This study has examined how teachers in Swedish upper secondary schools work to foster a critical perspective through the education in the subject of Swedish. The study is based on qualitative interviews conducted with three teachers, who have given their views on the role of source criticism and critical analysis of literature in the subject of Swedish. Furthermore, they have described how they incorporate these views into their own teaching.The study has shown that the teachers find that source criticism and literary analysis are interconnected, since both depend on a general critical approach, which they both help foster. The main question the study examined was how Swedish education could help foster a critical perspective. The interviewed teachers' ways of working point out a way: teacher C has integrated source criticism and referencing into most of their education, which makes them central to the education in Swedish.

In this essay I analyze the performative aspects relating to Marina Abramovi?'s The Artist Is Present, which took place in spring 2010 at MoMA in New York, from the context of the artist and work, institution and documentation. In this performance work, for the duration of the exhibition, Abramovi? sits completely still opposite another chair where anyone from the audience may sit. The art arises through this participation.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the connection between store layout and how it affects us as shoppers. We formed our research questions based on literature. The study was based on observations of shoppers without their knowing they were observed. We didn?t tell shoppers since the science of shopping says that shoppers pattern of movement is something that?s subconscious and if the shoppers had known it would have affected the result of the study.

In a time of fierce global competition, where an immense amount of commercial messages reaches consumers around the clock and in every conceivable context, companies constantly seek to find new ways to reach out with their product. One way to do so, that has increased in popularity in recent years, is the use of gift bags. A gift bag may contain samples, miniature products and even products in full size, as a rule from several different brands, which the recipient receives free of charge. The gift bag is typically distributed at some form of event, such as store openings, fashion shows, theme parties and the like, and the receiver of the gift bag can then evaluate the content without any obligation to purchase. The ambition of the companies that choose to participate with their products in a gift bag is, of course, that the recipient will find their products satisfactory, and ideally, that he or she will continue to consume the brand in the future.There are numerous scientific research contributions related to the use of free samples, but very few that concern the gift bag, where a collection of samples from different sources and brands appear.

Med en mer globaliserad va?rld och mer homogena marknader har betydelsen fo?r marknadsanpassning pa? utla?ndsk marknad blivit alltmer ifra?gasatt.

Fo?r att genomfo?ra studien har en kvalitativ studie genomga?tt i from av en flerfallsstudie med de svenska modefo?retagen; Odd Molly, Bjo?rn Borg och Hunky Dory.

I denna undersökning avser jag att få en djupare förståelse för verksamma bildlärares upplägg, intentioner och upplevelser av att arbetar med portföljer och portföljmetodiskadelmoment i bildundervisningen. Anledningen till att jag vill undersöka detta är en följd av de åtskilliga rapporter och utvärderingar som visar på de problem och utmaningar som bildämnet står inför. Exempelvis har det framkommit att det generellt brister i främjandet av processfrämjande arbetsprocesser, utvecklandet av elevers förmåga till självvärdering, och den minskande undervisningstiden och bedömningsproblematiken. I och med den avsiktliga implementeringen av både produkt och processorienterade kriterier i bildämnets kursplan Lgr11, i kombination med det ökade kravet på lärare att föra dokumentation och en likvärdig och rättsäker bedömningspraxis, behöver man som bildlärare finna strategier och arbetssätt för att hantera alla dessa aspekter. På så sätt framgår portföljmetodik som ett arbetssätt och bedömningsform som har potentialen att bemöta dessa behov och problem, och därav intresset för hur verksamma bildlärare med hjälp av portföljer hanterar dessa utmaningar.

Allmänheten har blivit mer uppmärksammad vad gäller miljörelaterade frågor och ställer högre krav på företag att arbeta för en hållbar utveckling. Generellt sett har företagen utformade riktlinjer vad gäller arbetsmiljö och arbetsvillkor men sämre insyn i produktionens miljöpåverkan. Samtidigt som medvetenheten om miljöproblemen ökar, ökar konsumtionen av billiga kläder, så kallad ?fast fashion? konsumtion. Detta är inte förenligt med en hållbar utveckling då textilindustrin kräver stora mängder energi, råmaterial och kemikalieutsläpp.

Kundservice har blivit allt viktigare inom detaljhandel i och med den ökade försäljningen som sker på internet. Kundservice har nästan blivit en form av marknadsföring för fysiska butiker. Trotts den hårda konkurrensen mellan butiker på marknaden kan man som kund uppleva dålig service och kundbemötande. Det kan bero på fler faktorer, en av faktorerna skulle kunna vara att butikssäljare är snabba att kategorisera kunder efter deras attribut. Så hur stor påverka har egentligen våra kläder på människors bedömning om oss? Kan kundbemötandet i butik påverkas av de kläder som en kund bär? Detta är frågor som väckte intresset för ämnet i den här studien och som ligger till grund för studiens huvudfråga.

Antalet bloggar växer och läsarantalet för bloggar likaså, framför allt har en ökning märkts hos unga kvinnor (Findahl, 2011). Att bloggläsandet har ökat medför att läsaren sätter sig själv i en situation där de kan utsättas för påverkan, både i form av bloggtext samt reklam i form av annonser. Frågan är om det nya bloggfenomenet nu kommer att ta över som en ny marknadsföringskanal gentemot de traditionella annonsreklamerna. Kommer de personliga blogginläggen att påverka mer än traditionell reklam?Syftet med denna studie är därför att undersöka om unga kvinnor upplever att deras köpintentioner påverkas av bloggar.

The strategy when you change the visual part of the brand identity is often referred to as Corporate rebranding and is seen as a good way to show that a company has undergone a change. Despite high risks and high costs, this strategy has become more common and there are companies today who make the choice to change an already well-known graphic profile. This phenomenon is what underlies this essay?s problem statement: Why does a company with an already well-known graphic profile choose to change it and how does the process behind the change occur? In what way have the company?s customers recognized the change and how has the company?s image changed in this context?

The company that was chosen was the Swedish sports retail chain Stadium Sweden AB who decided to change its graphic profile even though their logo was one of the two most recognized in their field.

Contemporary society focuses heavily on the individual and this is also characterized by an individual thinking that many people contribute to. This is furthermore shared in the field of entrepreneur research studies where a profound deal of time has been focused on the personal qualities of specific entrepreneurs. However, in modern settings today many corporations originate in a team-based structure, which therefore leads towards a different approach rather than examining exclusively on individuality. Previous research shows that entrepreneurial teams are establishing and growing at a steady pace, yet studies within this field has not developed in an extensive fashion. Entrepreneurial teams can be defined as a group of people who share a common goal, usually consisting of two or more individuals who commenced a foundation from the early stages of that specific firm and who originated an initial idea.
