The aim of this study has been to create a future scenario of what archiving might look like in the future. The main theory used in the study comes from future studies, but also a theory about the social impact of technology on work were used. The questions that were analysed were about the tasks of the archivist, the appearance of the archival institution, collaboration with other LAM institutions, knowledge requirements for the archivist and the amount of archivist positions. The method used in the study was scenario writing, which derives from future studies. The source material consisted among other things of regulations and laws related to archiving together with some archival manuals.The tasks of the future archivist will probably consist of the same tasks as those of present archivists who work with digital archiving, even though archivists probably forever also will have to work a little with paper records.The future archival institution will probably retain its paper records and keep its digital records on digital storage media.

I slutet av 1800-talet startade många västeuropeiska länder vad som kallats "kampen mot tuberkulos". Sjukdomen skulle stoppas genom en utbyggd vård och förebyggande insatser. Barnhemmet jag har undersökt startades 1930, och syftet var att undvika smittspridning genom att ta emot barn till tuberkulossjuka. På 1950-talet breddades intagningen i takt med att tuberkulosen minskade. Trots detta kvarstod institutionens ursprungliga behandlingsideologi - att fämja hälsa genom näringsriktig kost och utomhusaktiviteter, och att vara ett hemlikt barnhem.

This study examined constructions of horses and means staff working with horses parallel to therapy in institutional care ascribes to horses. A narrative method was used and the theoretical framework was social constructionism.

Horses seem to provide a multi-faceted therapeutic tool.

Title: Development and continuity: A new institutional case study of a Danish public library in changeAbstract: The purpose of this master's thesis is to discuss and analyse the relationship between the traditional core values belonging to the institution of the public library, and the development work that takes place at the institution. The thesis also investigates the relationships that influence the development work.By investigating a library that is considered progressive in its development work, our purpose is also to unveil alternative values that compete with the traditional core values. By illustrating the perception among seven staff members and the director at Aarhus Public Libraries, we want to illuminate the terms for development among public libraries. In addition to our interviews, an activity plan is studied.We base our study on new institutional theory which focuses on norms and values in an organisation. This focus helps us to understand the development work from a comprehensive view.Our study shows that the development work at Aarhus Public Libraries is taking place in a complex environment that consists of several different actors and different interpretationsof the traditional core values of public libraries.

This thesis is about language planning in Faeroese libraries as seen from the countrys specific situation, with Faeroese as a mothers tongue, but with great dominance of the Danish language within media. The purpose of my thesis is to examine language planning activities within the library, and the consequences this planning has for the system. Different theories about language planning provides a framework for my model of the library as a linguistic eco-system with actors performing status planning, represented by the government with its influence in cultural politics, the librarian with his or her library tasks and the user with his or her needs. The thesis has a qualitative attempt, and the empirical material consists of different documents about the country and materials from interviews made with seven qualified librarians, employed within general libraries in the Faeroe Islands. The analysis shows that the librarian in different ways promotes the Faeroese language within library activities, and because of the attention paid to the user in the public library he/she influences the librarians planning.

Syftet med denna kvantitativa studie var att undersöka om kvinnliga studenter hade sämre självkänsla och rapporterade mer stress och psykisk ohälsa än manliga studenter, samt att jämföra skillnader i självkänsla, stress och psykisk ohälsa vid två olika institutioner. Undersökningen avsåg också pröva om självkänsla och stress predicerar psykisk ohälsa. En enkätstudie genomfördes på 79 studenter från Institutionen för psykologi vid Lunds Universitet och ekosystemteknik på Lunds Tekniska högskola. Med hjälp av skalorna RSES som mäter självkänsla, USSQ som mäter stress, samt GHQ12 vilken mäter psykisk ohälsa, konstruerades en enkät.Resultaten visade att de kvinnliga studenterna upplevde mer stress än de manliga, men rapporterade inte sämre självkänsla eller högre psykisk ohälsa. Det fanns inte några skillnader mellan studenterna vid de båda institutionerna i fråga om rapporterad självkänsla, stress och psykisk ohälsa, och inte heller någon interaktionseffekt mellan kön och institution vad gäller dessa variabler.

This survey aims to investigate and analyze how six teachers on a high school in Stockholm reflect on pedagogical aspects of problem based learning( PBL). The survey focuses on ana-lyzing how the teachers relate to the benefits and problems of PBL and how they reflect on the students development. The survey was conducted on a high school and the method used for the study was interviews, each taking 30-45 minutes. The outcome of the survey indicates that the teachers sees problem based learning as an alternative to what they define as tradi-tional education regarding its epistemology. They indicate that PBL allows the students to define their own questions, to be carriers of knowledge and to evolve analytic skills in relation to the basegroup.

Inledning: Det finns idag en brist när det gäller forskning kring privata HVB-institutioner. Denna studie ämnar undersöka miljöterapeutiskt behandlingsarbete på HVB-institution. Författaren är intresserad av hur ett anknytningsbaserat behandlingsarbete kan se ut.Frågeställning: Hur skapar behandlingspersonalen förutsättningar för ungdomarnas möjlighet till anknytning?Metod: Genom att göra djupintervjuer med fem behandlingshemsterapeuter om deras arbete i den ostrukturerade miljöterapin, ämnar författaren att bidra till förståelsen och innebörden av anknytningsbaserat arbete på institution. Intervjuerna har analyserats med hjälp av förutbestämda dimensioner tagna från anknytningsteorin.

The data consist of interviews with four young persons, of which three, at the time for our interviews, where in the transitionphase, and one had left the institution a few years ago.

The purpose of this thesis is to investigate if there are environments that use some kind of central authentication system within institutions/schools. The hypothesis is that an institution not using a form of central authentication service has more need for maintenance and as such is considered a higher cost for the organization. The gathering of data has been done through interviews with technical personal at Blekinge Tekniska Högskola and Linköpings Universitet. Based on the technical background of the authors, and the system limited to discussing Windows and UNIX operating systems, a discussion and analysis of the systems working today has been done, with emphasize on the hypothesis..

 Syftet med studien är att undersöka om placerade ungdomar får den information de har rätt till och om de upplever att de får sin röst hörd. Forskningen om barn och unga som är placerade i samhällsvård visar att ungdomarna upplever att de inte blir lyssnade på och att de inte känner sig delaktiga i de processer som rör dem. För att kunna besvara studiens syfte har semistrukturerade intervjuer gjorts. Nio intervjuer har genomförts med ungdomar mellan 18-21 år som alla varit placerade på HVB-hem eller på institution. Resultaten visar att ungdomarna inte får den information de har rätt till vid en placering och att de inte upplever att deras handläggare är lätta att få tag på. .

2007, Swedish television, ?Uppdrag granskning,? aired their story about ?Louise? from Vetlanda. A drug dependent father had gotten custody of his daughter and sexually abused her from the age of 10 to 15.

At one time, father and daughter were living in his trailer placed in a gravel pit, and the police worried about her and called social services, because it was below cero degrees outside.
