The objective with this essay is to establish the benefits of inserting media as an obligatory topic in the upper secondary school. In order to succeed with this I will not only type this essay I will also produce a medial production in the form of a film.  I have interviewed two senior masters on Södertörns College where I have reviewed different questions that relate to the matter's weight in school values and the society. In the study I will also reflect over existing research within the area and to link these to the issue and those interviewed opinions. In the film I also present statistics within the communication technology's increase and an explanation how one obligatory topic becomes an obligatory topic..

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.

The aim of this study is to look at the way four teachers in, and five workbooks for, the course Svenska 1/A+B in upper-secondary schools include language varieties in their content. The research is based on qualitative and quantitative analyzes of the workbooks, where words and content are examined, and also interviews with the teachers who presents how they work with language varieties in their education. The results show that language varieties are accepted in school-education at the same time as they are, and have been, alienated in a way. The results also show that language varieties are less prioritized than other areas of education in the same subject..

Grooming innebär att en vuxen söker kontakt med ett barn, under 15 år, i syftet att få till stånd en sexuell kontakt med barnet. Detta är sedan 1 juli 2009 ett lagbrott. Det finns ytterst lite forskning i Sverige om grooming och ännu ingen utvärdering om hur svensk lagstiftning fungerar i praktiken. Vårt syfte med uppsatsen är att belysa nuvarande kunskapsläge i Sverige. Vi har valt att jämföra lagstiftningen i Sverige och Storbritannien, hur de båda länderna arbetar mot grooming och om rutinaktivitetsteorin samt teorin om rationella val kan förklara hur grooming kan ske. I vår studie har vi kommit fram till att Storbritannien har ett mer aktivt sätt att arbeta preventivt mot brottet än i Sverige.

Abstract - A business to change the world- An analysis of norms Textbooks for International Economics, in Upper-secondary Schools, Sweden 1994-2008 In this paper textbooks, for International Economics in Upper Secondary Schools in Sweden1994-2008, are analyzed with regard to norms related to taking moral responsibility for environment and society. A method for making discourse analysis, previously illustrated by Östman (2008), is used to deconstruct the knowledge content regarding norms about taking responsibility in relation to different social roles. The first question is: what different norms about taking responsibility can be found, in relation to different social roles? Different social roles that can be found in the studied material are: business-people, consumers, politicians/civil servants and citizens. Norms of taking responsibility in relation to the environment and society are studied in this paper in relation to these different roles. The second question is whether a discursive change in the material can be found. One case of discursive change can be found which is related to the role of a business.

Malnutrition är ett stort problem hos äldre patienter, och leder till ett antal följdsjukdomar, förlängda vårdtider samt en ökad dödlighet. Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att beskriva sjuksköterskans arbete med att förebygga malnutrition hos äldre patienter på sjukhus eller äldreboenden, samt att beskriva de olika tillvägagångssätt som finns för att identifiera riskpatienter. Metoden var litteraturstudier där tio kvantitativa artiklar granskats med avseende på vetenskaplig kvalitet. Resultatet visar att sjuksköterskors arbete med att förebygga malnutrition främst bör inriktas på två områden; omvårdnadsåtgärder och screening. Resultatet presenteras utifrån sex teman.

I den här uppsatsen undersöker jag musikelever på gymnasiets estetiska program i Västerås, och vilken effekt undervisningen har på deras musikpreferenser. Resultaten baseras på två enkäter, en till elever och en till lärare. Undersökningen visar att eleverna till största delen är positiva till den musik de möter i skolan, men bara en mindre del av dem lyssnar på den musiken privat..

This thesis investigates three different surface modifications, and the route to design and synthesize them. The thesis is therefore divided into three sub- projects. (i.) Design and synthesis of a peptide which secondary structure could be controlled by a negatively charged surface. (ii.) Design and synthesis of a cyclic peptide, that would self-organize prior to surface interaction, using the type I anti-freeze protein of a winter flounder as template. (iii.) The use of solid-phase synthesis to make the synthesis of SAM-molecules easier..

During the recent years the interest in entrepreneurial education has increased both in terms of research being made in the subject, but also in the extent of entrepreneurial courses in Swedish secondary schools, where as the concept Junior Achievement (JA) is particularly being used. A common goal of the entrepreneurial education is apart from teaching the students how to start and run a business, to develop the students? entrepreneurial skills and competences.

There is also the purpose of investigate what the characteristics are of this entrepreneurial pedagogy being used in the courses using the JA concept.

The purpose of this essay was to understand why the pupils of upper secondary school are unable to pass the Mathematics A level. As method, I chose interviews, since the personal and various experiences of the informants are very important for the validity of this essay.This study has shown that the students lack motivation and consider Matematics boring. They haven?t been able to fathom the connection between the subject and how it van be used in everyday life. If the pupils? are to pass their Mathematics A level, they need time, further recourses and teachers who are apt and attentive pedagogues.Additionally, the teachers need more knowledge when it comes to methodology and didactic styles..

Syftet med denna undersökning var att ta reda på vilken betydelse stöd och uppmuntran upplevdes ha i arbetslivet för rådmän, om det fanns en skillnad beroende på kön, samt vilka faktorer som upplevdes vara viktiga för hälsan och arbetsklimatet. Sex semistrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes med tre kvinnliga och tre manliga rådmän. Resultatet, som överensstämde med tidigare forskning, visade att det sociala behovet av stöd från kollegor och närmaste chef upplevdes ha störst betydelse för både kvinnor och män. Positivt för hälsa och arbetsklimat upplevde både kvinnor och män var att trivas på arbetet, ha kollegialt stöd med ett öppet arbetsklimat samt möjlighet till flexibilitet. Slutsatsen blir att socialt stöd och kollegor är viktigt för att individer ska må bra i arbetslivet.  .

Syftet med denna uppsats var att undersöka hur kön görs i sex stycken vägledningssamtal på gymnasiet. Med stöd av några utvalda könsteoretikers forskning analyseras samtalen som utförts av tre stycken olika studie- och yrkesvägledare på tre stycken olika gymnasieskolor. Varje studie- och yrkesvägledare samtalade med en tjej och en kille i årskurs tre och deltagarna valde själva ut vilka elever som spelades in på band. Resultatet pekar på att studie- och yrkesvägledarens förhållningssätt delvis skiljer sig åt beroende på elevens kön. Genom att undersöka samtalsinnehållet och jämföra detta med normativa föreställningar om kön så ges olika exempel på hur kön görs i samtalen.
