The Swedish population is getting older and more elderly will continue to be in need ofsupport from the community to meet their everyday lives. As the population gets olderdementia also increases the spread in the country. Because of this more people withdementia will be in need of help in their everyday lives. This will increase the demandson elderly care in the municipalities where they have to offer good care. As moreindividuals suffering from dementia will be in need of help in their daily lives aid officers'encounters with people suffering from dementia and their relatives or any representativesbecome more common.The study had as objective to study aid officer's reasoning on the treatment of dementedindividuals in need of help.

The results of the study areof interest to teachers and organizations that want to develop educationalmaterial that integrate sustainable development in mathematics education.The main focus of the study has been the teachers? preferences on dispositionand design.Semi-structured interviews were conducted with seven mathematics teachersin the Stockholm area.

A systematic quality work is essential for anyone working in preschool, school,kindergarten and adult education to give children and students an equal education.Skollagen (2010:800) indicates that quality work should be focused on the nationalgoals of education. According to Skolverkets allmänna råd med kommentarer omsystematiskt kvalitetsarbete - för skolväsendet (2012) is the work to develop quality acontinuous process. Everyone's involvement and participation is therefore essential.Systematic quality work means to systematically and continuously monitor theactivities, analyze performance against national targets and based on that plan anddevelop. Although the work has been driven outside governmental policy documentssince 1997 shows, among others, Skolinspektionens audits of municipalities andschools that there is major deficiencies in the obligation to conduct a systematicquality work. It appears that more than half of the surveyed schools had deficienciesin its system quality work.This is the starting position this study takes on to and through literature review,document studies and interviews of principals is the subject problematized.

Bakgrund: Ekonomiska rapporter tas ofta fram av slentrian i små företag och småföretagare har många gånger svårt att förstå informationen som finns i de ekonomiska rapporterna och använder den inte heller som underlag för sitt beslutsfattande. De förlitar sig hellre på intuition och fingertoppskänsla. Vi menar att småföretagare borde bli mer medvetna om hur de kan dra nytta av de ekonomiska rapporterna. Syfte: Syftet är att ge ett bidrag till diskussionen kring rapportanvändning i små företag. Med bidrag menar vi dels att utreda vilka ekonomiska beslut som fattas i små företag dels vilka variabler som kan vara avgörande för i vilken utsträckning ekonomiska månadsrapporter används som beslutsunderlag.

Syftet med studien var att ur ett lärarperspektiv beskriva självkänslans betydelse för elevers lärande samt lärarens roll i detta. Utifrån litteraturen såg vi att det finns ett klart samband mellan elevers självkänsla och deras skolprestationer, forskningen säger dock olika i frågan om det är hög självkänsla som leder till goda studieresultat, eller vice versa. Litteraturen visade även att elever ofta utvecklar olika försvarsstrategier för att skydda sin självkänsla. Det som kanske påverkar självkänslan mest är det sociala samspelet tillsammans med andra människor, exempelvis föräldrar, lärare och vänner. Tre kvalitativa intervjuer genomfördes med tre lärare på olika skolor som alla jobbar mot grundskolans tidigare år.

Each student in elementary school will under current policy documents have an individual development plan (IEP) from 1 January 2006. The plan should primarily aim for a higher goal achievement, but also to the student to gain a greater understanding of their own learning process and knowledge. My experience is that some students, despite efforts IUP have difficulty seeing their own learning process and it has been the starting point of my study. The aim of the study has been to investigate and analyze teachers work with individual development plans from the first grade to the sixth grade from a teacher's perspective. The goal was to identify strategies and techniques that could help develop IUP as a tool for the student's learning and understanding of their own learning process.

This essay is an examination of the examples in Kant?s Critique of Judgement. The examples which I have focused on all converge in an idea of wildness. These examples of the beautiful are illuminated by a culture-historical perspective, where the literary and scientific travelogue genre is of great importance. Apart from being exegetic and culture historical, my method is also analytic.

