Fadderrollen: En refleksjon om hvordan det kan legges bedre til rette for fadderskap i Den norske kirke
Hvordan kan kirken bidra til å styrke fadderrollen? Menigheten og hjemmet har tilgang til hverandre gjennom dåpsregister, dåpssamtale og invitasjon til trosopplæringssamlinger og kontinuerlige tiltak i menigheten. Fadderne som den tredje part i trosopplæringsansvaret kan oppleves mer utydelige i samarbeidet. Utgangspunkt for artikkelen er min masteravhandling med tittelen: «Et bidrag til en fadderteologi.» Med bakgrunn i min studie reflekterer jeg i denne artikkelen over hvordan informasjon og kontakt i forbindelse med dåp kan forbedres
Læreroppfatninger om elevers møter med biografier i klasserommet
This paper explores teacher perceptions of students´ encounters with nonfiction, with particular focus on biographies. The study tries to answer the following questions: What views about students' encounters with biographies are communicated in interviews with three literature teachers? What is the educational potential of biographies in a teaching context? The teachers' perceptions are examined through an empirical case study in which three Norwegian teachers are interviewed about their teaching experiences. The study is grounded in theory about how teacher perceptions are a result of different experiences and knowledge (Levin, 2015), and genre theoretical perspectives on the complexity of non-fiction literature (Sanders, 2018). The results show that the teachers are less concerned about developing critical readers through work with biographies, but seem to be more aware of the aesthetic and emotional experience that arises in these encounters. However, aesthetic and emotional experiences do not exclude developing critical awareness. The visual and textual variations in various biographies encourage different reading experiences and participation, and this is crucial in classroom discussions about nonfiction.Denne artikkelen utforsker læreroppfatninger om sakprosalitteraturens potensial i møtet med elever, med et særlig fokus på biografier. Studien søker svar på følgende spørsmål: Hvilke oppfatninger om elevers møter med biografier kommer til uttrykk i intervjuer med tre norsklærere? Hvilket dannelsespotensial kan biografiene ha i undervisningssammenheng? Læreroppfatningene undersøkes gjennom en empirisk kasusstudie der tre norsklærere intervjues i forbindelse med et undervisningsopplegg om biografier. Studien er forankret i teori om hvordan læreroppfatninger er et resultat av ulike erfaringer og kunnskaper (Levin, 2015), og sjangerteoretiske perspektiver om sakprosalitteraturens kompleksitet (Sanders, 2018). Resultatene viser at lærerne er mindre opptatte av at de biografiske tekstene skal fungere som kunnskapskilde og oppøve elevene til å bli kritiske lesere. Man vektlegger i større grad den estetiske og emosjonelle erfaringa som oppstår i møtene med biografiene. Lesing av biografier skaper forskjellige lesererfaringer og leseropplevelser på bakgrunn av biografienes visuelle og verbaltekstlige variasjon og kompleksitet. Hvordan man snakker om disse erfaringene og hva som skaper dem, blir sentralt for arbeidet med sakprosalitteratur i klasserommet.
Hierarchical Object Detection applied to Fish Species: Hierarchical Object Detection of Fish Species
Gathering information of aquatic life is often based on timeconsumingmethods utilizing video feeds. It would be beneficialto capture more information cost-effectively from video feeds.Video based object detection has an ability to achieve this.Recent research has shown promising results with the use ofYOLO for object detection of fish. As underwater conditionscan be difficult and thus fish species are hard to discriminate.This study proposes a hierarchical structure-based YOLO Fishalgorithm in both the classification and the dataset to gainvaluable information. With the use of hierarchical classificationand other techniques. YOLO Fish is a state-of-the-art objectdetector on Nordic fish species, with an mAP of 91.8%. Thealgorithm has an inference time of 26.4 ms, fast enough torun on real-time video on the high-end GPU Tesla V100.Gathering information of aquatic life is often based on timeconsumingmethods utilizing video feeds.

