This paper concerns the treatment of people at execution places and it is focusing on Gotland and the execution place called Galgberget. The material in the paper comes from Galgberget and a gallow in Denmark called Slots Bjergby. Together with this the laws of Gotland during the medieval and later periods are discussed and also how the archaeological material (especially the buttons) found on the excavation site can help to understand the people buried on the gallow site. The result of the analysis shows that the laws and the material found on the excavation site often tells different things. The punishments are often softer then what the law says.

The aim is also to understand what specific problems will arise in the work of cataloguing music materials and how the problems are discussed in the literature. The study is focusing of church music material and the history of churchmusic is therefore given an exposition. The origin of musical notation, which took place within the church, is also discussed.

The fact that Sweden has changed from a homogeneous to a heterogeneous culture with multiculturalism as key word requires an intercultural approach in the community and school. The purpose of this study was to examine how teachers of maternal languages experience their teaching in school and what resources they have available from their employer and the municipality. What methods do the teachers in maternal languages use in their teaching at school and what resources do they have to their disposal? How do teachers in maternal languages use the perspective of intercultural education in their teaching and how do the teachers look on their future role in the Swedish school. To achieve this I have chosen the method to make depth interviews with 6 teachers of maternal languages and compare and relate the result to the theories about interculturality and the circle model, to official curricula and to existing literature in this subject.Teachers of maternal languages are very spread out, they work in several schools and sometimes even in different municipalities, during the same week.

When performing a QRA you have to consider a number of accident scenarios. How many scenarios you choose often determines the time and resources needed to perform the QRA. The report investigates the possibility that a QRA can be performed using only a few representative scenarios. Further it presents a discussion on how these scenarios should be constructed..

Vi har utgått ifrån det sociokulturella och  fenomenografiska  perspektivet i vår studie. Vår studie har behandlat vilket material som finns och används på respektive förskolor i arbetet med matematiken.  Vi har även undersökt på vilket sätt materialet används av lärarna och av barnen samt om det finns en  matematisk  miljö  på  förskolorna,  och  i  så  fall, hur  den  kommer  till uttryck.   Syftet   med  vår  studie   var  att   ta   reda   på   användningen   av matematikmaterialet  på  förskolor  som  arbetar  utifrån  Montessori  inriktad pedagogik och Reggio Emilia inspirerad pedagogik. Vi har även tagit reda på pedagogers tankar bakom matematikmaterial. Studien har inte som syfte att jämföra de olika pedagogikernas användning av material. Vårt empiriska insamlande  material  har  tagits  fram  via  intervjuer  och  observationer.

Syftet med vårt arbete är att undersöka hur lärare arbetar med laborativt material samt problemlösning i matematik och när de tar in detta i sin undervisning. Vi avser även undersökavad högpresterande och lågpresterande elever har för uppfattningar kring dessa områden i matematik, samt vad lärarna tror att dessa elevgrupper har för uppfattningar om laborativt material och problemlösning.För att få reda på dessa frågeställningar har vi använt oss av strukturerade intervjuer med 15 högpresterande och 15 lågpresterande elever samt kvalitativa intervjuer med fem lärare.Resultatet av denna undersökning visar att laborativt material är något som mestadels används som hjälpmedel till lågpresterande elever. Problemlösning anses stimulera högpresterande elevers intresse för matematik i större omfattning, än de lågpresterandes.Problemlösningsuppgifterna anpassas sällan till elevernas nivå och mestadels tas dessa uppgifter från elevernas matematikböcker. Laborativt material ses som accepterat att använda blandklasskamraterna enligt de intervjuade eleverna, de flesta anser även att det skulle vara eller är roligt att använda laborativt material..

Introduction: Public health is based on the determinants of health. They mutually influence each other. Structural factors and life conditions contribute to health inequality both within and between countries. Health inequality can be seen between different social groups, which can be the cause of differences in living conditions, health behavior and disease vulnerability. One of the consequences of this is segregation which means that certain groups live apart, where this distribution can be connected to economic resources and/or ethnicity.

Title: Locally Integrated Groups ? A special education alternative Author: Jennie Arvidsson Type of essay: Exam essay, second level (15 credits) Supervisor: Barbro Bruce, Examiner: Lisbeth Ohlsson Program: Special Education Program at Malmö Högskola, Sweden Date: 2012-01-12 Present study is an attempt to describe how staff perceive their working operations in seven locally integrated groups, for pupils in special educational needs. By submitting a questionnaire to all professions within the groups I have tried to find similarities and differences in their statements from both structured and unstructured questions. The study is an attempt to contribute knowledge about how these groups can be understood and developed, based on a special education perspective, systems theory and sense of coherence (KASAM).

The focus on this essay is derived from an international and national dialogue for sustainable development. The recommendation from international level has been to find solutions for governments to implement strategies for sustainable development between local and regional level. This initiative is to improve and stimulate the dialogue between the local inhabitants, officials, entrepreneurs and stakeholders in the communities together with the authorities on the regional level. The purpose is to share knowledge and find ways to learn about the natural systems and how to co-operate in the work of preserving the natural resources and developing different processes for a sustainable development. Many scientists? today stress the importance that ecosystem resilience is promoted by biodiversity conservation and that we need to find solutions for local ecosystem management practices.This essay aims to find theoretical approaches and perspectives that can be used in a wider framework to study co-operative processes between the local (agent) and regional (structure) level.

This study aims to examine the way of teaching swim lessons.

Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka ifall barn har inflytande över sin miljö och sitt material i verksamheten samt vilket perspektiv pedagogerna utgår från vid planering av miljön. Studien har utgått från följande frågeställningar: Anser barnen att de har inflytande över sin miljö och sitt material på förskolan, och i så fall hur tar detta sig uttryck? Vilket perspektiv ligger till grund för pedagogernas utformning av miljön i verksamheten? För att få svar på mina frågor har jag använt mig av en kvalitativ studie med semi-strukturerade intervjuer med intervjuguide, strukturerade intervjuer med intervjuformulär samt dokumentation i form av bilder. Slutresultatet visar att det finns en vilja och önskan hos barnen att bestämma tillsammans med pedagogerna, att ha inflytande över miljö och material. Den faktorn som främst påverkar barns inflytande är det pedagogiska förhållningssättet hos pedagogerna, deras intentioner kan både vara stödjande och begränsande för barns inflytande..
