In this study, some aspects of communication that are creating problems in a chosen forest conservation case are explored. Focus is on how the manager of a forest experience how he is treated during a formal decision of conservation. The paper also gives introduction to communication theory as well as to present forest policies in Sweden. Explanations of the most common concepts and terms in forest conservation is presented and such a understanding is necessary if the reader is to acquire enlightment from the material and the following discussion. This paper focus on a conflict between the county administrative board, a Swedish regional authority, and a private forest-manager. This is a case where the manager feels that the authority is forcing a sale of land, because the forest is being turned into a conservation area. The problems are not just economical, the manager feels mistreated and left out of the discussion, and the negotiation is long and problematic as shown in the interview and the case study. In the study, an in-depth interview is made with the manager of the forest, and a case study has been made based on the documents in the case attained from the county administrative board.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects ofparticipation in an integrated intensive stuttering program (IST) on stutteringbehavior, intelligibility and communication attitude, at individual and grouplevels. Five children aged eight to twelve years participated in the study.Stuttering behavior and intelligibility were judged by two independentstudents in speech and language pathology based on a total of eight videorecordings, before, during and after therapy.

SyfteSyftet med den här uppsatsen var att undersöka om elever på gymnasieskolans Estetiska program inriktning musik upplevde jämställdhet i ensembleundervisningen. Eleverna på fyra olika skolor inom Skaraborg, årskurs två, har fått svara på en enkät där frågorna utgick ifrån syftet samt våra frågeställningar, vilka var: Bemöts tjejer och killar på samma sätt? Upplever eleverna att vissa instrument är förknippade med killar respektive tjejer? Hur speglas de ?traditionella könsrollerna? i musikundervisningen?MetodVi gjorde en kvantiativ studie och samlade in ett stort antal fakta genom en enkätundersökning med hög standardisering som byggde på påståenden med några öppna frågor, fasta svarsalternativ samt kommentarsfält där eleven kunde yttra sig ytterligare. Vi hade även en öppen fråga om förebilder och varför man valt just det instrumentet man valt. Avslutningsvis fick även eleven redogöra för om han/hon tyckte att olika instrument hade en manlig/kvinnlig eller könsneutral ställning.

The aim of this thesis is to investigate how a valuation model of a Private Equity firm is interpreted into a management control system within the company's different organizational levels. A case study was developed based on the infra-net company Eltel. The management control systems developed by Malmi and Brown (2008)(1) was used to characterize the control systems at each organizational level. The building blocks of this system are planning, cybernetic, reward/compensation, administrative and culture. Miller and O'Learys (2007)(2) theory of mediating instruments and technology roadmaps was applied to analyze the mediating process of the valuation model.

Sensory marketingAn effective instrument for libraries? We are living in a world of constant communication and information and because of that, marketing in general seem to have no distinctive effect. Consumers become overwhelmed by all the advertising messages. Due to this, it is clear that organizations like libraries must create a deeper and more personal connection to increase user satisfaction and foster the use of services, among both users and potential users. One way to achieve this is to make use of all the emotional elements of a product or a service.

Längre tillbaka i tiden så var lantbrukarna garanterade ett pris för vetet de producerade genom statlig reglering. När marknaden släpptes fri så tillkom prisrisken på det man producerar då marknaden prissätter varan genom tillgång och efterfrågan. Detta innebar att man utöver väderrisken även har fått in en prisrisk i sitt företag vilket leder till fluktuerande intäkter från ett år till ett annat. Ett av de instrument som idag står till buds att använda för att minska svängningarna av intäkterna mellan åren är att använda optioner som en försäkring, vilket innebär att man är garanterad ett lägsta pris för veten man producerar men samtidigt är med på en eventuell uppgång i vetepriset. Syftet med arbetet var att ta reda på om de lantbrukare som idag använder veteoptioner har en uttalad strategi och om de i så fall följer den. Arbetet är avgränsat till att enbart innefatta lantbrukare från Skåne. För att komma i kontakt med lantbrukare som använder optioner som instrument för prissäkring så har vi varit i kontakt med Handelsbanken som förmedlat lantbrukare som skulle kunna tänka sig ställa upp på en intervju. Resultaten är hämtade från materialet vi fått genom intervjuerna från åtta stycken lantbrukare som visar att det inte alltid finns några klara strategier när man handlar med optioner. Diagramet ovan visar att de som har en strategi och följer den prissäkrar mer varje år.

The integration of the Internet in our society has shaped alot of the things we do in our lives. The Web allows us to achieve certain things directly through our computers, such as reading the paper and paying our bills. But this integration has also lead to another interesting change. Activists have begun to unload their operations onto the Net instead of holding on to the more traditional demonstrations performed in squares. This study aims to look into the world of cyberactivism and examine how cyberactivists experience the way activism has changed as a result of using the Internet.

Student recruitment is a subject that seems to be forgotten in the theory of event communication. Yet the area has some specific reoccurring features. Our purpose was to examine these specific features and how to work with these in the best way, and also see how to get the most out of the event communication to the young at event and fairs. Special features we have looked at are the student ambassadors ands their impact, the meaning of a give-away and also if there are any essential factors to get in contact with the young at fairs and events, and if new technology had an important role to play in the area.Our research has been inductive, and therefore, we have created our own theory and reflected it to the larger topic of event communication and its theories. Our research method has been triangular, both quantitative and qualitative; interviews with those who work with student recruitment, and surveys to young people in upper secondary school.Our study showed the importance of student ambassadors and their specific task to be nice, friendly and outgoing.

This report is about helping Q-Med AB in Uppsala to start its implementation of uncertainty of measurements analyses in their manufacturing department. Prior to this, the company relied solely on personal experience or did not take this uncertainty into consideration at all during different kind of measurements, which means that some of the processes that the company previously believed were within specified acceptance limits, will actually fail when considering these sources of uncertainties.Q-Med AB needed some sort of instruction to help the company, in a systematic way, to investigate different types of disorders that are affecting all kinds of measurements. This instruction includes a short summary about measurements and uncertainty of measurements in general and a detailed procedure about how these uncertainties are going to be handled in their daily work.The goal was to be able to use this instruction to systematically locate, eliminate (when possible) and analyze all kinds of disorders when measuring. Q-Med is using a lot of different types of instruments when measuring different types of quantities, including temperature, mass, pressure and density. This instruction will hereafter be used for every instrument, regardless of quantity and type of instrument.The instruction is tested through 4 different kinds of measurements, for mass, temperature and humidity.

Det har de senaste årtiondena skett en ökning av den internationella handeln vilket har medfört en internationell kapitalmarknad. Användningen av finansiella instrument har ökat och det har uppstått ett behov av enhetliga regler för redovisningen av dessa.
