Vi har i detta examensarbete undersökt rapporteringen om metoden ASL - att skriva sig till läsning i hopp om att dra vidare slutsatser om vilken funktion denna metod kan tänkas ha inom tidig läs- och skrivinlärning. För att kunna åstadkomma just det har vi ställt metodens användning i relation till det digitaliserade informationssamhället med dess ökade krav på läs- och skrivförmåga. Genom att använda oss av en kvalitativ innehållsanalys har vi studerat och analyserat uppfattningar som framförs i texter på internetplatsen Lärarnas Nyheter. Resultatet av denna analys har vi sedan tolkat utifrån relevant forskning samt sociokulturell teori. Vi har genom vår undersökning kunnat påvisa att metoden ASL fyller en funktion i den tidiga läs- och skrivinlärningen som ett integrerat stöd i undervisningen samt i egenskap av att vara ett digitalt verktyg..

The 17th October 2014 the Swedish Armed Forces (SwAF) introduced an intelligence operation in Stockholm archipelago after receiving credible observations regarding illegal underwater activities. Following the data collection and associated analysis it could be stated with certainty that a foreign submarine had violated the Swedish territorial waters. Media depend on SwAF to provide them with accurate information due to the confidentiality in these matters and the general area of investigation is therefore how the actions of the Swedish Armed Forces, in the submarine incident 2014, were portrayed in the Swedish media. Newspapers and blogs of defense policy represent the media and the thesis is based on the theories constructed by Graham Allison, the rational actor, organizational behavior and governmental politics. Furthermore, it is relevant to examine if there are any similarities or differences in how the submarine incident is illustrated, and what may be the reason for any possible occurrences.

The essay is a discourse analysis of the media's attitudes toward computing. The aim is to compare what the media is really saying about the usage of tablets, computers and compare it to what the research is saying. In addition, it examines what the media says about socialization. We analyze the newspapers Dagens Nyheter and Expressen and will first compare these two together and see what attitudes that emerge, and then seek similarities and differences with the previous research and theories including socialization learning, attitudes and consumption. Conclusions we can draw is that Expressen has a more negative attitude towards the use of computers while the Dagens Nyheter has a more positive attitude, but is also more objective to what they write about.

This essay is a meta study of essays published at theInstitution of Library and Information Sciences at theUniversity of Borås in 2009.

Introduction: As the media landscape has changed so has fierce competition in the market, giving an effect of stronger commercialization of the media. Societal problems in our society are caused by increased commercialization and market orientation. Media has gone from trusted social institutions to focus on their own economic interests, where owners are expected revenue. The content of the media is characterized more and more by entertainment, because it attracts a larger audience. On one side media is expected to contribute to democracy in society and on the other they are expected to contribute profits to their owners, which creates a conflict in today?s media society.

Syfte med denna studie har varit att studera relationen mellan motivation och portfolio, både digital och pappersbaserad. Samt att studera huruvida den ena metoden är mer motiverande för eleverna än den andra och hur relationen ser ut mellan portfolio och några av de sex utvalda motivationsteorierna som redogörs för i uppsatsen.Den metod som har använts i denna uppsats är forskningskonsumtion vilket innebär att resultatet är baserat på tidigare forskning inom de områden som berörs i denna uppsats, det vill säga motivation och portfolio. Utifrån dessa artiklar samt ytterligare litteratur har sedan en analys och diskussion gjorts för att undersöka relationen.Resultat som framkom i undersökningen visade att portfolio har en motiverande effekt för eleverna, framförallt den digitala portfolion, detta då den har flera tekniska fördelar jämfört med den pappersbaserade portfolion. Det framkom även att elevernas motivation i samband med portfolioarbetet visade en tydlig koppling till motivationsteorierna som tas upp i uppsatsen.Mina slutsatser av denna uppsats är att framförallt den digitala portfolion är en gynnsam metod att använda för att elevernas motivation ska öka. Dock bör teknologin i den digitala portfolion fortsätta utvecklas för att minska risken för tekniska problem.

The aim of this study is to examine if and to what extent the personnel at the local school perceive offensive treatment through the social media among the students and what the personnel thinks about the responsibility of the school to prevent this type of abuse. Offensive treatment through the social media has become a common occurrence among youth and affects health in both psychological and physical ways. As offensive treatment through the social media often takes place outside of school in the students spare time the responsibility of their health is unclear.

However, the legislation does not mention offensive treatment through the social media and the school has no distinct guidelines to prevent this form of offensive treatment.

De senaste åren har bankerna genomgått en hastig digital förändring och utvecklingen har inneburit stora omställningar, inte minst för bankernas privatkunder. Framväxten av flertalet nya elektroniska tjänster har inneburit stora förändringar inom finansbranschen. Privatkunder anammar dock denna nya teknik i olika takt, vilket har föranlett intresset att utföra denna studie där vi vill undersöka hur användande av självserviceteknik påverkas av olika aspekter av kundernas tekniknivå.Med detta som bakgrund genomfördes vår studie utifrån följande problemformulering: ?Hur kan svenska banker öka användandet av sina digitala banktjänster bland privatkunder?? Vi har använt oss av tidigare forskning och teorier om teknikberedskap, innovationsanammning, teknikacceptans samt tjänstemarknadsföring, och med hjälp av en kvantitativ studie undersökt hur dessa påverkar användandet av självserviceteknik, (SST) som är kärnan i denna studie.Då vi har undersökt privata bankkunder så har dessa varit grunden i vår kvantitativa undersökning där datainsamlingen skedde via en Webbenkät som besvarats av 185 respondenter. Utifrån enkätsvaren har vi gjort omfattande statistiska och deskriptiva analyser, samt grupperat olika respondenter efter olika faktorer såsom ålder, olika användarkombinationer, inställning till risk, förändring och inflytande, och liknande.
