Inkludering på vitryska : Fältstudier i Vitryssland gällande inkludering av
The aim of this study is to describe and examine the characteristics of inclusion of children with disabilities in the kinder garden and primary school in Belarus. The data in this study were collected through interviews with special teachers and staff at the Developing and Rehabilitation center. The interviews were supported by child-observations and a literature study. Staying in boarding schools prevents handicap students from integrating with the society as well as getting social experience. Integrated education demands the combination of two regularities: education of children with normal development and special education of children with psycho-physiological problems.
Att tala är silver, att tiga är guld? : - En kvalitativ studie om interaktion i samband med talad engelska under engelsklektionerna
Since the 1990?s the Swedish school system has undergone major and recurring structural reforms. Two of the most comprehensive changes has been the shift of primary schools as an integral part of the welfare state to the responsibility of the municipalities as well as the introduction of free school choice for the students. Through two months of participant observations and semi-structured interviews this thesis seeks to answer the question of how these reforms has come to effect the work of teachers in a medium sized public school in a small municipality in the outskirts of Stockholm. Earlier research has shown that public schools in socio-economically vulnerable areas are disadvantaged due to the reformation of the school system (Beach & Sernhede, 2011; Östh, Andersson, & Malmberg, 2013).
Gäddfisketuristerna : En kartering och marknadssegmentering av de Europeiska marknaderna för gäddfiskande turister i Sverige
This investigation indicates that there are regions within Europe that seems to have similar preferences and priorities regarding pike angling travels to Sweden. Swedish pike angling facilities process in first hand markets with favourable economic circumstances and a cultural interest for pike angling. There was a big differences in features between the Northern, Western, Eastern and Southern regions of Europe. They also seems to be tied to specific regions within some of the nations.The regions have diverse requirements and distinguish in terms of consumption and preferences regarding different aspects of pike angling. From there it is possible to divide pike angling tourists into segments.
Mikroskopering av opaka faser - en studie från Skyttgruvan, Falun.
In nature there are about 4,500 minerals identified. These can roughly be divided into two groups, opaque phases and non-opaque phases, with the exception that some opaque phases also may act as a non-opaque phase in different circumstances. The division is made on the basis of the optical properties. Opaque phases are nontransparent, which means that a different type of microscope must be used. A conventional microscope uses transmitted light while the microscope for opaque phases or the ore microscope uses reflected light.
Psykisk ohälsa hos barn : Hemmets resurser i förebyggande syfte
During the later part of the 20th century the amount of children and adolescents in Sweden who reported psychosomatic illness have greatly increased. The main reason is estimated to relate to weak resources in school and school healthcare. Increased resources do not always have to encompass investments for school and school healthcare. Other resources play an important part as well. A child?s domestic situation serves as one of those resources where fundamental knowledge and values are set.
Towards an Understanding of Heterosexual Risk-Taking Behaviour Among Adolescents in Lusaka Zambia
This thesis investigates the underlying factors behind sexual risk-taking and non-risk-taking behavior with regard to Sexual Reproductive Health (SRH) among adolescents in Lusaka, Zambia. The Qualitative Approach was used for data collection and analysis and using the theory of Social Construction, the author explains how different contexts and aspects in the Zambian Society, that is Traditional, Socio-economic, Political, etc., influence the sexuality or sexual behavior of young people in Zambia. Hermeneutics was used to interpret the meanings in the texts/transcripts acquired through data collection and from the author?s knowledge and understanding of the Zambian historical and cultural contexts within which the participants of the research were constructed. Max Weber?s Ideal Type concept was also used to explain that each young individual?s sexual behavior is uniquely constructed by societal aspects.

These statistics provide important information tofinancial institutes, ministries, industry and mass media among others. Furthermore, the vehicle statistics include measures of comparison between different counties and municipalities.
