Eftersom vi båda har genomgått inriktningen matematik för tidigare år känns det naturligt att valet av examensarbete föll på ämnet matematik. Vi har var sitt barn som går i klass 3 men de är av olika kön detta har förstärkt vår motivation till detta arbete. Vi vill undersöka vad för sorts attityd de olika könen har till ämnet matematik i en klass tre i Piteå kommun. Med attityd menar vi "en Persons inställning till något" (Svenska Akademins Ordlista, 1998). Undersökningarna har utförts efter vår verksamhetsförlagda utbildning (VFU) våren 2005 men i den tidigare nämnda klassen.

In this paper we investigate whether power structures in organizations have an influence in the process that leads to burnout. We analyze if these power structures affect the individual?s health condition toward burnout in a way that leads to disability and subsequent absence from work. In the study, six Persons who all have been unable to work due to burnout have been studied through qualitative, semi-structured interviews. The material have been coded with three different themes; leadership and hierarchy, responsibility and delegation of responsibility and performance and loyalty.

During the study's first stage we noticed that the Swedish term ? utanförskap? was constructed for political purposes, the term?s ambiguity what was first raised our interest. Therefore the aims of this study was to examine how social workers at the social welfare office and the labor market related project Framtid Kronoberg  as well as politicians within the administration of Arbete & Välfärd (Work & Welfare) relates to utanförskap as a social phenomenon. The study?s second aim was to examine how the aforementioned Persons consider utanförskap to be counteracted among young adults.

During the last years social media have developed and become a place where all kind of people can meet and interact with each other without any kind of physical contact to one another. We belive that this development also has made it easier for political parties and organisations to spread their propaganda to the people that uses social media without them knew from whom the information is coming. With this in mind we decided to do a study about the social media Facebook and how the users of Facebook think they are being influenced by political propaganda from organisations and private Persons. In our study we decided that we wanted to know why our respondents are using Facebook, if they have payed attention to two political questions, one international question and one national question, that have been noticed recently and if they feel that they are being influenced of political propaganda when they are using Facebook. We have concluded that our respondents, depending on how old they are, do feel that they are being influenced by political propaganda when they are using Facebook. We have also noticed that the younger part of our respondents feel that they are using Facebook because their friends do it and that they have noticed the international political question more than the national political question. In the older category of respondents the reason of why they are using Facebook was to maintain a conection with their friends and they had noticed the national political question more than the international political question. .

Vi har i detta arbete valt att djupintervjua en erfaren lärare och ta del av dennes livsberättelse. Den lärarforskning som bedrivits har i många fall fokuserat endast på lärarens praktiska arbete. För att förstå undervisningen till fullo, är det av vikt att också veta någonting om personen bakom arbetet, detta med tanke på att en Persons erfarenheter sätter prägel på undervisningen. Vårt syfte med detta arbete har varit att genom livshistoriemetoden få förståelse för vilka avgörande händelser (så kallade critical incidents) som påverkat en lärare under dennes lärargärning. För att uppnå vårt syfte har vi använt oss av en kvalitativ ansats, där vi valt att observera och intervjua den berörda läraren.

Syftet med denna uppsats är att försöka ta reda på om en kristen gudstro kan utgöra en salutogen faktor vid svåra kriser enligt teorierna om logoterapin och KASAM. Samtal med några personer som har gått igenom traumatiska kriser och som tycktes använda sig av sin gudstro i krishanteringen, fick mig att börja reflektera över hur en Persons livsåskådning påverkar hans eller hennes sätt att handskas med kriser. Jag har använt mig av två metoder; litteraturstudier och intervjuer, för att kunna jämföra mitt empiriska intervjumaterial med teorier om logoterapin och KASAM. I resultatet framkom det att gudstro under vissa förutsättningar kan utgöra en salutogen och meningsskapande faktor vid större kriser. Dock måste gudstron vara flexibel, obetingad och trygg för att kunna bevaras och förbli funktionell som meningssystem efter en större kris.
