Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka specialpedagogers tankar kring hur förskolans arbetssätt kan anpassas för att ge stöd till barn som far illa och underlätta tidig upptäckt.Som metod har semistrukturerad intervju använts. Sex specialpedagoger med grundutbildning som förskollärare deltog. Som hjälpmedel användes fallbeskrivningar att reflektera kring och resonera om.Studien visar att specialpedagogerna i undersökningen anser att förskolan spelar en viktig roll för barn som far illa och deras utveckling. Personalens förhållningssätt till barnen och deras föräldrar är avgörande för att skapa goda relationer.Studien visar även att anmälningsfrekvensen i förskolan när det gäller barn som far illa är låg. Vanliga anledningar till detta är obehagskänsla och bristande kunskap hos personalen.

Denna uppsats är skriven på uppdrag av Peter Hellman, Senior Adviser på Hellman & Partners. Uppsatsen avser att visa att med hjälp av sociala medier som marknadsföringsverktyg kan företag interagera med kunden på ett nytt revolutionerande sätt. Dock är det långt ifrån alla turistföretag som insett potentialen med att använda sig av sociala medier i sin marknadsföring.Med vår undersökning hoppas vi kunna bidra till en djupare förståelse om varför turistföretag använder sig av sociala medier och på vilket sätt. Det finns mycket forskning om sociala medier som marknadsförings- och kommunikationskanal men det råder fortfarande brist på forskning om hur turistföretag kan utnyttja kanalen till sin fördel.Vi inledde undersökningen med att göra en litteraturstudie där vi studerade resultat av tidigare forskning. För att uppfylla syftet med undersökningen har vi använt oss av ett kvalitativt tillvägagångssätt och utfört fyra intervjuer med hotell och researrangörer.
