This paper is written to take a close look at teaching methods used at the Summer Academy (SHS), which is held at Södertörns Högskola in Stockholm. SHS is a subdivision of the institution of teaching education, which annually, during summertime, offers an eight-day program for pupils between 13-15 years of age, from different schools located in socio-economically disadvantaged suburbs of Stockholm. The intention of SHS is to give the participating pupils an insight into higher education, especially that of university. The purpose of the activities, such as field trips, guided tours and corporate visits, is to make pupils aware of their own responsibility for their educational situation through different methods of knowledge transfer, to diversify the means of the education, and to bring awareness to the array of possibilities which they have access to within the Swedish system of tertiary education.The study is based on six deep-interviews, three with pupils and three with student mentors. Together with 131 surveys from the course given during the summer of 2014, and theories of John Dewey on ?Learning-by-doing?, the results show that pupils participation in SHS give them a better understanding for, and knowledge about their own educational responsibility.Another question this paper seeks to address is how significantly the SHS program is changing the pupil?s experience of education in general and their view upon higher education specifically.

As a newly graduated student in construction you rarely have as much knowledge as you wish you had. It is a complicated line of business that requires knowledge and understanding of both technical solutions and interaction between actors. It is impossible to be fully learned and with that much unknown it can be hard to know where to start. This report is one step in the right direction. It contains a planning that contains construction and installations for a one level house in Kiruna with its different choices motivated.

Boulognerskogen is a park in the central of Skövde that have had a health resort, paths for strolling, outdoor-bath, outdoor-sport areas and events. During the 1970:th there was a lack of interest for the park and very few visited it. By a motion from a resident in Skövde wich proposes that a city playground will be build in Boulognerskogen gave me an opportunity to investigate how the potential of the park can be used to create a funny and nice place to visit for children in company with adults. By a program that contains the main goals and design program for a city playground in Boulognerskogen, I wanted to present a proposal that could meet childrens needs to play and to use the conditions of the place to create places to play in, and where children in company with adults could be together. To reach this, I wanted to try different methods that could lead to a proposal that was well supported by children and adults, and wich was possible to use by the local authority in their further actions. The methods that I used was therefor an important part of the work. I have choosen to define the concept "city playground" as a greater playground situated in the center of the town that are suitable for outings and as a meetingplace, with a varation in playground attractions and promote children and adults to be together, aiming at younger children in the ages of 1-10 years in company with adults, but should also give space to activities of other groups.

Syftet med studien var i första hand att studera ungdomars upplevelse av makt över sin framtid direkt efter avslutad gymnasietid. Med en enkätundersökning undersöktes 85 ungdomar i årskurs 3 på gymnasieskolans omvårdnadsprogram, samhälls­vetenskapliga program, tekniska program, handelsprogram och naturvetenskapliga program gällande variablerna personlig attityd, subjektiva normer (socialt tryck) och upplevd kontroll. Ingen skillnad framkom mellan yrkes- eller studieförberedande program i attityd till beteende, däremot framkom skillnader vid jämförelse mellan de olika programmen, eleverna på omvårdnadsprogrammet hade en statistiskt signifikant mer positiv attityd till det egna beteendet jämfört med det naturvetenskapliga programmet. En signifikant skillnad framkom också mellan könen i attityd till beteende och upplevd kontroll där tjejerna värderade dessa variabler högre.Resultatet kan förklaras med att det bland flickor ses som mer acceptabelt att studera medan killarna snarare riskerar att få en låg status om de fokuserar för mycket på skolan. Då det i denna studie framkommer att attityden till det egna beteendet var en bra bit över medelvärdet visar den på att en positiv attityd till att det egna beteendet är viktigt. De subjektiva normerna visade att den sociala pressen inte var så stark hos respondenterna vilket är positivt då det visar att eleverna inte upplever sig styrda av den egna sociala gruppen..

This study is based on the discussion of the rapid development and use of the Internet and its role in transforming the religious landscape. More specifically it focuses on the Swedish Muslim cyber landscape and how this has changed over the passed twelve years. Göran Larrsons study Svenska cybermuslimska miljöer i början av det 21 århundradet (Swedish Cybermuslim Enviroments in the start of the Twentyfirst Century) from 2001, is being used as a starting and reference point. The general purpose of this essay is to study religious change online. The specific aim is to investigate if and in that case, how and why the Swedish cyber-Islamic landscape has changed and developed in the last twelve years.The questions to be answered in this study are:- What Muslim actors (groups, individuals and organizations) are represented on Swedish web pages in 2013?- Have the Swedish Muslim cyber landscape changed with respect to the number of web pages, content and actors since 2001, and can these changes be understood and analyzed with the help of existing research on religion and new media and Islam and Muslims in Sweden?The result of this essay shows that there has been a dramatic change regarding the activity in the Swedish Muslim cyber landscape.

