Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka fritidspedagogers reflektioner om bemötandet av barn med koncentrationssvårigheter på fritidshemmet. Då fritidshemmen har förändrats, barn­grupperna har blivit större och personaltätheten minskat uppstår frågan om alla barns behov i fritidshemmet kan tillfredställas. Barn med koncentrationssvårigheter är en grupp som påver­kas av dessa omständigheter. Det är viktigt för fritidspedagogen att bemöta alla barn efter deras individuella behov.Genom en intervjustudie, där fyra fritidspedagoger deltog, undersöktes deras reflektioner om fritidspedagogernas bemötande av barn med koncentrationssvårigheter. Användandet av öppna frågor, i en så kallad ostrukturerad intervju, gav oss svar på studiens frågeställningar.Resultatet som är intervjupersonernas reflektioner kring studiens frågeställningar, visar bland annat att kunskap har visat sig vara viktig i arbetet med barn med koncentrations­svårigheter.

The purpose of my essay has been to illustrate any possible differences between pre-school teachers? and parents' views on the mission of the pre-school put in relation to the pre-school curriculum. In my study I have taken a starting point in the following questions:How do pre-school teachers understand the mission of the pre-school?Do pre-school teachers recognize the term baby-sitting from their profession?How do pre-school teachers perceive the parents' view on the mission of the pre-school?How concerned are the parents according to the pre-school teachers about the pedagogical activities of the pre-school?What do the pre-school teachers do to inform the parents about the pre-school curriculum and how aware do they think that the parents are of the curriculum?What are the plans of the pre-schools to fulfill the new part of the revised curriculum that comes into effect July 1 2011?I chose to utilize the qualitative method with the Hermeneutics as a theoretical framework in my study and through interviews study my questions. The interviews were made with four pre-school teachers from different pre-schools in the south of Stockholm.

The aim of this Masters thesis is to conduct an analysis of the Swedish classification system the SAB-system from a feminist and queer theoretical perspective. The theoretical framework of the study is feminist and queer theory as well as theories from Library and Information Science, mainly classification theory. The study takes its departure from the idea of classification systems as social constructs, reflecting their time, place and society. Paul Ricoeurs critical Hermeneutics is used as methodological guidance. This gives room for a critical perspective in the interpretation.

When we started this study we quickly saw that almost all the previous research that we find was focused and concentrated on the fact that the employees should be motivated. The research also presents a top-down perspective which means from the head to the employee. A Swedish newspaper wrote in an article that 1/3 of all Swedish heads can?t motivate their employers. A Swedish internet platform discusses this and says that heads need to be motivated to be able to motivate people around himself.

The purpose of this thesis is to describe and understand the existing factors behind the selection of foreign newspapers in Swedish public libraries. We wanted to study this subject because the political situation in many countries is reflected in the newspapers and can cause difficulties in the selection process. Examples of this can be how to avoid newspapers with political propaganda and with censored content. Another reason for our interest in this subject is based on our prejudice that newspapers from other countries are important for people with foreign background. To answer the question we have conducted qualitative interviews with five persons who are responsible for the purchase of foreign newspapers at four libraries.

The purpose of this essay is to develop knowledge about how learning among employees is perceived to occur practically in a pre-school unit seen as a learning organization. From an employee perspective the intention was to gain an understanding of how they perceive the organization regarding employee learning in the workplace when it comes to in which contexts and what conditions that enable collaborative learning. Because learning organization is mostly a vision from a management perspective thereby it should in this case mostly be viewed as the context in which the employees work in.The essay is based on a qualitative research approach with eight semi-structured interviews. It was based on Hermeneutics as method of analysis with the intention to gain an understanding of the employees' subjective perception. It is a case study on a selected pre-school unit in Stockholm.

Studiens syfte är att beskriva hur lärare i undervisningssammanhang arbetar med konstnärliga uttryck. Mitt mål med detta har varit att få ökad förståelse för hur läraren kan uppmuntra elever till att ta eget ansvar över sitt musicerande för att på så sätt se till att fler elever fortsätter spela även efter att de gått ur musikskolan. Jag har tagit del av vad två framstående flöjtister anser om ämnet, vad styrdokumenten (GY 11) lägger vikt vid samt vad av mig utvalda instrumentalpedagoger har kommit fram till angående ämnet. Jag har valt att använda mig av ett hermeneutiskt perspektiv i min studie eftersom jag vill göra en djupare analys och tolkning av den intervjuades livsvärld. Jag använde mig av så kallad halvstrukturerad intervju vilken liknar ett vardagssamtal, men har syftet att ta reda på någonting. I mitt fall ta reda på vad flöjtlärare anser att det innebär att spela med ett personligt uttryck och även vilka metoder de använder i undervisningssituationen för hjälpa sina elever att nå det personliga i musiken.

