Barn ska enligt FN:s barnkonvention ha rätt att bilda egna åsikter och fritt uttrycka dem i alla frågor som rör barnet, och dessa åsikter ska tas på allvar. Förståelsen av vad det innebär att ha ett barnperspektiv har ändrats på senare år och differentierats i två betydelser. Barnperspektiv syftar till att ta hänsyn till barns villkor och verka för barnens bästa och barns perspektiv innebär att barns åsikter och synsätt tas på allvar i planeringen. Flera studier har tidigare undersökt barns deltagande i olika planeringsprojekt och visat att barnen ofta endast är med på bild i projekt utan att ha något egentligt inflytande. I min uppsats undersöker jag ett dagsfärskt projekt för att se vilket sorts barnperspektiv som är mest framträdande.

Syftet med denna undersökning är att undervisa i musik och ensemblespel på en anstalt och studera vilka effekter undervisningen har på internernas aggressiva beteende och destruktiva tänkande. Aktionsforskningen baseras på teorin om att ensemblespel även är en utmanande och effektiv gruppsykologisk övning. Situationen tvingar dig att ta ansvar för din uppgift i gruppen i realtid. Den negativa, kollektiva konsekvensen av en persons misstag är snabb och konkret. Studien vill se om musik och ensembleundervisning kan användas i såväl träningen av interners samarbetsförmåga och tolerans som ett verktyg för interners utveckling inom kognitivt beteendeterapi.

?Claiming the right to space? is an argument frequently used by street artists for justifying illegal art in the public space. The public city space as a room of democracy and right to free speech is by some people considered threatened by commercial interests, and street art has become a way to demonstrate disapproval towards this. Street art is illegal and often anonymously performed in our cities. It developed in the late 1970s from the urban graffiti scene in America, and has therefore a lot in common with the graffiti movement.

In this study I have met three authors in a dialogue seminar on their literary work. The discussion, starting from texts by Lacan and Socrates, revolved around the dichotomy of personal and private, and how to benefit from personal material in one?s literary work. The three authors reflected on the writer Karl Ove Knausgård and the photographer Sally Mann, who both are working with their own immediate family as a motif. In Knausgård, you can find a strong and self-dissecting writer persona as a medium of creating recognition in the readers mind.

SammanfattningI denna studie har vi valt att fokusera oss på den interna kommunikationen som sker mellan projektledaren och projektgruppen. Att jobba i någon slags projektform är något som blir mer på arbetsmarknaden. De krav som ställs på en projektgrupp men framförallt på projektledaren kan ibland sträcka sig till att bli omänskliga. Genom att ha en väl fungerad intern kommunikation så kan man förhindra många onödiga konflikter som kan uppstå i en miljö som kräver hög effektivitet. Vårt syfte med uppsatsen är att påvisa vikten av vad en god intern kommunikation innebär och hur en projektledare kan välja att förmedla sitt budskap till gruppen.För att ta reda på hur kommunikationen kan se ut har vi valt att genomföra en kvalitativ undersökning och det är den data som ligger till grund för vår analys.
