AbstractMy study is based on that I think there is a problem at the Handicraft program for hairdressers where I currently work as a hairdresser teacher. I believe that there are clear objectives and a wide range of courses focusing in craft knowledge, but the social competence goals are unclear and there are no courses on the subject. Since I have 13 years hairdressing experience and know roughly what it requires, I wonder where and how the teaching of social skills is performed at the Handicraft program for hairdressersThe purpose of this study is therefore to find out how some of my colleagues perceive the teaching of social skills. The issues I have focused on are what these teachers believe that social skills are, how they perceive their teaching of it and when they believe that teaching really should be. There is not much literature on this subject because it is a relatively unexplored area. I have therefore concentrated on literature dealing with social skills in general, and theses and essays dealing with the quality of hairdressing education. I have chosen to make a qualitative interview study. The objectives related to social skills can be incorporated in the teaching of many subjects; I chose to interview two core-subject teachers and four vocational teachers. The interviews have been based on respondents' own interpretations of social skills. They have been individual interviews of about 30 minutes. My results show that most teachers believe that social competence is about a good meeting between people and to coping with different situations in a good way.

Jag har via min verksamhetsförlagda utbildning under lärarutbildningen kommit i kontakt med elever som har för avsikt att färgsatta sina slöjdföremål. I samband med detta har jag ställt mig frågorna. Vilka är elevernas inspirationskällor och vilka faktorer skulle kunna påverka elevernas färgsättningsval? Efter intervjuer med elever och genomförda litteraturstudier så har jag fått en inblick i vilka inspirationskällor elever kan använda sig av. I min undersökning visade det sig att elever ofta vill efterlikna sin färgsättning med något de sett tidigare.

The students participating in my development work will work with a process book for handicraft studies. In the beginning of their studies, the students need practical knowledge about the development of the profession itself, but they also need to be challenged and learn how to solve problems on their own which will help them gain a deeper knowledge of the subject.    I focus on open questions to create a process with the students. This process is created when working with Solution-Focused-Education. Through ?assessment for learning? we can help the students to improve their self-assessment and understanding of the learning process.

Syfte: Studiens syfte är att beskriva det nuvarande kunskapsläget gällande användning av skapande aktiviteter inom arbetsterapi.Metod: En systematisk litteraturstudie valdes som undersökningsmetod och tio stycken vetenskapliga artiklar granskades utifrån Fribergs förslag. Artiklarna anträffades via en gemensam systematisk sökning i databaserna Cinahl, Amed och Medline. Sökorden som användes var creative therapy, creative activity, craft, handicraft, art therapy samt creativeness. Alla i kombination med occupational therapy.Resultat: Skapande aktiviteter används inom arbetsterapeutisk bedömning och behandling, både i grupp och individuellt. En rad värden har påvisats i samband med användandet av skapande aktiviteter ? de ger framgångskänsla, möjlighet att bearbeta sin livssituation samt möjlighet att strukturera sin dag och distrahera tankarna.

The aim of this two year master thesis is to study the knowledge production within the field of Textile Studies at Uppsala University, with special focus on the use of artifact documentation as a research method. With domain analysis as a theoretical framework, ontological and epistemological assumptions as well as historical and social aspects are studied in relation to the research process. Qualitative research methods are used, including interviews, observations and text analysis. In the analysis of the knowledge processes in the field, perspectives on tacit knowledge and the concept of documents, are used as a theoretical basis. In the field of Textile Studies, the artifacts are used as one of the main objects of study, along with archival and pictorial sources. The main epistemological assumptions are that artifact analysis is dependent on a knowledge base, where technical handicraft skills, contextual knowledge and practical experience of object observation are the most important qualifications.

Syftet med detta gestaltande arbete är att ta reda på hur skiktlimning fungerar i skolundervisningen och vilka möjligheter som finns för att integrera den mer i skolan. Syftet är också att bidra med kunskap om tekniken till andra lärare. Detta är ett gestaltande examensarbete. Tre olika produkter tillverkades med hjälp av skiktlimning. Processen dokumenterades så att lärare och elever ska kunna använda dem i slöjdundervisningen.

AbstractThe purpose of this work is to try to find out how young people's reading habits among students look at different types of secondary school, ie. both theoretical and practical, and what factors might encourage them to read more. My questions have been; do young people read today? Is there any difference between city, gender or program? What can a teacher do to inspire young people to read more? I have made a questionnaire survey among different students at two different high schools in Skaraborg. The first school is a high school located in a medium sized town, where I made inquiries to the scientific program, social program, Business and Administration Program and the Electricity Program.

The aim of our study has been to see how DIK-forum represents the occupational groups that are represented in the frames of the trade journal. We have, to find out the phenomenon, done a content analysis by looking into 18 numbers of DIK-forum from year 2006 and 2007. The 18 strategically chosen journals was enough to give us a statistic result that we later on could generalize over those two years of DIK-forum. Totally there were 818 articles, news items and vacant advertisements that made the central point of this study. By these materials have we studied the representation of the occupational groups to find out if there were any over- and/or under represented groups, and also if the publications of the material were directed to the students or to the occupational groups in these trade journals.In our study the results shows that the trade journal DIK-forum does not represent all the occupational groups at the same level.

På vilka sätt kan kartor hjälpa oss i dagens samhälle? De flesta av oss har tillgång till en karta med GPS när som helst, i våra telefoner. Behöver vi kartan i vårt dagliga liv på andra sätt än genom denna (ganska) exakta positionering? Det är några av frågorna som ställs i detta examensarbete, där kartan undersöks som metod och byggare av kunskap. I detta arbete har mitt intresse för kartor slagits samman med ett hantverksnära arbetssätt.

3In the last couple of decades there has not happened much inthe ?farriery?- department. The work procedure, methods andfarrier´s tools have stayed the same over time, which have ledto a huge workload that is wearing the active participants out.So think if you were able to ease the working process of horseshoeingfor a farrier. The farriery is still first and foremost aprofession based on handicraft that has to relay on the farrier´sgood memory, sight and sense. The workplaces for a farrieris most of the time at the hiring horse owner`s stables, whichmakes it harder for the farrier´s to have influence over theirworking situation.
