Inom Polismyndigheten i Skåne pågår ett Förändra-program, vilket går ut på att medarbetare som av olika skäl vill byta arbete har möjligheten att göra det med stöd i detta program. Deltagarna ska även få en djupare insikt om sina och andras behov och värderingar. Programmet pågår under ett år och innehåller ett flertal internat, med inriktning på individen, ett mentorskap, samt arbete på olika praktikplatser. Vårt syfte är att analysera konsekvenserna av Förändraprogrammet med avseende på individuellt lärande. Vi genomförde semistrukturerade intervjuer med nio personer som deltagit i Förändraprogrammet.

Abstrakt: Antalet ensamkommande barn som anländer till Sverige har ökat kraftigt de senaste åren. Detta gör att man vid mottagandet av dessa barn måste se till att deras behov efterlevs, även på lång sikt. Det ställs i synnerhet krav på de boenden där de flesta av barnen hamnar efter att de får permanent uppehållstillstånd. I denna studie efterfrågas hur personalen arbetar på dessa boenden, och vilka metoder som används. I studien har gruppintervjuer samt enkäter använts.

The purpose of this study was to highlight LGBT asylum-seekers experiences of expressing their sexual identity or gender identity in the country of origin and in the asylum process in Sweden. By interviewing people who got permanent residence in Sweden because of gender or sexual orientation in Utlänningslagen (2005:716) we have been able to explore their own experiences from expressing themselves. This study analyse these experiences from a social psychological perspective, from this analysis we aimed to obtain a deeper understanding of how the experiences from the country of origin affects on the experiences in the asylum process. This study shows that LGBT asylum-seekers often is facing negative reactions from the environment in the country of origin, these reactions can limit their possibilities to express their sexual identity or gender identity in the asylum process in Sweden. The negative reactions they experience in the country of origin have contributed to that many LGBT people internalize feelings of fear to express themselves, feelings that often stays when they come to Sweden to seek asylum.

This paper aims to describe and discuss psychotherapy in rhetorical terms; in particular how psychotherapists can use their ethos, or person, as a means for convincing the patient, and subsequently discuss how these insights in turn can be useful for other rhetors.Classical rhetoric is commonly associated with one speaker exercising influence on an audience of many, but modern rhetoric is broader, and includes all situations where someone is attempting, by speech or in writing, to affect anyone, including the rhetor himself. With this broader definition, psychotherapy may also be considered a form of rhetoric. Psychotherapy does, however, highlight the aspect of power distribution, in that it is clear that it is up to the patient to determine whether the rhetoric will achieve its purpose or not, that is, if he will be influenced by it. In psychotherapy, it is also important to differentiate between persuading and convincing: for a permanent change to occur in the patient?s thoughts and actions, the deeper, "internal" form of conviction is necessary for change to take place.When attempting to convince an audience, it is important for the speaker to establish a credible ethos, that is, present a trustworthy persona.

Många missbrukare blir nyktra efter att ha varit på behandling och/eller självhjälpsrörelsemöten, såsom AA, där de arbetar utifrån riktlinjerna De Tolv Stegen. Kunskapen och förståelsen av programmet kan ses som ett livslångt lärande. Tidigare forskning har inte fokuserat på detta samband mellan lärande och nykterhet. Kvalitativa intervjuer har gjorts där fem nyktra beroende har berättat sin livshistoria och väg till en lång nykterhet. Resultaten överensstämmer med tidigare forskning som visar att vissa insikter är fundamentala för nykterhet, såsom villighet, kapitulation och öppenhet för förändring.

 We have chosen to write our thesis within a transport company. The work was carried out at DHL activities in Uppsala. DHL is one of the leading transport companies worldwide. Our interest lies in more efficient and advanced transportation and terminals, as globalization and new trends require effective solutions.The aim of our work is to explain the need for information technology applications in road haulage and associated terminal operations. Furthermore, we analyses terminal and applied information technology.

Konkurrensen på marknaden blir tuffare och tuffare för många företag och för att vara konkurrenskraftig när det gäller kunskap, forskning och utveckling gäller det att man har en bra läromiljö för medarbetarna så att man kan höja deras kompetens och utnyttja deras fulla potential.En av åtgärderna som Organisationen har gjort, var att byta arbetssätt på utvecklingsavdelningarna. Det nya arbetssättet - Scrum - vill de ha utvärderad för att kunna veta om det har gett önskad effekt och om det skulle gå att förbättra processen.Syftet med denna studien var att ta reda på hur medarbetarna har upplevt implementeringen av ett nytt arbetssätt, scrum, och hur detta har påverkat deras förutsättningar att lära.Jag har använt ett miljöpedagogiskt perspektiv och i huvudsak kvalitativ metod. Vissa inslag av kvantitativ empiri finns också för att komplettera.Resultatet av studien visade sig vara tudelat. Dels upplever medarbetarna att implementeringen av scrum har gått bra och att det fungerar tillfredställande. Å andra sidan visar det sig att man inte alltid lever som man lär och att inte hela scrumprocessen används i sin helhet eller som det är tänkt.

Syftet har varit att studera chefers uppfattningar om en omorganisation i ett företag i transportbranschen. Den fråga jag ställt mig är vilken betydelse gemensamma mål och visioner, delaktighet och tid för utvecklingsarbete, ett stödjande förändringsledarskap samt en kultur som främjar lärande har haft i en omorganisation som genomförts i Företaget X. Den metod som använts har varit kvalitativa intervjuer som tagit utgångspunkt i hermeneutiken där framför allt innebörder och intentioner studerats. Respondenterna har bestått av åtta chefer vid Företaget X. Det framkommer att omorganisationen inte lyckats till fullo utifrån de mål som sattes upp.

Kompetensutveckling under arbetsplatsförlagd utbildning inom sluten somatisk vård för omvårdnadsstuderande på vuxenutbildning.Sammanfattning: Arbetsplatsförlagd utbildning (APU) har en central plats på omvårdnadsutbildning för vuxenstuderande. Det är därför av vikt att APU:n gynnar de studerandes möjligheter till kompetensutveckling. Vårt syfte är att undersöka hur vuxenstuderande inom omvårdnadsutbildning upplever förutsättningar för sin kompetensutveckling under APU inom sluten somatisk vård. För att kunna besvara syftet har en abduktiv kvalitativ metod utifrån det sociokulturella perspektivet använts och semistrukturerade intervjuer genomförts. Det empiriska materialet bygger på intervjuer före och efter APU:n med åtta omvårdnadsstuderande.

The aim of this essay is to examine the background to the ongoing conflict between Spain and Basque. The conflicting parts and the opportunities of an agreement regarding a permanent cease-fire will also be examined. I chose to write about this conflict due to the fact that it has been going on for a long time, and is still going on.In order to be able to conduct the survey of this essay I have studied a wide range of books, reports from different institutions, and articles. I have strived for objectivity and to retail a fair description of the situation.To get a better understanding of the conflict the essay starts with history of conflict which has its beginning in the fifteenth century. Further on the essay is going to examine the conflicting parts that exist nowadays, and also the acting of different Basque political groups and the acting of the Spanish government.
