I föreliggande undersökning är syftet att studera hur lärare i idrott och hälsa tillämpar det målrelaterade betygssystemet och diskutera hur denna praktik påverkats och påverkas av olika faktorer såsom läroplan, betygssystem och kunskapssyn. I studien riktas intresset både mot tillämpningen av betygsättningspraktiken under tiden för Lpo 94 med tillhörande kursplan för idrott och hälsa och hur den kan komma att påverkas under Lgr 11. I fokus för studien är betyg och bedömningsprinciper för betyget Godkänd på grundskolan, vilket motsvarar betygssteget E i nya Lgr 11.

AbstractDuring recent years the climate in recruiting new personnel has hardened as a result of high levels of employment and increasing competition in labour market. In order to resolve this problem, organisations have to adapt new strategies to attract and meet the demands of potential employees who have the required competence to meet job requirements.The aim of this study has been to examine a well functioning work place in order to elucidate explicit examples of what employees consider positive, and what can be ascertained as positive deviations. Narratives emanating from the unit manager and personnel illustrate their views on the positive influences found in their working place. Another ambition is to increase awareness and understanding about the factors that promote satisfaction in the workplace and positive deviation; and to utilise this knowledge.Traditional research on organisations has frequently focused on problems. The theoretical point of departure of this study is based on Positive Organizational Scholarship, abbreviated as POS.

Ett av målen i skolans läroplan är att eleverna utvecklar en kommunikativ och social kompetens.

The work is often very complex and involves manyvariables ranging from competence to personal whishes and economical constraints.Solving these problems takes a lot of time and energy which could be better spentcuring patients.The conclusion of this thesis is that there is reason to develop such a system to savetime and optimize resources. A description of the system is found in numerous lists ofroles, tasks and prototype sketches which combined shape the content andfunctionality.
