I takt med att GIS (Grafiska InformationsSystem) blir allt vanligare och mer användarvänligt har WM-data sett att kunder skulle ha intresse i att kunna koppla information från sin verksamhet till en kartbild. Detta för att lättare kunna ta till sig informationen om hur den geografiskt finns utspridd över ett område för att t.ex. ordna effektivare tranporter. WM-data, som det här arbetet är utfört åt, avser att ta fram en prototyp som sedan kan visas upp för att påvisa för kunder och andra intressenter att detta är möjligt att genomföra genom att skapa en integration mellan redan befintliga system. I det här arbetet har prototypen tagits fram med skogsindustrin och dess lager som inriktning.

The social dimension in the EU, explored through the document texts of the Treaty of Rome, the Lisbon Strategy, the Social Policy Agenda and the Swedish Strategy ReportThis paper explores the social dimension of EU social policy, except the aspects of the economic and labour market. The EU documents reveal an underlying line of thought stemming from the alignment of the six founding countries, spearheaded by France, with the conservative corporatist welfare model. As one of four European welfare models, the conservative corporatist model emphasises labour market issues, corporate social responsibility and the subsidiarity principle in EU social policy. It also influences how the texts define the terms social, social policy and social exclusion. The definitions determine how policymakers combat problems such as social exclusion and identify the policy issues to be included in EU social policy.The Swedish Strategy shows how the country is responding to the objectives that it has been assigned by the EU and how it plans to attain them.

Vattenfall och Birka Energi, som har expanderat kraftigt både vertikalt och horisontellt och som tillsammans har nästan 50 procent av alla anslutna kunder.

Redan innan barn börjar skolan har de föreställningar inom matematik och naturvetenskap.Syftet med mitt examensarbete är att jämföra lärares arbetssätt gällande begreppsutveckling i matematik och naturvetenskap samt deras sätt att integrera dessa ämnen? i förhållande till målen och valda teorier. De mål jag avser är de som berör begreppsutveckling i läroplanen Lpo94, läroplanen för förskolan Lpfö98 samt kursplanerna för matematik och naturorienterade ämnen. Jag har använt mig av kvalitativa lärarintervjuer och observationer. Resultaten jag kunde se är att medvetenheten kring den matematiska begreppsbildningen är hög både bland förskolelärarna och lärarna i undersökningen.

The purpose of this thesis is to cast light on the residential area Rosengård in Malmö which during the years between 1965 to 1975 was part of a programme known as "Miljonprogrammet", a project which was supposed to put an end to the housing shortages. The purpose of this thesis is also to investigate the social consequences in Rosengård, which arose as a result of Miljonprogrammet. Rosengård is one of many immigrant-dense suburbs in Sweden that by the media is given an exaggerated negative portrayal. Through our work, we also want to bring out and highlight the true image of Rosengård. The questions that have served as our starting ground include; what were the thoughts behind Miljonprogrammet? What were the consequences of Miljonprogrammet? What does the true image of Rosengård look like? What can the new government do in order to improve the situation in Rosengård? In order to answer these questions, four interviews were conducted with specifically chosen people.

Sedan 80-talet har inställningen till funktionsplanering av städer svängt från funktions- uppdelning till funktionsblandning. Anledningen är att funktionsblandning främjar stadsmiljöer för fotgängare och cyklister, ökar det sociala klimatet i gaturummet och minskar miljöpåfrestningarna genom möjlighet till samordnad logistik. Men även om stadsrum och stadsformer på pappret i många fall anpassas för att stödja funktionsbland- ning så blir resultatet inte alltid en funktionsblandad stad. Idag börjar planeringsfältet inse att istället för att planera funktionsblandning måste de incitament som stödjer funktionsblandning planeras för. För att möjliggöra denna planering måste verktyg och analysmetoder användas och utvecklas för att mäta vilka grader och typer av funktions- blandning som en plan har potential för.

AbstractThe aim of this thesis is to analyse a proposition that was made by the Swedish liberal party in the election campaign in 2002. The proposition was part of an integration program and the main point was that to become a Swedish citizen you should do a test to prove your ability in Swedish. In this paper, I?ve been investigating the way that this proposition was presented and the reactions that it met among the Swedish people. In my work I have noticed that there are some specific arguments that were very powerful and which were the ones that attracted most people.

Denna uppsats belyser frågan om hur det särskilda stödet på en högstadieskola upplevs av och fungerar för elever och lärare. Vi försöker även definiera begreppet ?elever i behov av särskilt stöd?. Detta har vi gjort genom att intervjua fem lärare samt genom en enkätundersökning av elever i tre klasser på skolan.Skolverket har genom sina inspektioner kommit fram till att vart fjärde rektorsområde behöver förbättra sina insatser för att kunna tillgodose elevers behov av särskilt stöd. Så var även fallet för den skola där undersökningen gjordes.Det resultat vi fick genom våra undersökningar påvisade att lärare och elever inte var helt nöjda med skolans insatser på området överlag.
