The purpose of this study is to find out what the educators idea of educational documentations in ratio to childrens inclusion and impact in pre-school are, together with the child's own perception of the concepts of documentation. We proceeded from the following issues: What are the significance of educational work according to the teachers? What is the teachers idea of a childs impact and inclusion in educational documentation? In what way do the children have influence over, and inclusion in educational documentation? What are the childrens feelings of the documentations? In order to find answers to our questions, we used qualitative examinations consisting of seven educators and seven children from various pre-schools in Stockholm, and thereby, we have analyzed our results. As our theoretical frame, we used ourselves of Vygotskijs and Säljö's sociocultural perspective that is about "progress and learning", which is achieved by interaction and cooperation in a social context. The result shows that the aim of educational documentation is to reveal the childs development and learning, and also to involve the parents by putting up documents on the wall.

Skapandet av konst kan ses som en social process där flera personer, utöver konstnären, på olika sätt påverkar processen och konsten. Media, journalister och konstkritiker är exempel på personer som ingår i den sociala process i vilken konst skapas, och påverkar i sin tur allmänhetens uppfattning om konsten såväl som konstnären som yrkesperson. Den här uppsatsen är en kvalitativ fallstudie vars syfte var att utifrån kritisk diskursanalys undersöka hur konstnärsrollen porträtteras i media. Fallet som undersöks är den debatt som uppstod i media kring Anna Odells examensarbete för Konstfack år 2009. Uppsatsen undersöker hur Anna Odell framställdes som konstnär i ett antal artiklar publicerade i Dagens Nyheter och Svenska Dagbladet, vilka aspekter debatten fokuserade på, vilka som tog ställning i debatten samt hur konstnären som yrkesperson framställdes.

In the fall 2011 a new grading scale will be implemented in the Swedish school. A government bill suggests a change of the scale from a three- to a six-point scale. The students will also be graded from the sixth class instead of today?s eighth. From the first year of the compulsory school the pupil will get a written judgment.

This Masters thesis examines the position of films in Swedish public libraries. We have, by way of comparing various statistical data, determined that the status of film in public libraries is week. We have completed earlier research by mapping what genealogical, discursive patterns that could be outlined in the Swedish government reports from 1949 until today, focussing on the activity goals and media policy of the public library. We have, on the basis of Foucaults theories on genealogy and archaeology, where text documents are considered to be meta-descriptions giving each other authority, analyzed if there any discursive excluding or contextual formulations exist in the usage of the language concerning the goals and the media attitude of public libraries. We have mapped contextual discursive formulations that to the commissioners have become neutral starting points for their assumptions and conclusions.

Drawing from the theoretical foundations of the ?critical theory? of the Frankfurt School and the media ethnographic ?cultural studies? approach of the british Birmingham School, this study attempts to sketch out a media theoretical overview of the contemporary state of media culture. Using the term convergence culture as the foundation, this study offers a theoretical background to the two contemporary streams that are the significant and distinct tendencies of convergence culture: intermedial convergence, its contemporary state and historical tendencies that can be traced back using the past media theoretical approach of the Frankfurt School, and cultural convergence, its contemporary state and historical tendencies, which lineage in a media theoretical context can be traced back to the british ethographic ?cultural studies? field. Using contemporary drama serials to identify and pinpoint these two stream, this study shows how intermedial convergence expresses itself today through media conglomeration in terms of branding, product placement and marketing as the result of the ?completed? convergence between screen culture and popular music as the current defining state of commodity culture.

Several theoretic and environmental psychological models establish a connection between the environment and the reactions of humans and the research support that there is a mutual influence between individual, environmental and behavioral factors. You often assume that a person both can influence and be influenced by the surrounding environment. This is evident, but it is less obvious how a given physical design influence people?s immediate behavior in the city. The aim of this study was to investigate if the physical design of a place influences people in an urban environment and to investigate how the behavior is influenced.

I have in my thesis performed a survey that builds on interviews of five former students at Mediepedagogiskt Center (Mpc) that is located at Sundsta-Älvkullegymnasiet in Karlstad which is incorporated into Karlstads-Hammarö comprehensive upper secondary school. The sample group of students all has various withdrawal years between 1997 - 2004. The aim of the survey is to evaluate any direct qualities that these students have had that helped them to get a occupation within the media industry after the completion of their education at Mpc. This survey also tries to evaluate whether the orientation of their particular style of education is a factor for achieving employment. Before 1998 the course was divided into three A and B-level courses within the directions, photography, graphic design, text communication, sound production and film/television. After 1998 these are now divided into one A, B and C level courses, and one another level courses on A and B-level. The result shows that something more than? just? a good schooling with high grades is needed to succeed into getting a occupation within the media sector.