En obekväm statistik ? en jämförande studie av CO2-utsläpp från transportsektorn
Syfte: Syftet är att undersöka huruvida Sveriges officiella CO2-data från trans-portsektorn är internationellt rimliga åren 1990-2004. Sverige har uppvi-sat en internationellt lyckad reduktion av CO2-utsläpp samtidigt som Väg- och transportforskningsinstitutet visar att Sveriges CO2-utsläpp från vägtrafiken kan vara dubbelt så höga som rapporterat. Metod: Undersökningen sker genom en jämförelse mellan Sverige, Danmark, Norge, Spanien och USA. Ekonomisk tillväxt sätts i relation till CO2-utsläpp och transportsektorns utveckling och ländernas personbilsparker undersöks. Tyder ingenting på missvisande data torde Sveriges lyckade CO2-minskning vara ett resultat av effektiv miljöpolitik.
Translokation av större vattensalamander : -bevarandestrategi eller riskåtgärd?
This study evaluates the retention of nitrogen and phosphorus in four newly constructed wetlands in the municipality of Falkenberg, Sweden. The four wetlands have been selected because they have been specifically constructed with the aim to reduce nitrogen and phosphorus in farming areas. The process of selecting the specific wetlands has been done in collaboration with the county administration in Halland. Through field studies in collaboration with the landowners where the wetlands are sited, the areas that provide the wetlands with water were determined. The size of these drainage areas were determined in a GIS computer program. The type of land use within the drainage areas was also determined.
Tillväxt och utländska direktinvesteringar - med siktet inställt på Europa
Utländska direktinvesteringar tillskrivs en allt större betydelse för ekonomisk tillväxt och de flesta länder vidtar åtgärder för att öka andelen inkommande direktinvesteringar. Samtidigt har det varit svårt att få fram empiriskt förankrade resultat som stärker dessa antaganden. Syftet med följande uppsats är att utreda om, och i så fall genom vilka kanaler, ekonomin påverkas av inkommande direktinvesteringar från utlandet. En tillväxtmodell med kapitalackumulation och kunskapsbaserade spillover-effekter utvecklas utifrån teoretiska antaganden om att utländska direktinvesteringar påverkar tillväxten genom kapitalackumulation, spridning av teknologi och andra kunskaper sompåverkar faktorproduktiviteten, samt ökad konkurrens. Modellens empiriska förankring testas med hjälp av regressionsanalys, vilken undersöker hur inkommande direktinvesteringar påverkar ekonomisk tillväxt.

Sveriges potential för elproduktion från takmonterade solceller : Teoretisk, teknisk och ekonomisk analys
The Swedish potential of electricity production from roof mounted solar panels has been determined in three steps: accessing the existing roof top areas, simulating the amount of electricity solar panels can produce on these areas and finally analyzing how large the necessary economical change is to make the solar cells profitable.The total existing amount of roof top areas are 319 square kilometers and the area distribution follows the distribution of people. This leads to an installed power of 47,9 GW which are expected to produce 49,0 TWh electricity per year. If the quality of the electricity is prioritized the highest the power is reduced to 3,7 GW, generating 3,8 TWh yearly, but if the hosting capacity is calculated from Sweden?s total electricity need, the capacity is 42 TWh per year.Today, solar panels are not profitable in Sweden for houses, even though there is a subsidy of 35 % of the investment costs, discounted in 25 years. The profitability is calculated with a cost of capital of 5 %, a price on electricity of 1 SEK/kWh and an investment cost of 20 SEK/Wp.
Idrottsvanor bland ungdomar : En kartläggning över föreningsidrott och spontanidrott
This master thesis examines sport habits among young people and a view of their future in sports. Research has shown that the majority of youth leave sport clubs during adolescence. The thesis questions were: How physically active are young people? Which sports do they practice? Regarding their future in sports, what kind of aspirations do the young people have? Are there any barriers that could complicate their involvement in these activities? These questions were examined by analyzing if there were any differences between boys and girls, youth in different grades and youth with Swedish or foreign backgrounds. Pierre Bourdieu´s theoretical framework about sports and economic capital has been used as a research framework.
