Multiple benefits but almost as many obstacles : teachers and students' perceptions of the integration English and vocational studies in University o…

2016

Integraatio on opetusmenetelmä, jossa pyritään häivyttämään eri aineiden välisiä rajoja muodostamalla aineiden välille yhteyksiä. Integroitu opetus voidaan nähdä erityisen hyödyllisenä ammattikorkeakoulujen kontekstissa, jossa opetuksen tavoitteena on tarjota opiskelijoille työelämän tiedot ja taidot kokonaisvaltaisessa muodossa.

Tutkimuksen teoreettinen viitekehys kartoittaa englannin kielen opetusta ammattikorkeakoulussa ja integraatiota opetusilmiönä korkeakoulutuksen kontekstissa. Tutkimus toteu…

Following Bruening (2013), I further argue that the by-phrase is an adjunct just like instrumental PPs that can be freely inserted in structures that have external arguments that ar…

2007

Masteroppgave i engelsk- Universitetet i Agder 2007 This thesis commences with a description of Pre-Roman and Roman Britain, to identify the people who lived in Northumbria and their background. The description then progresses with an explanation about the withdrawal of the Romans, and the state of affairs they left behind, giving also a reason for the arrival of the Anglo-Saxons. Once this is established, the scene which the Anglo-Saxons meet on their arrival is depicted, and their subsequent settlement recounted. The Anglo-Saxons were a warlike people, so their belligerent activities suppressing the Celts, and the campaigning between themselves and the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms for supremacy, …
