New national curriculums are issued in order to change the present state of the educational system in a nation. In 2011 the old curriculum, the Läroplanen för de frivilliga skolformerna (LPF94) was replaced by the Läroplan, examensmål och gymnasiegemensamma ämnen för gymnasieskola 2011 (GY11). As future teachers we are interested in how a new curriculum affects the work of teachers concerning planning, teaching and examination from the teacher?s point of view.We conducted interviews with five teachers working at upper secondary schools (16-19 year olds) in Kalmar county. Our theoretical framework is based on curriculum theory and concepts of Leonard Bernstein: framing and classification.

Den här undersökningen fokuserar på kommuners etablering som varumärken. Man kan beskriva det som en kommersialisering hos kommunerna där de säljer sitt varumärke i princip på samma sätt som ett företag gör, vilket gör det problematiskt att vara opartisk, neutral och framför allt en demokratisk institution som verkar för det allmännas bästa i alla lägen. Här har gjorts en fallstudie av Kalmar kommun som uttalat arbetar för att vara ett varumärke. En av kommunens senare informationssatsningar består även av magasinet Jenny, som tagits fram för att lyfta och kommunicera Kalmars varumärke.Problemställningen består av tre huvudområden. Dessa berör innehållet i varumärket Kalmar kommun, huvudsakliga motiv för att etablera sin kommun som ett varumärke samt i ett tredje perspektiv skönja dess demokratiska påverkan.

This thesis investigates the former apple orchard ?pplehagen with a focus on its origin, history, and remaining fruit trees. Historical aerial photographs, historical maps, an interview with a former owner, together with a field investigation has served as the methods of this survey. The investigation shows that ?pplehagen probably was established between 1882 and the 1930?s as a rational orchard in the spirit of the time aiming to produce fruit both for household and for sale.

Uppsatsen syftar till att undersöka hur informationsskyltar bidrar till större förståelse av kulturarv genom att undersöka kontexten samt informationen som ges på skyltarna och hur det genom dessa aspekter skapar perspektiv på platsen. De kulturarv som analyseras är Eketorps fornborg, Kalmar Slott och Södra Ölands odlingslandskap.  Källmaterialet består av kulturarven, deras informationsskyltar och den kontext de verkar i samt hur de samverkar. Här tolkas både den text och de bilder som finns på skyltarna.  Skyltarna finns uppsatta vid kulturarven och verkar i dess kontext. Det är möjligt att tala om att kulturarvet behöver skyltarna, dels för att platsen ska förstås dels för den effekt en skylt åstadkommer. Vidare används skyltarna för att belysa det som är unikt för den specifika platsen, informationen som finns påvisar vad som är viktigt för besökaren att se.

Information technology is increasingly used in healthcare. New methods, such as apps and computer programs and Internet-based treatments are introduced to treat various medical diagnoses. Increased demand for help in mental illness means that it is necessary to develop alternative assessment and treatments to traditional treatments that may be offered by primary care and specialist psychiatry. Government and Local Authorities and Regions (SKL) have agreed to support, and treatment on the web is part of that development. The work is all about, and how Child and Adolescent Psychiatry ( Bup ) , use psychological e- services, and apps for the treatment of adolescents and the types of psychological e-treatments for adolescents are available in Sweden today.  Methods used are interviews and literature studies, where I examined the use of computerized psychological treatments in Västernorrland and Stockholm County Council.

The purpose of this master thesis is to examine how librarians/cultural workers act in projects in order to stimulate and promote reading among children and youth in sparsely populated regions in the county of Jämtland during a period of three years, and if/how these projects differ. The examination is based upon the progress of these projects in four of eight communities. Four librarians and two cultural workers have been interviewed in order to get their view of the proceedings of the projects. The results indicate that the four communities all made up plans for three years but in different ways. They mainly collaborated with the school but also with the board of children's health and the preparatory school.

In the beginning of 2009 The County Administrative Boards assumed the responsibility of animal welfare, a task previously performed by the individual municipalities. This transfer was made with the aim of achieving more efficient and equivalent animal welfare controls across the country. Previous studies among animal owners have shown a somewhat negative image of animal welfare controls. This study focuses on investigating the experiences of the horse keepers in the County of Halland concerning animal welfare. The study is based on a questionnaire which was sent to 423 horse keepers in Halland, of which 130 were returned with information that laid the foundation of this study.

INGEN LAG ? STRAFF? ABSTRACTThe thesis deals with a gap in the Swedish legislation concerning the criminal responsibility under which military personnel act in international peace operations. According to international treaties called Status of Forces Agreements, military personnel operating abroad within the territory of other states are exempted from the criminal law of the host states. In return, their home states apply its national criminal law upon the personnel instead. Thus, Swedish criminal law is applied in relation to actions taken by Swedish military forces in international operations.

This report is a result of a first survey of Halland?s gravel pits as an assignment from the County Administrative Board of Halland. The focus has been on Apalus bimaculatus, since the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency are creating a restoration program as it is red listed as Near Threatened. The purpose was also to get an overview of the pits since the County Administrative Board wants to continue this project. Apalus bimaculatus is easy to overlook since it is a short-lived beetle and it lives early in the spring.
