Syftet var att undersöka förskollärares tolkning av begreppet mobbning samt undersöka hur de arbetar för att förebygga mobbning bland barnen i förskolan och i förskoleklassen.                                                                                     I läroplanerna, Lpo94 och Lpfö98, nämns vikten av att arbeta för att barnen och eleverna ska känna trygghet i skolan. Detta är ett viktigt ämne som är ständigt aktuellt.                                                                                                          Valde att undersöka förskollärarnas uppfattningar genom en enkätstudie. Delade ut 50 enkäter till förskollärare fördelade på 11 förskolor och 5 förskoleklasser. Bortfallet blev 18 stycken.                                                                   Resultatet visar att de arbetar kring frågor som rör mobbning bland barnen på varierande sätt. Endast ett fåtal nämnde likabehandlingsplanen som ett redskap i detta arbete.                                                                                           Nästan hälften av de förskollärare som svarade på enkäten upplever att de inte har den kunskap/utbildning som behövs för att de ska kunna arbeta med att förebygga mobbning på ett för dem tillfredsställande sätt.Resultatet av denna studie visar även att de åtta program som presenteras i boken ?På tal om mobbning ? och det som görs? som gavs ut av Skolverket under 2009 är okända för förskollärarna i stor utsträckning.    .

Within the political science literature that deals with the implementation process a central part has long been what is sometimes called the implementation deficit. This means that the effect of a policy decision doesn´t turn out as it was originally intended. The often used explanation is that the policy decisions moves through many levels during its implementation where different actors can change or alter the decision in various degrees. This phenomenon has gradually become more and more attended within the legislative process in the European Union and has been addressed in numerous studies. The purpose of this paper is to examine the implementation of The Habitats Directive, as its embodied in regulatory documents, in the Swedish multi-level system.

Informationssäkerhet är ett område som börjar sättas alltmer i fokus hos företag och organisationer. Problemet idag handlar mycket om att de administrativa lösningarna för att skydda viktig information inte får samma uppmärksamhet som de tekniska. En viktig del i den administrativa säkerheten kring information är informationssäkerhetspolicyn och dess riktlinjer. För att personalen inom ett företag eller en organisation ska kunna skydda den information de arbetar med behöver de få utbildning i informationssäkerhet och de behöver få en policy och riktlinjer att följa i det dagliga arbetet. Policyn och riktlinjerna bör ha en viss struktur och ett visst innehåll för att uppmuntra till god efterlevnad.

The purpose of this essay is to illustrate the ideas that have influenced parents' choice of a Christian private school and how parents justify their choices. The essay also aims to examine the expectations that parents have in the schools, as well as the pros and cons as they consider private school compared to other schools.My study is based on qualitative data collected through interviews with parents who have chosen to place one or more of their children in a specific Christian private school. Using a qualitative approach has made it possible for me to get a deeper understanding of this investigation. I have also used the previous research on this field and theoretical starting points to explain and connect to my inquiry as Maslow's hierarchy of needs and the school Weber document types and identity in a multicultural society.The study shows that parents seek to or from the public school due to various reasons. To seek out a Christian private school depends on different reasons.

This study examines how upper secondary school teachers in Västerbotten and Österbotten plan to teach about the Finnish War 1808-09. The study includes written interviews with nine teachers in Västerbotten and eight teachers in Österbotten, who have answered questions concerning school policy documents, content and didactic methods. The purpose has been to examine whether there is a difference in historical culture in how the war is treated in the two regions. Historical culture is here meant within the prospective history lesson, where the pupils encounter history within certain boundaries.The result of the interview study shows that there are differences in structure concerning the school policy documents, but that these differences on the whole are compensated by the widespread interest in the Finnish War by the teachers in both regions. The differences in historical culture can be found within the construction of the content when it comes to the aftermaths of the war as well as the purpose of the teaching.

AbstractPolitical Science, level III thesisSpring semester 2010Author: Emelie AlfredssonSupervisor: Tomas Mitander"A Changed Leadership? - A study of the EU leadership from a institutional standpoint, related to multilateral environmental negotiations"The EU has for a relatively long time considered itself a leader in the environmental policy area as a whole as well as in multilateral environmental negotiations. This study attempts to classify and identify the European leadership with the purpose of relating it to the institutional framework of the Union. The treaties of the European Union decide its ability to act and its institutions the right to engage in different policy areas, the environmental area being the focus of this study. With the recent ratification of the Lisbon treaty this study aims to make out if the type of leadership the Union showed during the Kyoto negotiations has changed with the new treaty, into a new type during the COP-15 meeting in Copenhagen.

