The house of one of the most prominent Swedish artists of the 20th century, Bror Hjorth (1894-1968), was turned into an artists-museum and opened to the public in 1978. It has since the start held pedagogical activities and during the years developed its own pedagogical approach.I have studied the museums pedagogical work from two perspectives; visiting groups of immigrants and visiting groups of schoolchildren, in search of answers to the questions; can art be used as a way to integrate immigrants into the swedish society, and can artmuseums be a resource for schools?This essay contains my observations, conclusions and theories as well as general facts about Bror Hjorths House..

Syftet med undersökningen är att undersöka hur lärare i engelska kommunicerar med sina elever i undervisningen för att skapa en atmosfär av aktivitet och lärande.För att undersöka ovanstående syfte har vi använt oss av observationer i kombination med ljudinspelningar för att ge en klar bild av kommunikationen i klassrummet. Totalt sex lärare i högstadiet och gymnasiet deltog i undersökningen och samtliga lärare observerades vid två tillfällen.I våra resultat framkommer det att lärarna i undersökningen använder sig främst av förfrågan som verbala yttringar i sin undervisning, tätt följt av befallningar. Lärarna använder sig av ett kroppsspråk som är starkt..

How do you reed a book? Do you start at the beginning,or do you begin with the end or maybe in the middle? Inmy exam project I elected to work with a photographicpublication about fragments of pictures combined in differentways, changing the context of the photographs andmaking the reader search for the whole picture, literary.During the project I tried to create a method for foldingwhich would make the pictures communicate differentlydepending on how they where stacked against each other.I wanted to explore new ways to read the photo book, andhow the format could be transformed by folding, to beable to show the pictures in a larger scale. Working withthe material from an earlier project about defragmentation,I wanted to create a book that would correspond tothis and figure out how it would work..

Syftet med detta arbete är att förbättra ett verktyg för strängsprutning (extrudering). Arbetet består av tre faser (konstruktion, tillverkning och statistiska analyser). Omkonstruktionen sker med hänsyn till en del områden som har potential för optimering. Man börjar med en förstudie för att lära sig mer om verktyget och produktionscykeln och för att få en bättre helhetsbild. Innan arbetets start fastläggs en del avgränsningar, så att studenterna får en ram att jobba inom.

This master thesis is about amateur writing. To understand the writers needs and wishes about writing and access to information I have researched writing in a writing group. To answer my questions I have studied research literature and interviewed six of the members of the writing group. I also participated in their meetings for two years. The result of this study shows that writing had a therapeutic function for all of them in a period of their lives.

AbstractBackground: Plantar fasciitis is the most common heel injury and is a long-term pain syndrom in the attachment of the plantar fascia to the calcaneus bone. The condition is treated mainly in primary care, but there is currently no treatment guideline for the treatment of plantar fasciitis in Sweden. The purpose of this study was to investigate which treatment that occurred in primary care in Dalarna, Gävleborg and Västmanland counties, which treatments that were most common alone and in combination with each other. The aim was also to investigate if the four most commonly used treatment methods as physical therapists said they had used were supported in the literature, and if there was any difference between county employees and private physical therapists in the choice of treatment method.Method: 100 physiotherapists in primary care in Dalarna, Gävleborg and Västmanland counties, received a questionnaire by mail. 80 of the 100 physiotherapists were county employees and 20 were private employees.

The purpose of this thesis is to examine how the working method partnering has been welcomed in the Swedish construction company NCC and find possible explanations to this. The theoretical background used to understand and discuss our findings mainly builds on value and network dynamics. The empirical study is of a qualitative nature and builds upon 13 semi-structured interviews and the participation in a two-day start up workshop with 21 representatives from involved parties. The study shows that partnering has been positively accepted at NCC. Possible explanations for this can be found in the contrast the method represents to the traditional way of working within the construction industry.

This essay presents a business plan for the idea of a Pet Shop in Stockholm. The initial purpose of the essay was to investigate weather the company would be financially profitable or not. During the process we encountered problems and pitfalls that we felt contributed to the fact that our business idea is yet not realized. Therefore the second purpose of describing the process that an entrepreneur goes through when starting a new business came about. Besides the business plan for Pet Shop we present a selection of the theories that we found relevant for our situation, among others behaviour of entrepreneurial teams, network theory and execution.

I have made a research about two different methods for introducing small children to Nursery School/Kindergarten. I choose to do this as I have found very little about this in the literature we have studied during my education to become a pre-school teacher.This period in the life of very small children and their parents is a big change in their daily life. The more traditional way to start pre-school is to do it very gradually during two weeks, the two-week method. This means that the parents visit the pre-school together with their child for a very short time, about one hour the first day. After one week they leave their child with the staff for about an hour and at the end of that week they try to leave it full time (6-8 hours).

The subject of this bachelors degree project is an interior layout for road ambulances.Landstinget Västernorrland (LVN) wanted a layout concept that would be used to com- municate their design intentions to the ambulance producers during their purchase process.Designing ambulance interiors is an extremely complex process since there so many fac- tors to take into consideration. It ?s not just about taking the equipment and place it where there is space left in the cabin. You have to start with the user in focus and the tasks that are to be performed in the ambulance environment.It ishard to find design solutions that will fit 100% of the ambulance personnel?s working routines for 100% of the tasks.

The purpose of this study was to follow a research-oriented design process and to develop a design draft for a digital service that supports users to make more environmentally conscious choises in their everyday life. By following an interaction design process from start to final delivery, the study aims at creating a broad understanding of the process. Therefore, many userrelated activities were implemented in the study: eg. personas, scenarios, sketching and user testing. The project resulted in digital wireframes for an iPhone application using embedded GPS to identify and locate environmentally friendly businesses.

Syftet med det här examensarbetet är att undersöka om det finns något samarbete mellan de svenska mikrobryggerierna, samt att titta vidare på hur detta samarbete kan tänkas se ut. Datainsamling har skett i form av fyra delvis strukturerad telefonintervjuer med bryggerier i olika storlekar. Bryggerierna som deltagit i arbetet är Oceanbryggeriet, Gamla Slottskällans Bryggeri, Kallebryggeriet och Oppigårds Bryggeri. För att besvara syftet har tre huvudområden undersökts: samarbetsområden, vilken typ av samarbete det handlar om och slutligen anledningen till samarbetet. Resultatet har varit ganska spritt, men tyder på att det samarbete som sker är av primär informell struktur, men att föreningen Sveriges Småbryggerier har, sedan sin start 2008, inkluderat en stor andel av bryggerierna och börjat skapa ett mer formellt samarbete mellan bryggerierna..
