The purpose to this survey is to map out the affordances available in the outdoor environment of one preschool. This has been executed through three episodes of observing children at that preschool during their outdoor play. All visible affordances has been written down and later on summarized in different themes where the most interesting meeting places in the outdoor environment at the pre-school have been described. The result of the study shows what the children at this preschool do in their outdoor environment. It also shows the importance of the arrangement of material and environment in order to be able to support childrens play.

This thesis is based on two different parts. First a presentation and a brief insight of the most comprehensive picture educational structures/theories and their various branches in Sweden from the post war period. Secondly a presentation of my artistic masters project Fantasy World, where I together with a group of children aged 7-12 freely created an artwork in the form of a world of its own, in sculptural expression. The idea behind the thesis has been to study how the perception of picture education and children?s creation has been in the recent decades and how different picture educational theories looks like and then to compare with the idea behind my project and how it may look in practice..

Denna rapport berör ämnet stegutrymning från flerbostadshus med eller utan hjälp av räddningstjänsten. En förstudie har gjorts av Brandforsk där bland annat räddningstjänsten som den alternativa utrymningsvägen har undersökts. Syftet med detta arbete är att undersöka räddningstjänstens olika möjligheter och begränsningar samt att undersöka hur det mänskliga beteendet vid brand är, särskilt med avseende på de regler som styr hur byggnader ska utformas. Olika personer har uttalat sig om räddningstjänsten som den alternativa utrymningsvägen. Bland annat genom att påpeka att det inte alltid fungerar i praktiken och att bemanningen inte alltid är tillräcklig hos räddningstjänsterna.

In December 22, 2010, the hockey clubs AIK and Djurgården played against each other in front of an audience of more than 11 000 people in Ericsson Globe Arena, Stockholm. Although it was one of the biggest games of the year, afterwards no one was talking about the actual game on the ice. The reason; several times during the game, hooligans from both sides started big quarrels and the hockey dome felt more like a war scene than a place for a hockey game. From a branding point of view, and along with similar incidents from the past, the night in December did not create a good situation for AIK and their image.  Therefore, in this essay I want to investigate how AIK communicated through the crisis. I also want to evaluate whether their communication was good or bad from the perspective of different crisis communication theories.The essay?s research questions are:How did media describe the crisis and AIK´s part in it?What effect did AIK´s previous history of similar problem have on the ongoing crisis?How did AIK communicate through the crisis?How was AIK´s image affected by the crisis?What did AIK do well/what could AIK have done better?To be able to answer these questions, several news articles from the sports paper ?Hockeyexpressen? has been analyzed as well as a text from AIK itself.

The goal of this paper is to provide a model for a sustainable electricity system to an island, in the Pacific Ocean near the equator.The method which has been used is to model supply and demand of electricity in the computer program Stella, through the creation of a dynamic system that balances them against each other. The result from the model will then be used to calculate the electricity price per kWh for the island.The result of the work is that electricity from solar energy is comparable with electricity produced from oil, if the oil pays for all its external costs, and the potential for pumped hydro storage plants is located. It also requires that consumers of electricity can be their own producers to avoid the expenditure of tax and reducing the cost of distribution. But since oil is a finite resource and has had a rising cost in recent years, while solar energy has had a declining cost, perhaps this will be a more competitive solution in the future.

This memo discusses and problematizes the work of organizing and cataloging the archive of the Environmental Advisory Council.The archive mainly consists of records concerning meetings which the Environmental Advisory Council has participated in, but also records concerning different tasks of the council and a few records concerning the coun-cil itself.The overriding problem, which is discussed in the final part of this memo, is the lacking knowledge about the creator of the archive and the creation of the archive itself and how this effects the work of ordering and catalog-ing. An attempt is made to evaluate the archive as a source of information to the Environmental Advisory Coun-cil and its work.This is a one year master?s thesis in Archival Science.

Inledning: Modebranschen har en g?ng i tiden betraktats som att vara h?llbar d? det exempelvis producerades plagg i sm? kvantiteter. Chinnaduraim (2023) konstaterar att modeindustrin har gjort betydande framsteg inom h?llbart mode, men hon p?pekar att det ?terst?r mycket arbete. Vilka ?tg?rder kan modef?retag vidta f?r att fr?mja h?llbar utveckling inom branschen? F?r att fr?mja h?llbar utveckling inom modebranschen ?r det avg?rande att modef?retag engagerar sig inom de centrala teman: Cirkul?r Fashion, Greenwashing och Grassroot Movement. Syfte: Studiens syfte ?r att unders?ka hur modef?retag kan jobba med h?llbar utveckling inom modebranschen. Metod: En kvalitativ metod har till?mpats d?r studiens datainsamling best?r av semi-strukturerade intervjuer samt offline observationer. Slutsats: V?ra resultat tyder p? att modef?retag borde till?mpa CF-modellen d? den p?pekar hur modef?retag borde endast v?lja ett typ av material f?r att underl?tta kl?dernas demonteringsprocess.

Women ledaers and profitability, is there a correlation? Earlier research show different outcome on the correlation between women leaders and profitability. A Swedish consultant firm, Caran has a belief that more women leaders would create more financial profit, we ask us if that is the true situation. Using two different IC measurement methods we have shown the difficulties in calculate intagible resources, which methods that can/ can not be used and if women leders create financial value. We found the women leaders in Caran to add more value per dollar spent on the woman leaders than the value added per dollar spent on men leaders.

