På inbjudan av Blackebergs gymnasium har vi medverkat som deltagande lärare och forskare under ett projekt för integration. Detta projekt utgörs av mötet mellan en klass med elever av invandrarbakgrund och en klass med elever av företrädesvis svensk bakgrund. Rent praktiskt innebär detta att eleverna under en veckas tid har varit frikopplade från ordinarie schemabunden undervisning och istället deltagit i en serie evenemang med tema integration. Under denna vecka har vi handlett elever och efter bästa förmåga dokumenterat projektet. Vår metod har varit aktionforskning.

Konflikter är idag ett normalt inslag i våra liv både hemma, på arbetet och på fritiden och anledningarna kan vara många. Vårt förhållande till konflikter är ofta dubbelbottnat. Vi både skyggar för dem och vi dras till dem. Syftet med studien var att belysa konflikt och konfliktsituationer i relation till ledarskap i en kommunal organisation. • Vilken betydelse har ledarskapet i en organisation? • Vilka synsätt och tankegångar har ledare angående konflikt? • Hur hanterar ledarna olika konfliktsituationer? De viktigaste som framkom är att ledarna behöver en förstärkt självkänsla och fortlöpande kunskaper angående konflikter.

Swedish students' knowledge of mathematics has deteriorated in recent years. Teaching of mathematics is therefore starting point in an ongoing discussion among researchers, school leaders, politicians, teachers and others, who all thinks they know best about how teaching should be designed to the greatest extent possible to raise students' proficiency levels in the subject. Teachers' practices have long been the focus of discussions and views on these differ. The purpose of this paper is therefore to study students 'conceptions of mathematics and mathematics teaching, with teachers' methods and tools of focus, in relation to previous research on the subject. The method used was a survey of students in secondary school and a textual analysis of previous studies on the subject.As revealed by the survey was that the textbook has a big advantage in mathematics education in Sweden today.Many students are not accustomed to working in a different way and thereforedoes not know either what the alternative approach entails.

Due to the obvious fact that one can never be hundred percent sure of what's hiddenunder the ground surface, construction work is naturally hard to project.However, many of the work methods are executed in the same way on variousprojects. The department of construction work at JM AB region öst describes a lackof follow-ups and feedback between the calculators and production managers.In this thesis we have studied the communication between these groups and alsohow they share experiences and knowledge. In order to get the full pictureof the day-to-day operations we used three methods to gather information. Studyingliterature gave basic knowledge of theories about feedback, and thenecessity of working with giving feedback. In order to understand the process ofconstruction work we made several interviews, both structured and nstructured.

Jämförande reklam innebär att en produkt ställs mot en konkurrent eller dennes produkt för att jämföra olika egenskaper. Detta kan ske direkt, genom att en produkt jämförs med en tydligt utpekad konkurrents produkt, men också indirekt genom att marknadsföra sig som ?billigast på marknaden? eller liknande uttryck och på så sätt jämför sig med konkurrenterna utan att nämna någon vid namn. Andra former av jämförande reklam är prisjämförelser samt tester och undersökningar. Denna marknadsföringsform har inte alltid varit tillåten i Sverige och ansågs tidigare inte utgöra god marknadsföringssed.

This essay is about security and safety in the city. More precisely it is concerned about the role of the institutions that aims to raise the perceived security and safety and their understanding of these concepts. I study two of the municipality's project in this field in the city of Malmö. Documents concerning these projects are analysed with a discourse analysis inspired by Chantal Mouffe and Ernesto Laclau as well as Michel Foucault. The two projects consist of one discourse each; the surveillance discourse and the discourse about meetings.

Idag styr och planerar de flesta organisationer i någon form, det gäller både den privata sektorn som den offentliga sektorn. Det finns olika sätt och modeller man kan använda för att styra en verksamhet t.ex. genom balanserad styrkort. Styrning startas oftast från centrala direktiv som t ex en affärs/verksamhetsplan, budget, prognos, resultatmål, avkastnings mål etc. Styrningen kan baseras på mer eller mindre komplexa styrmodeller och hanteras rent praktiskt via någon form av systemstöd men ibland endast med hjälp av Word- och Exceldokument.

The theologian Sarah Coakley has developed a theological method, which she calls théologie totale.This essay examines the methodological criteria for this method. To understand how its anthropology, epistemology and theology are shaped, the criteria are analyzed within a theoretical framework, in which mainly David F. Ford's theological typology and Stephen Bevans models of contextual theology play parts. The material consists of Coakleys texts, essentially the first part of Coakley?s projected systematic theological work.

The connection between management control systems for controlling sustainability and a firm's motivation for engaging in sustainability is not completely understood (Arjaliès & Mundy, 2013). The aim of this thesis is to develop a more profound understanding for management control in achieving sustainable companies. To do this, we raise the question: How and to what extent do companies use management control systems to achieve sustainability compliance Simons's Levers of Control (1995) are applied to this question in order to get a consistent and thorough insight of management control systems. Hence, a case study of ABB:s work to achieve material compliance in accordance with EU-regulation was conducted. The findings of the case study reveal that ABB uses the regulations as explicit goals and implement them in sustainability procedures.