TitelGod, don't you ever feel like everything we do and everything we've been taught is just toservice the future?1FörfattareTor KindahlKursMK1500: Examensarbete i Medie- och kommunikationsvetenskapTerminVT2011SyfteAtt undersöka vilken typ av mediekunskaper eleven kan utveckla i den svenskagymnasieskolan (Gy2011) och hur detta ska förstås i relation till forskning inom MediaLiteracy samt utbildningsfilosofier och politiska ideologier.Metod och materialECA (Ethnographic content analysis) och styrdokument för gymnasieskolan.HuvudresultatMediekunskaperna handlar mer om att orientera eleven i olika mediekunskapsområden samtgrundläggande färdighetsträning som både gäller hur man använder media och hur medier kananvändas för att sprida budskap - i synnerhet till olika målgrupper. De handlar mindre om attbelysa intressekonflikter, normer och värderingar i samhället. Mediekunskaperna igymnasieskolan är följaktligen en snäv gestaltning av vad som förespråkas inom MediaLiteracy-forskningen. Man kan av samma orsak även konstatera att kunskaperna i hög grad ärinordnat under vad Englund kallar den vetenskapligt rationella utbildningskonceptionen..

Vi vill med denna rapport belysa vilka faktorer som avgör om en händelse får stor genomslagskraft i media och i samhällsdebatten. Grunden är det mord som drabbade en trebarnsmamma i Piteå och som fick männen i Piteå att organisera sig i en gemensam protest mot kvinnovåldet i samhället. Vi har sedan jämfört detta med andra kända händelser som också har fått stort utrymme i media och samhällsdebatten för att se om det går att utkristallisera några gemensamma nämnare med Piteåuppropet. För att få en annan aspekt på frågan så har vi även gjort litteraturstudier för att hitta teorier som kan förklara varför Piteåuppropet blev så stort och spriddes över hela landet..

Skolan är ett ämnesområde som har debatterats under en längre period i samhället, inte minst har detta kunnat betraktas ske i media. Det har skett en livlig diskussion kring gymnasieskolan och dess teoretiska program och yrkesprogram, där exempelvis programmens utformning och uppdrag har debatterats. Någonting som även har berörts i diskussionerna kring gymnasieskolan och dess program är dess relation till arbetsmarknaden och till högre utbildningsformer, så som universitet och högskola. Inte minst har detta skett den nya gymnasieförordningen, SFS 2010:2039, trädde i kraft under 2011. Detta arbete stävar efter att synliggöra hur media i form av tre tidningar, Skolvärlden, Svenska Dagbladet och Dagens Nyheter, under perioden från 2011-01-01 till 2012-12-31 har valt att presentera debatten kring de teoretiska och de praktiska yrkesprogrammen i gymnasieskolan i sina artiklar. .

Titel: Musikartister ? ett underhållande innehåll. En studie om hur kvinnor vill ta del avmusikartister i mediaFörfattare: Ann-Sofie Pettersson och Maja RönnbäckUppdragsgivare: Evelyn JonsKurs: Medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap, examensarbete, Institutionen för journalistik,medier och kommunikation (JMG), Göteborgs universitetTermin: Höstterminen 2011Handledare: Marie GrusellAntal ord: 17 480Syfte: Att undersöka hur kvinnor vill ta del av musikartister i media.Metod: En kvalitativ studie med respondentintervjuerMaterial: Analys av intervjuer med åtta kvinnor inom den valda målgruppen, kvinnor mellan30 och 49 år.Huvudresultat: Resultatet visar mönster som tyder på att målgruppens intresse ochengagemang för att ta del av musikartister i media är förhållandevis lågt. Musik ochmusikartister i media förknippas främst med underhållning, men musikartister fyller ävenbehov av information samt att styrka den personliga identiteten och sociala relationer. I tv och radio står innehåll om musikartister främst för underhållning, medan det i tidningar ochinternet främst står för information.

The purpose of my study was to see what kind of relationships there were between the youth and the social workers in the treatment home Hassela in Klintehamn, Gotland. The social workers work for six weeks day and night by living together with the youth. I also wanted to examine what happens when there were conflicts between them as signs of tensions in the relationships. In addition to this I wanted to study the relations between power and influence in their relationships where Hassela strives for democracy. My questions were the following; How do the youth and the staff describe the relationships between them? How do conflicts work between them at Hassela? What does the relationship between power and influence look like?The study is based on qualitative interviews with four clients and four social workers.
