Med en stor central hall på över fyra våningar skiljer sig byggnaden från det klassiska konstmuseet. Rummet ger med sina vita betongväggar och massiva skala inte bara plats åt konsten, utan förstärker den också. Det diffusa ljuset från takfönstret ger en sakral stämning och hallen kan hålla allt från en enskild tavla till enorma statyer, men också filmvisningar och teater. Samtidigt finns möjligheter till mer traditionella utställningar i de mindre omgivande hallarna. I övrigt finns möjlighet till föreläsningar och undervisning i anslutning till entrén och shoppen.     Byggnaden är också mer än bara en konsthall för Uppsala och årummet.

Den svenska bostadsmarknaden har under en längre tid varit ett hett diskussionsämne i media. Regelbundet beskrivs den svenska bostadsmarknaden som övervärderad. Ovissheten kring var marknaden befinner sig värderingsmässigt, väcker intresse att undersöka hur en bostadsrätts olika egenskaper påverkar dess värde, alltså vad individer är beredda att betala för i en bostadsrätt.?Hur mycket är konsumenten villig att betala för olika egenskaper hos en bostadsrätt, så som: boarea, våningsplan, hiss och antal rum??I studien utförs en empirisk tvärsnittsanalys, med observationer insamlade från och med första augusti till och med sista oktober 2014. Bostadsrätterna som är inkluderade i studien är geografiskt belägna i Stockholms innerstad (Kungsholmen, Norrmalm, Södermalm, Vasastan samt Östermalm).

Den 25 maj 2014 valde Sverige, likt resterande medlemsländer inom EU, parlamentariker till Europaparlamentet för perioden 2014-2019. Detta val tenderar att engagera långt färre väljare än nationella parlamentsval trots att det är ett av få reella verktyg en väljare har att påverka EU:s arbete och inriktning. Fenomenet kan exemplifieras med Sverige som i riksdagsvalet 2010 uppnådde ett valdeltagande på 84,63% av den röstberättigade befolkningen, men i valet till Europaparlamentet 2009 röstade endast 45.3%. Generellt i EU röstar 20 procentenheter färre i valet till Europaparlamentet. I och med valet 2004 föll det sammanlagda valdeltagandet till under 50 % för första gången.I boken ?What?s wrong with the European union & how to fix it? påvisar Simon Hix denna problematik och kallar Europaparlaments-valet ett ?second-order election?.

Ukraine shares a long history with Russia. In the early 21th century, Ukrainians wanted a freer Ukraine. Therefore the orange revolution started in 2004 by the Ukrainians and had a positive outcome. The situation later became worse because of the economic crisis in 2008 and a corrupt president. The pro-western politician Petro Poroshenko was elected to become president in 2014.

Total amount of words: 15 269.In this essay, the purpose is to examine the personalization of Swedish national coaches during international championships in the Swedish tabloids. Research shows that a leader nowadays is representative for her organization. Therefore it could be assumed that the way the national coach is portrayed can have some kind of effect on the public opinion about the team as a unit and their sport federation in total. This essay is a quantitative study of the sport tabloids Sportbladet och SPORT-Expressen during three international championships: Euro 2012 in football, WC 2013 in ice hockey and Euro 2014 in handball. We have studied the coverage of the national coaches Erik Hamrén, Pär Mårts and Ola Lindgren/Staffan Olsson in contrast to the coverage of their teams in total.The main results are that the national coaches are mentioned in every second article that is written about the national teams during the championships. They are mainly portrayed in a neutral way, even though the coverage of them is affected by the results in the matches.

Sammanfattning Ann Matti & Rawaa Najjar (2014) Lust att lära matematik Malmö högskola, ULV projekt Handledare: Anna Henningsson-Yousif Examinator: Haukur Viggosson Syftet med arbetet är att främja barns lärande och förståelse i matematik genom att skapa lustfyllda aktiviteter som har sin grund i lek i förskola och skola. Vi har använt oss av olika forskningsmetoder såsom aktionsforskning, observationer, loggböcker och samtal med pedagoger för att beskriva resultatet. Vi skrev också om teoretisk bakgrund och där representerades läroplanens kunskapsmål i matematik. Vi beskrev även tidigare forskningar kring matematikdidaktik och lekteorier. Resultatet omfattade observationer, planering av olika aktiviteter, genomförda aktiviteter, reflektion och dokumentering av barns lärandeprocess och utveckling. I skolan arbetade vi med subtraktion medan i förskolan handlade arbetet om hur man synliggör matematik i en barnbok.
