The design process of an interaction design student is mostly collaborative and computer oriented. Based on this, it?s hard to believe that we have not yet found a tool that will facilitate our needs. With this in mind, which elements do we need to promote collaboration in a virtual design process? This thesis will include design processes, collaboration, creativity and virtual awareness, amongst others.

The curriculum of the Swedish school system explains how the transitions between the preschool class and the pre-school should be. The co-operation between the organisations should aim for a long term perspective with the students learning process in mind (Lgr11).The pre-school has almost the same aim in their curriculum, as the curriculum of the Swedish school system.The aim with my study is to examine how the teachers from the different organizations relate to knowledge and how they look at the students social interactions. Also how the transition between the pre-school and the pre-school class is viewed from their point of view. How do the teachers from the different organisations comprehend knowledge?How do the teachers from the different organisations comprehend the social abilities?How do the teachers from the different organisations work and interact in terms of the transition between the pre-school and the pre-school class?The study that has been made is about the transitions between the pre-school and the pre-school class. ItŽs been investigated by doing interviews with teachers from both the pre-school and the pre-school class.

In the tropics, logging and wild fire can result in degraded secondary forests with lower biodiversity than in the natural forest. One way to limit forest degradation is to rehabilitate the present large areas of secondary forests. However, there is a lack of knowledge concerning the ecology of tropical tree species and further studies would be advantageous for future rehabilitation efforts of degraded rainforest. The objective of this study was to investigate how mother trees in secondary forest and different site factors affect the abundance and spatial distribution of natural regeneration of non-pioneer tree species in a tropical rainforest in Sabah, Malaysia. The study took place in the INIKEA Forest Rehabilitation Project area, which suffered from wild fire in 1983 and has been selectively logged over both before and after the fire. Natural regeneration and site variables were inventoried in plots, while mother trees were inventoried in the whole survey area.

Child poverty in Sweden is a widespread phenomenon and occurs in diverse spheres in society; at home, in school and in leisure activities. Therefore more professions than just traditional social workers meet this phenomenon in varied areas which creates different comprehensions and abilities to handle the issue among various professions.This study aims to investigate the collaboration between different professions in relation to child poverty in a municipality in Sweden.

Försvarsmaktens definitioner av olika förmÄgor Àr inte tillrÀckligt preciserade. FörmÄgorna beskrivs i dagslÀget av Försvarsmakten pÄ ett otydligt sÀtt dÀr missförstÄnd kan uppstÄ. En analysmodell har tidigare utvecklats för att lösa detta problem. Analysmodellen Àr uppbyggd för att kringgÄ det problemet dÄ faktorerna som vÀvs in har en direkt anknytning till verkligheten och de scenarion förbanden kan stÀllas inför. Faktorerna miljö, motstÄndaren och effekt utkristalliseras utefter förmÄgan och scenarion bildas.

This study is based on a statistical analysis of fundamental key ratios on the Stockholm Stock Exchange during the period 2004-2012. In total 35 financial ratios of 90 companies were tested, ultimately five ratios remained within the 5% significance level. These ratios were ROA, P/B, Total Yield, EV/EBIT and Operating Margin. A custom made investment model was created based on the purpose to achieve a risk-adjusted excess return. The results in general did not show any significant difference in return between the model's portfolio and index.

Denna uppsats syfte Àr att studera finansanalytikers val av vÀrderingsmodeller, vÀrderingsfaktorer och informationskÀllor pÄ den svenska aktiemarknaden under hösten 1998. Det Àr av stort intresse att analysera finansanalytikers arbetssÀtt, vilka vÀrderingsfaktorer och informationskÀllor som Àr vÀsentliga vid aktievÀrdering, dÄ flertalet forskningsresultat sammantaget styrker det faktum att finansanalytikern har en aktiv roll att fylla pÄ aktiemarknaden. För att uppnÄ studiens syfte genomfördes en enkÀtstudie som bygger pÄ Olberts undersökning frÄn 1992 rörande samma ÀmnesomrÄde. Resultaten frÄn enkÀten visar att finansanalytikerna huvudsakligen utgÄr ifrÄn fundamental analys vid vÀrdering av aktier samt att de samlar in information ur Ärsredovisningen, delÄrsrapporter och frÄn diskussioner med företagsrepresentanter. De vÀrderingsfaktorer som finansanalytikerna frÀmst prioriterar Àr vinst/aktie, kassaflöde samt ledningskompetens..
