The aim of the present study is to describe the experiences of high school students as regards the effects of their activities, in and out of lessons, being published on the web. In addition, a further purpose is to acquire knowledge about whether a website could be used as means of increasing the students level of attention, and focus, to their activities in school; and, furthermore, how such a website should be designed to correspond with the students requests.The implemented methods are interviews with students, school administrators and teachers. A survey was conducted covering the student?s personal experiences and opinions. Furthermore, an interface test of the website was performed.

The purpose of this report was to investigate what characterizes a good psychosocialwork environment, and whether it may have impact on a vessel's safe voyage. Thisreport is proposed to increase the understanding of what creates a good psychosocialwork environment and its potential effect on safety at sea. In order to find out thesuccess factors for a good work environment group interviews were conducted in socalledunstructured focus groups. During these conversations, the participants discussedfreely by the question "what is a good psychosocial work environment for you?? Thesuccess factors were thereafter applied on selected accident reports, to investigate theextent to which they were represented and taken into account.The results of the study show three categories of factors: colleagues, communicationand competence, where colleagues are the main contribution to a good psychosocialwork environment.

The aim of this essay is to examine how the Internet functions as a communication channel to Event Marketing. We have investigated what makes the Internet unique as a communication channel for events and how Internet has been used for event marketing. We have mapped fundamental theories within marketing, media, communications and human-computer interaction, which together describe event marketing. We have carried out case studies on two event-marketing projects where the Internet has played a major role. The first project was XCT which is a project developed by the company Eventum AB.

In this report we examine the NFC (Near Field Communication) technology as far as the development has come until today. We adress different use areas and explain the technical funcionality. By using data collection methods as a specialist interview and also a survery we want to detect potential risks and safety-issues in implementation of the new technology. Our main-focus in this report is to examine how NFC can play an important role in the developement of social interaction and social media. By compiling our data and research materials we will analyze and present a report conslusion.

The Intensive Care Unit (ICU) is a special unit for patients who is in the need for emergency life-sustaining measures and every patient has complex medical- technical equipment. The experiences of a critical illness and the needs of critical care are experienced in different ways. The purpose of this study was to describe the experiences from patients in the ICU and how this experience has an influence on the patients. The method was a study of literature with a qualitative inception based on eight scientific articles and the analysis of content has been inspired by Graneheim and Lundman (2003). The result of the study is presented by four categories: to loose the ability to make themselves understood, to be forced to adjust to the environment of caring, to have the lack of connection with reality and to be in an intensive care environment, The results showed that patients in the ICU are affected by the attitude from the staff, the equipment around them as well as the sounds and lights in the environment there.

The aim of thesis was to, through a action research study and through individual interviews with five students, clarify their perspective on educational assistance in high school. The study shows that students prefer teaching in small groups outside of regular whole class because it gives the them access to the factors they consider crucial for a functioning support-time whit a skilled and dedicated teatcher, in a calm and safe environment. Moreover, the students claim the importance of technical equipment especially in the Swedish subject, but also in other subjects. Today the educational assistance varies from an outside-the-class teaching situation to a whole-class situation with teacher support as well as technicaal equipment. When the student were asked to describe the cinditions under which studies can be conducted with the whole class they tried to imitate the learning environment they have in a small group.

The technology used in the development of web-applications is evolving at such rate that it has become more and more important to keep web-applications modern. If an application is based on a technical platform that is not renewed, the platform may over time develop into an obstacle in further development of the application. There may be compatibility issues and some of the code may be unnecessary due to abstraction, and therefore more time consuming to work with. Sometimes the reason may be that an application has been built to run, and is running on an application server that is no longer being maintained. The system can be large and modernization can cost a lot.

The water tower in Uppsala city forest was built in the late 1950's in what is now a nature reserve. The unique place was supposed to be visited by people, which is currently not the situation. This bachelor thesis aimed to perform an analysis and make a design proposal for the environment surrounding the water tower. The analysis was performed using the methodology previously described by architect Arne Branzell. The methodology focuses on how a space is perceived by a person moving through it.

A new type of chartered holiday, fitness holiday, has evolved during the last years and has also been mentioned in different media channels. Despite this, fitness holiday is a relatively new and unexplored phenomenon, which caught our interest to further explore this. The desire to travel on a holiday of this type has also increased. Therefore, a study about this particular phenomenon with focus on the traveler?s motives behind the choice to go has been done.It?s a qualitative study and most part of the data has been collected during a field study to Playitas Resort, Canary Islands.

