This final-year project has been performed at Strix production Efterlyst. The task has been to make a page under their homepage, with a game application that?s supposed to be interesting and also have a strong connection to the TV- program. In the first part of the report, the reader will learn about the preparing work that was done before the work with the final game began. It is in these two test versions all the technical problems were tested, to finally be used or thrown away.

The aim of our study is to explore the thoughts and beliefs held by the professionals who work with the sentence youth service for young offenders, and how they feel about the same.How is the sentence youth service perceived from a professional perspective? How does the concurrence look like between the police, the social services and the prosecutor, when it comes to young offenders? What kind of difficulties/challenges do the professionals see in the possibility to effect the sentence youth service?The study is based on a qualitative method. The data consists of seven semi-structured interviews with two police officers, four social workers and one prosecutor.The results of our study indicate that youth service is a good sentence for young first-time offenders; the study also indicates that concurrence between the different professions is a success factor; furthermore the study revealed that it was very difficult finding adequate working places..

The purpose of this study was to explore students' and teachers' experiences of the new pedagogical teaching tool, interactive whiteboard, which have gained increased popularity and wide spread usage in the classrooms. An observation during a mathematical lecture was conducted as a pilot study prior to the main research method of phenomenology; based on students? self-descriptions and interviews with two teachers, this methodological approach was used to investigate the subject matter. The interpretation, comparison and analysis of the results surrounding this new teaching method is explained by two theories, constructivism and socio-cultural perspective. The information shared by the students and teachers have been broken down into four categories: enjoyment & interest, practical, insight and no different.

The beta value is frequently described in theory and is a well known factor to quantify the systematic risk in shares through the CAPM model. Initially, this study describes the advantages and difficulties with the estimating process and the problematic nature of the assumptions and descisons included in published beta values.An alternative method, Bottom-up beta, to estimate the beta value that probably has not been tested under Swedish circumstances is applied. The problems and decisions that have to be made to derive an alternative value are studied in detail through six separate steps. I have chosen nine companies at the Stockholm Stock Exchange where this method is used. The result showed that the systematic risk were higher at five shares and lower at four, compared to the published values.Finally there is a discussion about the practise, usefulness and opinions concerning how to estimate and interpret the beta value to determine the expected return..

I denna komparativa studie av användbarhet undersöktes telefonerna Sony Ericsson T630, Simens S65 och Nokia 6230 för att kunna se vilka felassociationer deras respektive gränssnitt ger upphov till. Studien är gjord därför att jag fann de metoder för att studera gränssnitt i mobiltelefoner jag kommit i kontakt med fokuserade alltför mycket på effektivitetsaspekten av användbarhet. Metoderna var inriktade på vana användare och för studier av människor med relativt liten erfarenhet var de obrukbara. Under arbetet har en ny metod för studier av denna typ tagits fram med fokus på ändamålsenlighets-aspekten av ISO 9241-11. Jag har undersökt hur väl sju medelålders personer klarat av de olika gränssnitten och kartlagt deras tidigare mobiltelefonvanor.

Studien syftar till att studera ett laborativt arbetssätt i matematiken som metod. Arbetet består av en litteraturgenomgång och en empirisk del där intervjuer med åtta olika lärare ingår. Den teoretiska delen behandlar två områden. Dessa områden är ämnet matematik och vad ett laborativt arbetssätt är utifrån litteraturen. Den teoretiska studien beskriver hur ett laborativt arbetssätt i matematikundervisningen kan se ut.

With many different elective courses to choose between, a lot of students  experience anxiety over deciding which courses to study next semester. The  choice of a specific course can have a big impact on the students future studies  and/or employment. Therefore the anxiety is justified. At the same time the  number of students applying for a course often vary from year to year. This  creates issues for the responsible teachers because of the ever-changing  resource requirements.There are several different theories on decision making, addressing the  different time related states as well as the different habitual styles.

