Background and aim: Media development and digitalization has expanded the PR industry's working area. More participants are on the media market and it is becoming more and more difficult to define what PR really is and what the PR agencies/departments really do. Is PR marketing, information, event marketing or maybe propaganda? We believe that the complexity to define the term PR can lead to a loss of critical approach to the business, especially among young people. Has the PR industry managed to eliminate their negative image among students in upper secondary school and what do they associate with PR today? The aim of this essay is to examine what a selection of students associate with the term PR and if they are critical to the PR industry or not.Method/Material: The method is a quantitative survey.

The main purpose of this C-essay is to answer the question: What have been the consequences and effects of the merit point system on language studies and the parties concerned (teachers, students and principals) during the school year of 2010/11?The merit point system is the result of a political decision and was implicated for the first time in the Swedish upper secondary school during the school year 2010/2011. Being a completely new phenomenon it is of great interest and importance to study its effects.The study in this essay also aims to verify, falsify or nullify two hypotheses very often referred to in the political discussions regarding the merit point system:The merit point system will replace affection and interest as main reasons for language studies in upper secondary school and cause a rectification amongst the students choices of additional courses.The merit point system will have a segregating effect upon society and make it harder for people to rise in society through education in the future.A verification of these hypotheses would imply the appearance of an increased rectification amongst students as well as an orientation towards an in the future more segregated society.The empiric material has been collected and examined with qualitative as well as quantitative methods (questionnaires and interviews) and belongs epistemologically to the phenomenological and hermeneutical traditions..

In this study I try to answer the question what to consider when teaching about identity andreligious identity in Religious Studies at Upper Secondary Schools in Sweden. This inquiry isbased on the fact that the latest Program manuals for upper secondary school, GY11, instructsthe teachers to talk about identity and religion, while in the Curriculum for upper secondaryscool, Lpf 94, as well as the latest curriculum, SKOLFS 2011, the idea of identity seemslinked with ethnicity.With this in mind I want to clarify what might be meant with the concept of identity. Byreferring to several different identity theories I propose to illustrate the complexity of theconcept. I study gender, queer and postcolonial theory as well as different aspects of classstructure and commodification of identity, all through the perspective of intersectionality.Intersectionality is not a theory as such but a method of studying various perspectives of anissue. It is an analytical praxis of using several angles of investigation and explanationtogether, all phrased with the background of the question of power.

Bakgrund: Stretching tros kunna förlänga muskelfascia, senor, ligament och öka en muskels tolerans för sträckning, så att muskeln kan slappna av längre in i rörelsen. Många teorier finns om vilken effekt stretching kan tänkas ha. Ett av dessa omdiskuterade områden är om stretchingen kan minska risken att drabbas av skador inom idrotten, något som i hög grad berör den sjukgymnastiska professionen. Syfte: Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att ta reda på vilken evidens som föreligger för att stretching kan förebygga skador hos idrottsaktiva, samt diskutera vilket kliniskt värde detta kan tänkas ha för sjukgymnastyrket. Metod: Rapporten var en systematisk litteratursammanställning.

Bakgrund: Trycksår uppstår när hudens syre- och näringstillförsel är otillräcklig på grund avlokalt nedsatt blodcirkulation. Detta orsakar smärta och lidande för den drabbade. Tidigareforskning visar att trycksårsprevalensen är fortsatt hög idag trots medvetenhet om riskfaktorer som bidrar till utvecklandet av trycksår. Samt att sjuksköterskor helst förlitar sig på sina tidigare kunskaper och erfarenheter vad gäller bedömning och beslut kring trycksår. Syfte: Syftet med litteraturstudien var att beskriva sjuksköterskans omvårdnadsåtgärder för attförebygga och behandla trycksår.

The purpose of this paper has been to study the relationships and attitudes of a few teachers and librarians as to their co-operation in a combined public and upper secondary school library and to find out what circumstances there may be to exert an influence on their work. The paper has been based upon qualitative interviews with upper secondary school teachers and librarians as well as on studies of literature relating to our issue. We believe there may be different approaches to the learning process, as these are the relations and attitudes of two professions from different trades. That is why our point of departure has been Roger Säljö's theory about learning and, in our analysis, a few of Jean Donham van Deusen's ideas of joint planning and flexible timetabling. All respondents agreed that co-operation could be better, but the teachers were of the opinion that it must not interfere with their time.

Psykosocial ohälsa är en av de största orsakerna till sjukfrånvaro bland tjänstemän. Få studier syftar till att undersöka förebyggande aktiviteter för stress på organisationsnivå. Europeiska arbetsmiljöbyrån, EU-OSHA, erbjuder råd för att på företag förebygga stress. Syftet med detta examensarbete var att beskriva hur tjänstemän upplevde EU-OSHA:s råd för organisatoriska stressförebyggande insatser. Undersökningen sökte svar på om råden upplevdes genomförbara, om det fanns hinder som försvårade genomförandet och vilka förutsättningar som krävdes.

The reason why this study has been made is the fact that a substantial part of students in the upper secondary school changes their field of study, during or after their first year. The aim of this study is to find out the reasons behind such changes as well as finding out the affecting factors. The study has been made in two steps, first quantitatively by a poll study and the second step is qualitative by interviews. This research has been made in both private schools and municipal schools, with the ambition to search for differences between these two separate school forms. The study shows that no general differences can be found in a comparison between them.

In the school subject of the natural sciences it is imperative that the students are given opportunities to ?talk science?, since the dialogues that occur in the classroom have a significant importance for the students? abilities to engage in meaning-making in their learning process. Hence, the student and teacher interaction in the classroom and the feedback given there play a significant role in the students? learning process. The aim of this study is to contribute to the development of formative assessment tools that can mediate the students? meaning-making in natural sciences subjects in upper-secondary school.

Introduktion: För att tandvården skall kunna styras med systematiska prioriteringar tog Socialstyrelsen fram Nationella Riktlinjer ( NR ) för vuxentandvård som ett stöd. Dessa grundas på tidigare forskning och bygger på evidens.Syfte: Syftet var att undersöka i vilken utsträckning tandhygienister kände till och tillämpade socialstyrelsens Nationella Riktlinjer för vuxentandvård avseende preventions- och behandlingsåtgärder för karies och parodontal sjukdom samt periimplantit  före respektive efter en implementeringsintervention.Frågeställningar:Var har tandhygienisterna funnit information gällande NR?Vilka karies-, parodontit-, och periimplantitpreventiva åtgärder enligt NR anser tandhygienisterna är de bäst lämpade för patienter med dessa sjukdomar samt vilken/vilka skillnader föreligger i val av åtgärder efter jämfört med före implementeringen?Metod: Trettioåtta tandhygienister fick utbildning med stöd av förändringsagenter samt genomgick ett interventionsprogram avseende NR i fyra steg.Resultat: Före implementeringen rekommenderade 52,6 % av tandhygienisterna tandtråd i kombination med fluorpreparat vid tillståndet ?Initial kronkaries? jämfört med 0 % efter. Av deltagarna valde 57,9 % Rökstopp + annan åtgärd före för att efter reduceras ned till 31,6 % , värdena avsedde ?Kronisk parodontit?.Konklusion: Implementeringen av NR visade att tandhygienister efter intervention med utbildning och stöd av förändringsagenter använde mer evidensbaserad prevention vid karies, parodontit och periimplantit än tidigare.