Den tekniska och medicinska utvecklingen inom intensivvård har inneburit att intensivvårdsjuksköterskors ställs inför allt högre krav. Intensivvårdssjuksköterskor förväntas ha unika tekniska färdigheter, medicinsk omvårdnadskompetens och förmåga att bemöta patienter och deras närstående i akuta situationer. Syftet med studien var att beskriva hur erfarna intensivvårdssjuksköterskor utvecklas i yrkesrollen. Nio intensivvårdssjuksköterskor från två intensivvårdsavdelningar i Norrbotten intervjuades med öppna frågor. Intervjuerna analyserades som text med kvalitativ innehållsanalys.

Sammanfattning Undersökningen har syftat till att få en förståelse för hur personalchefer förhåller sig till begreppen anställningsbarhet och karriärutveckling under anställningsprocesser. Dessutom har vi även undersökt vad personalcheferna efterfrågar för att den sökande ska ses som anställningsbar. Vi har även studerat vad som kan känneteckna individer som eftersträvar karriärutveckling på arbetsplatsen. Studien är en kvalitativ undersökning som bygger på intervjuer med fem personalchefer verksamma inom olika företag i södra delarna av Sverige. Vi har använt oss av socialpsykologiska teorier för att analysera hur tankeprocesser och erfarenheter kan påverka en individ i mötet med arbetssökande. För att analysera personalchefernas syn på de anställdas karriärutveckling har vi använt oss av karriärterorier. Det resultat vi fått fram i studien visar på att det finns faktorer som är gemensamma för alla personalcheferna i förhållande till det de söker efter för att se en sökande som anställningsbar.

With examples from a single classroom situation, several educational moments show what goes on between the teacher and the student. The teacher?s responsibility in the learning process is, with a gesture frozen in the air of the moment, to lead and follow the student in her tentative efforts at seeking knowledge. Initially, it is an attempt to shed light upon the "not yet seen" with a certainty that the student herself possesses the capacity and the aptitude to reach greater insight and clarity in her understanding. The Validation/Feil Method presented in this instructional situation illustrates how best to communicate with elderly people suffering from Alzheimer?s dementia.

International regulations target a global reduction of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions through the allocation of national reduction targets and the definition of mechanisms to achieve these targets. One of these mechanisms is international emissions trading, these trading programs have been the targets of widespread criticism since they were introduced into the policy-making arena. The point of departure in this study has been that the trading raises questions about morality, since it implies signals, which legitimates pollution. The main purpose with this study has been to find out if emissions trading systems can be morally justified with the method of wide reflective equilibrium. From the study it was found that the moral intuition; it is wrong to pollute the environment, and perform activities, which legitimates pollution, finds support from the different theories within environmental ethics and Kantian ethics.

Fo?religgande uppsats handlar om den tysta kommunikationen som gestaltas i klassrum av la?rare och elever i skolan.

Genom en systematisk litteraturstudie besvaras fra?gesta?llningar ro?rande vardera ovan na?mnda aspekter na?mligen; Hur kan tyst kunskap komma till uttryck hos la?rare, vad kan ske i tysta relationer mellan la?rare ? elev och elev ? elev samt vad kan kropp respektive miljo? som redskap ha fo?r betydelse fo?r kommunikationen.

The purpose of this essay is to examine the concept of competence within the social services. More specifically it aims to find out how the social workers themselves look upon their own competence in social investigations concerning children. As the study was based on focus groups the main questions were vague at the beginning and were cleared later on during the group sessions.In three focus group interviews in three different municipalities in southern Sweden 11 social workers were asked to discuss this issue. The interviews were then thoroughly transcribed. In the data I identified 9 themes seeming to play a special roll in the discussions about competence: practice; experience; approach; intuition; responsibility; theories, methods and laws; reflection; resources and ethics; specialisation versus integration.The analysis made on these themes was based on two different kinds of perspective; one focusing knowing-in-action and the other focusing the organization framing the competence considered.As a conclusion the 7 first themes can be seen as a definition of the competence used in social investigations concerning children.
