Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to address the way in which several quite varied and often commodified representations of L. Frank Baum’s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900) express and reproduce shifting notions of national identity within American culture across the twentieth century and at the beginning of our own. This thesis pursues the question of national identity that the American myth perpetuates throughout the twentieth century and examines the shift in citizenship through representations found in popular culture’s re-writings of the Wizard of Oz tale. This thesis evaluates both original

Abstract:

The primary aim of this project is to provide a close contextual and textual analysis of the selected children’s classics: The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Anne of Green Gables and The Secret Garden using the feminist literary theory. From this perspective I have shown how the selected works of Lyman Frank Baum, Lucy Maud Montgomery and Frances Hodgson Burnett’s writing have contributed to women’s stereotypical roles within society and perpetuated their subjugated position. I have also conducted an examination of the extent to which the female protagonists attempt to emancipate themselves from gend

Abstract:

Wizard-of-Oz (WoZ) is a flexible, efficient and cost-economic method to the design and evaluation of interaction systems, particularly such of natural dialogue and smart systems. However, the literature review in the beginning of this research indicated that researchers struggled to implement WoZ and be able to gain reliable and valid experimental results in terms of system facilitation consistency; and WoZ has been criticised for a lack of systematic assessment of influence variables, especially when it was used to study new emerging information and communication technologies. Hence, this res

Abstract:

Det webbaserade Wizard of Oz-verktyget Ozlab är ett system som möjliggör skapande ochutförande av tester med interaktiva prototyper. Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka ochutvärdera verktyget för att hitta brister och förändringsförslag. Denna uppsats utgör en kvalitativ studie och datainsamling har skett genom observation och intervju med Ozlab-användare. Utifrån analys av data som samlades in under observation och intervju togs flertalet förändringsförslag fram. För att kontrollera att förändringsförslagen som togs fram accepterades av andra Ozlab-användare skapades en enkät som några

Abstract:

Formal and cultural analyses of The Wizard of Oz (Victor Fleming, 1939) indicate that Dorothy's passage from Kansas, through Oz and back to Kansas symbolically recapitulates paradigmatic stories of both America (the nation's passage from utopian origin, through history, to utopian destiny) and Christianity (the cosmic passage from paradisian origin, through history, to paradisian destiny). In order to "go home" (the explicit theme), Dorothy must "grow up" (the implicit theme); this link is also paralleled symbolically at both national and cosmic levels.

Abstract:

I dette studiet ser vi på hvordan man kan praktisere brukersentrert utvikling i de tidlige fasene av systemutviklingsløpet for applikasjoner til Microsoft Surface.Vi har sett på to temaer knyttet til dette; introduksjon av ny teknologi for brukere, og metoder for low-fi prototyping og wizard-of-Oz brukbarhetstesting. Ved praktisering av brukersentrert utvikling er det ikke uvanlig at brukerne som involveres har en lav teknisk innsikt. Dette gjelder spesielt for nye teknologier som multi-touchbord, som fremdeles er lite utbredt. Viktigheten av å formidle mulighetene og begre
