This study explored the state of art education in Turkey as revealed by pre-service art education university instructors, and the potential of incorporating visual culture studies in pre-service art education in Turkey. The instructors' ideas about visual culture, and popular culture, the impact it might have, the content (objects), and the practices within the context of Turkey were examined. Visual culture was examined from an art education perspective that focuses on a pedagogical approach that emphasizes the perception and critique of popular culture and everyday cultural experiences, and the analysis of media including television programs, computer games, Internet sites, and advertisements. A phenomenological human science approach was employed in order to develop a description of the perception of visual culture in pre-service art education in Turkey as lived by the participants. In-person interviews were used to collect the data from a purposive sample of 8 faculty members who offered undergraduate and graduate art education pedagogy, art history, and studio courses within four-year public universities. This empirical approach sought to obtain comprehensive descriptions of an experience through semi-structural interviews. These interviews employed open-ended questions to gather information about the following: their educational and professional background; their definitions of art education and art teacher education and what it means for them to teach pre-service art education; critical reflections on the educational system of Turkey; perceptions of visual and popular culture; and finally individual approaches to teaching art education. This study was conducted for the purpose of benefiting pre-service art teacher education in general and specifically in Turkey. It provided the rationale, the nature, and pedagogy of visual culture as well as the why and how of visual culture art education in the context of Turkey. Furthermore, it provided insights into the potential contribution of the concept of visual culture to the understanding of art and improvement of art teacher training in the context of Turkey.

To suffer from aphasia could mean that a most important ability of human nature is lost and could therefore restrict the patient's communication ability. Therefore a higher standard is of importance in the non-verbal communication. Health professionals describe difficulties in understanding this form of communication. This causes disturbance in the interaction and nursing care cannot be adapted to the unique human being. The purpose of this literature review is to highlight and summarize existing research, describing how the various non-verbal communication channels are integrated, in nursing care to patients affected by stroke and aphasia. In the method of this literature review searches were made from the databases Cinahl and Medline. The 12 articles that were included has been quality examined and analyzed according to Friberg (2006). The results describe how the speaking body, support for the unique human being, bodily contact and relationships are important for the understanding of the nonverbal communication. The discussion revolves around how this understanding is formed in the interaction, to be able to see the unique human being and create relationships that provide external support for the human needs here and now. The four categories that are presented in this study may increase the knowledge of the studied phenomena and could also be the ground for further studies in this area.

Att drabbas av afasi kan innebära att en högst mänsklig förmåga går förlorad, vilket kan begränsa patientens kommunikationsmöjligheter. Därmed ställs högre krav på den icke verbala kommunikationen. Vårdpersonal beskriver svårigheter att skapa förståelse i denna form av kommunikation. Till följd av detta blir samspelet lidande och omvårdnaden kan därför inte anpassas till den unika människan. Syftet med denna litteraturöversikt är att belysa och sammanställa befintlig forskning, som beskriver hur olika icke verbala kommunikationsvägar integreras, i omvårdnaden till patienter som drabbats av stroke med afasi som följd. I metoden genomfördes sökningar i databaserna Cinahl och Medline. De 12 artiklar som inkluderats har kvalitetsgranskats och analyserats enligt Friberg (2006). I resultatet beskrivs hur den talande kroppen, stödet till den unika människan, kroppslig beröring och relationen har betydelse för förståelsen i den icke verbala kommunikationen. Diskussionen kretsar kring hur denna förståelse kommer i samspelet, för att se den unika människan och skapa relationen som ger stöd utifrån människans förutsättningar här och nu. De fyra kategorier som framläggs i denna studie kan öka kunskapen inom det fenomen som studerats och lägga grunden för vidare studier på området. / To suffer from aphasia could mean that a most important ability of human nature is lost and could therefore restrict the patient's communication ability.

With the rise of the internet, researchers have begun to examine how this new medium is used and how it changes our lives. There has been particular interest (as well as concern), both in academic circles and in popular culture and media, in the linguistic forms found online, such as emoticons and specialized abbreviations (e.g. 'LOL' for 'laughing out loud'). However, while there are many studies to be found on emoticons, these well-known forms are only a very small subset of the wide variety of specialized forms found online, and studies examining other types of online forms are few and far between. Many of these forms, like emoticons, can convey facial expressions, but they can also communicate sounds and other actions, forms of expression that, in face-to-face interactions, are usually the domain of studies in nonverbal communication. Because of the correlation between these two areas, I suggest that the vast store of literature on traditional nonverbal communication can help us to understand online correlates of nonverbal behavior by providing a starting point for future studies into the intricacies of online forms. / text
