This report will detail the participator view of partnering in Kvarteret Frodeparken. Kvarteret Frodeparken is a new construction project being jointly delivered by Skanska Sverige AB and Uppsalahem AB. The report will focus on the comparison between the participators view of partnering with an emphasis on common partnering goals. The report will also focus on the economical benefits, the time benefits and the social environment benefits you can find in partnering.The principals of partnering are; participants together make the common goals for the projects, make ice breaking activities to improve stakeholder engagement and working with an open economy to find the profitable choice for the project. With a combination of the three principals the team together decide the best solution for the project.

Many organizations today work in projects, a method of organizing work to provide a clearer focus on goals and more control of every aspect of the assignment. A project is, simply put, a plan to achieve a specific result. In turn, project management means to use various tools and methods to facilitate and streamline the effort towards achieving the goal with the project.Risk management is the activity that refers to finding, identifying and quantify different types of risks and take appropriate action towards reducing or eliminating these risks to the extent possible. With increased use of projects as a method of working the demands for managing risks better become stronger. The question that this thesis tried to answer was: ?What kind of risks does the IT industry think are linked to their projects and in what way does these companies manage these risks??Among the project leaders interviewed, the authors could see a great variation in lines of thought and values regarding the importance of risk management and how risk management should be handled.

Foreign aid is a very debated and controversial topic. The most recent studies have focused more on GDP growth and foreign aid correlation, however not much of the debate has focused on what kind of foreign aid should be given. The most common foreign aid is budget support, often a bilateral funds transfer between two countries. This kind of foreign aid can be both conditional and unconditional from the donors? perspective.

This paper is a case study of a local labour market project. The aim of the study is to investigate the staff?s way of working with unemployed people, receiving social assistance, in order to reduce the payment of social assistance in four adjacent city districts of Stockholm. Other objectives of the study are to investigate which criteria the staff uses when selecting participants for the project, in which way the participants? background affects the measures taken by the staff and how the staff experiences working as part of a project.

ABSTRACTThis paper aims to shed light to what extent a financier have learnt about sustainableorganizational change, through development projects taking part in the Swedish knowledgeFoundations program, ICT in Teacher?s training. Some questions asked were: Has theSwedish Knowledge Foundation learnt by researchers? and self evaluation?s ?stirring up? ofongoing projects? What type of learning process has been going on? Has new, mutual,knowledge been constructed or has already existing knowledge been transferred?The study consists of one participating observation and three interviews. They showhow the financed projects have been ?stirred up? so that a developmental learning process hasstarted within their organization.

This 3d navigation application is a part of a project that helps the user to learn and find the right position on a map with many exercises, the user has a compass nearby that he/she can use to find the position that requires to get the right answer on that particular exercise. Macromedia's Director is used for the creating of the program, where Lingo has a importent part as the script language for the scenes in Director. A 3D scene is build up with codes in Lingo, a few 3d models and serveral overlays are created and displayed on the screen. Different kind of textures from pict files are is representing the overlays and put on the 3D models. That give the user a more pleasant experience when going through the exercises that helpes the user when he/she is going to navigate on a boat at sea..

Studiens syfte är att undersöka elevers och lärares uppfattning om elevers utvecklingsmöjligheter på de yrkesförberedande programmen, och om svensklärarna på dessa program anser att deras arbetssätt främjar och utmanar eleverna till högre betyg i svenskämnet. Vi har valt att göra en kvalitativ undersökning där vi använder oss av två olika datainsamlingsmetoder, enkäter och intervjuer. Vårt material består av 86 elevenkäter, fyra lärarenkäter, sex elevintervjuer och fyra lärarintervjuer. Våra respondenter kommer från två gymnasieskolor i södra Sverige. Resultatet visar att eleverna på de skolor där undersökningen gjorts överlag har möjlighet och kapacitet att höja sina betyg.

Efter den genomförda enkätundersökningen kan det konstateras att frequent flyer program inverkar på och förstärker medlemmarnas mobilitet. En ökad mobilitet leder även till ökade påfrestningar på miljön. Klimatkompensation, med donation av frequent flyer poäng, skulle kunna vara ett sätt för att minska på den förstärkta mobiliteten men viljan hos medlemmarna att spendera sina poäng på klimatkompenserande åtgärder är låg. Frequent flyer programmen bör dessutom omstruktureras så att de i högre utsträckning fokuserar på kringtjänster som inte bidrar till att förstärka medlemmarnas mobilitet..

