Syftet med denna studie var att belysa de situationer i förskolan där barn tar eller ges tillfälle till reflektion kring känslor samt hur detta kan möjliggöra eller hindra utvecklingen av emotionell kompetens. Vi har tagit utgångspunkt i det sociokulturella perspektivet samt inspirerats av en etnografisk metodansats. För att uppnå syftet använde vi oss av videoobservation för att fånga olika situationer i vardagen. Vi filmade tre dagar i förskolan, två dagar lades fokus på samtal mellan barn och en dag mellan barn och pedagoger. Den insamlade empirin analyserades med stöd av en kvalitativ innehållsanalys och resultatet presenterades varvat med våra tolkningar av empirin.

Studiens syfte är att se ifall det är möjligt att under en kortare tid bli en bättre a-vistaläsare. För att underso?ka detta har jag under en åttaveckorsperiod övat a-vista 15 minuter per dag, med hjälp av en bok just för a-vistaläsning. Ett urval av dessa övningstillfällen har jag videofilmat. Jag har också använt mig av loggbok för att dokumentera mina upplevelser av min egen process.

The purpose of this study is to examine how educationalists work with bilingual children's language by looking at how and what approaches are used to encourage language development. I have chosen to compare two educational philosophies: Montessori and Outdoor Education, to see how big the differences / similarities are in working methods. The background to this study is that preschools uses various approaches and have different methods to stimulate the children. This means that the conditions for children's language development might look different depending on the preschool they go to. The information used has been gathered through interviews, where I have taken note of educationalists thoughts on their working methods, and through professional literature dealing with this topic.

AbstractThe purpose of the study was to examine if manual signs used as support to spoken and written language can be a god mnemonic for learning of word-pictures. I performed my study as an experiment in which I made a Memory game with word-pictures. I played the game with the children twice.

I observed the children and noted the words they learned to read with and without the support of manual signs.

Sammanfattning Mitt examensarbete strävar efter att ta reda på högläsningens betydelse för barns framtida läsinlärning och läslust. Genom litteratur och forskning inom ämnet belyser jag olika effekter som högläsning kan ge. Forskning inom området visar att föräldrar läser mindre för sina barn idag än tidigare, en trend som verkar hålla i sig För att se hur högläsningsvanorna ser ut i en helt vanlig klass, där eleverna är 6-8 år, innehåller arbetet en föräldraenkät där frågor angående högläsningsvanor återfinns för att sedan redovisas i resultatdelen. Även eleverna har deltagit i en enkätundersökning med syftet att ta reda på vad de tycker om högläsning samt om någon läser för dem hemma.   Arbetet innehåller även två intervjuer med lärare där deras tankar och arbetssätt redovisas, lärarnas åsikter och arbetssätt kopplas sedan till litteratur inom ämnet i en diskussion.        Resultatet av min undersökning visar att högläsning är så mycket mer än bara mysigt. Litteraturen och framför allt de intervjuade lärarna visar på många positiva effekter som högläsning kan ge.

The drama of Kristina Lugn?s Kvinnorna vid Svansjön (The women by the Swan Lake) takes place in the dialogue and language; the same ambiguous language that is found in Lugn?s poetry. In this essay I examine how meaning and dramatic tension is created in the dialogue of Kvinnorna vid Svansjön.I describe the play, using concepts from various drama theories. However, the most important concepts of classical drama theory such as "story" and "plot" are not really applicable. This is because of the contradictory information given in the dialogue.

The purpose of this Master?s thesis is to examine what role the new city library in Halmstad has for its users. The questions posed in this study are: What do the users actually do at the library? What roles are the most significant according to the users? Have the politicians succeeded in their intention of realizing a modern library according to the users? The theoretical starting point is Andersson?s and Skot-Hansen?s theory of four different roles of public libraries. In order to extend the model we added a fifth function; the one of aesthetical experience.

This paper is an attempt to re-read Walter Benjamin?s essay ?critique of violence? by separating what we here presume being its three-part core or axis, namely Right (rätt, as in Law), Justice (rättvisa) and Violence (våld), and then make an inquiry into the relationship between them, or, to what extent these three parts relate to each other. The method for doing so is at first a close-up reading of Benjamin?s text, where the core parts are being mentioned. Thereafter we will take a look at some of the most prominent attempts to read Benjamin to see to what extent their interpretation is compatible to ours.

The purpose of this Master?s thesis is to investigate issues concerning librarians? view on three genres, (a) popular literature for women, (b) popular literature for men and (c) erotic literature, when choosing what to buy for their libraries. A qualitative method has been used and the empery consists of seven qualitative interviews with altogether eight librarians involved in choosing and buying literature. The theoretical framework is built on theories regarding concepts of hegemony and cultural hegemony; the male sex as norm; taste culture and quality. The results show that three of the libraries in the study have a written purchase policy and that the policies that exist are very general.

The aim of the study has been to explore what participation and hope means for persons with disabilities living in an institution called Horizon House, in Stellenbosch South Africa. The aim has also been to discover the South African approach to disability and how Horizon House fits into this approach. Horizon House is an institution and a protective workplace in Stellenbosch for adults whose main impairment is of an intellectual nature but there are also physical and emotional disabilities. Another aim has been to explore the perspectives of the residents. The research questions of the study are: ? What does participation imply for the residents of Horizon House?? What does Hope represent for the residents of Horizon House?? What importance can hope have for people with disabilities, in their approach towards increased participation? We travelled to South Africa during a two week period in March 2009, where we participated at the protective workplace of Horizon House.

The aim of this thesis is to examine how five works of fiction about anorexia and bulimia have been received in Swedish daily press reviews. The investigation is based on 60 reviews, which are analysed with a qualitative method consisting of close-reading and where a feministic perspective is used. The main question concerns how and to which extent the basis of valuation in the reviews is effected by the fact that the books describe a primary female world of experiences. The investigation shows, among other things, that many reviewers consider the books about eating disorders to be too many. They categorize the books about anorexia and bulimia as a genre of its own and place the books into the literary system principally by referring to other books about anorexia and bulimia.
