Title: From preschool to preschool in school ? Expectations between parents, teachers and childrenAuthor: Maria Rask GradinMentor: Niclas JärvkloTerm: Spring 2012 AbstractThe aim of this study is to draw attention to the expectations between parents, children and teachers at preschools and teachers in the preschool in the school at the transition to preschool in the school. I also want to know how the mission is defined, and how it is met. Two preschools and two preschool in the school are the focus of my investigation. I interviewed teachers and parents, sent surveys to parents, observed children playing school and interviewed children about their thoughts and expectations for the preschool in the school there.The survey results show that all parties, except perhaps the children who did not express an opinion thereon, wants better cooperation between the preschool and school.

The aim of this bachelor thesis is to through a theoretical analyze, investigate the conditions and the challenges for a consolidated democracy in Egypt from 1952 until after the revolution of 2011. The central question in this thesis is what opportunities and challenges are there for the democratic consolidation in Egypt, with respect to civic, political and economic conditions. How have the conditions developed between 1952 and 2011? How has the transition government/military government handled the central problems in the transitions phase after 2011? The theory used in this analysis is Linz and Stepans famous five arenas (the political society, the economic society, the civil society, the bureaucracy and the state of rule, whit focus on the three first). Through a qualitative case study we have analyzed the conditions in Egypt from 1952 to after the revolution 2011.The empirical material shows that the arenas in Egypt are both historically and current very weak, and they are not supporting democratic consolidation as they are challenged by several enormous problems.

Uppsatsen syfte var att studera spädbarnsdödlighet i tre olikartade västsvenska miljöer under två perioder på 1800-talet. Områdena är Bollebygd, Morlanda och Karl Johans församling i Göteborg och representerar alla olika miljöer (Bollebygd ? landsbygd, Morlanda ? kust och Karl Johan - stadsmiljö) där spädbarnsdödligheten enligt tidigare forskning har varit av olika omfattning och karaktär. Den primära frågeställningen är hur de yttre omständigheterna påverkar de allra minsta barnen. Ett sekundärt syfte var att försöka utröna vilka uppfödningsvanor som var dominerande.

The aim of our study is to gain increased knowledge and understanding of how young people who has been sentenced to closed institutional care experience their own possibility to participate and influence the transition and aftercare, and which, if any, importance they believe this has for their readjustment to society.

The data consist of interviews with four young persons, of which three, at the time for our interviews, where in the transitionphase, and one had left the institution a few years ago.

När en kvinna drabbas av bröstcancer förändras hennes förutsättningar att leva livet som hon tidigare gjort. Denna livsomvälvande händelse är början på en transitionsprocess där kvinnan behöver lära sig att acceptera och hantera det som hänt genom att omvärdera sin uppfattning om livet, relationer och självet för att ha möjlighet att uppnå hälsa. Syftet med vår litteraturstudie var att beskriva upplevelser av transition hos kvinnor som lever med bröstcancer. Åtta artiklar analyserades med manifest kvalitativ innehållsanalys, vilket resulterade i fem kategorier: Att ha svårt att acceptera och hantera sjukdomen och livsödet: Att fundera över meningen med sjukdomen och livet: Att relationer och sätt att se på relationer förändras: Att förändras och få en ny syn på sig själv: Att få ett förändrat liv och välja att hantera det som sker. I resultatet framkom kvinnors svårigheter att acceptera det som hänt.

Being a student in the educational system is in itself a challenging exercise, considering the various parts that may matter in different extent for the students. There is a syllabus, there are different backgrounds and contexts for each student and there is also the knowledge in the subject to consider. This study sets out to explore to which extent teachers and students reflect about the transition from public school to upper secondary school/high school, specifically in the context of History as subject. What do they think about it and how do they work with it?By interviewing five teachers and letting 94 students in upper secondary school completing a survey about this subject (the transition), I can conclude that the matter is complex, both for students and teachers, however still a significant and important issue to discuss.

In November 2008 the National Library of Sweden decidedto switch classification system from SAB to Dewey decimalclassification. SAB had then been the main classificationsystem in the whole of the Swedish library field for 87 years.Included into the decision was not just the nationalbibliography but also the research libraries of Sweden. Thisdecision was in alignment with a West European tendency tochange in favor of the internationally well-spreadclassification system Dewey in order to co-operate more inthe cataloguing process. The purpose of this study takenplace in the autumn and winter of 2013 is to examine howlibrarians involved in the transition feel about what differentways the implementation has affected the research libraryorganizations. We also aim to study the librarians? view onthe involvement of the research libraries into the decision ofthe changeover.

AbstractWork to develop the Eurocodes started in 1975 by the European Commission adopted a program to eliminate trade barriers within the construction area. The goal was to create common European design standards that would replace the member countries' own rules. Eurocodes will replace The National Board of Housing Building and Planning, National Rail, The National Road Administration and other agencies' calculation rules for the buildings structures. The transition to the use of Eurocodes looks like this:Eurocodes set to Swedish standards  between 2002 ? 2007They can be used parallel with national standards 2006 - 2009 The total transition is at the end of 2010/2011.Right now is going on a lot of work for replacement of the existing standards to Eurocodes.  The transition to the new calculations` standards, many construction companies and consulting firms facing a big changes and competitions.

De senaste åren har sociala medier fått allt större betydelse i människors liv. Det diskuteras om det till och med har varit en del av förutsättningarna för omvälvande sociala förändringar i olika länder. Det mesta av det som skrivits om sociala medier och hur de används rör dock vinstdrivande företag eller uppseendeväckande protester. Mycket lite har skrivits om hur ideella organisationer och sociala rörelser med en mer låg profil använder dem. Detta examensarbete syftar därför till att undersöka hur moderna sociala rörelser använder sociala medier i sitt arbete.

Varje år tar cirka 3700 sjuksköterskeexamen i Sverige. Efter examen påbörjas en transition från student till arbetande sjuksköterska. Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att beskriva den nyutexaminerade sjuksköterskans upplevelse av denna transition. Studien baserades på tolv vetenskapliga artiklar som analyserades med en kvalitativ manifest innehållsanalys. Analysen resulterade i fem slutkategorier: att ha förväntningar på vården och sjuksköterskerollen, men bli besviken på verkligheten, att känna sig otillräckligt förberedd och det är överväldigande med allt nytt, att känna stress, rädsla och oro över det ansvar som vilar på axlarna, att känna sig ensam och sakna stöd samt att bli trygg och bekväm i sin sjuksköterskeroll genom att lotsas in i arbetet och bli en del av teamet.
