Syftet med arbetetär att undersöka om det finns möjligheter för barn och elever att få redskap för att hantera konflikter på ett konstruktivt sätt.Idéenbygger på att elever genom kommunikation kan förutse en konflikt och då hanteradetta på ett konstruktivt sätt.Vidare ärsyftetatt undersöka hur det ser ut på fritidshem vad gäller pedagogers förmåga att förmedla detta. Genom intervjuer ochenkäterkartläggshur pedagoger ser på konflikthanteringoch vilken utbildning de har i detta.Resultatet visaratt pedagoger som är trygga i sin profession vad gäller konflikthantering inte upplever konflikter som negativa, de vet hur de ska agera för att hjälpa elever att själv hantera situationer där de behöver komma överens. Resultatet visar även att lärarutbildningarän så längeberör dessa områden alldeles för lite, samtidigt som det är varje enhets eller pedagogs ansvar att fortbilda siginom områdena kommunikation och konflikthantering.

Syftet med uppsatsen var att undersöka pedagogers inställning till lärarlegitimation samt huruvida legitimationen på olika sätt kan beröra både verksamma och nyutexaminerade pedagoger. Syftet med studien var även att skaffa oss en djupare förståelse kring lärarlegitimationen och dess innebörd. Av intresse var också att undersöka vad informanterna anser om sin egen utbildning samt om de ser på lärarlegitimation som ett svar på att höja läraryrkets status. För att få svar på våra frågor har vi använt oss av både kvalitativ och kvantitativ metod där vi genom semistrukturerade intervjuer, enkäter, litteratur och tidigare forskning analyserat vårt material. Resultatet visade att inställningen till lärarlegitimation förhållandevis är positiv men att det enligt informanterna krävs mer för att legitimationen ska vara värdig sitt namn och inte bara vara ?ett utskrivet papper?..

The aim of this study is to examine how zodiac signs are depicted through social interactions from an identity perspective and if zodiac signs can be seen as a form of divination. Our method was based on the answers of seven informants (six interviews in total), all of whom were interested in astrology with two of the informants having the title of astrologer by profession. After the implementation of Erving Goffman?s dramaturgical theory regarding identity and Jesper Fr?kj?r S?rensen?s divinatory perspective, we found evidence in the orrelation between zodiac signs and identity, along with astrology having little to no correlation with divination. The results show that although the majority of the informants were hesitant to the assertion that astrology can provide divinatory evidence, many of them still consumed and followed astrological advice based on prognosis.

This essay studied how six girls experienced their reading development during their college education in male-dominated profession programs. The issues assumed were how they experience their literature reading and literature education and what happened with their interest in reading. The theoretical frame included researchers Säljö, Rosenblatt, Gun Malmgren, Olin-Scheller, Ulfgaard and Molloy.The study showed that most of the girls felt their reading had worsened but not because of their male classmates but because of school. They had a lot of homework and participated in so many different school projects which would be completed that there was no time to reading for pleasure. The girls did not like the teachers? literate sample and did not like the methods used in learning literature.

The production of cut flowers has diminished in Sweden and the remaining growers produce mainly in greenhouses. This situation could be changed if hardy, garden perennials suitable for Swedish conditions were to be used as cut flowers. A grower with suitable equipment as plastic tunnels or houses would be able to provide florists with an attractive assortment of perennials for cutting, during an extended selling period compared with the natural flowering period for these cultivars. This assortment would be based upon imported perennials already used by florists, but would also contain new products. To investigate the demand for locally field grown perennials as cut flowers, an inquiry took place.

The main purpose of this master thesis is to explore a selection of Swedish librarians view of professional ethics. The latest master thesis written on the subject was published in 1997, which concluded that the Swedish public librarians had a poor awareness concerning professional ethics. We wanted to investigate if something had changed. We interviewed six librarians from five public libraries, asking them questions concerning ethical guidelines, responsibility, censorship and selection, pressure from lobbyists, and ethical problems relating to Internet. The answers we got gave the impression of a divided profession, and the librarian?s awareness of professional ethics can hardly be said to have been improved since 1997.

