Dokumentation och bedömning är bland de mest aktuella frågorna i den svenska skolan idag men kan egentligen den muntliga färdigheten bedömas på samma sätt som de andra färdigheterna? Kan alla aspekter av muntlig kommunikation dokumenteras? Den formativa bedömningen och tonvikten på elevens lärandeprocess är ett krav i läraryrket. Syftet med min studie är att undersöka hur några lärare på gymnasieskolan dokumenterar och bedömer elevernas muntliga färdighet i moderna språk och hur dokumentationen praktiskt genomförs. Min undersökning genomförs med intervjumetod. Här beskrivs vilka svårigheter som möter lärarna när de dokumenterar och bedömer den muntliga färdigheten i moderna språk. Faktorer som tidsbrist, gruppstorlek, otydliga bedömningsmatriser och bristen på resurser är de främsta aspekterna som gör att den muntliga färdigheten dokumenteras och bedöms mindre än de andra färdigheterna. För att underlätta dokumentation och bedömning föreslås i min studie att man arbetar med kamratbedömning eller självbedömning där eleverna är mer involverade i sitt lärande och kan hjälpa lärarna i dokumentationen och vidare till bedömningen. Dessutom skulle det vara ett positivt stöd med en konkret didaktisk utbildning för lärarna i dokumentation och bedömning av den muntliga färdigheten..

Syftet med detta examensarbete har varit tudelat, med både kvalitativ och kvantitativ innehållsanalys. Den första har syftat till att undersöka vilken ställning historieämnet har haft i läro- och kursplaner, från år 1962 till 2012. Analys skulle också ske över vilken historia elever möter genom läromedel i historieundervisningen, vilket har skett utifrån Staffan Selanders definition av pedagogisk text-traduktion. Den kvantitativa innehållsanalysen har berört vilka och antalet begrepp eleverna möter i epokskildringen av häxprocesserna. Resultatet har visat att historieämnet som en del av styrdokumenten ständigt har haft en hög status, trots att det i den samhälleliga kontexten har gått att utläsa motsatt scenario.

The purpose of this study is to provide a longitudinal examination, within grocery retailing, of four marketing tools and their impact on enhancing customer loyalty. The study examines whether the relationship between the four marketing tools and customer satisfaction has a positive effect on attitude and behavior loyalty. The findings from this study show that the marketing tools have not helped enhancing loyalty between 2004 and 2007. Between these years, service quality has the most affect on loyalty. Self-scanning as an effective marketing tool could be questioned, the relation in this study is not supported.

The purpose of this essay is to examine how officials within the Swedish public libraryorganisation view the IT-development, how the IT-development progresses within theorganisation and if there is a need for a national IT-strategy for the public libraries in Sweden.Four unorganized interviews with officials within the regional- and county libraryorganisation and one within the national organisation where conducted. This study is aqualitative examination where the phenomenographic approach has been used as inspirationfor the analytic model. The analytic result has been compared to the system theory of how anoptimal system should be constructed to perform in an optimal way and to be able to producegood results. The results of this study show a wish for a better national cooperation regardingthe IT-development for the Swedish public libraries. Today?s library structure should bereviewed over in order to enable the libraries to produce even better results from the cooperation?s..

The purpose of this examination paper has been to examine the situation for Swedish as a Second Language Programs in relationship to their interaction with the parents of the stu-dents. This case study was performed at two schools in the county of Stockholm. A com-parative analysis of both national and local documents for school governance was used to analyse the contents for incidents of parental involvement in schooling. Furthermore, qualitative semi-structured interviews were carried out with five staff-members holding key positions. The findings of the study are that schools tend to practice parental involve-ment only to the level that it is recommended in the national documents.

The aim of this master thesis is to study the reliefs of a Romanesque tombstone from 1130 AD, with the intention to form a plausible understanding of their meaning. During the course of the investigation, my main focus will be on collecting materials of an iconographical and historiographical nature, as they appear in previous studies. I will also use performative analysis when examining the tombstone. Consequently this thesis can be seen as a survey of history and place; early Christian iconology as well as the experience of the viewer. As a result, the 900-year-old tombstone will not only be seen as a memorial in this text, but also as a performance of one man?s faith and as representing the core message of the early Christian church.The tombstone is a rarity in Swedish art history and well worth a closer examination.

Syftet med studien är att undersöka lärares inställning till omprov och hur det tillämpas. Det sätts i relation till Skolverkets riktlinjer. Syftet är också att se hur omprov påverkar bedömningsprocessen. Teoribakgrunden bygger på olika bedömningsaspekter samt faktorer som kan påverka omprovets funktion. Undersökningen baserar sig på kvalitativa intervjuer med fyra gymnasielärare i samhällskunskap.

AbstraktEn avgörande faktor för att kunna förebygga, avhjälpa eller lindra matematiksvårigheter är ifall pedagoger har kompetens att genomföra en kartläggning, som ger vägledning för fortsatta pedagogiska insatser (Lundberg & Sterner, 2009). Med detta som utgångspunkt var syftet med studien att undersöka yrkesverksamma specialpedagogers syn på kartläggning och yngre elevers räknesvårigheter samt hur de går till väga vid en pedagogisk kartläggning i matematik. Studien har en kvalitativ ansats med semistrukturerad intervju som metod. Deltagarna i undersökningen är två specialpedagoger med gedigen utbildning och erfarenhet inom området. Resultatet av undersökningen visar att informanterna har en formativ syn på kartläggning.

Our examination project has been to develop today?s existing walking frames and make them more exiting and user friendly for tomorrow?s users.The use of a walking frame today makes it easier for a person with a movement difficulty in different extent. It makes it easier with their living condition and the user get a more movement easier life where they can take care of the daily chores without any help from the society or the family members.With our product we get a product that not only makes it easier for the user to get out and get forward. We help the user to get forward where they often would have difficulties to get forward. An example is where its more steeper parts where it could be more difficult to get up or down and even with more difficult foundation due to bad weather.

Syftet med denna kvalitativa studie var att undersöka hur lärare arbetar med bedömning av elevers kunskaper i matematik. Metoden som använts är kvalitativa intervjuer. Sammantaget har tio lärare som undervisar i år sex från fyra olika kommuner i Mellansverige deltagit i studien. Resultatet visar att de sätt som i huvudsak används för att bedöma elevers kunskaper är skriftliga diagnoser, muntlig bedömning samt att lärare bedömer med hjälp av känsla som de skapar för elevernas kunskaper. Diagnoserna används främst efter avslutat avsnitt för att kontrollera att målen med undervisningen har nåtts.
