Syfte:Som pedagog använder man sig ständigt av olika strategier i sin undervisning för att nå de mål som är uppsatta för verksamheten. Den här uppsatsen syftar till att ta reda på hur pedagoger som använder sig av massage i skolan resonerar kring massage och vilka strategier de tillämpar.   Metod:En kvalitativ metod i form av en intervjustudie användes för att få fram resultatet, en studie i vilken tre yrkesverksamma lärare medverkade. Informationen från intervjuerna lades sedan in i mjukvaran Complador som är uppbyggt enligt Trenätsteorin, och ett strateginät skapades. En observation genomfördes även för att ge en inblick i hur ett massagetillfälle i skolan kan se ut. Resultat:Resultatet av undersökningen visar att de intervjuade pedagogerna har liknande strategier för sitt användande av massage som en del av undervisningen.

Studien är en kvalitativ undersökning med syfte att se hur ett träningsuppehåll av högintensivt tränande personer hanteras utifrån bemästringsstrategier. En bemästringsstrategi beskrivs av tidigare studier som en process, ett sätt att hantera stress. Den tidigare forskningen kring bemästringsstrategier kopplat till träningsuppehåll är begränsad. För en ökad förståelse kring träningsuppehåll har även träningsmotivation och känslan av ett påtvingat träningsuppehåll undersökts där hypotesen varit att träningsuppehåll upplevs som stressande. Nio personer, som tränar tre till fyra gånger i veckan, har intervjuats.

Our modern swedish society is charactarized by peoples and cultures from all over the world. In this perspective I believe that young pupils of today need culture studies in school in order to understand themselves and further to recieve knowledge about different cultures, traditions and lifestyles. The present study is an attempt to investigate the potential of the ethnological culture analysis as a pedagogical method. The paper is divided into two sections; one in which I (a student teacher in swedish language training) have applied the culture analysis in a literary context. By using the culture analysis on Emily Brontë´s classic book Wuthering Heights I have tried to let typical elements from the Victorian era appear.
