The essay is about the concept of text in a wider perspective, what can be included in that, how it can be used and above all, why one might want to use it. The essay will also include what the term popular culture implies, and school?s attitude towards it, since some of the medias that are a part of the text in a wider perspective, many times fits the description ?popular culture?. Most of the earlier research show that the positive aspects of the use of text in a wider perspective as the same time as it attacks school because school is opposing the popular culture.       The essay consists of two parts and it begins with a theoretical part where I present existing research about the concept of text in a wider perspective and the research about popular culture.

This thesis is an attempt to study whether if problem-oriented teaching implies a moreadvanced use of school libraries than other teaching methods.Teachers have been interviewed about what kind of information they and their pupils need,and where they find their information. Another question is whether the problem-orientedteaching method makes it easier for the pupils to find information in school libraries thanother teaching methods do.The result of the study is that a problem-oriented teaching method creates opportunitiesfor the school library to become an important place for information retrieval. This teachingmethod is a major, but not the only determinal factor. Other contributing factors could beteamwork between teachers and school librarians and the existence of learning aids..

Tidigare forskning om stress inom rättsväsendet och hos domare är i huvudsak amerikansk och fokuserar på hot och våld. Men även andra faktorer har visat sig orsaka stress hos domare. Sex svenska domare intervjuades om den påfrestning de upplevde i arbetet för att ta reda på hur det ser ut inom det svenska rättssystemet. En halvstrukturerad intervjuguide utarbetades, och ett exempel på en fråga är: ?Beskriv två situationer då du har känt dig verkligt stressad i arbetet?.

SammanfattningDen negativa stressen i sjuksköterskornas arbetsmiljö kan leda till sjukdom, t.ex. psykisk ohälsa. Sjuksköterskorna ska ta hand om sin egen hälsa för att kunna ge en god omvårdnad av patienterna. I omvårdnadsarbetet ingår det att arbeta patientsäkert och det är sjuksköterskan enligt lag skyldig att göra. Syftet med studien var att beskriva faktorer som kan bidra till negativ stress i sjuksköterskans omvårdnadsarbete.

In a preparatory class are newly arrived students who have no or very little knowledge of the Swedish language. Some of the newly arrived pupils may have arrived in Sweden very recently and some of them have no or very limited understanding and experience of how the school system works in their country of origin. The purpose of this study is to find out how education in a selected preparatory class works seen from two SVA-teachers and students perspective. Questions related to my purpose reads as follows:In which way can two of the SVA-teachers respond in a selected preparatory class to their group of newly arrived students?What methods can be used by the two SVA-teachers in a selected preparatory class to their group of newly arrived students' language learning?How does the newly arrived student in a selected preparatory class experience their education and friendship?The study was conducted through a qualitative approach in a selected preparatory class in a multicultural school in a suburb in southern Stockholm. Through observations on six separate occasions as well as interviews with two of the SVA- teachers in the selected preparatory class, and with three of the newly arrived pupils during a period of three weeks.

Motivation är en viktig komponent för att en person ska kunna genomföra en uppgift. Men hur personen handskas med uppgiften beror på vilken typ av motivation denne drivs av och i vilken grad. Tidigare forskning har visat att exempelvis stress har en negativ påverkan på motivation. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur kön, ålder, antal arbetade år och stress är relaterad till inre och yttre motivation hos poliser i yttre tjänst. Deltagarna bestod av 142 personer, varav 36 stycken var kvinnor.

Syftet med denna studie var att beskriva kvinnliga arbetsterapeuters erfarenheter av arbetsrelaterad stress samt hur de hanterar detta. Sju kvinnliga arbetsterapeuter mellan 31-43 år som varit verksamma som arbetsterapeuter minst sex månader och var anställda inom landsting eller kommun intervjuades med ostrukturerade intervjuer. Intervjun inleddes med en övergripande frågeställning där intervjupersonerna ombads att berätta om en arbetsdag där de upplevt stress i arbetet. Som analysmetod användes kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Analysen resulterade i tre kategorier som kan kopplas till arbetsrelaterad stress: ?Att arbetsuppgifter ändras?, ?Att arbetstiden inte räcker till? och ?Att arbetet inte respekteras?.

Trots de diskussioner angående religionens roll som förts mellan ateister och teister på senare år verkar det finnas få statistiska undersökningar på religionens roll som sänkare av stress och höjare av psykologiskt välbefinnande. Denna uppsats bidrar till den forskning på området som finns. Undersökningen utfördes genom att ett antal hypoteser med grund i en amerikansk undersökning från 2001 samt Maslows behovsteorier ställdes upp och testades genom Pearsons produktmomentkorrelationskoefficient för att hitta samband mellan religiöst deltagande, stress och psykologiskt välbefinnande. Resultaten blev följande: Religion verkar huvudsakligen sänka stress och höja psykologiskt välbefinnande genom att besvara djupa existentiella frågor, medan exempelvis socialt stöd och hälsosamt leverne verkar vara sekundärt. Resultaten från uppsatsen har även visst stöd från den amerikanska undersökningen.

My interest in examining what happens when you as a teenager are exposed to five or six times the amount of time as ordinary classes to music education derrives from my own experience as a music teacher at a school which has those kind of special music classes. During my career as a music teacher in grades 4 ? 9 in Swedish compulsory school I have taught music classes as well as ordinary classes for 18 years. During this time I have often wondered what this exposure means in retrospect. Is it the conquering and mastering of music skills that students remember when they?ve grown up to young adults, or is it something else?The aim of this study is to find out what it means for teenagers to have music as a school subject every day of their years in Swedish high school.

Denna uppsats handlar om arbetsrelaterad stress samt hälsofrämjande åtgärder som kan vidtas för att motverka denna. Syftet med vår uppsats var att undersöka om faktorer inom arbetsorganisationen ger upphov till stress hos medarbetarna. Vi genomförde en enkätundersökning där medarbetare inom både offentlig och privat sektor medverkade. Vi fann att de stressorer som medarbetarna upplever orsakar stress på arbetsplatsen är bland annat hög arbetsbelastning, höga krav i kombination med låg kontroll, brist på stöd och uppmuntran från arbetskamrater samt brist på information. Vi fann även att det finns en del skillnader mellan offentlig och privat sektor.

AbstractWith the murder of Fadime in 2002 honor killings and honour related oppression became a subject of wide public debate. The question was raised whether the Swedish social services had the knowledge and the resources necessary to face the issue with honor related oppression.This study is about the views on honor related oppression among oppressed women and professional social workers and aims to explore the relationship between social worker and client in an honor related context. Does the risk of culture clashes pose a problem in dealing with the Swedish authorities and do Swedish social workers have the necessary tools to help the, often young, oppressed women that seek their aid? This is a qualitative study based on five individual interviews: Two former victims of honour related oppression, two professional social workers and one relative of a young girl who was the victim of an honor killing.Observations:The social workers found that they had adequate resources at hand but that awareness among employees in the social services needed to be improved.The clients felt that the help they?ve received from the social services was helpful but that more information to the public about available resources was necessary along with a better understanding of the differences between their own culture and that of the Swedish society. The clients expressed that the realization that they were being oppressed didn?t come overnight.
