Examensarbetet En skola för alla? Hur pedagoger arbetar med de ?snabba? eleverna i svenska är skrivet av Anna Andersson och Lotta Andersson. De elever som har varit snabba inom skolämnen har enligt tidigare forskning inte varit en prioriterad grupp inom den svenska skolan. Enligt tidigare forskning har dessa elever inte fått någon stimulerande undervisning på deras rätta nivå. Syftet med denna undersökning var att belysa hur pedagoger inom årskurs F-3 arbetar med de elever som är snabba inom svenskämnet och hur dessa elever blir stimulerade och motiverade under sin skolgång.

Sourcing IS/IT is however a complex activity in itself thus requiring competencies in many areas of expertise and lots of organizations has experienced the challenge of managing the necessary competencies to ensure successful Information Technology Outsourcing (ITO). A literature review in the field of outsourcing revealed the lack of a comprehensive competency management framework with the ability to guide competency resource planning in ITO projects. In order to highlight the problem area, an extensive and thorough literature review and an empirical case study which investigated the skills and assets in ITO projects at ten major Swedish organizations was conducted. The study found that it is possible for organizations through structured analysis of their intellectual capital, using the competency framework developed within the study, to plan sourcing processes and prepare the necessary changes to ensure the ITO projects can be implemented with the desired effect..

This paper investigates the possibilities to construct automatized portfolios based on optimizations strategies that could outperform comparable indexes. The study is based on time-series of Swedish stocks dating from 1986 to 2006. In the research four different portfolio optimization techniques were studied. These were: the Classical Markowitz Approach, Mean-Absolute-Deviation, Minimum-Regret and Conditional Value-at-Risk of which the three latter are based on generated scenarios. The behaviour of these models was studied for different choices of parameters such as backward time-horizon and targeted average return.

This essay has examined the effects that new issues had on the four Swedish football clubs that are organized as sport limited companies. The difference between a limited company and a sporting limited company is that the clubs always have majority ownership by the 51% rule. Previous research on sport limited companies and on new issues has been associated with the agent theory and the pecking order theory in order to explain the effects.The thesis is a qualitative study with an inductive approach, where the interviews have been selected as the method of collecting data. Through the years the clubs have performed new issues several times. The study says that the clubs perform a new issue for two reasons, either for investment purposes or because they have a poor economy and must collect liquid assets.

Purpose The purpose of our study was to investigate the changing nature of volatility during the last 80 years. Like in an American study, we tried to find some trends in the risk of stocks and bonds that would have an impact on the balance of a portfolio of stocks and bonds. At the same time we investigated the influence of inflation on the choice of portfolio. Methods We have used standard statistic tools and formulas to obtain our results. In most cases it was a matter of calculating average and standard deviation.

This thesis describes how large Swedish companies finance their debt and identifies some factors that affect their decisions. The study is based on 10 well-known companies of which 9 are listed on Nasdaq OMX Nordic. The results show that the companies display several similarities concerning their debt structure and the factors which their choices are based upon. All companies in this study primarily use corporate bonds for their long-term borrowing, commercial papers for the short-term borrowing, and bank-facilities as back-up. There is a tendency that smaller companies in larger extent use bank-loans for long-term borrowing due to larger emissions costs when using market financing.

The tax law categories that will be analysed in the thesis are research and development, inventories, intangible assets, stocks and ongoing projects. The purpose of this thesis is mainly to give examples of what such an income tax law classification can look like.While dealing with the problems of classifying the costs some situations of competition will occure.

The valuation of an asset is one of the most important thing with accounting, though one of the most difficult thing as well. However, in deciding useful service life for an intangible asset and property, plant and equipment, there are quite a margin for the companies, which creates a difference between companies and industries. When computing the value of the inventories there are a few possibilities available for the companies, which also can generate differencesbetween companies and industries. Although these differences can occur, there might be some similarities in the companies? estimates.

Den militära organisationen har såväl historiskt som i nutid haft ett beroendeförhållande till denkommersiella marknaden för försörjning av tjänster och materiel. På senare år har vi sett enpolitisk strävan mot ett utökat inslag av kommersiella lösningar inom den militära strukturen.Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka om en sådan förändring kan komma att påverkainsatsorganisationens förmåga att leverera avsedd operativ effekt. Undersökningen tar sin ansats ipersonalens förtroende för militära kontra privata koncept. Med stöd i traditionell militärteori,systemteori och professionsteori genomförs en enkätundersökning i avsikt att utvärdera om det gåratt finna ett samband mellan förbandets förmåga att avge avsedd effekt och personalens förtroendeför en stödorganisation som de i en utsatt situation står i beroendeställning till.Den övergripande slutsatsen är att detta samband mellan förtroende för stödorganisationen ochförbandets förmåga kan påvisas. Likaledes påvisar undersökningen ett högre förtroende för etttraditionellt militärt förhållningssätt inom logistikorganisationen i samband med en militär insatsän för kommersiella lösningar.

Försvarsmakten har i dokumenten Försvarsmaktens Utvecklingsplan 2010-2019 uttryckt att förmåga tillgemensamma operationer, inom ramen för behovsanpassade och tillfälligt sammansatta stridsgrupper,skall utvecklas inom de närmaste åren. Detta finns även uttryckt i Verksamhetsuppdraget för 2009 därgemensamma operationer särskilt skall uppmärksammas på övningar inom ramen för den territoriellaintegriteten. I Verksamhetsuppdraget finns detta med som en punkt i den operative chefensprioriteringslista, detta torde innebära att antalet övningar, där förmågan till gemensamma operationersärskilt övas, borde vara ett par stycken. Så är dock inte fallet. De övningar som genomförs inommarinen i kustnära områden samordnas inte med markstridskrafterna alls, däremot samordnas merövningar med flygstridskrafterna.
