Syftet med det här examensarbetet är att genom intervjuer försöka ta reda på hur man som lärare kan utforma det bästa utvecklingssamtalet för alla parter i verksamheten förskoleklass. Vi har tittat på viktiga punkter att ha med, vart fokus ligger samt vilka hinder och dilemman som kan uppstå. Vi har genomfört tio kvalitativt semistrukturerade intervjuer med utbildade förskollärare i fyra olika förskoleklasser. Resultatet har visat att viktiga punkter och det man fokuserar på är hur barnet trivs, om den är trygg och hur det sociala kring barnet ser ut samt att man framåt våren även fokuserar på barnets språkutveckling samt dess matematiska kunskaper. Dilemman och hinder som uppstår har visat sig vara allt från vårdnadshavarnas inställning till lärarens inställning i olika avseenden.

Under temat Skräck och rädsla har ungdomar i år 8 läst klassiska skräckhistorier och nyare spökhistorier, skrivit egna skräckberättelser, läst, ritat och svarat på frågor om en modern spökhistoria, sett på film samt gett tips om böcker och film på detta tema. Syftet och metoden med min undersökning var att jag, genom att systematisera och studera vissa givna ämnen,  ville se vad ungdomar påverkas av och hur deras bild av skräck ser ut. Jag har även sökt efter skillnader i pojkars och flickors bok- och filmtips och tolkat bilder av ungdomars sätt att se på döden. Resultatet av undersökningen visade att ungdomar idag påverkas till stor del av innehållet i filmer och dataspel och till något mindre del av böcker. Begreppet skräck innehåller lika mycket monster, vampyrer, mörka skogar, knivar och övergivna hus nu idag som det gjorde då, när själva skräckgenren uppstod.

Computational thinking was brought to the forefront in 2006 by Jeannette Wing. Computational thinking is a problem solving method that uses computer science techniques.The thesis is analyzing computational thinking and how it could be applied to graph theory. Characteristics and main fields from computational thinking is being analysed. This analysis is applied to graph theory to see the potential in developing a proposal for how an exercise can look for an introductory course in discrete data types. Only basic knowledge of graphs is required to perform the exercise.

The purpose of this essay is to further the understanding of contemporary management theory by conducting an analogy-study of the source to many of the terms today used in knowledge-intensive companies. The way a football club deals with knowledge work differs from how a conventional company deals with it. However, many of the terms, such as teamwork and coaching, are shared by the two types of organization. By using the analogy-method we hope to create a wider understanding for the shared concepts. We have used a hermeneutic perspective throughout the essay, which first and foremost means that we focus on understanding and explaining social phenomenons.

Bakgrund: Grunden till området som på svenska brukar benämnas ekonomistyrning och på engelska"management control"lades av Anthony 1965 och dominerar än idag litteraturen på området. Sedan dess har dock ytterligare decentralisering och en orientering mot processer och flöden ägt rum i företagen. Detta, menar vi, inte har gjort några avtryck i"management control"-litteraturen. Syfte: Syftet med denna uppsats är att kartlägga den ekonomiska ansvarsfördelningen i svenska kommersiella decentraliserade företag. Vidare syftar uppsatsen till att beskriva hur personer ålagda sådant ansvar upplever detta samt hur dessa använder ekonomisk information.

Teckning är ett arbetsområde som har hängt med från den allra tidigaste bildundervisningen, där den ännu utgör en grundbult i en alltmer svårdefinierad sammansättning. På förtjänstfulla sätt kan man idag kombinera enkla material med modern teknologi, t ex för att skapa uttryck, lösa uppgifter eller underlätta estetisk kommunikation..

The purpose of this essay is to analyze the media coverage of the case with Martin Schibbye and Johan Persson in the four biggest newspapers in Sweden in order to see how social constructions is created through the use of language. It is also of interest to see how nationality is represented in the material. The theory is based on Edward Said?s theory of post colonialism and the prejudices that has developed from the western way of viewing ?The orient?. It is also based on Richard Dyers theory on whiteness and binary oppositions, which shows how ?whiteness? is viewed as the norm and is also never questioned.The method is critical linguistics and based on Norman Fairclough and Michael Halliday.

In the social sciences, geopolitical theory is used in order to analyze states actions and commitments when it comes to foreign policy. This thesis develops a new understanding of geopolitical theory. Firstly, the development and application of geopolitical theory, from its foundations in the early twentieth century to contemporary geopolitical studies is discussed. Secondly a revised understanding of the variables integrated in the concept and how it can be operationalized as an analytical tool is presented and tested empirically.The critical assessment of the research field of geopolitical theory tells us that six different geopolitical perspectives have been considered the most influential (room, strategy, power projection, identity, affiliation and governance) when it comes to analyzing state action. This model is applied as an analytical tool and thus tested on a single case.

The purpose of this study is to examine how activities are looked upon, organized and put into practice at homes designed for the elderly. To achieve this we have done a survey study, based upon the caregiver´s point of view regarding the subject activity. The result of this study has been interpreted and analyzed with help from the engagement- and disengagement theories. The result shows us that the caregiver´s find the term activity slightly abstract, and rather difficult to define. All of the caregiver´s did agree on the matter that it?s good to activate elderly people and that the elderly people are activated at a large extent.
