White- and blue collar workers traditionally belong to different unions and, therefore, are covered by different collective agreements. Collective agreements for different employee categories create internal divisions, which mean that white collar workers are not obliged to do work that falls under a blue collar agreement and reversed. Historically the difference between white- and blue collar work has been fairly sharp and so has the difference between collective agreements. Due to the continuous development of technology white- and blue collar work within production has become less clear. This has resulted in an increasing amount of disagreements regarding what collective agreement should apply and whether the employee is obliged to perform different work tasks.

It is important that children develop their communicating skills to be able to interact withother persons in different social contexts. Without the necessary skills, the child will struggleto understand others, as well as to be understood. My qualitative research takes place in a preschoolclass at a primary school in Stockholm, where I from a sociocultural perspective onteaching and learning aim to clarify how the students? ability to develop their linguisticperformance and their communicative competence is stimulated within this primary preschool?seducational framework. Empirical data was collected both through observations ofthe daily activities in the pre-school class as well as through interviews of three employedteachers.My research indicates that the educational framework in this pre-school class is structured tocomply with the official Swedish Curriculum, Lpo.

The purpose of our research is to study how guidance counseling initiated by the students themselves differs between girls and boys in high school. We want to study if there are any differences between girls and boys regarding guidance initiated by the students themselves. We conducted a quantitative survey consisting of a questionnaire survey with 125 respondents. The respondents are second year students at the Science program. The result of the survey shows that there are hardly any differences between girls and boys regarding guidance initiated by the students themselves.

In a multicultural society such as Sweden opposition between different ethnical groups can be hard to avoid. In the educational arena there is legislation and there are guidelines that aim to avert any kind of xenophobia directed at individuals or groups. As teachers occupy the end point of the educational chain the execution of these guidelines is for the most part left up to them.This paper aims to study how teachers handle situations where xenophobia is present and if so how they work preemptively against it. It also takes a closer look into the notion of professionalism within the teacher force with the aim of trying to answer whether teachers reach the requirements of professionalism. To do so we apply Gunnar Berg?s definition of the term 'professionalism' together with other scholars' thoughts on the subject.

The purpose of this essay is to closely study different studies and texts within the subjects ofanimals and nature in order to, from different themes, analyze and determine whether or not animalsis a useful tool to apply in school as well as preschool. Above all else, this study serves to answerwhat animals and nature can bring children, and when you as an educationalist can benefit from it inyour classes within school and preschool. This study also serves to point out what you should keepin mind when using animals as a tool in your classes, since there are a few obstacles to consider.The method used to analyze the different themes is discourse analysis, which is a sort of textanalysis.About one hundred years ago when our society was industrialized, different theories and theimportance of preserving and to sojourn into nature began to grow among some theorists, biologistsand educators. The value of spending time outdoors was realized, which we today have a greatunderstanding of. Our interest for the impact of animals on us is also starting to grow, and there is alot of research that is of the opinion that animals are good for children in many different ways, andfor many different reasons.

Syftet med detta arbete är att få en inblick i vad fritidspedagogens uppdrag i klassrummet är. Genom att studera yrkesroll och status vill vi få reda på hur några verksamma fritidspedagoger upplever detta uppdrag och sin yrkesroll. Vi vill även studera utbildningens form och innehåll ur ett historiskt och ett nutida perspektiv för att ta reda på om och hur yrkesrollen har förändrats. Genom litteratur och empiri i form av intervjuer har vi kommit fram till att avsaknaden av riktlinjer för vad fritidspedagogens roll i klassrummet är gör att fritidspedagogen, i samverkan med klassläraren, själv får tolka sin roll och göra den till sin egen. Utifrån intervjuer med informanter har vi också kommit fram till att vissa grundläggande kompetenser som de tycker ska ingå i en fritidspedagogsutbildning idag saknas..