AbstractSweden applies two different private international statutes to establish which country´s domestic law that is applicable in a certain situation regarding succession and will with connection to two or more states. The first private international law is the one used in relations between Sweden and the other Nordic states. The other private international law is the one used between Sweden and all other states than the Nordic ones. A proposal for a Regulation that regulate jurisdiction, applicable law, recognition and enforcement of decisions and authentic instruments in matters of succession and the creation of a European Certificate of Succession has been prepared by the Commission and was published in October 2009. This regulation will, if it enters into force, modify the situation in Sweden for applicable law on a situation regarding succession and will.

Studiens syfte var att beskriva och analysera i vilken utsträckning och hur de 50 största svenska företagen använder sociala medier i arbetet med deras arbetsgivarvarumärke gentemot studenter och andra potentiella arbetstagare.Det är en beskrivande studie som använt en flerfaldig forskningsstrategi där kvantitativ innehållsanalys, kvalitativ innehållsanalys och semi-strukturerade intervjuer använts för att uppnå studiens syfte.Resultatet visade att användandet av sociala medier i arbetet med deras arbetsgivarvarumärke gentemot potentiella arbetstagare är lågt bland Sveriges 50 största företag. Endast 18 av dessa använder någon form av social media i detta syfte, och när det kommer till de företag som endast vänder sig till studenter är det endast 4 företag av 50. Men det står under ständig utveckling, både till antalet företag som använder det och sett till hur det används. Olika typer av sociala medier bidrar med olika möjligheter för att stärka arbetsgivarvarumärket, vilket stödjer forskning som menar på att en kombination av flera rekryteringsaktiviteter ger bäst effekt.Förslag till fortsatt forskning är att utföra en liknande studie om något år för att kunna följa utvecklingen i detta ämne. Även en förklarande studie för att förklara vilka effekter sociala medier har för arbetsgivarvarumärket vore av vetenskapligt intresse.Detta är den första beskrivande studien som undersöker i vilken utsträckning och hur sociala medier används i arbetet arbetsgivarvarumärket gentemot potentiella arbetstagare bland ett större antal svenska företag..

In a time of fierce global competition, where an immense amount of commercial messages reaches consumers around the clock and in every conceivable context, companies constantly seek to find new ways to reach out with their product. One way to do so, that has increased in popularity in recent years, is the use of gift bags. A gift bag may contain samples, miniature products and even products in full size, as a rule from several different brands, which the recipient receives free of charge. The gift bag is typically distributed at some form of event, such as store openings, fashion shows, theme parties and the like, and the receiver of the gift bag can then evaluate the content without any obligation to purchase. The ambition of the companies that choose to participate with their products in a gift bag is, of course, that the recipient will find their products satisfactory, and ideally, that he or she will continue to consume the brand in the future.There are numerous scientific research contributions related to the use of free samples, but very few that concern the gift bag, where a collection of samples from different sources and brands appear.

Idag är samhället väldigt miljöinriktat och allt fler människor uppskattar ett utbud av hållbara resurser för en hållbar utveckling. Många företag tillämpar detta i sitt varumärkesbyggande jämsides med andra strategier och faktorer för att uppnå ett starkare varumärke.Vi har valt att avgränsa oss till elbolaget Telge Energi som befinner sig konkurrenspräglad bransch för att undersöka hur de byggt upp sitt varumärke. Ett av till att vi valt Telge Energi är på grund av att företaget gått ut med att de har blivit utsedda Sveriges grönaste elbolag.1Förutom att vi har god access till företaget är ytterligare ett att de även säger sig erbjuda förnyelsebar el och utmanar därmed de större konkurrenterna inom den svenska elbranschen.Med utgångspunkt i att få ökad förståelse för Telge Energis varumärkesbyggande har som mål att belysa viktiga faktorer och strategier som företaget tillämpat och som företag kan inspireras av. Dessa faktorer och strategier som vi har fastställt ur studien även försökt illustrera i en egen modell. Dessutom har vi även tagit fasta på brister i Energis varumärkesbyggande i relation till vår valda teoretiska referensram, som kan vara hjälp och användning för företaget i framtiden.Den teoretiska referensramen är främst baserad på David A.

Nordmaling is a small muncipality that has gotten a lot of critic in media over the last two years. In order to regain a good reputation and to communicate a strong message towards external groups, Nordmaling have decided to develop a branding platform that can represent the organization in both external and internal communications. In order to develop a brand the organization must understand its identity.The purpose of the study was to examine the employees? thoughts of their organization in order to be able to define the organizational identity and give recommendations of core values that the organization can apply to their brand. To understand how the employees perceive their organization and what they think the organization stands for, the main focus was to study their view on values, standards, goals and vision of the organization through focus interviews and a survey.

Enligt Räddningsverkets statistik har 85 % av de svenska hushållen en fungerande brandvarnare. Hur väl fungerande dessa är efter en tid i jämförelse med nya brandvarnare är dock okänt. Därför genomfördes denna undersökning där 20 stycken brandvarnare samlades ihop från hushåll i Luleå och Boden. Dessa 20 varnare blev sedan jämförda med 12 stycken helt nya varnare. Samtliga prövades på en hastigt uppflammande brand för att simulera ett brandscenario som kan inträffa i många av de lättantändliga material som finns i de moderna hemmen.
