. The motivation of listening become emotional attribution, the rate of accompanying by other people is a little bit higher. 3. Listening motivation and listening mental situation are correlated. A high proportion of radio listeners are satisfied with radio programs regardless of what type of motivation. This is especially true when listeners want to get more news and information. In summary, we found that motivation and situation play important role to radio audience. The owners and managers of radio stations should develop effective strategy on these issues in order to provide better service to their customer.

Högläsningen håller på att gå ur tiden i vårt samhälle på grund av medias inflytande. Förskolans och pedagogers förhållningssätt har förändrats från barnomsorg till pedagogisk stimulans där även högläsning ingår. Syftet med min undersökning var att undersöka om högläsning har betydelse i förskolan utifrån pedagogers synsätt. Jag ville se på vilka strategier pedagogerna använder för att göra högläsningssituationen meningsfull. De teorier jag har koncentrerat mig på är högläsning ur ett teoretiskt perspektiv och den proximala utvecklingszonen samt användning av strategier i högläsning. Tidigare forskning tyder på att högläsning kan bidra med många positiva egenskaper för barns språkutveckling. Den visar också att barnen behöver ha en språklig grund när de börjar skolan. Därför måste pedagogerna använda ett varierat utbud som passar varje individ. Det empiriska materialet i min studie har insamlats genom att två olika förskolor har observerats och fyra pedagoger som arbetar där har intervjuats angående deras inställning till högläsning. Resultatet visar att samtliga pedagoger är eniga om att högläsningen kan gynna barns språkutveckling. Pedagogerna visade även goda kunskaper om varför de läser högt för barnen. Jag drar därför slutsatsen att högläsning har betydelse där jag utförde min studie. Kravet för att högläsningen ska vara meningsfull för barnen är dock att situationen kring högläsningen är lugn och koncentrerad.