I denna uppsats har vi undersökt ett produktutvecklande IT-företag med rötter från konsultbranschen. Syftet med uppsatsen var att se hur ett produktutvecklande IT-företag skiljer sig från ett konsultföretag. Vi har även undersökt hur det produktutvecklande företagets rötter från konsultbranschen påverkar arbetet med produktutvecklingen. Vi undersökte detta genom att på ett IT-företag göra en kvalitativ studie som främst bestod av intervjuer. Med hjälp av teorier har vi undersökt företaget inom fyra olika områden: företagets systemutvecklingsarbete, skillnader mellan tjänster och produkter, organisationens utveckling och företagets interorganisatoriska nätverk.

?This is a study of two school extern homework activities dedicated to helping students with their homework. The questions at issue are 1) how are the homework activities organized when it comes to financing, planning, marketing and implementation? 2) Who participates as staff as well as students and what are the requirements for participants? 3) What are the reasons for students to attend school external homework sessions? Material was gathered by a survey among the students at the activities and by interviews with principals for each activity. Two main findings are that the homework activities are almost exclusively visited by students with immigrant background and that the main reasons for participating are difficulties with the Swedish language, and parents not being able to help their children with homework.

Ett införande av ett informationsystem i en organisation lederofta till förändringar både på ett organisatoriskt och individuelltplan. Exempelvis kan individer få andra arbetsuppgifter eller blirutan arbete till följd av informationssystemet.Informationssystem kan också användas inom säkerhetskritiskaområden som exemplevis inom sjukvården, flygplansindustrinoch inom det militära. Vem bär ansvaret vid felaktigheter isystemet då olyckan är framme? Vid en överblick över erkändasystemutvecklingsmetoder återfinns ingen vägledning hur deetiska aspekterna ska beaktas i samband med systemutveckling.Syftet med uppsatsen var att svara på frågan hur det tas hänsyntill de etiska dilemman som kan uppstå i samband medsystemutveckling. För att besvara frågan utfördes femkvalitativa semistrukturerade intervjuer med systemutvecklaremed olika arbetserfarenheter.

The purpose of this study is to illustrate how three schools work with special education needs, what they consider is special education needs and what measures they put in for the student to achieve the goals. I will also study how the evaluation and the follow-up of the individualized education program work at the schools.The empirical material consists of all active programs in grades 7, 8 and 9, together with and interviews with special education teachers and the principal at each school. The results are compared with similar previous researches and analysed by two dominant perspectives of school difficulties.The result shows that it is mainly the critical perspective that dominates the individualized education program. The student is the carrier of the problem and is excluded in many cases from the other students in the class. These measures are different compensatory accommodations for the student in order to catch up with other students..

Internetanvändandet i Sverige har ökat under flera år och det finns tendenser på att det fortsätter att öka. Det ökande användandet medför inte bara positiva aspekter utan även negativa aspekter som olika Internetrelaterade hot och risker som kan drabba användare. Syftet med denna uppsats var att ta reda på om Internetanvändningen och dess aktiviteter och tjänster fortsätter att öka. Ytterligare en anledning var att undersöka om kunskapen och medvetenheten om Internetrelaterade hot och risker har ökat hos Internetanvändare samt hur de skyddar sin dator mot de olika hoten och riskerna. För att styrka och få bättre relevans på uppsatsen innehåller teorikapitlet bland annat korta beskrivningar om de vanligaste begreppen inom Internetrelaterade hot, risker och säkerhetsskydd samt statistik om hur Internetanvändandet har sett ut de senaste åren.

The purpose of this essay is to investigate the presences of open-ended problems in the textbooks of high school Mathematics A. For practical reasons the study was limited to three textbooks and two topics, Fractions and Area & Volume. The Essay also describes the theory behind open-ended problems and why they should be used. I identify three criteria as a definition for open-ended problems. The study found that only 7,6% of the investigated tasks qualified, and met at least 1 criterion.

The purpose with this review is to investigate evidence-based practice (EBP), and which arguments are used to justify EBP. The year of 2006 Bergmark and Lundström published an article regarding the problems concerning EBP. They are discussing that several different definitions of EBP are existing, which they mean can lead to difficulties using the EBP-methods in real life. In this study six articles, from the years 2007-2011, have been analyzed using Mertons structure-functional theory and Lipskys theory of street-level bureaucracy. Different definitions of EBP are discussed in the articles and there seem to be a need to clarify the concept.
