Internetanvändande är idag vardag för många barn och unga. Barnen är medlemmar på och använder communitys, de chattar och skickar mail till varandra samt använder snabbmeddelandeklienter såsom msn. Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur 41 stycken tolvåringar på en skola belägen i en mindre ort i Skåne använder internet, både hemma och i skolan samt att ta reda på hur skolan använder internet i undervisningen och vilken information skolan har gett tolvåringarna om internet. För att få svar på dessa frågor gjordes enkäter med 41 stycken tolvåringar samt intervjuer med deras lärare och rektor. I enkätundersökningen framgår det att en övervägande del av tolvåringar både har dator och internet hemma samt att många av dessa surfar helt själv.

The purpose of this dissertation is to examine the occurrence of Scandinavia in the then daily English newspaper Yorkshire Herald during the First World War. The dissertation looks into what the Yorkshire Herald wrote about Scandinavia in the parts of the newspaper where the newspaper´s own opinion was given. This approach is connected to the theoretical idea that the British local and regional press was politically free during the war period. The dissertation also looks into the number of news telegrams etcetera that concerned Scandinavia during the period.The result shows that Scandinavia, both as a whole as well as the three individual countries, was mentioned about 700 times, split over about 600 telegrams and articles, during the examined period stretching from the first of August 1914 to the eleventh of November 1918. Material that gives the newspaper´s opinion regarding issues concerning Scandinavia can be found six times during the period.

One of the essential needs of human beings is to be involved in a social context.

Utvecklingen av teknik och tekniska hjälpmedel har lett till att det finns fler sätt att lära ut på än de traditionella klassrumslektionerna. Studenterna behöver inte vara bundna till en specifik tid eller plats, när lärandet kan göras mobilt. Syftet med detta examensarbete är att undersöka hur studenter vid distanskurser upplever att kommunikationen fungerar samt vilka för- och nackdelar de finner. Åtta intervjupersoner har intervjuats i arbetet och de utförda intervjuerna har transkriberats och tolkats. Det framkom att intervjupersonerna till största del använde e-mail och icke-verbala chattar för att kommunicera med varandra och med lärare.

This Masters Thesis includes a survey of recreational habits and the attitudes towards forests of the people of Sätra, a suburb of the city of Gävle. The study also includes the planning and design of a forest suited for education in the same part of the city.

The project aims to survey the recreational habits of the general public in the regions of Dalarna and Gävleborg. Tätortsnära skog is focused on cities with a population of more than 20 000 inhabitants, of which Gävle, Sandviken, Falun and Borlänge all fall within the category.

AbstractThis is the paper you should read if you want to know more about working in team. Teamwork is a way of working and it increases more and more among societies and companies today, but it is not quite clear what the diffrences is from working in groups. We have in this paper tried to clear out the differences between groups and team, and we have also tried to give an oversight of how to work in team in organizations. Cultures of organizations, leadership and power and also development of qualifications are big parts of an organization´s daily work, and we have explained these concepts from a teamperspective.We have, in this paper, done interviews with people that have been in contact with the central consepts that we use. And then we have analyzed their answers with help from litterature, which we have closely studied, thereafter we have presented our results.

Syftet med denna studie är att ta reda på hur de utvalda modebutikerna arbetar med butikskommunikation och varuplacering för att påverka kundens köpbeslutsprocess. Vi vill även undersöka hur och om kunden är medveten om detta.Denna studie är utförd med kvalitativ metod med inslag av kvantitativ. Vi har använt oss av en abduktiv ansats och genom intervjuer med butikschefer samt kundintervjuer tillsammans med observationer av kunder i butik har vi arbetat fram vårt empiriska material. All insamling av data har skett i Kalmar bortsett från en mail-intervju med en butiks huvudkontor i Stockholm.Alla butiker använder sig av butikskommunikation på ett eller annat sätt. Då konsumenterna idag blir allt mer individualiserade tenderar de att vilja uträtta sina ärenden på egen hand.

I januari 2009 sände Kalla fakta ett program om hur gäss plockas på dun levande. Dunet används för att fylla bland annat täcken och kuddar som säljs i Sverige. En rad stora svenska och internationella företag blev omnämnda i dokumentären som ledde till att många företag i dunbranschen drog på sig negativ publicitet.Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur Åhléns och Jysk har hanterat den negativa publiciteten och hur Kungsängen har lyckats att ta avstånd från den negativa publiciteten.En undersökningsmodell har byggts upp med hjälp av teorier inom bland annat krishantering som sedan används för att jämföra företagens olika arbetsprocesser i samband med gåsdunskandalen. Modellen är uppbyggd i tre faser: krisförberedelse, krishantering och analys/utveckling efter krisen.Metoden vi använde oss av är av kvalitativ art med telefonintervjuer och frågor via mail som insamlingsmetod.Många likheter kom fram under arbetets gång gällande företagens sätt att hantera en publicitetskris jämfört med undersökningsmodellen. Undersökningsmodellen kan således användas som riktlinjer för att hantera en publicitetskris.
