Syfte: Syftet med uppsatsen var att undersöka och jämföra förväntningar och faktiska upplevelser på Birka, dels från arrangörernas sida och dels från besökarnas sida. Genom att ta reda på vilken upplevelse Riksantikvarieämbetet och Strömma Turism och Sjöfart vill ge sina besökare så kunde vi sedan mäta förväntningar och upplevelser bland besökarna och således jämföra dessa.Metod: Vi genomförde denna undersökning genom att hålla två kvalitativa intervjuer med dels Lena Johansson på Riksantikvarieämbetet och dels Andreas Forsgren på Strömma Turism och Sjöfart. Vidare så delade vi ut en enkätundersökning vid två olika tillfällen till besökare på Birka.Slutsats: Både Riksantikvarieämbetet och Strömma Turism och Sjöfarts mål är att ge sina besökare en genuin och lärorik upplevelse i vikingatida miljö. Resultatet visar att besökarnas förväntningar överrensstämmer med deras mål, medan den faktiska upplevelsen varierade. För många av besökarna överträffade upplevelsen förväntningarna, men för de allra flesta motsvarade upplevelsen bara deras förväntningar.

In this thesis I set out to study how the reading of fictional literature is viewed, legitimatized and operationalized in two educational domains: the recently revised steering documents that all Swedish teachers must relate to, as well as a selection of teaching materials designed for education in the Swedish language for upper secondary school. The teaching material I have studied has been recently updated in order to correspond with the new steering documents. I relate my analysis to previous research about the use of fiction in education, and I also combine my analysis of the two educational domains to see whether the underlying intentions of the steering documents have influenced the revision of the teaching material. The outcome indicates that the steering documents? previous focus on culture has diminished although a certain insecurity as to how to use the concept and deal with the issue of whose culture should be taught can be identified.

The main aim of this master thesis was to see the process of an interactive online reference service from idea to final product. The reference service we have studied is developed and used by the Library of the National Institute for Working Life in Stockholm, Sweden and goes by the name phibi. Our goal was to review the whole realization process from the reasons why a service like this was created, how the service was introduced and implemented inside the organisation and finally what the result and consequences were for both the library staff and for the users of the service. Phibi is designed to be a tool that fosters communication between the library staff and the remote users where the users get the opportunity to be helped with their questions by the library staff although they are not physically present in the library. To understand the process we conducted a case study with 11 interviews of the library staff, the superior and the initiator to phibi.

In present-day situation many libraries use detectors so that they can be able to prevent attempts too take out books without registering them.

This is a big problem since the library staff don?t have time to check all signals that comes from detector.

SAMMANFATTNINGBakgrundMålet med neurointensivvården idag är att förebygga sekundära ischemiska skador på hjärnanoch därigenom förbättra patienternas outcome. Evidensbaserade riktlinjer, god utbildning ochmultifaktoriellövervakning hjälper intensivvårdspersonalen att utföra en god omvårdnad somligger till grund för prioritering och planering av det dagliga arbetet.SyfteAtt undersöka hur stor andel av utförda omvårdnadsåtgärder som ledde till sekundära insulter.MetodPå en neurointensivvårdsavdelning registrerades tidpunkten för sju olika omvårdnadsåtgärderpå 18 patienter som vårdades i respirator med intrakraniell tryckmätare. Tidpunkten förregistreringen korrelerades med insamlade övervakningsdata för att bedöma om en sekundärinsult förorsakades i form av ICP>20 mm Hg, CPP<60 mm Hg eller systoliskt BT<100 mmHg.Resultat7,9 % av de 1766 registrerade omvårdnadsåtgärder förorsakade en sekundär insult. Ingetsamband mellan ålder och sekundära eller mellan medvetandegrad vid inkomst och sekundärainsulter kunde påvisas. Vid analys av enskilda omvårdnadsåtgärder gentemot övrigaomvårdnadsåtgärder föll sugning ut som statistiskt signifikant (p = 0,0285) genom att orsakafärre insulter av ICP >20 mmHg än förväntat.SlutsatsDet är av stor vikt att intensivvårdsjuksköterskan är medveten om och tydlig i sin ansvarsrollgenom att aktivt planera, prioritera och fördela omvårdnadsarbetet, så att varjeomvårdnadssituation bedöms utifrån patientens individuella behov för att förhindrauppkomsten av sekundära insulter..

The value of a company's employees is considered to be higher and more important for a business success than ever. Losing employees is not only a loss of valuable knowledge, it also implies a significant cost related to the recruitment of new employees. To attract potential personnel, it is important for the companies to understand how to communicate with talents. Choosing a communication medium for a job advertisement is not easy when new options constantly arise. Despite the development of new communication mediums and channels, such as social mediums, the traditional communication medias still remain available.