Syftet med studien var att sammanställa vetenskaplig litteratur angående patienternas livskvalitet samt sjuksköterskans omvårdnadsåtgärder med avseende på orala komplikationer som är ett vanligt förekommande problem hos patienter inom palliativ vård. Våra frågeställningar var: Hur påverkar orala komplikationer livskvalitet hos patienter inom palliativ vård? Vilka omvårdnadsåtgärder kan sjuksköterskan utföra dels för att patienter ska bibehålla god oral status och dels för att patienternas resurser stärks och balansen mellan dagliga livets krav och inre respektive yttre resurser upprätthålls? Metod: En litteraturstudie baserad på elva vetenskapliga artiklar. Som teoretisk referensram valdes Carnevalis balansmodell, Dagligt liv - Funktionellt hälsotillstånd. Resultatet visar att fysiska besvär och psykosocialt lidande till följd av orala komplikationer påverkade patienternas livskvalitet i stor utsträckning.

Syftet med examensarbetet var att undersöka hur synen på och tilltron till ämnet bild ser ut och undersöka bildämnets status. Problemformuleringen utgörs av dessa frågor: Hur ser rektorers syn på och förståelse av ämnet bild ut? Hur ser inställningen ut till den ökade digitaliseringen i ämnet bild? Hur ser rektorerna på bildämnets status? Detta undersökte jag genom en halvstrukturerad intervjumetod med sex stycken rektorer, samtliga verksamma i en och samma kommun med samma ansvarsområde. För att skapa en förståelse för hur traditionen för bild har sett ut så tecknade jag en historisk bakgrundsbild. Det resultat jag fick fram var att det finns en positiv inställning till ämnet bild men att det förekommer en ålderdomlig syn på ämnet och dess syfte i skolan.

In this essay, I examine teachers' different approaches, responsibilities and child perspective on preschool. I discuss how important it is that we educators in preschool work together as a team about childcare and learning. Our attitudes affect the children.In the essay, I show examples of different attitude and approach to learning and the significance of the educational awareness that characterize the work of the nursery. We have different approaches and standards that are influenced by our cultural, social and ethnic backgrounds. It plays a major role in how we interpret and understand various situations in preschool.I also discuss preschool teacher's responsibility and teamwork, and how it affects children.

Ohälsa till följd av övervikt och fetma har kommit att bli ett stort folkhälsoproblem i Sverige och stora delar av världen. Hälsosamma levnadsvanor så som en god kosthållning och viss grad av fysisk aktivitet främjar hälsan och förebygger samtidigt övervikt och fetma. Individers livsstil påverkas av en rad bakomliggande faktorer så som tillgänglighet, närmiljö och sociala kontakter. Studier visar på en ojämlik hälsa, där barn och ungdomar som bor i områden med låg socioekonomisk status i högre utsträckning har ohälsosamma vanor och beteenden än barn från andra områden. I denna studie gjordes sex individuella intervjuer med ungdomar i åldrarna 15-16 år.

Subject: The Teacher Training Programme, Degree Project in Educational SciencesSödertörn University CollegeAutumn Term, 2006This study titled, Those who feel worst, need help to feel better, is a Degree Project in Educational Sciences for the Teacher Training Programme at Södertörn University College. The purpose of this study is to find out how school introduction for newly arrived refugee children is organized in two schools, considering the fact that many refugee children can suffer from PTSD, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. The study is qualitative, based on interviews with principals, teachers and students in one junior high school and one high school. The study also reviews literature and research on how to work with children who suffer from PTSD. The results show that lack of national policy for the school introduction and education of refugee children, leads to the fact that school introduction can vary from school to school.

Why is the e-revolution of the Swedish film distribution lingering? In attempting to answer that question, this qualitative study depicts the distribution market of Swedish film and its actors. Thirteen interviews with representatives of the industry have been conducted in search of an understanding of the current situation. Two important conclusions are made. One is that the strong interdependency between the actors of film distribution is inhibiting the acting space of those who seek change.
