Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka om blivande förskollärare utbildas i konflikthantering, hur denna utbildning formuleras samt om genus problematiserats i relation till konflikthanteringsundervisningen. Detta genom att granska utbildningsplaner, kursplaner och kurslitteratur från fem universitet i Sverige som erbjuder en förskollärarutbildning. De frågeställningar studien hade som utgångspunkt var i vilken utsträckning konflikthantering förekommer i förskollärarutbildningen, hur innehållet i dessa kurser presenteras och om genusproblematiserats i relation till konflikthantering. Resultatet av studien visade att fyra av fem granskade universitet erbjöd en kurs i konflikthantering inom förskollärarutbildningen och presenterar konflikthantering som ett område inom den utbildningsvetenskapliga kärnan, vilken upptar 60 högskolepoäng (hp). Konflikthanteringen upptar enligt min granskning 7,5-10 hp av en förskollärares totala 210hp.

AbstractThe development of new economies from the industrial revolution to the information society of today has led to an increase in goods, services and information technology. It has also affected the way that organizations are formed and shown that organizations transform more and more into networks. This has left an impact on the concept of marketing and an increase in the handling of internal relations within companies. The marketing concept has developed from the 4P:s, price, place, product and promotion, to relations marketing as a new perspective.This study focuses on a description of relations marketing in medium - sized advertising agencies. The advertising business has a long history of close customer relations and advertising agencies strongly depend on new customers.

During the spring of 2014, I have investigated the visual culture of Lolita as practiced in Sweden and Japan. My focus has been on the performative aspect of Lolita. By looking and participating in this colorful subculture, I have met people who are living the Lolita lifestyle on a daily basis as well as former Lolita practitioners. My main concern has been how does one use Lolita.I?ve tried to investigate if it is possible to look at Lolita as being more than just a clothing style.

Camelids, especially alpacas, have increased in popularity during the last decade, with the result that they are more frequently encountered by field practicing veterinarians and pathologists. Knowledge regarding their health care and their diseases under Swedish conditions is, however, limited. This became clear in a postal survey among Swedish alpaca owners conducted in 2008. To improve knowledge about camelids in Sweden, this study has examined 107 necropsies, including 93 alpacas and 14 camels, conducted at the National Veterinary Institute (SVA) in Uppsala and at Eurofins in Kristianstad and Skara during the period 2001-2013. The study has shown that camelids in Sweden suffer from diseases similar to those previously reported in other countries in Europe and North America.

Pharmaceuticals that are found in marine ecosystems are a threatening environmental concern, which is known to harm both animal and plant life. One of the reasons for this problem is that the waste water treatment techniques are not optimized to clear waste water from its pharmaceuticals contain. In this master thesis four Swedish treatment wetlands were studied, and their ability to reduce numerous pharmaceuticals in waste water. The four treatment wetlands that were studied were those in Oxelösund, Trosa, Nynäshamn and Eskilstuna. Two ecotoxicological tests and chemical analysis were used.

Den här studien avser att undersöka hur syskon upplever att skiljas från sina biologiskasyskon som placerats i familjehem. Informanterna har förblivit i ursprungsfamiljen och delarinte upplevelsen av att ha blivit placerade. Frågeställningarna innefattar informanternas bilderav den ursprungliga familjestrukturen, hur de beskriver uppbrottet, hur de tolkar och hanterarsituationen samt hur de upplever relationen till de placerade syskonen idag. Kvalitativa,ostrukturerade, intervjuer har genomförts och därefter tolkats med hjälp av symboliskinteraktionism, anknytningsteori, systemteori samt copingteori. Resultatet visar att det sketten förskjutning av ansvar; föräldrarna har delvis gett upp sitt ansvar till barnen eftersom desjälva inte har haft förmåga att bära det ansvaret.

Equality between the sexes has been discussed in Sweden for more than 50 years. In the 60´s and during the 70´s the discourse that dominated the debate was based on the assumption that both men and women needed to liberate themselves from their traditional gender roles. In this approach information and education was perceived as the key to equality. During the 80´s however, power and subordination became the main focal point of concern within this debate, and focus upon changing the patriarchal power structures dominating society were perceived as the principal key for establishing equality between the sexes. Today, the latter discourse still dominates both the scientific and the political perspective upon equality.

