The aim of this study is to analyze how problems are represented within SOU 2008:27. Further more, the aim is to analyze how the new subject plan for history can bee seen as a product of this document. The method used, and the theoretical frame of the study, is based on Carol Lee Bacchi?s ?what´s the problem represented to be?? approach, which basic principle is that policies are filled with representations of problems and that these representations need to be examined. These problem representations are then themselves subject for scrutiny, the second step being an analysis of the texts presumptions and assumptions concerning view of man and perception of knowledge. The results show, among other things, that a problem representations can be found in the SOU; the school system is too vague and unclear.

The starting point for this master thesis was the product of the company "Humlegården", which allows its tenants in office buildings to follow their electricity consumption in real time, through their Smartphone's. The idea that resulted from that application is to investigate if it is possible to direct the tenants in office buildings to reduce their energy consumptions, but also to be satisfied with the indoor environment. This work addresses the factors which are the main energy consumers in office buildings. It addresses legal requirements and standards which are important to follow in order to achieve good thermal comfort in buildings. Some of them are physical climate factors like thermal environment, air quality and lightning.

The purpose of this study was to look for tendencies that social media can contribute to exposing users to a stronger perception of opinion polarization, and further to see if the daily presence of social networking sites can put normative pressure on the users. The study was made using a survey with participants from Umea? University during the time frame of november-december 2014. The theoretical framework behind the study was mainly drawn from The Spiral Of Silence by Elisabeth Noelle-Neumann and was further supplemented with more current research, studying the effects from The Spiral Of Silence in the modern and more fragmented media landscape that exists now then when her theory was written. Further theoretical tools for analysis of the results came from Michel Foucault and his discussions in Discipline and punish, specifically his views on how surveillance can be discontinous in practice, but still permanent in it?s effects.The results of this study indicates that social media users tend to isolate themselves from uncomfortable opinions, and do not follow or read opinions they do not already agree with.

I allt högre utsträckning väljer konsumenter att undvika TV-reklam som företag exponerar dem för, alternativet har således blivit att integrera produkter och varumärken i TV-serier för att göra den omöjligt för konsumenter att zappa bort. Denna uppsats syftar till att undersöka produktplacering i TV-serier och vilka faktorer i marknadskommunikationsprocessen, individers perception och kognition som företag bör ta i beaktning när de använder sig av produktplacering för att exponera sitt varumärke.Genom att be ett antal respondenter se ett avsnitt av en svensk TV-serie och sedan besvara frågor relaterade till produktplacering och avsnittets innehåll, urskiljs de faktorer som ligger till grund för erinran av varumärken.Resultatet visar på att bruset i marknadskommunikationsprocessen inte påverkar respondenterna i den grad teorin beskriver och den enda faktorn där samband uppvisades rörde individens sinnesstämning. Dessutom fann vi att respondenterna uppmärksammade varumärken i högre utsträckning om dessa var integrerade i handlingen, verbalt exponerades samt om det exponeras både verbalt och visuellt. Det visades även att respondenternas intressen var korrelerade med vilka varumärken som uppfattades samt att varumärken som exponerades vid upprepade tillfällen lättare kunde urskiljas. Företag bör därför ta dessa undermedvetna faktorer i beaktning när de använder sig av produktplacering som marknadsföringsmedel..
