We asked them about their spare time, homework, change of teachers and future and compared their answers with different elements, which we found in previous research. Those elements which we found out to be most relevant for our interviewees were contact with Swedes, the student's own will and personality. Finally we wanted to study what a student has to attain during the studies in Swedish. We chose some goals in the course plan and asked the students if they felt that they had the knowledge that they were supposed to according to the course plan. By interpreting their answers we found that the chosen goals are accomplished. (Less)
