The induction creates collaboration between preschool teachers and parents where the interaction and socio-cultural factors have been key theories for the work task.The method used has been of qualitative nature where interviews were made with parents and preschool teachers. In these interviews, they shared their insights of how they experienced the interaction and communication during induction.

The same question was given to preschool teachers to respond to and also if there was something that worked less good during induction.The results show that parents and preschool teachers feel that induction works well satisfactory and that it is important that the interaction work well between both parts.

Spelmarknaden har expanderat de senaste åren men dock råder det fortfarande en brist på forskning inom spelområdet. Flera riskfaktorer anses undergräva spelproblem. En av de största riskfaktorerna till just spelproblem anses vara ökad tillgänglighet. Syftet med studien var att undersöka relationen mellan spel och tillgänglighet. Metoden bestod av en litteraturstudie där tolv studier baserade på kvantitativ data analyserades. I resultatet framkom, att ökad tillgänglighet till spelmöjligheter ledde till ökad spelfrekvens samt att ökad omsättning på spel ledde till fler negativa konsekvenser från spelande. Större tillgänglighet påträffades bland områden med lägre socio- ekonomi.

Syfte:Vårt övergripande syfte med studien är att studera sambandet mellan dyslexi och socio- emotionella faktorer. För att uppnå syftet har vi valt att fokusera på nedanstående områden:? självbild/självförtroende/självkänsla ? hur skolarbetet fungerar ? egen arbetsinsats och resultat? hur lärare och skolkamrater bemöter eleverna ? vilken förståelse eleverna upplever att lärare och skolkamrater har? framtidstankarMetod: Undersökningen är en kvalitativ intervjustudie på två gymnasieskolor i Västsverige. Respondenterna är sex gymnasieungdomar som har diagnosen dyslexi. Bearbetningen av materialet var att läsa, sortera och diskutera samtliga intervjuer många gånger för att på så sätt skapa kategorier samt hitta skillnader och likheter i svaren.

ICT and digital artifacts is an important resource in the society, especially in schools. That is why we have chosen to study if and how teachers uses ICT and other digital technology in their education in the history subject. We think that both subjects are important because history is a subject that has to do with the past, the present and the future.We made qualitative interviews with seven teachers from three different schools. We have analyzed if the teachers sees ICT as a burden or a resource in their education and also in which extend they have digital literacy. We have chosen to discuss different authors view on ICT in the education and digital literacy.

Traditionellt sett har vägsektorn främst använt jungfruliga resurser som konstruktionsmaterial. Intresset för alternativa material ökar dock och detta leder till att det blir allt vanligare att restprodukter används som konstruktionsmaterial.´ I dag saknas det enhetliga modeller, med allmän acceptans, för att bedöma en restprodukts lämplighet som konstruktionsmaterial i vägbyggnad. Detta innebär att det i varje enskilt fall tas fram ett bedömningsunderlag som anses vara lämpligt. För att bedöma ett materials lämplighet bör ett faktaunderlag inom en rad olika aspekter samlas in. De aspekter som kan vara aktuella kan delas in i Användning och Omgivning.

My thesis is based on a qualitative study. The purpose of the study is to investigate whether the educationalist at an especially chosen school in Stockholm promotes the students multicultural background in the education or not.This is due to the fact that the Swedish school to a considerable degree reflects the multicultural Swedish society. The socio-cultural starting point is when people come together and meet. The language is the tool of the socio-culture and it is the dialogue, discussion and sympathetic understanding that makes people meet.The cultural concept is diffuse and very wide. Everyone has their own definition of it.

This is a comparative study between traditional group work and cooperative learning among 9 graders at a Swedish high school. The classes did an assignment that involved translating and then both students and teachers answered a questionnaire. An example of how profitable cooperative learning is is the fact that the speech activity was more equal in the cooperative groups. All the students in the cooperative groups had to contribute to the assignment in order to fulfill the assignment. The reason for higher speech activity is the structure of cooperative learning, which involves roles suited for the assignment.

Syftet med studien var att genom en fallstudie få en känsla för vilka personer på skolan jag besökt involverar i arbetet med att ta fram, följa upp och se över verksamhetens likabehandlingsplan. Stämmer det som verksamhetens likabehandlingsplan lovar in med det arbete som egentligen sker i skolan? Ser man till att använda sig av den viktiga resursen som eleverna och deras föräldrar är? Anser föräldrar och elever att deras kunskaper kring arbetet är tillräckligt?.

The study's aim was to examine the professional role of the Special Education Teachers, working with students in socio-emotional difficulties with focus on externalizing behavior. The study is qualitative in nature, based on 10 interviews conducted at four different schools where four Special Education teacher and six teachers were interviewed. The system theoretical perspective was used as a theoretical basis, based on a holistic view of the schools where relationships, interactions and context is of great importance. The Special Education Teacher is a part of the school context and therefore it has been interesting to study how he/she works with socio-emotional difficulties in school activities on organization, group and individual level. The results show that externalizing students becomes a problem in schools today when they influence their surroundings and requires a lot of time regards to needs of both teachers and Special Education Teacher.
