A business is carried out for various reasons, but usually it is to gain market shares or to get advantages in the market, such as a trademark can help with. A contributory effect on the market can be customer loyalty to the trademark.

This report describes the work with creating a CMS (Content Manager System). A CMS is a web tool so you easy can publish materials on your web page. With a CM Scan you can without any knowledge of programming web pages create and maintain a web page. This will result in that you and your organisation save time and money. You can also split the responsibility for the webpage in different roles, but still keep the control.

AbstractMany pupils struggleto read. Teachers must therefore know how to motivate these pupils. In this qualitative study the aim is to investigate what some teachers do to motivate pupils to read.

The teachers said that the choice of book was extremely important for making pupils interested in reading, and that reading aloud and cooperation with parents and libraries are of great importance.

This paper deals with the question of neolithisation of Southern Scandinavia. The main goal is to give an overview of three theories regarding how agriculture and livestock breeding was introduced to the Southern Scandinavia. These are as follows: the immigration theory, the socio-economic theory and the historical explanation theory. Furthermore it is investigated which theory has the most probably support in material culture. There are obvious difficulties in interpreting the archaeological material.

Syftet med undersökningen är att ta reda på vilka matematiska förmågor enligt Krutetskiis teori som synliggörs hos elever i skolår 5 som arbetar gruppvis med problemlösning. Dessutom undersöktes vad läraren uppmärksammar som matematisk förmåga och hur läraren organiserar sin undervisning för att utveckla matematisk förmåga. Krutetskii (1976) har definierat de matematiska förmågorna genom en studie som gjordes 1955-1966. Dessa tolkades och analyserades från en översatt version av hans verk. Med inspelat material från två observationer synliggjordes flera matematiska förmågor hos eleverna.

Research reports as PISA and PIRLS show that reading comprehension among Swedish students have deteriorated in recent years and that girls have better reading comprehension than boys. The basis for this study is Maj-Gun Johansson's reading comprehension test done during the four years between the years 2005-2008 in the seventh grade in a municipality in Sweden. The main purpose of this study is to examine reading literacy in terms of the influence of content and form of texts viewed from a gender perspective. The study is divided into two parts. The first part is a survey on local reading comprehension compared with results from a similar national text.

Since a lot of the power in a professional bureaucracy lays within the operative profession with its strong corporate culture and strong co-workers the executive occupy a weak position. Their power comes from the complexity of the operative professionals work and the difficulties to supervise that work. To avoid conflicts it?s important to make all expectations on the executive equivalent. This can be done by defining the roles of the executives in a philosophy.

ABSTRAKT Cremona, Eva och Jägerdén, Calle (2009) Matte på lätt svenska är svårt - en studie om andraspråkselever och matematiska textuppgifter. Maths in simple Swedish is difficult, A study of second-language students and textual mathematical exercises. Skolutveckling och ledarskap, Specialpedagogisk påbyggnadsutbildning, Lärarutbildningen, Malmö högskola Syftet med studien var att undersöka vilken betydelse den språkliga formuleringen har för andraspråkselevers resultat i matematik. I examensarbetet redovisas hur dagens forskning ser på andraspråkselevers situation och vil-ka hinder som kan finnas för att dessa ska nå framgång i skolan. Hur skolornas organisation bidrar till studieresultaten samt betydelsen av modersmålsundervisning tas också upp. Studi-en genomfördes i fyra kommuner och eleverna som deltog gick på IVIK - Individuella pro-grammets introduktionskurser för invandrare. Efter en förstudie, där hemspråkslärare och elever intervjuades, genomfördes en kvantitativ enkätundersökning.

Dyskalkyli, eller specifik räknesvårighet, är en specifik inlärningsstörning som innebärstora svårigheter att handskas med siffror. Detta är en kvalitativ intervjustudie medföräldrar till ungdomar med dyskalkyli, där frågor kring skolgång, insatser och känslorkring diagnosen samt relationen mellan förälder och ungdom berörs. Åtta föräldrar, allamödrar till ungdomar med dyskalkyli som är mellan 12 och 19 år intervjuades.Analysen som gjordes är en så kallad tematisk analys. De åtta teman som studienresulterade i är: Från upptäckt till utredning, Hur påverkar diagnosen?, Livet utanförskolan, Skolans hantering av svårigheter och dyskalkyli, Föräldrars insatser, Relationentill skolan, Vilka insatser önskas? och Hur dyskalkylin påverkar idag och framtiden.Föräldrar upplevde skolgången som en jobbig tid för både dem och deras barn och imånga fall har kommunikationen mellan skola och hem brustit.

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the schools? pupils have the capacity to understand societal change through social consciousness.

 This report is about the principle and his / her role at the school it?s also about how the principle understands the role, its expectations and the demands connected. The facts are based on deep detailed interviews with three different principles. The theoretical approach is coming from ?hermeneutiken? and ?Gadamers? ideas regarding how an individual is creating the world and the surroundings to act within.

This thesis primarily includes a study on whether companies can develop a mathematical activity that supports students' motivation in mathematics. The work was done together with Midroc Electro, a company that pays attention to the difficulty of recruiting and therefore was interested in investigating how the business world would be able to contribute.The thesis can be divided into three stages. The first part comprised by a exploration into research on student motivation regarding mathematics as well as numerous interviews with engineers to see how the research findings did fit with Midroc Electros reality. In these studies it became clear that the student who aims for a profession whose education or work requires math belongs to the group of students who primarily manage their studies in mathematics, that is, those that have the greatest motivation to work hard and complete their studies.Research information and interviews were compared and resulted in the thesis second part, Midroc Challenge. An activity where students primarily came to learn about the engineering profession and secondly how mathematics can be used in the engineering profession.

Hälsans Trädgård is a project which is going to start in Gamla Linköping, Sweden. The authors were commissioned by Arbetslivsresurs, a company working with work rehabilitation, to select, define and make job analyses on five work tasks at Hälsans Trädgård in Gamla Linköping. A job analysis means an analysis of the demands the job make of the individual. The job analysis used in this study is called The Revised Handbook for Analyzing Jobs (RHAJ) and is from the US Department of Labor (DOL). As RHAJ is an American instrument, the authors produced a form where the concepts are translated into Swedish to make the analysis easier.

I denna text diskuterar jag produktionen av Hearty Horrors, ett spel programmerat och designat helt i flash. Jag diskuterar svårigheterna för de olika delarna i att skapa ett spel. Tankar och jämförelser mellan onda och goda karaktärer och vad man, som speldesigner, bör och inte bör göra för att få spelare att känna sig manade att spela vidare. In this text I discuss the production of Hearty Horrors, a game programmed and designed completly in flash. I discuss the difficulties of diffrent parts in the making of a game.
