The purpose of this Master's thesis is to study how children's and youth librarians mediate non-fiction books in public libraries. Our overarching research question is as follows: to which extent, how, and for what reasons do children's and youth librarians mediate non-fiction? We have chosen to limit our study to the practice of booktalking.In order to answer questions on extent we conducted a quantitative survey of booktalking children's and youth librarians in Skåne. To answer our other questions on behaviour and attitudes we conducted observations and interviews with six librarians who include non-fiction in booktalks for children in primary school. As a way to study behaviour we examined librarians' selection criteria and methods.

Jag har undersökt läroböcker i religionskunskap för gymnasiet från bokförlagen Gleerups, Natur och Kultur och från Almqvist och Wiksell för att se hur fakta kring trosuppfattningar i de abrahamitiska religionerna framställs. Undersökningens mål var att visa på hur framställningen av de abrahamitiska religionernas syn på Gud beskrivs, hur deras heliga skrifter skildras och hur och varför de firar sina viktiga högtider samt se hur religionsutövandet i Sverige framställs. Undersökningen syftade också till att se om bokförlagen följer läroplanerna i sina beskrivningar av dessa. Jag har genom kvalitativ textanalys gjort en kritisk granskning av läroböckernas framställning av de begrepp som frågeställningarna innehåller. Framställningen av de abrahamitiska religionernas gudsbild är likartad.

In this study ? Just a girlfriend who lives far away? ? I interview fifteen girls about their experiences with computer mediated relationships. From a queer theoretical perspective I examine how these girls do and talk about their relationships, in relation to norms about relationships and sexuality as well as notions about online and offline.My aim is to discuss in which ways the performing of these relationships both reproduce and challenge norms about relationships and sexuality. The girls I interview attempt in different ways to show that doing relationships online is just as ?normal? as doing them offline.

Titel:Kassaflödesanalyser i börsnoterade företagSeminariedatum:2003-12-15Ämne:Extern redovisningFörfattare:Pervan SamraHandledare:Per Magnu's Andersson, Carl R HellbergSökord:Årsredovisning, Kassaflödesanaly's, finansieringsanaly's, RR 7Syfte:Syfte med uppsatsen är att analysera och beskriva hur svenska börsnoterade företag tillämpar RR 7 i sina kassaflödesanalyser och om jämförelser mellan dessa företag är möjliga.Genomförande:Genom att studera valda företag's årsredovisningar har jag undersökt hur företag tillämpar Redovisningsrådet's rekommendationer och vilka upplysningar de lämnar i kassaflödesanalyser. Resultat: Granskning av kassaflödesanalyser visar att det är svårt att göra jämförelser mellan kassaflödesanalyser eftersom företagen väljer att följa RR 7 med de anpassningar som är nödvändiga med hänsyn till företaget's verksamhet..

The purpose of this study is to get increased knowledge of young people and their experience and thoughts about existential questions, and if the adults in Junior highschool take them into consideration.

The essay aims to show n interpretation of Vampyr and Ordet; seen from a viewpoint Kierkegaards christian existentialism can enhance the understanding of mentioned movies. Central notions from Ks philosophy are explained and then the author points to examples of how this corresponds with the essence of the two movies.The argumentation is based on Ks thoughts on faith and human existence. Other theories concerning Dreyers movies, and to some extent his background, is also discussed.Finally the author concludes that he was right in his hypothesis: that it is possible to show an influence from Kierkegaards christian, existentialistic thoughts in the two movies.Moreover the author thinks that the chosen perspective works as a complement to other written material on the movies and that other writers on the subject have some problems summing up the contents of the movies from their different perspectives.The final conclusion is thus that an interpretation of the movies from a Kierkegaardian viewpoint increases the understanding of the same movies.

