Fysisk hälsa hos vuxna personer med schizofreni

Hälsa anses vara en mänsklig rättighet och är svårdefinierbart då det upplevs olika av olika individer. Psykisk ohälsa behöver inte innebära en psykiatrisk diagnos . Den definieras snarare utifrån hur man hanterar olika livssituationer som kan stötas på under livets gång. Schizofreni är en livslång och allvarlig sjukdom som påverkar hur personen tänker, känner och beter sig. De svåra symtomen som sjukdomen innebär kan vara begränsande för den drabbade, vilket kan få konsekvenser för den fysiska hälsan.

Cognitive decline can have severe negative impacts on the life of both dog and owner, when the dog for example forgets being housetrained or starts being awake at night.

Två filmer om medeltiden- kunskap, förståelse och historiemedvetande

Syftet med detta arbete är att diskutera förhållandet mellan historisk spelfilm och historieundervisningen i den svenska skolan idag. Spelfilm har blivit en del av elevers vardag och historiker diskuterar i allt högre grad hur historia används i spelfilmer och hur detta påverkar vårt historiemedvetande. Möjligtvis är det så att detta bruk av historia leder till ett nytt historiemedvetande. Film kan ses som ett pedagogiskt redskap, en upplevelse som leder fram till intresse och kunskap. Vad detta arbete strävar mot är att undersöka om man kan lära sig något om det förflutna genom historisk spelfilm samt om historisk spelfilm kan utveckla elevers historiemedvetande. Arbetet tar sin utgångspunkt i ett projekt om historisk spelfilm genomfört med högstadie- och gymnasieelever på två skånska skolor. Med avstamp i visandet av två filmer om medeltiden; Robin Hood- Prince of Thieves och En riddares historia, diskuteras faktakunskap, förståelse och historiemedvetande..
