Denna studies syfte är att försöka förstå och diskutera den digitala mobbningen utifrån det mediasamhälle vi befinner oss i. Frågeställningarna som är grunden för studien är: Hur kan vi förstå digital mobbning? Hur kan denna förståelse leda vidare till metoder för att angripa problemet? Hur upplever pedagoger respektive elever den digitala mobbningen? Vad säger lagen om mobbning? Vad kan vara viktigt att tänka på i samband med Internet? Studien bygger på kvalitativa och kvantitativa undersökningar gjorda på två olika skolor. Den kvantitativa undersökningen bestod av enkäter som delades ut i tre klasser i år sex. Den kvalitativa undersökningen bygger på intervjuer med två pedagoger knutna till dessa klasser.

Who will win? Popular and literary framing in media coverage of Nobel Prize in Literature by Magnus Wennerberg Autumn 2013Instructor Mats Ekström The question at issue in this essay is how does mass media frame Nobel Prize in Literature? The starting point is to study whether game framing is occuring in media coverage of Nobel Prize in Literature. Previously, game framing has been studied in coverage of politcs, contrasted against issue framing. Game framing means that media frame politics as a game, a contest between politicians about power. This kind of framing is supposed to be used by media in purpose of attracting larger audience.

Det finns stora skillnaderna mellan västvärldens trädgårdstradition och den japanska trädgårdskonsten med sin starka koppling till religion, filosofi och den japanska kulturen. Det gör det komplicerat när vi vill hämta inspiration och applicera den japanska trädgårdskonsten i Sverige. Detta arbete behandlar när och hur den japanska trädgårdskonsten introducerades i Sverige. Arbetet visar också exempel på hur några olika trädgårdsarkiteketer förhållit sig till, inspirerats av och applicerat den japanska trädgårdskonsten vid gestaltning av trädgårdsrum i södra Sverige. Ett avsnitt i arbetet berör särskilt hur Ulla Molin inspirerats av den japanska trädgårds konsten. Hennes betydelse för spridandet av kunskap om den japanska trädgårdskonsten i Sverige betonas också. Litteraturstudier har kompletterats med platsstudier och intervjuer. Platsstudier har genomförts i 6 olika japanskinspirerade trädgårdar i södra Sverige.

Digital preservation is a relatively new subject to Swedish archives. Alhough computers have been used for a long time, preservation has been made on paper and stored on shelves. These days a lot of cities in Sweden have investigated how to best secure the digital information for the future through electronic archiving, e-archives. One option is to hand in the information as soon as possible, but to let the producer keep the information ownership yet some time. The idea is to let the producers of the information answer questions and hand out material, since they are more competent on their field.

This master thesis aims to examine how public libraries in Sweden are practically and ideologically equipped to deal with e-books, outside of the dominant distributor Elib. The study also aims to find out what?s required of the book market and the public libraries to make further progress in the question of e-books. In Sweden e-books are still representing only a small amount of all the library loans and an even smaller amount of the commercial book market.The methodological and theoretical ground for the thesis is Grounded Theory, and the survey is based on interviews with publishers, librarians and distributors.The conclusions of this thesis are that the public libraries lack resources to invest in e-books, and that they also lack in knowledge about the media and its readers. It also exposes that both internal and external collaboration efforts need to be further developed.

Learning Management Systems (LMSs) hold great potential to support learning activities, for example by providing teachers and students with new and extended spaces for interaction and collaboration. However, this potential appears to be difficult to realize, and despite their perceived learning benefits, the reality is that LMSs are being used primarily for administrative purposes. Meanwhile, external pedagogical tools are successfully put into practice to improve learning outcomes, and the aim of this study is therefore to identify and discuss benefits and disadvantages associated with the LMS as a concept. By interviewing secondary school teachers, we disentangle the idea of integrating administrative and pedagogical aids into a single platform, providing detailed insight into the use of digital tools in secondary education. The study contributes to a deepened understanding of integrated learning environments, and we conclude that there is a conflict between structure and flexibility that needs to be addressed before determining the design of a digital learning space..

Denna rapport är resultatet av ett examensarbete som utfördes under våren 2011.Centralt placerat i Uppsala ligger idag Österängens Idrottsplats som inrymmer en fotbollsplan samt möjlighet att utöva friidrott. Tanken med arbetet har varit att utreda behovet av en ny inomhusanläggning för idrott på denna plats samt hur denna skulle kunna gestaltas.Som en del av arbetet har det gjorts intervjuer med personer kunniga inom ämnet, granskning av området kring Österängen samt för arkitekturens skull gjordes en inspirationsresa till Köpenhamn.Arbetet är uppdelat i två huvuddelar, en utredningsdel och en gestaltningsdel. Utredningsdelen har resulterat i argument som stödjer idén om en inomhusanläggning på Österängens IP. I gestaltningsdelen har det arbetats fram ett program som legat till grund för de ritningar som redovisas i rapporten. Dessa är förslagsritningar i form av planer, sektioner och renderade bilder.Examensarbetet är gjort tillsammans med Werket Arkitekter i Uppsala där Anders Eriksson varit till stor hjälp..

The purpose of this study was to illustrate how children of the "digital generation" used their computers in their everyday practice. The important in the study was children's perspective on computers interactions and communications in a digital arena.An essential item about understanding children's way to think about computers was to let children themselves speak by taking part in the study, because children's voices are seldom heard in public. The empirical material used was interviews with sex children between 13 and 15 years old. My method was qualitative.The main results showed that social relations are very important for children. The Internet gives children access to an arena where they are able to make new contacts with others as well as transcend their biological as their physical identity.An important accepts for the children in the study was the option to be anonymous.

In this paper I have sought a suitable level of abstraction in my models describing the landscape; the models are made to be viewed from eyelevel. Because of the spectator being ?in the model? the objects included need a certain degree of realism. I have sought what is needed in the model to be able to comprehend that the model is showing a landscape. Some details might be unnecessary.

Det här är ett examensarbete i informationsdesign med inriktning mot rumslig gestaltning, där en studie av ett väntrum inom primärvården i Västmanlands län, Ängsgårdens Vårdcentral i Surahammar har gjorts.Syftet med detta examensarbete har varit att förtydliga vägledningen på Ängsgårdens vårdcentral så att det blir enklare för besökarna att hitta. Avsikten var att finna de nuvarande bristerna i vägledning i det befintliga väntrummet och utifrån empiri från omvärldsanalys, litteraturstudier, kvalitativa intervjuer och observationer skapa ett gestaltningsförslag som kan bidra till ett tryggare besök på vårdcentralen. Vilket i sin tur kan generera en högre helhetsupplevelse av besöket och underlätta både för besökare och personal.I mitt gestaltningsförslag har jag formgivit ett skyltsystem för att leda besökare mer förutsägbart än tidigare. Till konceptet hör en översiktskarta som hjälper besökarna, att på egen hand, ta reda på var läkaren har sitt rum. Vidare har ett förslag för receptionen utarbetats, så att den fungerar mer som ett landmärke än tidigare, och på det sättet blir en naturlig informationspunkt för besökare som är i behov av muntligt stöd i sin vägledning..
