This thesis deals with two types of agrarian remains in relation to settlement remains; clearance cairns, low stone walls and house terraces in the area of Northeastern Uppland and the area north of Lake Mälaren, during the middle Iron Age. The aim whit this thesis is trying to get a better understanding of the relation between agrarian and settlement remains in Uppland. Three places have been chosen where these three elements are present and they are interpreted through Richard Whites concept of middle ground but also Landesque capital. The three elements have shown to be expressed in different ways in all three sites. It is possible to see two areas with different traditions, but also to see two areas that closely interact with each other, this opens up for a new discussion around agrarian remains in both areas.

Med utgångspunkt i en analysmetod framtagen av The American Association of the Advancement of Science (AAAS) utfördes en läromedelsanalys på två separata utgåvor av ett läromedel författade av Birgitta Thulin och Sten Elm (Religion 1, utgiven 2010 och Religion 1 & 2, specialisering, utgiven 2013). Undersökningen gjordes för att söka svar på följande frågor: 1) Vad står det i ämnesplanen för grundkursen religionskunskap? 2) Vad står i motsvarande läromedel? 3) Hur skiljer sig de två undersökta utgåvorna? 4) Hur väl överensstämmer styrdokument och böcker med varandra?Analysen av materialet upptäckte att det finns en betydande diskrepans mellan innehållet i båda de undersökta böckerna, i jämförelse med styrdokumentets centrala innehåll. .

Although Sweden is considered to be in the lead concerning an open-minded perception of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) population, very little attention has been given to the elderly within this target group. The elder LGBT population?s got special needs that haven?t been made sufficiently visible, neither as a research field, from social institutions nor from the LGBT movement itself. This study has described the target group's specific needs, based on the results of a focus group consisting of older LGBT people. Their experiences and stories have given an idea of what adjustments must be made to satisfy their specific needs.

In light of health scandals and intense debate in the media about the elderly, the authors investigates two Swedish newspaper and their depiction of elder care in Sweden. Using Faircloughs three-dimensional model and critical discourse analysis, it is investigated if there is a more prominent discourse and if so the impact of globalization on this discourse concerning swedish elderly care. A sample of a total of ten articles in the Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet and Dagens Nyheter is analyzed.

My purpose is to describe and analyse how care managers experience their position as middle managers in the public sector. I have used a qualitative interview method to answer this question and also to capture my six interview persons opinion and understanding of their own position as middle managers. From my six interviews I noticed some difference in their opinions about how it is being a care manger. The results show that the role as care managers have challenges such as to intertwine their own notion how the caring of the elder should be with strict politic decisions. Other challenges are the limitation of economic recourses and reorganisations.

I denna rapport behandlas frågeställningen: Hur kan man, med så få element som möjligt, skapa ett trovärdigt 3D-material; trovärdigt nog för att det ska kunna uppfattas som det verkliga material det försöker efterlikna? Som med mycket annat kan det vara en fördel att ha mer grundläggande förståelse för hur det man arbetar med och försöker efterlikna är uppbyggt. Syftet är att ta reda på om det finns några grundpelare i 3D- grafik som man bör ha i åtanke när man är ute efter att skapa ett visst sorts 3D- material utifrån verkligheten. Materialen som undersöks är trä, sten, metall, hud, hår/fjädrar och tyg. De presenteras i programmet Marmoset Toolbag och idén är att bryta ner dem till de minsta beståndsdelarna som behövs av ett material utan att förlora känslan av det materialet.

Musik används ofta för att presentera och förstärka narrativet i både film och spel. Det innebär till exempel att den får publiken eller spelaren att känna vissa känslor, att den presenterar underliggande narrativa element eller markerar specifika rörelser i bilden. Syftet med den här rapporten är att jämföra spelmusik och filmmusik ur ett narrativt perspektiv. I denna jämförande studie intervjuas åtta testpersoner som får spela en spelsekvens och titta på en kort film tagna från spelet The Elder Scroll V: Skyrim (2011), båda med musik speciellt skriven för undersökningen. Det som sedan utvärderas är om testpersonerna upplever några skillnader i det musikaliska narrativet och i så fall på vilket sätt de gjorde det.

This study will examine if caregivers, working with people with dementia problems, is in need of support and in what way they see how the support should be designed. Previous research shows that there are many factors in elderly care that affect all of the caregivers. Working with people in this sort if dependence, requires a lot of the caregivers, both mentally and physically. To study if the caregivers consider themselves to be in need of support, and in what way they see how the support should be designed, the study employs a qualitative approach using to types of interviews, one focus group with four assistant nurses, and two individual in-depth interviews with the administrative personnel and one nurse. The results show that the need for support for the caregivers exists. Caregivers working with people with dementia problems, daily face difficulties, some more difficult to handle than others.

The aim of this qualitative study was to explore which inner conceptions about the abused older women the professional social workers had and how they experienced the enconter of an abused old woman in an intimate partner relation. The theoretical background is social construction by Berger and Luckmann. This theory was uset to analyze the transcribed interviews. This study is based on nine interviews with five professionals in social services, three volunteers from the voluntary sector and one social worker who worked in a community based support group for abused older women. The result of this study shows that older women were often abused, by a relative they were dependent on, in their home.

Detta examensarbete beskriver en utvärdering och sammanställning av hur företaget Sh bygg, sten och anläggning AB för tillfället arbetar med arbetsmiljöarbetet. Rapporten tar även övergripande upp frågor om arbetsmiljö inom byggbranschen, vanligt förekommande olyckor och skador samt den lagstiftning som finns och reglerar arbetsmiljöarbetet. Företaget ville få reda på hur arbetsmiljöarbetet fungerade, om det fanns skillnader mellan kontoren i Uppsala och Stockholm och om de följde föreskriften om systematiskt arbetsmiljöarbete. Genom diskussioner med bl.a. platschefer och en sammanfattning av företagets övriga delar i arbetsmiljöarbetet kunde en allmän bild av det arbetet skapas och analyseras.