Although research on gothic fiction has given limited attention to children?s fiction, the last two decades have witnessed an increasing interest. To date the focus has been mainly on English literature with a recurring tendency to define children?s gothic fiction as a text corpus separate from gothic fiction in general. As a result, children?s gothic fiction has become isolated and is not considered as part of the gothic genre, neither the literature nor its adaptations.The aim of this study is to view children?s gothic fiction as an integral part of the gothic genre.

AbstractThis master thesis is a hermeneutic inspired case study of how the value base regarding the environmental and social responsibility in the Swedish coffee company Löfbergs Lila AB is affecting the company's business. A thesis inspired by Hermeneutics means that it is based on two ideas, the one of interaction between entirety and partitions and the one of interpretation (Alvesson & Sköldberg 1994). This cause that the emphasis is on how the reality is interpreted and that it never can be seen as completely objective.The case study was conducted during the spring semester of 2010 at Karlstad's University and consists of both empirical and theoretical material collected during this time. The empirical material in this thesis includes, among other things, interviews with four representatives of Löfbergs Lila AB, written material from the company regarding its work related to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), some information about the coffee industry as a whole and different certifications for "ethical? coffee that exists on the Swedish market.The basic idea with CSR as a business strategy is that it can be financially beneficial for companies to take a social and environmental responsibility outside of the company (Vogel 2005).

Den här studien syftar till att lyfta fram, belysa, tolka och öka förståelsen om hur människan i det senmoderna samhället lever med en medvetenhet om sin ändlighet och vilken mening livet får för dem. Som teoretisk och begreppslig referensram ligger den existentiella traditionen. Empirin utgörs av fem självbiografier som tolkas och analyseras utifrån en hermeneutisk metodansats. Självbiografierna är skrivna av personer som diagnosticerats med en obotlig sjukdom och inträtt i evigheten. Resultatet av studien utmynnade i tre faser.

Den här studien handlar om konstens möjligheter i mellanmänskliga möten utifrån en öppen verksamhet kallad "Skaparkväll", som bedrivs i en mellansvensk stad inom ramen för Svenska kyrkan. Studien syftar till att få en fördjupad förståelse av några deltagares personliga upplevelser av verksamheten med hjälp av kvalitativa intervjuer. Med inspiration från en hermeneutisk ansats tolkas intervjuerna samt blir belysta genom en teoretisk förståelseram. På så sätt fördjupas förståelsen både för personernas upplevelser samt för verksamheten i allmänhet. Den teoretiska förståelseramen hämtas från traditionen kring Uttryckande konst ? ­Expressive arts ? i huvudsak.

This study has as an objective to compare and evaluate the living conditions of two immigrant children residing in different places in Sweden. Given that immigrants often are looked upon as a social and physical vulnerable group in relation to disadvantageous socioeconomic conditions the children's lives were analyzed in relation to four public health objects. By using Runkeeper, GIS, Equipop data, time geographic material, telephone conversations and a web survey the children lives are analyzed within their activity spaces. The children formed their lives in different socioeconomic environments and adapted their lives after their conditions. The perspective on individual level can be put in contrast with studies based on society level.

En känsla för Gud ? Komparativ teologi enligt Keith Ward och perspektiv på religionsteologi.(A feeling for God ? Comparative Theology according to Keith Ward and perspectives on Theology of Religion)We all have preconceived opinions regarding people, cultures and especially religion and religiousness, and according to one´s own subjective formed opinion, they are surely truthful and moral. But my main concern with this essay must be thought of as a brief and personal mapping of Christian belief and it´s rational status in relation to both basic philosophy and the other great religious traditions. Furthermore, I am anxious to widen the perspectives of that which theoretically can be considered substantially real, and the existential consequences that follows on such a study. In doing so I must make sure that it´s properly anchored in history of both philosophy and religion, and of course ? with the general idea of God.
