Allt fler barn f?r diagnosen autismspektrumtillst?nd (AST) b?de i Sverige och internationellt. Forskning visar att barn med AST ?r i behov av ?kat st?d och n?rvaro av pedagoger p? f?rskolan och att pedagoger genom att anv?nda tydligg?rande pedagogik kan skapa st?rre f?rf?rst?else inf?r ?verg?ngar. Forskning visar ocks? att det ?r viktigt att bygga en f?rtroendefull relation till barnen med AST och att det barnen beh?ver mest st?ttning kring ?r ?verg?ngar mellan olika aktiviteter. Det st?rsta sk?let till att det uppst?r sv?righeter f?r barn med AST i f?rskolan ?r dock att pedagoger saknar kunskaper kring bem?tandet av deras olikheter. Denna studie vill synligg?ra vilket st?d pedagogerna erbjuder barn med AST i ?verg?ngar p? f?rskolan och hur detta st?d kan p?verka barnens k?nsla av sammanhang (KASAM).

The purpose of this essay is to examine progression in user education atprimary and secondary school levels, specifically the role played byschool libraries, librarians and strategy documents in securingeducational progression. Progression is examined in the user educationprovided by the five schools, part of the same municipal schoolmanagement area which share the same strategy plan. The area, NorraFäladen, was awarded School Library of the Year in 2011 for its work,making it particularly interesting for this essay's purpose. The studycombines interviews with the area's three school librarians, who dividetheir time between the five schools, with an analysis of the strategydocuments that regulate user education within Norra Fäladen. Theanalytical framework is based on: AASL's model of progression in usereducation (Standards for the 21st-century learner); Ekström's model forsuccessful and active strategy documents; Kuhlthau's theory of thelibrarian's role in the information search process; and Limberg'staxonomy of the role of the school library.The study shows how a number of concurrent factors and prerequisitesinfluence how goals for progression in user education are met.

Corporate Social Responsibility, företagets sociala ansvarstagande, har de senaste åren uppmärksammats mer och mer. Medierna och intresseorganisationer har fått allmänheten intresserad av dessa frågor och trycket på att företag ska ta sitt sociala ansvar har ökat. Det sociala ansvaret ska genomsyra företagens hela organisation och sträcker därför sig även till leverantörer. Att kontrollera att leverantörer arbetar på ett etiskt korrekt sätt är inte alltid helt enkelt då geografiska avstånd försvårar kontrollen.Vi har för avsikt att undersöka hur mindre textilföretag kontrollerar sina leverantörer i u-länder med avseende på CSR. Vi vill ta reda på om relationens karaktär har betydelse för kontrollen och jämföra ifall små och stora företag arbetar på olika sätt.Vi har kommit fram till att små och stora företag arbetar olika med kontroll av leverantörer.

De senaste åren har värderingsmetoden värdering till verkligt värde blivit mycket kritiserad. Bland annat anses värderingsmetoden ge allt för stort utrymme för en företagsledning att manipulera de finansiella rapporterna. Uppsatsen behandlar därför hur väl företag följer upplysningskraven som de ska följa när de värderar tillgångar och skulder till verkligt värde enligt den internationella redovisningsstandarden IFRS 13 (International Financial Reporting Standard) samt revisorns uttalande i revisionsberättelsen gällande företagens efterlevnad av upplysningskraven. Detta görs för att studera om upplysningskraven efterföljs och i de fall då företagen inte följer upplysningskraven huruvida revisorn gör ett modifierat uttalande i revisionsberättelsen. Urvalet för studien är samtliga företag noterade på Stockholmsbörsen, Nasdaq OMX Stockholm, inom skogs-, fastighets- och banksektorn år 2012 och år 2013.

This study regards the Care of Young Persons Act, LVU, and the 2 § that focus on parent inability to care for their children. The assessment of parent ability to care for their children is performed by social workers in different municipalities. The law leaves room for interpretation concerning how to assess parent ability and therefore we found it interesting to study how social workers interpret 2 § LVU. The study?s aim was also to seek an understanding of how different categories, like gender, race, class and physical and psychical ability of the parents affect the assessment of their parenting ability, with a intersectional perspective.

AbstractThis study deals with motivation as an overall concept, from a student perspective. It encompasses factors that could directly affect students and their positive or negative motivation, concepts such as relationships, communication, expectations and interactions and their importance to my informants.The study also discusses certain theories to show the different ways of defining motivation, specifically in relation to my informants and their and my conclusions. My ambition is to establish the importance of the concepts mentioned above, as well as perspective changes to the enhancement of the performance standards of a good teacher.The purpose of this work is to describe, understand and clarify the external and internal factors that affect motivation. In order to achieve this purpose, I chose to use a method of qualitative interviews with three students, with different backgrounds, schools and conditions but with a lack of motivation as a unifying characteristic. The research questions were as follows:What factors influence students' motivation?   What impact do achievement targets have in relation to the pupils? own motivation to learn?How important are teachers' expectations for the individual student's motivation?Within this study sub-concepts such as importance of expectations, relationships, and significant others are, according to my analysis, of great importance.
