This thesis has created an image of the exchange of information among teachers in the Swedish upper secondary school. The study indicates that the exchange of information seems to be limited at all levels and the exchange that takes place outside the own teaching team occurs mainly through teachers personal networks. The study also shows barriers that may exist and the opportunities that an increased exchange may generate. From the picture that the empirical material provides and the theory that is presented a discussion is made around how IT can best support the organizational learning in schools. A concrete proposal is that at national level an IT platform should be created, which primarily focuses on materials that are created by its users and has an open architecture with a single login..

AbstractThis bachelor thesis was performed at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm on behalf of the Land Survey Authority. The thesis is about fish conservation and division of fishing water at official duty. It is the Land Survey Authority that examines division of fisheries, but before a case can be implemented, certain requirements must be achieved such as FBL 3:8, which prevent divisions that are deleterious for fish conservation. The purpose of this thesis is: to obtain a clearer view how FBL 3:8 should be applied in practice, how the application differs between the offices in central Sweden, and how fish care is regulated at both international and national levels.At an international level, in EU the commercial fishery is regulated through the common fisheries policy (CFP). The fisheries policy consists of a reform that will last for 10 years.

The purpose of this thesis is to study how swedishness is constructed and narrated in two Swedish documentary series that picture the Swedish participation in the international ISAF mission in Afghanistan. The main focus lies on how the Swedish soldier as such is portrayed, on which values, characteristics and qualities that they are said to embody and how these are linked to notions of swedishness, particularly the strong historical narrative, formed during the second half of the twentieth century, that defines Sweden as a peaceful, neutral and humanitarian state, with peaceful, enlightened and democratically minded citizens. Theoretically it draws on the concept of metanarrative to explain how ideas of shared national origin translates in to a broad organizing discourse, that defines, interprets and communicates notions of what it means to be a Swede and what is needed to make claims on swedishness. Another concept, that of national bodyscape, is also used to further define and explain how ideas of nationality are embodied and take the form of specific characteristics and  personal qualities. The meaning-making in these two series makes use of the above mentioned definition of swedishness as defined by humanitarian concerns, democratic ideals and moral superiority to construct an image of the Swedish soldiers as on the one hand soft, humanitarians, who are needed in Afghanistan because of their especially strong sense of justice and moral, and, on the other, as tough soldiers, who are able to participate in every aspect of the war as fighters.

As a teacher in baking and patisserie courses there can be difficulties in following the curriculum for Patisserie 1. If this leads to an education that is not the same for all the schools in the country, it creates a problem that has to be solved. The results of this investigation show that teachers generally do not follow the curriculum but instead chooses their own solutions. Some conclusions that have come forth are that the National Agency for Education needs to make the curriculum clearer and give tangible examples of products, that can either be classified as easy or complicated, in the field of baking and pastry courses. I have chosen the standardized interview method.

The swedish national environmental goals have different policies and developments connected to them in order to achieve the goals on time, but the implementation of the different policies differ and is hard to evaluate compared to the theoretical background. With this thesis I have chosen to investigate the climate investment programmes results in Östersund compared to its goals with a case study. The different projects within the climate investment programme have reduced the emissions of CO2, but not in the amount that was anticipated and a lot of the projects were within projects that the municipality already was developing or doing. .

This paper appeals to professionals working with green questions. It intends to create a discussion about which plant species that can be established in a fieldlayer of a naturelike planting on fertile agricultural land. To initiate the essay, a studie of which values that can be connected with an establishment of a fieldlayer was performed . A part of Tor Nitzelius Park in Alnarp, a so called naturlike planting on fertile agricultural land, was used as a model for the choice of species. With the aid of soil values, photos and a list of current species, interviews with four ecologists were performed.

En stads centrum är dit du går för att möta andra människor, bli överraskad, få nya intryck, föreviga ögonblick och skapa nya ögonblick. Luleås centrum dör ut under kvällstid, delvis eftersom den största attraktionen är detaljhandeln. Denna uppsats ger förslag på hur Luleå kommun kan tillgodose sina invånares önskan att få en central mötesplats i staden. Förslaget är att ge parkeringsplatsen Trekanten i Luleå centrum en ny funktion som mötesplats. Uppsatsen börjar med att ta undersöka vad en mötesplats är och vad som är de grundläggande förutsättningarna för att en mötesplats ska uppstå. Sedan redovisar den reultatet på en enkät ställd till Luleås invånare samt platsanalyser gjorda på Trekanten.

