IT i fritidshemsverksamheten : Fritidslärares inställningar till och användningav IT och digitala spel i verksamheten

Syftet var att undersöka skillnader mellan olika studentgrupper uppdelat efter år av arbetslivserfarenhet och ålder. Detta för att se om arbetslivserfarenhet och ålder hade någon betydelse för studenters interna motivation, externa motivation, amotivation och kontrollokus. I tvärsnittsstudien deltog 71 studenter (60 kvinnor och 11 män) från en högskola i Mellansverige och deltagarnas ålderspridning var 19-47 år. Undersökningen byggde på två enkäter; The Academic motivation scale (AMS-C28) for college students (Ryan & Deci, 2000) och Academic locus of control scale for college students (ALC) (Trice, 2013). Statistiskt signifikant skillnad fanns mellan en studentgrupp som var 19-22 år gamla och en studentgrupp som var 26 år och äldre på kontrollokus, där resultatet visade att den äldsta gruppen upplevde mer externt kontrollokus än den yngre gruppen.

Göteborg International Film Festival Fund - Internationell kulturpolitik och strategiskt utvecklingsarbete

The aim of this research is to examine the Göteborg International Film Festival Fund (GIFFF, 1998?2011) as a part of the festival's overall operations, to provide answers to questions about if/how the Fund can be understood as an expression of the festival's fundamental values, and how the Fund can be recognized within the festival's strategic development. The GIFFF is also discussed in relation to contemporary academic studies that interpret Western film funds for the developing countries ? such as Hubert Bals Fund and Fond Sud Cinéma ? as an expression of Eurocentrism.The investigation is based on the contemporary film festival research, previous academic studies on Göteborg International Film Festival, the festival?s printed material ? such as programs and press releases ? as well as interviews with the former festival director Gunnar Bergdahl, who initiated the Fund, and festival editor Ulf Sigvardson, who ran the Fund during its final years of existence.The conclusions are: The Fund's objectives ? such as to support filmmakers and film schools in the developing countries, and also to screen their films at the festival ? can be seen as a broader interpretation of the vision that was determined by the festival founders, that the festival should be a platform for independent filmmaking and also help screen the films that otherwise would not reach the Swedish audience. Also, the Fund was a significant part of the festival's expansion strategies during the 1990s.

Rollen av achievements i spelupplevelsen och spelandet

I denna studie, som bygger på tidigare arbete på achievements och belöningssystem, utreds effekten av achievementsystem på spelupplevelsen och spelandet i ett tredjepersons actionspel. Dessutom har achievements i tredjepersons actionspel undersökts för att ta reda på vilka typer av achievements som passar bäst in i genren. För att undersöka detta har andra achievementsystem analyserats och fyra kategorier av achievements klassificerats. För undersökningen har en bana skapats i ett tredjepersons actionspel, samt ett för genren representativt achievementsystem som sedan implementerats.Studien har visat att achievementsystem ökar spelares utforskningstendens och speltid. Samtidigt har utforskningsbaserade achievements visat sig vara de mest populära i spelet, och handlingsbaserade de minst populära.

Likvärdig utbildning för alla barn? En studie om boendesegregation och diskriminering i Sveriges grundskolesystem

The major focus in this study is structural inequalities in primary school in Sweden. UNESCO points out that in many developing countries, up to 40% of the children perform at or below the lowest proficiency level in language and mathematics. Sweden has been criticized by the UN about the large differences in educational achievements between different regions. Based on an official study Sweden considers that those differences are related to ethnically segregate residential areas. My research question is whether the Swedish government takes adequate consideration of the impact that socioeconomically aspects have on educational achievement.

Studier har visat att kvinnor har lägre självkänsla och lägre förväntan på den egna prestationen än männen, trots att fler kvinnor än män studerar på högskolan. För att undersöka hur högskolestudenter upplevde självkänslan och upplevda studieprestationen beroende på mansdominerad eller kvinnodominerad utbildning, genomfördes en enkätundersökning med 86 studenter varav 40 var män och 46 var kvinnor. Fyra mätinstrument användes varav ett var Rosenbergs (1965) Self-esteem scale, de övriga mätinstrumenten utformades av författaren och mätte upplevd studieprestation. Fyra hypoteser ställdes med könsjämförelse i fokus. Resultatet visade att deltagarna upplevde kvinnliga studenters studieprestation högre än manliga studenters.
