Syftet med detta examensarbete var att belysa lärares perspektiv på ett flerstämmigt klassrum. Fyra frågeställningar ställdes upp kring dialog i undervisningen, nämligen: 1) Lärares uppfattningar om dialog, 2) Lärares metoder i ett dialogiskt klassrum, 3) Lärarens betydelse i ett dialogiskt klassrum och 4) Svårigheter med ett dialogiskt klassrum. För att kunna besvara syfte och frågeställningar intervjuades sex lärare. Från intervjuerna tolkades empirin kvalitativt. I resultatet visade det sig att lärarna ansåg att dialog är väsenligt för att ett lärande ska kunna ske.

This thesis scrutinises the material on post World War II Swedish architecture produced by the Swedish Public diplomacy organisation "Svenska institutet" ("The Swedish Institute") during the period of 1945 through 1976. The outset is the dilemma encountered by every such organisation: how can the projected narrative of the own nation relate to as many countries as possible, without becoming too general? And how can the organisation address specific countries, without excluding others?By employing a two-sided model of interpreting the material, where it on the one hand is interpreted from the universal properties projected on the narrated architecture, and on the other hand from the particular ideological notions related to the same, the thesis suggests that the Swedish Institute continously relates the architecture to a West-European and American context by consistently connecting its universal properties to particular ideological notions orientated towards the West.The results underline the malleability in regard to ideological notions connected to modernist architecture. Earlier research in the Swedish context has focussed on how modernist architecture in Sweden, under the local tag "funktionalism", was established in regard to a Swedish audience as a particular Swedish architecture by relating it to a alleged continuos Swedish tradition, as well as to notions of a a progressive welfare state. By studying a similar material, though aimed towards a foreign audience, the thesis suggests that these allegations constitue an elucidatory example of how national and ideological narratives can form within the framework of technological-ideological dynamics of modernist architecture.

Syftet med vårt arbete är att finna likheter och skillnader, mellan en muntlig och en skriftlig dialog med fokus på användandet av naturvetenskapliga resonemang. Vi har observerat två grupper om fyra elever i varje, när de försöker lösa en naturvetenskaplig uppgift. I den ena gruppen har eleverna suttit framför varsin dator och fört en skriftlig dialog via ett nätbaserad diskussionsforum. I den andra gruppen har eleverna fört en ?vanlig? muntlig dialog, vilken videofilmats.

Purpose/Aim: The purpose of this paper is to describe how a number of strategically selected employees at the Swedish Institute, with the purpose to promote Sweden in the world, look at the challenges facing Sweden concerning nation branding in the new era of cooperation within the European Union. I examine how these people look upon the work of public diplomacy and nation branding in order to actively participate and influence the EU's common communications platform.Material/Method: The method used in this thesis is qualitative interviews. The reason why I chose this method is because I consider it to be the most appropriate in order to collect information about how these selected employees at the Swedish institute regard the challenges that lay ahead in terms of nation branding within the European Union.Main results: On the basis of the results I have gained by dint of the analysis, it can be concluded that it is of utmost importance to take the societal changes, which are a result both of the worldwide globalization and the EU cooperation, into consideration when designing a future communication strategy for the Swedish Institute. The nation-state continues to play an important role in Sweden, but its importance is declining as the EU cooperation is progressing. The citizens? identity plays a crucial role in designing a nation?s communications strategy, and from the analysis I conclude that we move not from a Swedish to a European identity, but towards a pluralistic union where multiple identities meet under one umbrella; the EU..

The concept of democracy is of importance to the Swedish educational system. The best proof of that is the central position democracy has had in the education program we attended at the Örebro university. This study analyses the concept of democracy and its leading foundation, namely the so-called ?deliberative dialog?. The last is belived to be an ideal of democracy which schools in Sweden should follow.

This theisis aims to expand the understanding of how the termination of Östran local editorial staff is effecting the municipality politics and organisation orientated substance of the rivale newspaper Barometern when it becomes a monopoly news paper. I examine if the hypothesis in consideration of the press investigation of 1972 will occur through a quantitative analysis of selected articles in Barometern and Östran in 2010 and 2014. I examine if the information will be insufficient, if it will be a monopoly of opinion formation, if the investigative journalism will be suffering and if the group communication will be worse.With this analysis it becomes clear that the news paper Barometern cover less of the municipality politics and organisation orientated substance when it is a competive news paper. My analysis shows us that the information will not be insufficient, it will not be a monopoly of opinion formation, the investigative journalism will not be suffering and the group communication will be worse when Östrans local editorial staff is terminated. .

How do the general elements for example the teacher, the lesson planning and the overall goal, that teachers obey to and create in their lesson?s planning appear at the two schools respectively?MethodThe study is based on four days of observations in one ninth grade class at a Freinet school and a corresponding amount of time in one eighth grade class and one ninth grade class at a Waldorf school.

Syftet med rapporten var att undersöka om dialogen kunde användas i klassrummet för att nå kunskap. Detta tycker jag är intressant därför att kunskap kan nås på olika sätt. Metoden har varit en kvalitativ undersökning. Den datainsamling som utförts har varit en kombination av olika metoder, teoristudier och intervjuer. Jag intervjuade två gymnasielärare och en högstadielärare respektive tre gymnasieelever vilka togs fram ur ett bekvämlighetsurval.

Syftet med studien har varit att beskriva erfarenheter av dialogen mellan distansstudenter och dialogens betydelse för förståelse och meningsskapande. Vårt empiriska material utgörs av semi?strukturerade intervjuer. Respondenterna består av studenter som vid något tillfälle har varit distansstudenter vid distansutbildningar hållna av Blekinge Tekniska Högskola. Vissa respondenters erfarenheter grundar sig även i distansstudier vid andra universitet och högskolor.

Det finns inga hinder att utforma en trygg naturmiljö vid förskolan om det sker en samverkan mellan förvaltning, skötsel och förskola. Barn utforskar sin omgivning genom lek. Inspirerande miljöer ger nya impulser till leken och naturmiljöer har de egenskaper som främjar fri äventyrlig fysisk aktivitet. Platser för lek ska vara utformade så att risker för olycksfall begränsas. Många av dagens förskolegårdar erbjuder inga utmaningar för barnen. Att komplettera utemiljön med naturelement är möjlig att göra utan att säkerheten äventyras. Dialog mellan förvaltning, skötsel och förskola är en förutsättning för en utveckling av utemiljön ska kunna ske. Det är viktigt att man har barnens behov i fokus och ser möjligheter istället för svårigheter.

This 15 point level essay intends to carry out an ideological critic of the scientific humanism; the main question the essay asks is: do the Humanists practice a rational dialog. In able to find an answer to this question have I developed an analyze scheme that show what the skilful demagogue should avoid, if he have an interest in practicing a rational dialog. The essay shows that, when it comes to debating their most important issues, the Humanist does not practice a rational dialog. The Humanists deny that other forms of humanism than the one they practice exists, according to their beliefs´ humanism must contain an atheistic attitude to the world. When it comes to the Humanists debates concerning religion they accentuate those parts of the bible that they believe is destructive for mankind, these arguments have no rele-vance and are therefore not rational..