Syftet med vår studie är att ta reda på hur matematiklärare på grundskolans senare år ser på verklighetsanknuten matematikundervisning samt att undersöka hur de eventuellt bedriver sådan. För att uppnå syftet utformade vi en enkät som delades ut till 60 verksamma matematiklärare i år 7-9 inom Luleå kommun. Under bearbetningen av det insamlade materialet framträdde bilden av att inställningen bland lärarna till största delen är positiv till verklighetsanknuten matematikundervisning. Det framgår också av undersökningen hur sådan matematikundervisning bedrivs, närmare bestämt genom att använda matematiklitteraturen, nyttja exempel ur vardagslivet eller arbeta med tema och arbeta med projektarbeten. Detta styrker oss i vår uppfattning att verklighetsanknuten matematikundervisning är värdefull för att fånga elevernas intresse och få dem att inse nyttan av skolmatematiken.

My thesis is based on a qualitative study in which I have selected six professional teachers in a school in Greater Stockholm, and their views on the phenomenon of conflict management. My questions were the following.How teachers perceive the phenomenon of conflict in the world of school?What strategies do teachers use to resolve conflicts with students?In order to analyze my informants, I have chosen different books that deal with conflict man-agement, policy documents and books on the teaching profession meaning. Through my investigation I found that some teachers used tools and strategies through expe-rience and reflections, and resolve conflicts together or individually. My informants described that there are some teachers how choose to hide and pretend not to see the problem.

Sammanfattning Syftet med vår undersökning var att få syn på vad som utmärkte nyexaminerade lärares beskrivning av vad och hur de använder lärarutbildningen i sin profession, med fokus på de teoretiska momenten. Den dominerande bilden i tidigare forskning är att nyblivna lärare upplever många svårigheter under den första tiden i yrket. I det nya Lärarprogrammet från 2001 fanns en strävan efter att utbildningen skulle bli mer vetenskaplig och akademisk. Vi undersökte om lärare, examinerade från den nya utbildningen, beskrev att de hade nytta av de teoretiska momenten och om dessa på något sätt underlättade i vardagen. Vi har gjort en kvalitativ studie med halvstrukturerade frågor.

The aim of this essay was to look into and compare the experiences and opinions about the practice of 13 § LVM among persons that, through their profession, use the law.The questions we have been asking were; what experiences and opinions the individuals have about the paragraph in general, what they think about the cases when no application for LVM is made after a client has been taken in charge as directed by 13 § LVM, and of the fact that the majority of cases of LVM are initiated by the same paragraph. Another question was how the individuals think about the legal security in connection to 13 § LVM.The methods used are qualitative and we have interviewed individuals from different fields of social work that comes in contact with drug abusers.The findings from these studies include that care made out of the clients' free will is the main reason why an application is not made. It is also the reason to why many LVM initiates as directed by 13 § LVM for the reason that the districts above all try to help the clients without force. The economical aspects are repeatedly mentioned as another reason to the problems appeared in connection with 13 § LVM..

Arbetet består av en undersökning av förskollärare examinerade 2002 och deras första tid i yrket. Fokus i undersökningen har varit på lärarnas ambitioner och på svårigheter att förverkliga dessa. Tolkningen av materialet har varit att försöka förstå relationer mellan ambitionerna och svårigheterna. Övergången från lärarutbildningen till att arbeta i verksamheten, är den fruktsam för professionens utveckling? Det är ett fenomen jag undersökt.

The Swedish armed forces are facing a change, a change in both organization and profession. From a conscript military service system, the Swedish Armed Forces has changed to having full-time contracted soldiers. Conscript military service has a history of over a hundred years; it was introduced in 1901 and has survived two world wars and the Cold War.The Swedish armed forces have changed to have contracted soldiers. My reflection is whether the armed forces really have had time for this changes that the new professionalization has meant. Today the Swedish armed forces consists of contracted soldiers, soldiers who are employed full time and costs the armed forces a lot of money.

The number of HIV- positive is increasing all over the world and it's very likely to meet these patients as a nurse. The interaction between the nurse and the patient is characterized by experience and knowledge and at the same time the nurse is expected to act professionally. The purpose of this literature review is to investigate the nurse's complex of problems regarding the treatment of the HIV- positive patient by exploring the attitudes against HIV among nurses and how the nurse can maintain the integrity of the HIV- positive patient. Antonovsky's salutoqenic model, sense of coherence, has been used as theoretical frame. From 14 articles five topics have been found that influence the nurse's attitudes against HIV-positive patients.
