The Swedish emigrants, in 1901-1904, were displeased with their home country, so they moved to America with hope to find a better life. Even though they were displeased they still had a great love for their home country and tried to either create a ?new Sweden? (the Swedish-Americans), or they traveled back to their families, hopefully with savings big enough to buy their own home. Sweden did not have a homestead act like the Americans did, which probably is the biggest reason to the emigration. There was also the question of each individual?s right to vote.

In May 2008, the Swedish Government proclaimed several proposals in order to increase the status of the teaching profession. One of the proposals was that each teacher should be obligated to obtain a "teaching license" to be allowed to teach. The license/certification will guarantee that the teacher has the sufficient knowledge of pedagogy and subject obtained from University. The existing teachers who do not hold a proper certification today will be given a certain time period to attain one. The teachers that are certificated teachers but that are giving lessons in subjects not certificated in will be given a chance to obtain the proper knowledge of the subject.

The Music Subject and its Status in School.

This paper is named ?The status of the programme is low? ? Gymnasium teacher?s thoughts and attitudes towards students in the vocational- and the educational programmes. The purpose is, as the title reveals, to examine the attitude of four teachers in the Swedish gymnasium towards the vocational and the educational programmes and the students that attend either one of them. This purpose is accompanied by research which says that the educational programmes? status is higher than one of the vocational programmes.

This study investigates certified and non-certified teachers in Sweden and how they themselves view the status of their profession. Teacher certifications were introduced to Sweden in 2011, under the assumption that it would raise the status of qualified teachers. Recent results from international studies showed that Swedish students have fallen in rank compared to other countries around the world, and one of the proposed solutions proposed to this was to raise the status of teachers, as well as their pay. A higher status would then solve other issues, such as the low number of applications to university courses related to teaching. This study asked high school teachers, through an online questionnaire, what their views were on the status change the reform was supposed to create.

Uppsatsen är en kvalitativ studie där status på Idrott och Hälsa läraren ligger i fokus. Den utgår från sex stycken utbildade lärares syn på både sin egen status men även sin syn på Idrott och Hälsa läraren i ettstörre perspektiv. För att svara på detta är uppsatsen uppdelad i olika områden där den dels lyfter upp vad status innebär i mer allmän forskning samt en del där fokus är på ämnet samt läraren i Idrott och  Hälsa och dennes status. Dessa två delar, den allmänna samt den mer idrottsinriktade forskningen ställs sedan mot de åsikter och synpunkter som de sex intervjuade lärarna har uttryck i intervjuerna. Det huvudsakliga syftet har varit att utifrån forskning och de sex semi-trukturerade intervjuerna försöka få en bild av hur Idrott och Hälsa lärarens status är i dagens skola och även varför lärarna i fråga tror att den ser ut på det viset.

A change has occurred in terms of recruitment to teacher education. From having been an educationof high status and reputation, a reduced application rate has led to lower admission requirementsand thus that students with much lower educational qualifications entering, which in turn means thatthe education status and reputation have been reduced significantly. Mathematics, on the other hand,has always been a topic of high status and reputation. Although there are few students who chooseto study to be a mathematics teacher. By conducting a survey of students on teacher educationtoday, both with mathematics and other approaches, I wanted to get answers to my questions aboutwhat influences students' choice of education: who are the students studying to be teachers inmathematics? Do they distinguish themselves from the student teachers who studies to be teachersin other subject specializations? Pierre Bourdieu's sociological ideas about cultural capitaltransmitted from parent to child constitute the theoretical framework of the study.Early in the study, I noticed that there is a difference between students studying to be a teacher inpreschool, primary or middle school and them studying to be a teacher in secondary and highschool, especially in terms of the mathematics student teachers.

In this study, five qualitative interviews were conducted, four of those with pupils and one with a teacher, in grade 9. Humans - a gregarious creature written in the context of status and hierarchy, aims to study how these students in grade 9 are grouped and how you look at each other in and between these groups and also in terms of status between and within the group. Using the concepts of identity, adaption, exclusion and the meaning of emotions with the chosen theoretical concepts by Goffman and, Elias and Scotson the purpose of this study has been answered. The results showed that the students were quite flexible between the groups in their class; most of them were part of a small group that consisted of their ?close? friends.

The purpose with this study was to find out about the preschool toddler?s peer-cultures. I also wanted to understand how these peer-cultures were shown.My questions are as following:What is it that the children interpretive and reproduce in their play?How do children gain access to play?How do children exclude each other?What position of status can be seen in children´s play?I used observations as the method to find the answer to these questions. These observations where implemented during five occasions at two different preschools.

Status är ett brett begrepp som kan definieras på många olika sätt. Status ställs ofta i samband med yrke och många människor har en uppfattning om vilken status olika yrkesgrupper har. Det finns motsägelsefulla resultat från tidigare studier om hur sjukgymnaster upplever yrkets status. En studie visar på att yrkets status är hög medan Legitimerade Sjukgymnasters Riksförbund menar att den behöver förbättras. Syftet med studien var att beskriva hur yrkesverksamma sjukgymnaster i Australien och Sverige upplever sjukgymnastyrkets status samt vad som kan förändras för att påverka yrkets status.

Striga hermonthica, a parasitic weed, has long been believed to be correlated with the declining soil fertility status. However scientists have recently come to question this statement since some recent studies have shown contradictive results. To investigate whether soil fertility status and infestation of Striga hermonthica were correlated and the impact of it were caused by farmer management, 120 farmers in Western Kenya, where Striga hermonthica infestation is prone, participated in this study. In three districts with two sub-locations each, farmers answered a structural questionnaire and identified two fields, one with high and one with low soil fertility. These fields later came to be the basis for this study and soil were therefore also sampled from them.

Mitt syfte med detta arbete är att studera hur barn själva ser på fördelningen av roller och status i en grupp. Jag har samtalat med barn om vilka faktorer som har betydelse för att få en hög position i en grupp, samt hur de ser på sin egen roll och status och om barnen har en medvetenhet om roll- och statusfördelning. Jag har försökt att göra en sammanställning av barnens svar och jämföra dessa med litteratur som belyser ämnet. I litteraturen har jag försökt att även ta med aspekter som på skilda sätt belyser konsekvenserna av status och roller. Sammanfattningsvis kan sägas att min undersökning visar att barn som exempelvis är aktiva och bra på sport tilldelas en hög position i kamratgruppen.

Denna litteraturstudie har som syfte att undersöka hur elevers sociala status i skolan påverkar elevernas psykiska hälsa utifrån ett sociokulturellt perspektivt. Litteraturstudien utgår från tidigare utförd empiri som har återfunnits genom sökningar i olika databaser. Genom att använda svenska och engelska sökord har studien funnit relevant nationell och internationell forskning kring elevers sociala status och psykiska hälsa. Studiens resultat påvisar klara samband mellan social status och psykisk hälsa. Resultatet visar även att elever som tillskrivs en låg status i skolan i många fall utvecklar psykisk ohälsa under skoltiden eller senare i livet.