This thesis has aimed to study steering process and institutionalization in the context of educational policy work. This has been conducted by using empirical material from the political decision-making process that preceded the implementation of a new national program on how principals should be educated and certified. By using an aggregated theoretical point of view containing new institutionalism and traditional Swedish curriculum theory, the process was analyzed from different perspectives. The results depict a process that contained several actors who tried to shape the principal education program differently. From the theoretical perspectives, the decision-making process could be understood as an act of both self-interest as well as trust in their own beliefs and cultural values.

Syftet med detta examensarbete är att belysa på vilket eller vilka sätt lärare i gymnasieskolan förknippar elevers grupparbete med skolutveckling. Vilka pedagogiska tankar ligger bakom lärares användande av grupparbete som arbetsmetod, hur ser de på att träna elever i grupparbete och hur ser de på förhållandet mellan grupparbete och skolutveckling? Undersökningen är av kvalitativ karaktär där metoden för insamling av data består av enskilda intervjuer med sju gymnasielärare som arbetar på både yrkesinriktade och studieförberedande program. Resultatet visar att lärarna som arbetar på rent yrkesinriktade program framförallt ser elevers grupparbete som en förberedelse för deras framtida yrkesliv, medan lärare på studieförberedande program tenderar att tala mer om vilken nytta grupparbete har för eleverna i skolsituationen. Vid en analys av hur lärarna ser på att träna elever i grupparbete ser man att vissa av lärarna är mer konkreta i sitt resonemang kring om och hur de arbetar med att träna eleverna i grupparbete, medan vissa är mer abstrakta i sitt resonemang.

The field of veterinary nursing should be based upon research and proven experience. Few studies have been performed within the area of distal limb bandages. Therefore the aim of this study was to examine and describe how to place a distal fore limb bandage based on proven experience. Data material was collected through four interviews with professional veterinary nurses, and then analyzed using a qualitative content analysis. In the analysis data material was transcribed and then divided into meaningful units that responded to the aim. The meaningful units were then condensed.

If one looks at physical planning in Sweden today one can see that while talking about densification of existing development, reduced emissions and careful use of important land, urban sprawl is a fact with development of sheer residential districts in the urban edges and shopping malls in each and every municipality. As sustainable development is an essential goal for physical planning to strive towards, it is worth questioning if the direction of today?s planning will lead to the goal. A sustainable development can be seen as an obvious to goal aim at. In reality the aim means a hard and complex work.

Den här rapporten undersöker distansutbildningar vid Högskolan i Kalmar, på Institutionen för kommunikation och design (IKD). Dels tas det upp hur IKD jobbar med distansstudier idag men även hur distansutbildning fungerar och hur man kan förbättra denna. Anledningen är att distansutbildningar idag är ett utvecklingsområde där det ständigt händer nya saker. Distansutbildning är kanske på väg att revolutionera sättet på vilket vi idag bedriver utbildning, både i grundskolan och upp till högskola/universitet.Uppdraget kommer från lärarna på IKD som känner att de vill förbättra sin situation. Undersökningen genomfördes med hjälp av etnografiska studier där undervisning observerades och lärare intervjuades.

Bakgrunden till vårt val av ämnesområde har uppkommit eftersom vår uppfattning är att den undervisning som sker i värdegrundsfrågor, många gånger fungerar i klassrummen, ändå uppstår konflikter av olika slag utanför klassrummet, till exempel på skolgården eller i korridorerna. Syftet är att, genom en kvalitativ studie, undersöka lärares uppfattningar av villkor för värdegrundsarbetets betydelse för eleverna i skolans tidiga år. I studien analyseras hur lärare förstår samspelet mellan å ena sidan undervisning i värdefrågor och å andra sidan elevers tillämpning i deras praktik. Metoden baseras på enskilda intervjuer med sex lärare som arbetar i skolans tidiga år. I studien redogörs kortfattat för tre perspektiv på lärande, vilka är tolkade ur respondenternas utsagor.

Some word processing programs save information that not all users of the program are aware of. This information consists of a number of things. Example of that is who the writer of the document is, the time it took to write it and where on the computer the document is saved. Text that has been changed or removedcan also be saved. This information is not shown in the program and the user will therefore not be aware of its existence.