Förtroende har sitt ursprung i trygghet och säkerhet. För att lämna ifrån sig personlig information krävs att man känner förtroende och således även trygghet och säkerhet. Tillgång till personlig information är en viktig konkurrensfördel för ett företag. Samtidigt utgör den personliga informationen ett problem eftersom många kunder känner en oro att lämna ifrån sig denna. Oron beror på osäkerhet om vad som kan hända med den information man lämnar, denna oro kan i sin tur leda till brist på förtroende.

I denna litteraturstudie så belyser vi ett på senare tid större problem som finns både i skolan men även i hemmet, detta fenomen kallas för e-mobbning. Den traditionella mobbningen har funnits i åratal men gentemot teknikens utveckling så har även mobbningen utvecklats och sker nu även via datorer och mobiltelefoner. I denna studie så står skolans samt föräldrarnas handlande i centrum när det gäller att motverka e-mobbning, dessutom så undersöks det även hur delaktigheten samt utsatthet ser ut bland könen, hur ser fördelningen ut när det gäller just delaktighet och utsatthet. Vi har tagit del av ett flertal vetenskapliga studier där vi har fått våra svar ifrån. Det finns gott om olika sorters lösningar på hur man kan förminska e-mobbningen där det tydligt visar sig att elevens/barnets del är väldigt viktigt, att den säger till när det sker e-mobbning.

This thesis studies the negative impact that control signal saturation may have on a controlled system. Different methods that are used to compensate for this problem are also studied and evaluated. Both sensitivity to disturbances and the effect the method has on the systems'ability to follow a reference signal will be examined. Stability will be discussed, but no conclusions whether the systems are stabilized or not can be drawn. Control signal saturation will lead to a slower behavior in general.

This study investigates the use of the social network Facebook among 67 Swedish libraries; 27 academic libraries and 40 public libraries. Data is collected through an analysis of the libraries? Facebook pages and through an email survey. To analyze the data, a series of statistical analyses were performed.The results indicate that the public libraries more actively posted Facebook updates than the academic libraries and that the libraries that had a policy for use of Facebook/social media more actively posted updates than those libraries that did not have such policy. The libraries use Facebook mainly to post links and photos and to announce events, provide book recommendations, and to emphasize special occasions.

This thesis focuses on the perception of immigration and refugees in the commonEuropean refugee and immigration policy. It identifies different discourses andstudies their development and interrelated power structures.Using the discourse theory of Laclau and Mouffe, documents from theEuropean Council, the Commission, the Justice and Home Affairs Council andParliament debates are analysed. The study is defined in the time span of 1999-2006, i.e. from the European Council's first agreement on developing a commonEuropean asylum system, following the period up till today.Four discourses are distinguished, focusing respectively on rights, security,European Union's needs, and cultural identity. I use Sandra Lavenex theory ofrealism and idealism to analyse one of the main points in the thesis: There is afundamental schism between the one rights-based discourse, focusing on universalhuman rights, and the three sharing a particularistic focus on immigration as asecurity concern.

The aim of this master?s study is to examine the function of the public library in the local community at present. I have searched for the answers to the following questions: Which position has the public library in the local cultural policy? What characterizes each library and which are the priorities? What is the local profile of the public library? What cooperation partners does the public library have and what do they mean to the library? Does the public library intensify the local community in any way? To answer this, I have made three qualitative case studies. Interviews and collection of documents were carried out in three different communities.

The essay discusses diffrent angel of incidence of dance in school and its positive effects and examines what kinds of dance there are in the schools of Vänersborg?s municipal.

This essay examines the historical development of group rights for cultural minorities in Sweden between the years 1970 and 2010. The purpose of the study is to analyze the development of political measures taken at government level for different minority groups, foremost explaining the division that have arisen between measures aimed at the five national minorities, the Sámi, the Swedish Finns, the Roma, the Jews and the Tornedalians, and measures directed at other ethnic groups.My conclusions are that the division in Swedish public policy between one the one hand national minorities, and on the other hand immigrant groups, is in no way self-evident. The division has arisen from an international standard on how democratic states, such as Sweden, should treat their cultural minorities. Further, this division has had an immense impact in shaping public policy as well as determining the type of group rights introduced for minority groups in Sweden.A difference has also been found in how the minorities are perceived by state actors. Immigrant groups are currently perceived as less entitled to group rights due to their short presence in Sweden, whereas national minorities are seen as more entitled to group rights due to their long historic presence in the country.