Aim: The aim of the study was to investigate 1RM and what power could be generated in bench-press and half squat concentric at certain percentages of 1RM. Special interest was put to evaluate men (M) and women (K), strength trained (ST) verses non strength trained (EST) in generating absolute power as well as power relative to 1RM.Method: In total 59 subjects mean (± SD) age 24.9 ± 4.1 years divided into four test groups: 20 male non strength trained GIH-students (EST M), 20 female non strength trained GIH-students (EST K), 10 male strength trained - sprinters on national/regional level (ST M), 10 female strength trained - sprinters (ST K) on national/regional level. They did two tests on 1RM and power in events of concentric bench-press and half squat in a Smith machine. In the first test session 3 ? 5 lifts were made to measure 1RM in each event.

The number of inhabitants of the towns and city centers have generelly increased, concurrent as the population in smaller towns has decreased. In Stockholm, the migration is very fast and here is also the most populous place, if one compares with other Sweden. In order to respond to the increasing population and the pressure they put on city spaces has Stockholm's town a town building strategy that says "build inwards". It means that one stem seals the town with spaces and business activities in central locations. The increased population in the towns and the densification of buildings leads however to an increased pressure on parks and public places.

Marktäckande perenner används mer och mer i offentliga sammanhang. Detta arbete handlar om hur låga marktäckande perenner kan fungera som undervegetation och vilka perenner som kan fungera bra i sådana miljöer. Riktigt låga perenner som tar tid på sig att breda ut sig eller höga perenner med stora blad, som också bör kallas marktäckare, behandlas inte. Syftet med arbetet var att ta reda på vilka perenner som fungerar bra som undervegetation till träd och buskar i park och trädgård. Ett resultat är att det är avgörande för en planterings överlevnad och fortsatta funktion, att ha kunskap om platsen, platsens karaktär och ståndorten och att därefter använda växter som passar in där. Det betyder att de växter man väljer måste vara så pass livskraftiga och konkurrenskraftiga att de kan klara av att tävla om rotutrymmet i en plantering med träd och buskar.

Stockholm är en stad där grönstrukturen i stadens närförorter länge har haft en roll som ett stadsdelsskiljande, sammanhängande grönt nät och där stadens inriktning har varit att bevara denna struktur. I förtätningens era i den starkt växande staden målas grönområdena nu istället upp som den mark som återstår att bygga på, där det gröna nätet är ett hot mot en sammanhängande stadsstruktur. I detta arbete behandlades frågeställningen om det hade det skett en förändring i Stockholms stads beskrivning av grönstruktur i den översiktliga planeringen. Metoden som användes var att jämföra Stockholms översiktsplan 1999 med översiktsplan 2010 efter ett antal frågor om grönstruktur. Varje fråga besvarades med sammanfattningar eller citat från de båda översiktsplanerna och en efterföljande analys. Resultatet tyder på att en förändring har skett i stadens beskrivning av grönstruktur, den gröna strukturen har inte en lika central roll i den nya översiktsplanen och har inte längre ett eget kapitel eller karta.

Syftet med uppsatsen a?r att o?ka fo?rsta?elsen dels fo?r hur olika brukargruppers samutnyttjande av offentliga platser fungerar och dels fo?r hur detta hanteras inom planeringen. Anva?nda teorier behandlar det offentliga rummets demokratiska funktion och brukares upplevelse av det. En kvalitativ metod har anva?nts da?r observationer och intervjuer med brukare i Trekantsparken och planerare samt planeringsdokument fra?n Stockholms stad har varit grunden fo?r empirin, en kvalitativ analys har sedan utfo?rts.

Today there are many applications of digital terrain models (DTM) and the requirements of low uncertainty increases. Most of the DTM are produced with Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), terrestrial laser scanning (TLS), airborne laser scanning (ALS) and total stations. Guidelines for the preparation and verification of DTM are found in Swedish Standards Institute ? Technical Specifications (SIS-TS) 21144:2007 and SIS-TS 21145:2007. These were defined in collaboration between Swedish National Rail Administration, Banverket, and Swedish Road Administration, Vägverket, to satisfy the needs of requirement formulations in the production of DTM planning, design and construction. The purpose of this paper is to produce and control DTM over Åkermans kulle, located west of the University of Gävle, according to SIS TS 21144:2007 using GNSS with network-RTK, TLS and ALS.

Uppsatsens målsättning var att försöka hitta lösningar på rotinträngnings-problemen genom ett ökat samarbete mellan VA-verken och parkförvalt-ningarna. Uppsatsen har till stor del byggts på de intervjuer som genomförts i de olika kommunerna. De fyra kommunerna som undersökts är: Malmö, Skövde, Katrineholm och Växjö. Genom intervjuerna i dessa kommuner har jag funnit mönster till hur samarbeten mellan VA-verken och parkförvalt-ningarna utvecklas. En modell för hur samarbeten ska inledas och utvecklas i kommunerna har sedan föreslagits.