Helt sjukt å være så jævlig god. Bruk av adjektivforsterkere i moderne norsk
Intensifiers are described in several recent articles as unstable vocabulary elements. This article presents an investigation of intensifiers of adjectives in four Norwegian corpora of speech language and two of written language, which shows that some intensifiers are rapidly increasing in use and others declining. An adjectival intensifier does strengthen or underline the meaning of the adjective, but is also an important mean to show the speaker’s opinions or attitude to what is described. The investigation shows to which degree the use of such intensifiers is changed in modern Norwegian spoken language according to some social variables, and gives a brief discussion of whether changes in use results in grammaticalization of the most frequent intensifiers or just show changes in lexical popularity.Adjektivforsterkere omtales av flere språkforskere som ustabile elementer i et språks vokabular. En undesøkelse av bruken av adjektivforsterkere i fire norske talespråkskorpus samt to skriftspråkskorpus viser at noen øker i bruk mens andre blir stadig mindre brukt. I tillegg til å endre styrken i et adjektivs betydning markerer slike forsterkere ofte talerens holdning til det adjektivet uttrykker. Undersøkelsen viser i hvilken grad bruken av adjek-tivforsterkere endrer seg, og om det er forskjell mellom bruken i by og land og etter kjønn og alder
Glossa som forskningsverktøy. Hva folk søker etter og hva resultatene brukes til
In this article we show how the search interface Glossa has been developed in step with the various corpora that have been built at the Text Laboratory. Furthermore, we present statistics on what kind of searches people do – single words or longer phrases, with or without specifications for phonetic form or grammatical features etc. – focusing on the Nordic Dialect Corpus and the Corpus of American Nordic Speech. Finally, we demonstrate how researchers have searched for data in these corpora and used them in published articles – both simple and extended search, in smaller or larger language areas – within several different branches of linguistics.Tekstlaboratoriets korpus og søkegrensesnittet Glossa er utvikla til bruk for språkforskere og andre interesserte fra hele Norden og resten av verden. I denne artikkelen viser vi hvordan søkesystemet Glossa er utvikla fram mot i dag, hva korpusbrukerne søker på, og hvordan korpusdataene kan brukes i vitenskapelige publikasjoner
Resilient grammars: On VO/OV in Germanic linguistic islands in Northern Italy
In this work we consider some residual cases of OV order in Cimbrian and show that this is due to the interaction between verb movement, a language specific property, and the syntax of bare quantifiers. This has consequences on a general theory on the change of the basic word order, since it shows that the passage from OV to VO can involve different structures in different languages depending on other properties, hence it is not possible to trace a common path in the diachronic change for all languages that have undergone this mutation
Work pressure and job dissatisfaction: Challenges in Danish general practice
A main objective of the Nordic healthcare systems is to deliver timely and equal access to high-quality healthcare to the entire population. Health care providers, such as general practitioners (GPs), may therefore experience pressure to deliver care from both the health authorities and patients. However, if GPs’ gains do not outweigh their costs of providing the demanded care, it may lead to job dissatisfaction and thereby potentially to poorer quality of care. This study contributes to the literature by estimating the association between different sources of experienced work pressure and job dissatisfaction among GPs. We use data from a nation-wide survey of Danish GPs distributed in 2019. The study includes six items covering GPs’ experienced work pressure, which we categorise based on the degree to which they are related to demands from either patients or health authorities. Using a series of ordered logit models with a rich set of explanatory variables, we estimate the association between the pressure measures and GP job dissatisfaction. We find that GPs reporting high or considerable work pressure have an increased likelihood of also reporting job dissatisfaction. However, we find considerable heterogeneity in this relationship across different sources of work pressure as well as across GP, practice, and area characteristics. For example, the relationship between pressure from patients’ demands for consultations and job dissatisfaction is stronger among GPs practicing in areas with an undersupply of GPs. Solo practitioners, who cannot share their administrative burdens with colleagues, experience a stronger association between pressure from the health authorities and job dissatisfaction. Policymakers should consider this heterogeneity when implementing new schemes and organisational structures affecting GPs’ work pressure.
