This paper reports from a study looking at teacher?s and student?s apprehensions regarding rubrics. The idea to research this specific subject stems from our interest in this phenomenon due to our education and curiosity about how rubrics are apprehended and not about how they are used or described. To explore this area we have used empirical material compiled through interviews. The analysis is done by creating categories containing various apprehensions expressed in the material through different characterizations of the phenomenon called rubrics.

This thesis primarily includes a study on whether companies can develop a mathematical activity that supports students' motivation in mathematics. The work was done together with Midroc Electro, a company that pays attention to the difficulty of recruiting and therefore was interested in investigating how the business world would be able to contribute.The thesis can be divided into three stages. The first part comprised by a exploration into research on student motivation regarding mathematics as well as numerous interviews with engineers to see how the research findings did fit with Midroc Electros reality. In these studies it became clear that the student who aims for a profession whose education or work requires math belongs to the group of students who primarily manage their studies in mathematics, that is, those that have the greatest motivation to work hard and complete their studies.Research information and interviews were compared and resulted in the thesis second part, Midroc Challenge. An activity where students primarily came to learn about the engineering profession and secondly how mathematics can be used in the engineering profession.

Jag har i den ha?r uppsatsen beskrivit hur det ra?der en otydlighet i vad begreppen saklighet och allsidighet inneba?r inom skolans va?rld. Jag har framfo?rt ett intresse fo?r hur samha?llskunskapsla?rare ser pa? begreppen och hur de tolkar dem. Jag har sen presenterat tidigare forskning om la?rares uppfattningar och visat att intervjustudier, fenomenografi och grounded theory a?r vanligt inom denna typ av forskning.

This bachelor?s degree project in social anthropology examines how teachers and school staffin grades 7-9 navigate between relationship-building work and the maintenance of authority.By studying interactions in both classrooms and informal environments, such as corridors andcommon areas, the study highlights how these dimensions take shape in concrete everydaysituations. The aim is to deepen the understanding of how teachers in practice balance thedemands for closeness and trust against the need for order and boundary-setting. The mainargument of the thesis is that relationship-building and authority do not constitute opposingpoles, but are closely intertwined practices that are constantly shaped and negotiated througheveryday micro-actions. This balancing act, described through the concept of ?hugs withboundaries?, is deeply situational and requires staff to continuously adapt their approachaccording to the specific situation and student group.

Syftet med detta examensarbete a?r att fa? insikt i hur la?rarens ickeverbala kommunikation och actio pa?verkar elevers motivation. Utifra?n en etnografisk arbetsmetod observerades en svenskla?rare pa? en gymnasieskola under fyra lektionstimmar fo?r att underso?ka hur la?raren kommunicerade med sina elever ickeverbalt. Parallellt med observationerna intervjuades ba?de la?raren och eleverna som deltog i underso?kningen.

The basic principle of the integrated school according to the Salamanca Declaration is that all children, whenever possible, should be taught together, regardless of any difficulties or diversity. It has been shown that students with neuropsychiatric disorders are having much more difficulties to achieve the targets than the average student. Pupils with neuropsychiatric syndrome will always be present in school and we who are working in the business must be better at learning to adapt to them so that they too can achieve proficiency in school.Mathematics is perhaps the topic that Swedish students generally have most problems with,and it will not obviously be easier if you have some form of neuropsychiatric disability.In our future role as special education teachers, we will mentor and support other teachers in the complex educational environment that exists today. The aim that has been built up is thus partly to explore how mathematics teachers work with included students with neuropsychiatric disorders, as well as how teachers wishing to become supervised by specialeducation teachers in mathematics. The study is conducted from a sociocultural perspective.A sociocultural perspective on learning means that all people are learning all the time in social settings.

Syftet med denna undersökning är att ta reda påom det finns speciella mönster i layouten mellan tio olika annonser fråntidningen Metro Student Magazine. Genom att undersöka hur rubriker, bilder ochlogotyper är placerade samt göra färg-, text- och retorikanalyser på annonsernavill jag ta reda på om det finns samband - likheter och/eller skillnader -mellan deras layout. Annonsernas färger, teckensnitt, genomsnittliga meningslängdersamt mottagartilltal undersöks för att slutsatser ska kunna dras om deraslayout. Undersökningen visar att det finns vissa likheter och skillnader mellanannonserna beroende på om de kommer från företag som vill rekrytera personaleller om de kommer från företag som vill sälja en speciell produkt.Resultatetvisar även att det finns ett mönster angående annonsernas placering i tidningenoch att samtliga annonser, som grupp, har vissa likheter, vilket kan visa påatt annonser i Metro Student Magazine har speciella layoutmönster..