Within the framework of the concept of Network Based Defence (NBF) services should be available in the network, in order to increase the aggregate capacity. A common situation picture is one of these services.The aim of this paper is to answer the problem "What are the main problem areas in the creation of a situation picture in the land arena, with the help of the technical sensors that exist today?" and to develop a basis for continued research in the field situation in the concept Networking Enabled Command, Control and Collaboration (NEC3) at JCDEC (Joint Concept Development and Experimentation Centre). To answer the problem, a descriptive method is to be used in descriptions of the land arena, the information arena and the sensors and a deductive method is used when analyzing the asensors in the land arena.The problems that exist in the creation of a common situation picture, is that different types of obstacles makes it difficult for the sensors, the large number of people who are not combatants and that it is difficult to judge if a civilian vehicle is a threat, then it could be driven by civilians or by combatants..

Vårt syfte är att studera vad ett företagsekonomiskt perspektiv på strategisk ledning innebär för en komplex turismdestination. En del av den strategiska planeringen på en destination kan innefatta en strategi för turismen och vidare vill vi därför betrakta begreppet turismstrategi, för att utifrån olika tankesätt analysera kring denna strategi och dess användning inom planeringen för destinationen. Med utgångspunkt i syftet har vi valt att utföra en kvalitativ empirisk undersökning i form av både personliga intervjuer och intervjuer per telefon och e-post. Respondenterna har utgjorts av 24 beslutsfattare inom turismnäringen hos svenska kommuner. Vidare har vi tillämpat lämplig litteratur samt vetenskapliga artiklar.

Abstract: Uppsatsens problematik grundas i ett ökat nyttjande av kulturarv som resurs inom turismbranschen där kulturarv används för att skapa attraktiva besöksmål. Kulturarvet omvandlas till en handelsvara vilket kan få konsekvenser. Uppsatsen handlar både om en komplex urvalsprocess och intressanta aspekter kring hur besöksmålen väljer att skildra sitt kulturarv för att locka besökare samt hur kulturarvet påverkas av att det utvecklas till en kommersiell produkt. Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka hur kulturarv används som resurs för att skapa attraktiva besöksmål på en destination. Genom att kulturarv används som resurs för att skapa attraktiva besöksmål anser vi att det sker ett aktivt urval kring kulturarv utifrån tre nivåer.

The aim of this study is to examine the roles of the children?s librarian in a reading aloud context. To reach understanding in this subject, we have conducted interviews with four Swedish librarians working in public libraries whom are involved with reading aloud practices. Previous research shows that the reasons for reading aloud in libraries are diverse and plentiful. Such reasons can be to spread cultural experiences, help children develop their language skills and promote the library to the public.

Den här uppsatsen har ambitionen att studera och dra slutsatser gällande den litauiska tjänstemarknadens möjligheter att ta till sig moderna ekonomiska företeelser, mer specifikt upplevelseekonomin, genom att ta till hjälp modeller och teorier hämtade från flera olika forskningsfält. Uppsatsen byggs upp med en diskursiv ansats där de olika teorierna används var och en för sig för att beskriva och förklara de fenomen vår empiri givit.Vi har konstaterat att det, i och med de kvardröjande mentala och fysiska strukturer som är sprungna ur den sovjetiska ockupationen, finns betydande begränsningar inför skapandet av en upplevelseekonomi på den litauiska tjänstemarknaden. För att kunna beskriva dessa mentala och fysiska strukturer presenterar vi ett för forskningsområdet nytt begrepp, nostalgija, som är sprunget ur befolkningens förhållningssätt, både till sin historia och till marknadsekonomins frammarsch.I och med de slutsatser vi gör om Litauens tjänstemognadsgrad, kan vi sen dra slutsatser om lämpligheten i vår användning av valda teoretiska verktygslåda. Vi finner att vi med dessa annars disparata teorier och modeller till hjälp kan nå längre, och presentera ny kunskap som annars inte kunnat utläsas ur en dylik begränsad studie. Dock poängteras att teorierna inte kan anses vara tillämpliga tillsammans i något annat sammanhang än i just den här diskursen..
