He mean that a new coherent view on education is required and should be based on students? understandings.

Wermland was affected by the Spanish flu like the Swedish national average, about a half percentage of Wermlands population would lose their lives to the flu during the autumn 1918. The flu has for many fallen into oblivion. This oblivion is so wide spread that it´s possible to talk about a "collective forgetfulness". The society have selected to remember 1918 for "when the guns went quiet on the western front" and not for the millions who died from the treacherous Spanish flu. The world had already suffered enough from the four years of war that had been fought, thus the victims of the flu would be honored but would soon fade in to oblivion.  When you investigate deeper you get the picture that the national average don´t do Wermland and its cities or rural areas any justice when a large variations seems to occur within regional areas.

This essay presents an examination of some aspects of an anonymous Italian fifteenth centurypainting, the Madonna in Adoration of the Christ Child with the Young John the Baptist, in theGothenborg Art Museum. My first aim is to understand its symbolic and religious content, and theother is to make an attempt at an attribution, or at least put the work in a likely environment,temporally and geographically. To the first end I analyse the image using Panofsky?s three stagemethod, and then make an iterpretation using the ?period eye? concept of Baxandall, especially froma religious viewpoit. Secondly, I try to define the style of the work mainly by analysing selectedparameters from a large number of fifteenth century Italian pictures found in the photo archive ofthe Federico Zeri Foundation website on the internet.

Syftet med arbetet har varit att skapa informationsmaterial till Eskilstuna konstmuseum som är anpassat efter målgruppen. Detta önskades eftersom inget liknande material fanns sedan tidigare på konstmuseet. Målet var att besökare och potentiella besökare snabbt skulle kunna få en överblick av vad museet hade att erbjuda. Men också för att ge besökare en möjlighet att kunna få förståelse för vad som visas och hur utställningarna är uppbyggda, utan att behöva gå en guidad tur.Detta har gjorts till större delen genom analyser och litteraturstudier, men utprovningar har också varit en stor del av arbetet.Resultatet blev två broschyrer som togs fram enligt riktlinjer för informationsdesign, en informationsbroschyr och en broschyr om samlingen..

Detta examensarbete har skett i samarbete med Stadsmuseet i Skövde inför en utställning under sommaren och hösten 2013 om staden Skövdes skyddshelgon S:ta Elin. Arbetet innehåller en undersökning om hur en 3D-animerad karaktärs icke-verbala uppförande tillsammans med dess ikonografiska attribut kan fungera engagerande för publiken på ett sätt som stödjer syfte och mål med utställningen. För utställningen var målet att göra besökarna intresserade av vad som ligger bakom legenden. För utvärderingen skapades en prototyp i form av animerad 3D-karaktär som ingick i en kortfilm till utställningen om Elinlegenden. Karaktären Elin var i filmen "stum", i betydelsen att hon inte talade själv, därför var det viktigt att hennes karaktär ändå klarade att uttrycka personlighetsdrag.

This thesis is dealing with the programs of control regarding deceit and quality assurance within the Swedish social insurance administration in Skåne, the years 2002-2005. In 2005 the Swedish National Audit Office released a report regarding the lack of measures towards deceit and fraud, and the lack of quality in the data for decision making within the administration. The questions to be addressed are why the administration does not make up to the demands regarding quality and measures towards deceit that the government and The National Audit Office demands.

To understand and be able to explain the problems within the administration the theory by Michael Lipsky regarding street-level bureaucrats is used.

Turismbranschen är en bransch som förefaller vara på väg framåt. Detta är givetvis bra, framförallt ur ekonomisk synvinkel, för olika typer av besöksmål runt om i Sverige och världen. Samtidigt så hårdnar dock konkurrensen om besökarnas tid och uppmärksamhet då fler och fler aktörer kliver in på scenen. För att möta den konkurensen så har en del av de äldre besöksmålen, exempelvis museerna, börjat modernisera sin produkt för att passa den moderna besökaren. Men kan det vara så att detta sker på bekostnad av, i fallet med museer, autenticiteten hos det som presenteras?I den här uppsatsen undersöks det som presenteras på ett modernt, upprustat, museum i form av Flygvapenmuseum i Linköping.

This thesis presents a study aiming to identify the selection criteria for the digitization of posters at the National Library of Sweden (Kungl. biblioteket). The theory is that cultural heritage institutions are empowered to decide how our cultural heritage is presented as they select what items (or, as in this study, posters) will be digitized. The poster is studied as it is an interesting media form which historically was an important means of communication. The poster can represent and reflect historical events and opinions in society.