Sammanfattning Under tiden som yrkesverksam la?rare kommer man med stor sannolikhet undervisa elevermed autismspektrumsto?rning. Denna studie inriktar pa? just denna funktionsnedsa?ttning och hur la?rare kan arbeta pedagogiskt fo?r att sto?dja dessa elever. Syftet a?r da?rmed att underso?ka la?rarens upplevelser av att undervisa elever med autismspektrumsto?rning.Studien grundar sig pa? tre olika teman som a?r kopplade till studiens fra?gesta?llning.

Marketing of education is a phenomenon which has been developed throughout the increasing competition within the educational sector. The focus of this paper is the marketing made by upper secondary schools (grade 10-12) in Stockholm. The competition in this area is increasing partly due to the growing number of private schools. However, this is a phenomenon seen only in larger cities with several schools available. There are over 170 upper secondary schools in Stockholm and the students freely can choose among these.

Three different factors are thought to be involved in the increased segregation in Stockholm: the living segregation, scientific and political dissonances and the social economical factor. Many segregated areas have many inhabitants with foreign background. Schools in these areas have a higher number of students with lower grades compared to other schools with higher number of students that are ethnical Swedes. Jordbromalmsskolan is a school in Haninge kommun that is one of the seven schools in Stockholms suburbs where students graduate with the lowest grades. The school is suffering from a very bad reputation because of many problems like fights between students and lack of resources like purchase stop.

De barn som inte f?ljer f?rskolans sociala normer hamnar utanf?r och riskerar att bli bed?mda som avvikande. V?rt syfte med denna studie ?r att kartl?gga hur tidigare forskning f?rst?r sociala normer och hur pedagogers makt p?verkar sociala normer i f?rskoleverksamhet. Vad som anses vara ett avvikande beteende enligt f?rskolare i tidigare forskning.

Studien har haft en hermeneutisk utgångspunkt där semistrukturerade intervjuer av kvalitativ metod har använts för att samla in data från fem studerande män i åldrarna 20-26 år. Syftet med studien har varit att belysa unga universitetsstuderande mäns erfarenheter av den manliga studentrollen i relation till alkoholkonsumtion. Vi har med Goffmans dramaturgiska perspektiv och Connells maskulinitetsteori tolkat resultatet. Det framgår att rollen som student har förväntningar på sig att gestaltas på specifika vis och att detta formar de individer som går in i denna roll. Lika så gäller för rollen som man, där vissa attribut och handlingar krävs av individen för att visa upp och markera tillhörighet till rollen.

With examples from a single classroom situation, several educational moments show what goes on between the teacher and the student. The teacher?s responsibility in the learning process is, with a gesture frozen in the air of the moment, to lead and follow the student in her tentative efforts at seeking knowledge. Initially, it is an attempt to shed light upon the "not yet seen" with a certainty that the student herself possesses the capacity and the aptitude to reach greater insight and clarity in her understanding. The Validation/Feil Method presented in this instructional situation illustrates how best to communicate with elderly people suffering from Alzheimer?s dementia.

Denna uppsats redovisar en beskrivande fallstudie som gjordes pa? en svensk ho?gstadieskola och som gick ut pa? att underso?ka vilken plats Wikipedia har pa? ho?gstadiet idag. Fo?r att ta reda pa? det gjordes enka?tunderso?kningar bland elever och la?rare och textanalyser av elevuppsatser. Geografia?mnet anva?ndes som exempel pa? skolans undervisning.

Enligt b?de styrdokument och skollagen s? framkommer det att barn i behov av st?d ska f? det st?det de ?r i behov av. Det som inte st?r skrivet ?r hur detta arbete ska bedrivas, det kan tolkas som att det ?r upp till varje verksamhet. Det r?der m?nga fr?getecken kring hur arbetet ska se ut. I den tidigare forskning som anv?nts som underlag f?r kommande studie framkommer det att m?nga barn inte f?r det st?d som de ?r i behov av.