Vi har valt att studera omhändertagandet och familjehemsplaceringen, vi vill även ta reda på om placeringen har betydelse i barnens liv. Under 2011 omhändertogs 6300 barn för vård enligt LVU, av dem var 1200 barn nytillkomna. Vi kommer i denna c-uppsats ge de omhändertagna barnen en röst, en röst som förmedlar hur de kände och upplevde de traumatiska upplevelserna när de blev separerade från sina föräldrar. Det övergripande syftet med vår undersökning är att söka kunskap om hur ett barn upplever omhändertagande och familjehemsplaceringen, samt hur det kan påverka barnen i vuxen ålder. Vi har valt att göra en semistrukturerad kvalitativ intervju med personer som har varit familjehemsplacerade under sin barndom.

Understory vegetation and fungi are regarded as important ecological drivers of processes like productivity and nutrient cycling in boreal forests. Whilst those processes are linked to soil water content, relatively little is known about the sources of soil water for these forest components. During early autumn in boreal forests, temperature falls and large events of rain are frequent which may influence soil water availability. To better understand the autumn plant-soil-fungi water relationships in this ecosystem, I used stable isotopes techniques in this study to examine the water sources for ericaceous shrubs and fungi in a Scots pine forest following a large, early autumn rain event. I hypothesize that ericaceous shrubs of two functional groups (evergreen vs.

Uppsatsen behandlar hur USA: s president George W Bush använder civilreligiösa inslag i sin retorik under sitt första år som president. Han startade ämbetsperioden med att använda religiösa anspelningar i sitt installationstal., för att sedan fortsätta i samma anda hela året. Bush är inte den första presidenten att använda sådana retoriska knep. Ända sedan USA: s grundande har presidenterna förstärkt sin talarkonst genom att hänvisa till Gud och att landet är utvalt av Gud - ett nytt Israel. Landets presidenter har alltid varit mer eller mindre övertygade om att Gud står på USA: s sida.

Diabetes typ1 är en av de vanligaste kroniska sjukdomar hos barn och är en allvarlig sjukdom som hela tiden kräver god kontroll och egenvård. Eftersom barnet tillbringar en stor del av dagen i skolan behöver egenvården fungera bra även där. Som lärare kommer man troligtvis att möta elever som har eller insjuknar i diabetes typ 1. Syftet Var att ta reda på om lärare anser att de har tillräcklig kun- skap om diabetes för att kunna vara delaktig i dess egenvård samt hur de får kunskap och informat- ion om diabetes. Jag ville även ta reda på om de upplever oro kopplat till elevens sjukdom och oro kring ansvarstagandet i samband med elevens egenvård.

The Clinical Pathology Laboratory at SLU in Uppsala has analysed several blood samples from Dachshunds with severe anemia. As there are no previous studies on this topic, a study was performed to evaluate if Dachshunds are more prone to severe anemia compared with other breeds. In addition, a retrospective case study on Dachshunds with severe anemia was done to search for common risk factors or diseases. Hemoglobin values in samples from 1272 Dachshunds and 2269 German Shepherds analyzed from September 1994 to October 2007 were used to compare the frequency of severe anemia in Dachshund and German shepherd. The samples were identified by laboratory information system.

The purpose with this project is to explore and verify three renovating systems for Miljonprogrammet (common expression forbuildings constructed during the years 1965-1975 when over a million houses where built in Sweden) to take measure to thelargely transmission losses of these buildings. Many of the buildings from this period have similar constructions and thereforethe same techniques can be used to renovate several of them. This project only considers the climate scale, although thereare many more factors to concern for to efficient the buildings of Miljonprogrammet.This thesis presents examples of renovations carried out using two of the three renovation systems.The essay presents a reference house of choice on which we apply the three systems and calculate the new U-values,consumption of energy and the investment costs. The new U-values the building is given is matched to the values ofrecommendation for passive houses. Our reference house is a two story apartment building, located in the village ofLammhult, with brick facades at the ends and plaster at the long sides.
