A social intranet is an information and communication channel that is relatively new. There is still a small amount of research done around social intranet and what it is, and also on what organizations and their members may benefit from using such an intranet. Therefore, this paper was written with the purpose to em-phasize the reasons, possibilities and difficulties of implementing and using a so-cial intranet. With interview as method we took part of the experiences and views on social intranet from a number of organizations that are using or is about to establish a social intranet, and also from companies who deliver the service. Through the use of previous research in organizational communication, we then analysed the responses we received from our respondents.

Today, we can see that social navigation is embedded in different kinds of websites, but there is still little support for social navigation in the web browser. Our main concern has been how we construct a tool that fills this hole in the web browser. By letting the theory, the prototype and the focus group serve as input/output to each other we could create a better overview of how the different pieces were intertwined. This has been a crucial mental model for us to obtain since it has helped us to understand how we could realize the theory through our prototype and thereby come to the conclusion of what aspects of the theory that we should put forward to further development. After constructing the prototype we thought that it would support social navigation, but realized after analyzing the discussion of the focus group that we are not there yet.

Vårt examensarbete handlar om mobbning i skolan sett ur pedagogers olika perspektiv. Arbetet är uppbyggt kring forskning som rör mobbning och intervjuer med yrkesverksamma pedagoger i Malmö och Helsingborg. Skolan i Malmö arbetar inte utefter någon speciell modell medan skolan i Helsingborg arbetar efter Olweusmetoden, då de är pilotskola för denna metod. Vårt syfte med arbetet är att få reda på hur olika pedagoger arbetar med sina klasser för att förebygga mobbning. Vår huvudfråga är: På vilka sätt kan man som pedagog arbeta förebyggande mot mobbning? Vi har även tre stycken underfrågor som är: Var har pedagogerna hämtat inspiration från? Märker pedagogerna att deras arbete ger resultat? Kan man, med tanke på skolornas olika förutsättningar, se någon skillnad i förhållningssätt och metoder? Vi har använt oss av intervjuer för att få svar på våra frågeställningar.

Mitt syfte med detta arbete är att ta reda på hur skolan tolkar begreppet klassrumsklimat. Jag vill undersöka hur elever och pedagoger arbetar för att påverka klimatet och om de kan se några förändringar. Som metod har jag valt kvalitativa intervjuer med pedagogerna i två femteklasser och kvalitativa gruppintervjuer/samtal med eleverna i samma klasser. I resultatkapitlet presenteras intervjuerna under rubrikerna klass 5b och 5a och under var rubrik i följande ordning: pedagog, killar, tjejer. Jag har kommit fram till att ett aktivt och engagerande arbete med klassrumsklimatet ger en trygg elevgrupp.

The purpose of this essay was to examine and compare what attitudes Swedish and Belgian social workers may have towards residential care and foster care for children and young people. To answer the purpose eight qualitative interviews with four Swedish and four Belgian social workers were made. The results were analyzed by theory of organization and professional acting space. The results of the study show that the social workers in both countries preferred foster care, especially for small children, and that the Swedish social workers had a more negative attitude towards residential care than the Belgian social workers. Even though the Belgian social workers preferred foster care, they found themselves forced to choose residential care due to lack of available foster care facilities, something that did not seem to affect the Swedish social workers.
