The number of locals in Stockholm who chooses the bike in front of public transport has increased significantly in recent years. The product purchaser of this project, Joakim Victorin at Sigma AB, has a keen interest in cycling, which resulted in a fairly obvious topic of this project; through a web application Sigma AB wanted to make it possible to handle results from professional as well as amateur competitions in cycling.The purpose of this web application is to simplify reporting and handling of competition for both small and bigger bicycle races. By providing the users of the system a platform independent client, any available device may be used.This thesis has followed the development principles which prevail on the ASP .NET MVC 3 concept. When developing the system the Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 development environment was used. The framework and the pattern of ASP .NET MVC 3 is a prominent part of today?s web development.

The purpose of this essay has been to investigate the research and national initiatives regarding film and Cineliteracy in the Swedish curriculum.The results show that, after all research, national initiatives and the continual clarification from the Swedish National Agency for Education concerning film's place in the Swedish subject, the vision of students cineliteracy not at all obtain an obvious place in the curriculum.The research points out the main causes behind this result to be teachers' lack of expertise and the fact that the formal education for future teachers in the subject still upholds traditional views on the subject of Swedish.The initiative presented in this essay also show lack of continuity, lack of adequate professional development opportunities for teachers and lack of practical guidance manuals to help teachers to develop and educate their pupils in line with current research and visions. .

Syftet med denna uppsats var att undersöka påståendet att ?basisten ska driva? i ett rock-/bluessammanhang, ett påstående de flesta basister inom genren nog har hört någon gång. I undersökningen spelade jag in en blues-shuffle i fem olika versioner med inspelningsprogrammet Cubase. I de olika versionerna varierades timing och betoningar i basen: i övrigt var de identiska. Inspelningarna användes i ett lyssningstest med en jury på sex personer, två professionella basister, två professionella musiker och två ickeprofessionella musiker.

Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur organisationer gör för att nyanställda ska kunna skapa sin yrkesidentitet. Vi har i denna studie valt att betrakta yrkesidentitet som en social identitet som skapas och upprätthålls i en specifik yrkespraktik. Vi har valt att utgå från det sociokulturella perspektivet där mänskligt handlande och tänkande ses som situerat i sociala kontexter. Lärande betraktas utifrån detta perspektiv som en pågående social, meningsskapande och aktiv process i vilken kunskap skapas med andra människor. Den empiriska datainsamlingen grundas på semistrukturerade intervjuer där vi intervjuat sju HR-ansvariga inom olika organisationer.  Materialet är transkriberat och analyserat med hjälp av kodning och tematisering.

Detta är en undersökning med syftet att ta reda på vad en groupie är, vad det är som driver unga kvinnor att bli groupies samt hur det har sett ut från 1960-talet fram till idag. Detta då groupies fått dåligt rykte som några som enbart är ute efter att ha sex med rockstjärnor.Jag har utifrån intervjuer och litteraturstudier av biografier samlat in empiri från Lexa Vonn, Nikki McWatters och Pamela des Barres till undersökningen. Detta material har jag sen kopplat ihop med teorier om fans och fanskap för att komma fram till en slutsats. Resultatet visar att groupies drivs av kärlek till musiken och rockkulturen samt att de känner en samhörighet med musikerna de beundrar. Deras egen definition av vad en groupie är stämmer väldigt bra överrens med Sandvoss definition av fans.

Violence against women is an extensive social problem that concerns us all. The women who seek health- and medical services when they have been exposed to violence and abuse have the right to expect being well taken care of and treated by competent and understanding personnel. A kind reception can make the patient feel comfortable enough to talk about their situation. The aim of this literature review was to determine how you as a nurse should treat a woman who has been exposed to battery, to be able to offer a professional and individual care. The frame of reference is Gustafsson´s SAUK-model since the acknowledged care aim to maintain and strengthen the human´s self-judgement and self-determination.

Vår studie syftar till att genom empiriska studier ta reda på sex enskilda lärares uppfattningar om den första tiden som yrkesverksam. Vi vill identifiera de faktorer som under perioden upplevs som de största utmaningarna. Det finns ett samhälleligt intresse i den här frågan eftersom många lärare under sin första tid väljer att lämna yrket. Vi gjorde kvalitativa intervjuer med sex olika lärare som arbetat från ett till åtta år. Parallellt med intervjuerna genomförde vi litteraturstudier för att sätta oss in i ämnet och se vad tidigare forskning kommit fram till.

Syftet med denna undersökning är att utröna vuxna elevers hälsosituation och hur den inverkar på deras motivation i skolan och på skolarbetet. Studien syftar även till att ta reda på vilken motivation som driver dem; är det inre, yttre eller båda typerna av motivation. Detta med utgångspunkt utifrån Maslows och andra teoretikers påståenden om motivation som presenteras i vår litteraturgenomgång. För att undersöka detta har vi gjort en studie i form av kvalitativa intervjuer, där vi låtit sju elever svara på frågor om hälsa, motivation och hur deras upplevda hälsosituation påverkar skolarbetet. Studien innehåller respondenternas berättelser om sin egen hälsa och deras intresse och motivation till utbildningen. Resultatet diskuteras bla utifrån Antonovsky´s teori om Kasam och utifrån Katie Erikssons hälsobegrepp.

Our greatest interest within crop farming is to grow sugarbeets, that?s why we want to write about something new in this sector. We heard that a new concept had come to Sweden so we wanted to find out everything about this machine. This new technique was a self-propelled cleaning loader for sugarbeets. This machine is supposed to replace a loader and a cleaning machine when the sugarbeets is going to be loaded, cleaned and delivered to the sugerbeet factory. The cleaning loader picks up the sugarbeets with rollers from the pile, which is placed close to the road.

Sweden currently has no legislated regulation of lobbying, but the professional lobbyist can voluntarily subscribe to, among others, the professional code of standars created by the trade association of Public Relations, Precis. There is an ongoing discussion in Sweden to regulate lobbying, both in mass media and in politics. This study examines this debate and focus on which arguments there are for and against lobbying regulation in Sweden. It also attempts to identify the differences, if there are any, between left and rights parties with regards to their views on regulation of lobbying.Tha main method used was document analysis of parliamentary bills which have been raised concerning a lobbying regulation in Sweden. In the theory section, I include four different types of requirements placed on democratic lobbying (se for example Jaatinen 1998, Kitchen 1999, Larsson 2005, Möller 2009 and Naurin 2001).

This essay elucidates upper secondary students? literacy practices, (literacy events, literacy competencies and literacy culture) during a typical day, with focus on the daily literacy practices. A literacy ethnographic study conducted in the environment which participants naturally are, at home, at school and in leisure.

The purpose of this study is to identify and make attitudes among social workers towards homosexual and bisexual people visible, examine how these attitudes relate to their actions in their professional role and how these attitudes and actions can be understood by theories of heteronormativity and power. The study is a cross-sectional quantitative survey in the form of a questionnaire completed by social workers. The result shows that there are two groups among the social workers. One larger group that reproduces a norm of acceptance toward homosexual and bisexual people and one smaller that reproduces a heterosexual norm. This reproduction of heteronormativity increases the risk for homosexual and bisexual people to be made invisible and treated more negatively in contact with social workers, which in turn can lead to worse health among the clients..

The purpose of this study was to illustrate how professionals, who work with psychosocialproblems among children, look at the impact of social factors on behavior that causes ADHDdiagnosis and at the relationship between social factors and the increased diagnosis that hasoccurred in recent years. To answer our purpose, we chose a qualitative approach byinterviewing six professionals who had different professional affiliations. We analyzed theresults using systems theory and attachment theory.
