Undersökningen syftar till att studera hur lärare arbetar med återkoppling för att utveckla elevens skriftliga språkkunskaper i förhållande till kunskapskrav. Ett delsyfte är att även undersöka vilka möjligheter och utmaningar lärarna ser med återkoppling på elevtexter som strategi för att utveckla elevens skriftliga språkkunskaper. Undersökningen utgår ifrån forskningsfrågorna om hur lärare tolkar Skolverkets kunskapskrav, hur lärare arbetar med återkoppling på elevtexter samt hur lärare uppfattar möjligheter och utmaningar med att ge återkoppling på elevtexter. Denna undersökning utgår ifrån en kvalitativ metod, baserat på kvalitativa semistrukturerade intervjuer. Materialet som analyserats består av sex intervjuer med yrkesverksamma utbildade lärare i ämnet svenska. Undersökningen visar att lärarna tolkar kunskapskraven likstämmigt, men upplever att de är komplexa. Vad gäller återkopplingen på elevtexter konstateras att lärarna anpassar arbetet med återkoppling efter tid, arbetsbelastning, men också utefter eleven och den aktuella skrivuppgiften. Gemensamt för lärarna i studien är att det uppfattas som viktigt att utveckla språket, samt att en sådan utveckling sker ligger hos både läraren och eleven. / This paper investigates how teachers work with feedback to improve the student’s written language, in relation to the syllabus. Moreover, this paper intends to distinguish what opportunitiesand challenges teachers face during their work with feedback regarding the student's writtenlanguage. The study emanates from the following research questions: How do teachers interpret the language criteria in the syllabus, how are the teachers working with feedback to improve students’ written language, and at last, what challenges and opportunities do the teachers experience during the work with feedback regarding the student's written language? The survey is based on a qualitative method, more specifically semi structed interviews with respondents teaching swedish in upper secondary school, in Sweden. The study shows that teachers tend to interpret the criteria in the syllabus uniformly, despite the complex formulations there are. It was also found that teachers’ feedback is adjusted to time, workload, but also the current writing assignment. The study also shows that the teachers interviewed, believes that the students’ development in written language is important and that both teachers and students are responsible for that such development is taking place

This study examines how four teachers of Swedish perceive the knowledge requirement that says that a student should mainly be able to follow the rules concerning standard written language, how often they teach standard language and to what extent students’ written language affect assessment. The results show that the teachers of Swedish agree that the most important aspect of a text is how it is perceived in its entirety, as well as its flow and how well a reader can understand the text. Some nonstandard expressions are allowed by the teachers, while others are not. The study also shows that the teaching of standard language depends on which school the teachers belong to. In a public school the standard language is taught in isolated situations, while the teachers in a private school do it continuously. However, all informants agree that they do it continuously to some extent when it comes to feedback on student essays. Student perception was also examined and the result shows that there is an inconsistency in how students perceive that standard language is taught. / Den här studien undersöker hur fyra svensklärare uppfattar kunskapskravet som säger att en elev i huvudsak ska kunna följa skriftspråkets normer för språkriktighet, hur ofta de arbetar med språkriktighet och i vilken mån elevers skriftspråk påverkar bedömning. Sammanfattningsvis är informanterna eniga om att det handlar om helhetsbilden, flytet och förståelsen. Vissa normbrott godkänns i elevtexter medan andra är oacceptabla. Resultatet visar att informanternas skoltillhörighet påverkar arbetet med språkriktighet. Medan de kommunalt anställda lärarna undervisar om språkriktighet vid isolerade tillfällen, sker det mer kontinuerligt av de privat anställda lärarna. Däremot finns det viss kontinuitet i språkriktighetsarbetet vad beträffar återkoppling på elevtexter. Även elevåsikter har undersökts och resultatet visar att informanterna är oeniga om hur ofta de undervisas om språkriktighet.

Föreliggande uppsats syftar till att undersöka vad fyra musiklärare på högstadiet har för musikalisk bakgrund och hur de använder sig av traditionell västerländsk notskrift i undervisningen. Tidigare forskning tar upp noters likhet med skriftspråk, noters roll i musikundervisning och identitet och förebilder i musik. Som teoretisk utgångspunkt har sociokulturellt perspektiv använts. Halvstrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes med fyra musiklärare i högstadiet och analyserades med tematisk analys. Resultaten visade att noter främst användes i undervisning i trumspel och melodispel på piano och mer sällan i undervisning i sång, gitarr och ackordspel på piano. Det framkom även att de musiklärare som hade en mer populärmusikalisk bakgrund tenderade att använda noter mindre i undervisningen än de med en klassisk bakgrund. Vidare diskuteras ur vilka perspektiv sambandet mellan musikalisk bakgrund och notanvändning kan förstås, praktiska aspekter av att undervisa med eller utan noter och hur musikundervisning speglar noters samhällsstatus. / This study aims to examine the musical background of four music teachers in lower secondary school and how they use traditional Western musical notation in their teaching. Previous research addresses the similarities of musical notation with written language, the role of musical notation in music teaching and identity and role models in music. Socio- cultural perspective has been used as a theoretical starting point. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with four music teachers in lower secondary school and analyzed using thematic analysis. The results showed that musical notation is mainly used in teaching drums and melody playing on piano but rarely when teaching singing, guitar and chord playing on piano. The study also showed that the music teachers who had a more pop musical background tended to use musical notation less in their teaching than those with a classical background. Furthermore, it is discussed from which perspectives the connection between musical background and the use of musical notation can be understood, practical aspects of teaching with or without musical notation and how music teaching reflects the social status of musical notation.

The starting point for my degree project was the experience of an “in-betweenship”: to be in the middle of two cultures. If language is a bearer of culture and typography the body of language, as a graphic designer I was curious about what typography could be created from this intermediate position. In particular, I wanted to work with methods, tools, and expressions derived from my Jewish heritage in order to change my conditions for type construction and language. I have explored the typographic ligature as a method and form; historically created to save time and space in typesetting, but here used to find common denominators between two structurally different scripts. One question in particular has guided my process: can I create something whole from an intermediate position – something that isn’t one or the other, but a third possibility? The result is a calligraphic, interscriptual typeface with hybrids of Latin and Hebrew letters that can be read from left-to-right in English, as well as right-to-left in Yiddish. Based on my own poem about this in-betweenship – introduced on p.50 – the visual appearence comes from the codependency between the two scripts, a well as the compromises this merge entailed. This way, it doesn’t only represent my own hybridized experience but also the Jewish experience at large, shaped by influences from other cultures and languages over centuries of flight and migration.