In the last decades the continuous work for more sustainable manufacturing has become a large part of the manufacturing companies? operations. It is also well known that the factory planning shapes the manufacturing process to a great extent. Consequently it is logical to assume that the manufacturing companies? factory planning process plays a major role in the work for increased sustainability.

The aim of this Master?s thesis was to find out more about the delimiting quality- and shelf-life parameters over time for liquid oat-based products. According to that, to present applicable subjective and objective shelf-life test approaches at accelerated conditions. The study aimed to gain a deeper knowledge concerning the general and accepted way of performing accelerated storage tests. This study focused especially on products, which suffer from quality failure caused by oxidation, such as liquid oat-based products.

This project was conducted on behalf of the organization SABO (Swedish Association of Public Housing Companies). The aim of this project was to investigate which relevant environmental aspects and indicators there are for housing companies to present in their sustainability report. The project consists of three main goals: to decide if there is a need for common guidelines when conducting a sustainability report, determine appropriate environmental indicators and to create a simple model of how the companies can present them. This was done by a literature study, analysis of 13 sustainability reports and interviews with seven housing companies. The result of the project suggests that there is a need for common guidelines to, among other things, make it easier to make a comparison with other companies.

I got interested in this subject when I came in contact with Västtrafiks new paymentsystem myself during my visits in Gothenburg. I suspected problems with the informationmaterial regarding it and others seemed to share my opinion that the payment system wasdiffcult to understand. When I contacted Västtrafik and asked them about the paymentsystem they confirmed that some understanding diffculties had occurred. With thatconfirmation I decided to make it my project to look in to the matter.Some methods were used to identify the problems. The methods could again confirm thatthere were some problems with the payment system and that the information material wasa vital reason.

SammanfattningSyftet med det här examensarbetet är att genom en läromedelsanalys jämföra betygsmålen för EN 1201 (Engelska A) med sex utvalda läromedel, varav tre läromedel för yrkesförberedande program samt tre för studieförberedande program, för att granska om de satta målen uppnås. Det har även undersökts huruvida läromedel avsedda för studieförberedande respektive yrkesförberedande program innehåller skillnader med avseende på hur de behandlar betygsmålen.Resultatet visar att inget läromedel når upp till alla mål och det är främst två mål som fattas i läromedlen: (1) att jämföra kulturtraditioner/levnadssätt/samhällsförhållande samt (2) elevers reflekterande över lärandet. Även texter och övningar utifrån elevers studieinriktning saknas ofta. Grammatik får stor plats i läromedlen fast att det inte finns med som ett specifikt mål.Slutsatsen är att lärare inte enbart kan stödja sin undervisning på läromedlen utan det krävs en professionell tolkning av målen och en lokal arbetsplan för läraren att stödja sin undervisning på. Lärare bör komplettera med extra material för att täcka in samtliga betygsmål i sitt undervisningsmaterial.Nyckelord: betygsmål, EN 1201, läromedel, yrkesförberedande ? och studieförberedande program, gymnasiet.

Syftet med denna uppsats är att beskriva vad som bidragit till fyra elevers övergång från ett individuellt program på gymnasiet till ett nationellt. Detta har gjorts genom en kvalitativ metod där fyra elever i åldern 16-19 år har intervjuats. Vårt intresse fångades under en praktikperiod på en skola där många av eleverna på IV läste upp betygen och sökte in på ett nationellt program. Detta hör enligt Skolverket inte till vanligheterna. Det gemensamma för de intervjuade eleverna är att en inre motivation och ett mål spelar en viktig roll för att komma vidare med sina studier..

In the digital era, new services have entered the public libraries, like seeking information on the Internet, in databases, newspapers online etc. But many citizens do not know that these services exist. The libraries have a democratic responsibility to inform about them. In the county of Östergötland a project started in 2001 where libraries in five small municipalities built websites in which they present all their electronic services available. One of the aims was with the help of different kinds of marketing to reach special groups of people, like adult students, small companies and politicians.
