Undersökningen syftar till att skapa kunskap om barns och lärares handlingar inför mötet med teater och diskutera vad dessa handlingar har att berätta om lärares yrkeskunskaper och barns hinder och tillträde till kultur.Undersökningen studeras med kritisk diskursteori och narrativ teori genom Foucaults teorier om diskurser och makt. Som metod för att studera handlingarna i skolteaterfoajén används deltagande observationer som analyseras med Greimas aktantsmodell och skrivs fram med narrativer. Det är åtta skolteaterpubliker med barn 5-9 år och deras lärare i två olika teaterfoajéer som studerats innan de går in för att se en teaterföreställning.Skolteaterbesöket äger rum i en social pedagogisk praktik i ett diskursivt spel mellan skoldiskur-sen, teaterdiskursen och barndiskurser. Resultatet av studien visar att lärare agerar med avledande, påminnande och avbrytande handlingar gentemot barn som avvaktar, protesterar och undviker. Lärares handlingar karaktäriseras av disciplinerande makt och då fler hinder än tillträden skapas har de en differentierande funktion och betydelse för barns olika tillträde till kultur.

This essay is based on students' growing lack of interest in science at school. Both from a democratic and social perspective, this is a worrying factor for the future. Through observation, I investigated how five science teachers conduct their teaching. This is to get a better understanding of how teachers' behaviour in the classroom can affect students' interest in science. With a socio-cultural research approach, I have tried to highlight a few pieces of the puzzle that may explain students' declining interest in science.

The purpose of this thesis is to look into the knowledge city concept and the preferences and requirements of companies on such a city. Furthermore, suggestions of ideal conditions in a knowledge city are proposed. The thesis has been conducted through a qualitative approach where a deductive procedure has been implemented. In order to examine knowledge cities, Barcelona has sketchily been looked at as an early example of a knowledge city, whereas a more exhaustive observation of Copenhagen was conducted. Since the concept of knowledge cities is a rather new phenomenon, models from several disciplines constitute the theoretical framework.

Sammanfattning Bakgrunden till mitt Examensarbete är att jag som student på magisterprogrammet för fysisk planering skall göra ett examensarbete som motsvarar 30 hp i slutuppgift. Mitt Examensarbete är ett utredande arbete av medborgardeltagandet inom fysisk planering. Syftet är att studera om och hur planprocessen påverkas av systemet, och dess relationer till medborgarna. Syftet är även att undersöka hur man kan genomföra en planprocess i en redan bebyggd miljö. Analysen visar att Södra Älvstranden som använt sig av ett ambitiöst upplagt medborgardeltagande, både innehåller faktorer som gynnar och missgynnar deltagarnas tillit till varandra och till systemet i sig.

ABSTRAKTTitel: Ledarskap och motivation inom bemanningsbranschen - Konsultchefers uppfattning av motivationsbehovet hos konsulterNivå: C-uppsats i ämnet företagsekonomiFörfattare: Christoffer Rönnqvist och Alice SchmuckHandledare: Maria Fregidou MalamaDatum: 2012-06-14Syfte: Genom att vara anställd hos bemanningsföretag befinner man sig i en trepartsrelation som består av en själv, konsultchefen och kundföretaget. Detta innebär att konsultchefer kan ha det svårt att motivera sina konsulter, eftersom de utför sitt arbete på olika platser. Syftet med detta arbete är att identifiera och analysera konsultchefers uppfattning av motivationsbehovet hos sina anställda i bemanningsföretag. Två forskningsfrågor har undersökts: Forskningsfråga #1: Hur uppfattar konsultchefer vikten av inre motivation hos konsulter inom bemanningsbranschen? Forskningsfråga #2: Vilka verktyg använder sig konsultchefer av för att motivera sina konsulter?Metod: Vi genomförde intervjuer med öppna svarsalternativ som kvalitativ metod med en induktiv utgångspunkt för att uppfylla syftet.

The purpose of this thesis is to study and determine how working in cross functional teams can generate value in an effort to facilitate innovation. An inductive scientific perspective is chosen as the research approach. A single case is investigated with the theoretical framework based on Resource Based View, Intellectual Capital, Innovation theory and theories concerning Cross Functional Teams. The empirical material has been collected through primary data; surveys, interviews and secondary data; literature, websites and further complementary data. The practice of using Cross Functional Teams will enhance organizational learning, knowledge transfer, increase communication and innovation, which in turn will increase the speed and performance of the new product development process.

 AbstractAttractiveness may be defined by a variety of factors but you should see it in the public planning as it is to have a positive population growth and economic growth, through working with communications, service, housing, to name a few. This is done primarily through direct projects both within the municipality and through various partnerships between local and regional level. The progress we have seen in recent years has gone more towards a clear shell level, particularly a regional level where these have had a much greater freedom with clear geographical boundaries in between each other. Within these regions there are also clear regional groupings that have common interests and competing between each other. In my thesis, we have been distinguished including three levels of scale levels.

 In light of the resent surge in globalization, and the heightened competition that follows as a result of this, there has been an increase in the importance that is placed into understanding buyer behaviour. This increase has been seen since the realization that by building strong customer relationships it is much easier to reach these through the marketing communications that are put in effect. There are also a number of upsides to enlisting the customers at an early stage in product development, such as creating greater value and a stronger sense of involvement.Röhnisch is therefore trying to show a genuine interest in supplying the costumers needs as they adapt and evolve. In order to accomplish this strive towards gaining a deeper understanding into the thoughts and attitudes that precedes the buying behaviour they conduct regular surveys. To complement this, the purpose of this paper will be to determine the actual preferences and buying behaviour of the market segment that Röhnisch has chosen for themselves, and while doing so, keeping an emphasis on loyalty.

I takt med att arbetsmarknaden blivit alltmer global vill företagen snabbt kunna förändra arbetsstyrkan vid behov. Detta har lett till att efterfrågan på inhyrd personal har växt och bemanningsbranschen har således blivit en naturlig del av den svenska arbetsmarknaden. Individer som arbetar på ett bemanningsföretag, ambulerande tjänstemän, är en del i ett trepartsförhållande med arbetsgivaren och uppdragsgivaren. Syftet med undersökningen är att undersöka ambulerande tjänstemäns relation till arbetsgivaren och vilken betydelse relationen har för känslan av tillhörighet till arbetsgivaren hos de ambulerande tjänstemännen. Till grund för undersökningen ligger intervjuer med fem ambulerande tjänstemän samt en gruppintervju med tre chefer.