The purpose of this Bachelor thesis is to examine how user-friendly the OPAC of the Märsta public library is considered to be.Theoretical basis are HCI and Allwoods definition of usability. Issues are: Is the OPAC suited to its task? Is the OPAC user-friendly? How well does a user accept the OPAC? and What degree of competence is shown by users of the OPAC? The source material consists of six interviews in the form of .avi files. The method I have chosen is qualitative semi-structured interview form. The result is that, based on Carl Martin Allwood?s defini-tion and with exception for the using of help-resources, the usability of Märsta?s library OPAC can be considered less good..

This master thesis is about a place that has a story to tell. Olsson?s garden came about when Mr Carl Oscar Olsson acquired a piece of land in Landalabergen in the beginning of the 1930's and at that time he started his industrious work of uniting much of Sweden's flora in his garden. Since the very beginning Olsson's garden has played a lot of different rolls in a variety of situations and meant different things for different people. Today one can find traces from Mr Olsson's life and deeds in the garden.

This study has been conducted in order to try to clarify how one as a piano teacher, by the choice of teaching material and method of teaching, can influence the process of learning. The study deals with novice teaching and more specifically first semester teaching. I have studied three books, their methods and how they take on the task of introducing music and piano playing to novice students. I studied three groups of novice piano students during the autumn of 2005. For twelve lessons each class worked with one of the following three books: "Vi spelar piano 1" by Carl-Bertil Agnestig, "Pianogehör 1" by Åsa Söderqvist- Spering and "Spela piano med ADAM".

This study is a discourse analyse of texts concerning the criminalizing of bestiality andonthological questions around it. This essay has been written as an qualitative analyse of three media texts: Swedish and Danish animal protection laws, interpellation of criminalizing bestiality in Swedish Parliament as well as the discussion forum, "Nordisk Zoofil Forum".The study indicates that bestiality can be understood as inacceptable through discourses about normality, naturalness, moral, sexual pleasure or discourses which comprehend sexual abnormalities as a consequence of each other. On the other side bestiality can be understood as unaccebtable through discourses about sexual needs, sexual identities, love or sexual pleasure. Also the idea about one practising bestiality seems to be gendered as a male person..

Meningen med denna uppsats är att genom en jämförande analys utforska vad dessa två verk från början av 1980-talet säger om samtiden i fråga om politiska och feministiska aspekter. Uppsatsen börjar med beskrivningar och analyser av verkan var för sig där det konstateras att Kristina Abelli Elander kritiserar köns- och familjeroller medan Erla Thorarinsdottir tar upp kampen för fred och kärleken till sitt hemland. Därefter följer en jämförande analys där det bland annat tas upp likheter och skillnader mellan verkan i fråga om tillvägagångssätt samt jämför detta med hur man kan ha gått till väga bara ett decennium tidigare..

The aim of this study was to give an insight of the construction of girls in their relationships with friends and lovers in the Swedish magazine Julia. The magazine turns to girls of age nine to fourteen. The research questions were 1) What is the construction of the girls in their relationships with friends and lovers about in Julia? 2) How are girls constructed in their relationships with friends and lovers? Three issues of the magazine from the winter of 2014 were selected as material for the study. Critical discourse analysis (Fairclough, 1992, 2010) was the point of departure in the analysis.

Syfte: Uppsatsens syfte är att få en klar bild av familjernas syn på nepotism, samt om denna syn förändrats över tiden och i så fall hur. Metod: Vår uppsats är en kvalitativ undesökning av de två fallföretagen Bonnier AB och Carl Aller Etablissement A/S. Vi har genomfört ett antal intervjuer som vi har relaterat till relevant managementlitteratur. Slutsatser: Vi har funnit att fallföretagen aktivt arbetar med ägarbegreppet och har en syn på nepotismens fördelar såsom; ansvar, engagemang, långsiktighet, förtroende och kunskap, samt på nepotismens nackdelar såsom; favoritism, groupthink och rivalitet. familjernas syn på nepotism har förändrats från att vara icke-existerande, till att vara medveten om familjeägandets möjligheter och fallgropar..
