Friluftsliv i stadsmiljö
Syftet med detta examensarbete är att undersöka ifall det är möjligt att bedriva undervisning i friluftsliv enligt Skolverkets kursplaner på ordinarie lektionstid i ämnet idrott och hälsa på högstadieskolor i urban miljö. För att undersöka detta har ett lektionsupplägg planerats och genomförts i form av en interventionsstudie för att sedan utvärderas med hjälp av aktionsforskning och fokusgruppintervju. Frågeställningarna som undersökningen sökt svar på är ifall det är möjligt att arbeta med friluftsliv på ordinarie lektionstid, samt ifall skolans direkta närmiljö är tillräcklig för att bedriva undervisning inom friluftsliv enligt kursplanernas krav, eller om det krävs att man lämnar den urbana miljön.
Empirin som samlats in har analyserats och diskuterats utifrån tre lärandeteorier vilka ligger till grund för utomhuspedagogiken. Sociokulturellt perspektiv, konstruktivistiskt perspektiv samt variationsteori är de teorier som använts vid såväl planering av interventionsstudien som vid analysen av huruvida kursplanens delar om friluftsliv behandlats tillräckligt väl.
Studien är av kvalitativ art och eftersom undersökningen endast är gjord med en klass i årskurs nio och enbart på en skola så är det inte möjligt att generalisera resultaten så att de blir allmänt giltiga.

Automatiska Värderingssystem - En hjälp för Fastighetsmäklaren?
Computers and business systems are used more frequently in a world where IT gradually is taking over. This is also true when it comes to the real estate valuation process where actors on the Swedish real estate market are using automatic valuation systems for real estate appraisal. But the real estate agents have not yet seen the charm in using these automatic valuation systems for real estate appraisal. Can the real estate agents also use the automatic valuation systems? We developed our three main subjects: the valuation process, an automatic valuation system and the real estate market with assistance from scientific articles.
Anestesiologisk omvårdnad av patient med obesitas
ABSTRACTBackground: Obesity and overweight are health issues that more than every tenth person around the world suffers from and the number of individuals with BMI >30 is every growing. As a result, more patients that are subjects to anesthesia will have an increased BMI. Changes in respiration, airway anatomy, altered drug metabolism and multiple physiological changes in the body makes general anesthesia, of the patient with obesity, an anesthesiological challenge.Purpose: The aim of this study is to identify the specific anesthesiological nursing care of the patient with a BMI >30, undergoing general anesthesia.Method: A research plan is created and to test its credibility, a pilotstudy of 15 surveys in two surgical departments will be conducted. This study has a qualitative inductive design and the data collected through semistructured questionnaires. The result was analyzed using qualitative content analysis.Result: The result showed a clear focus on three main areas; airway management, pharmaceuticals and positioning of the patient.

Vårt liv, vår fritid, våra förebilder, vår framtid och där vi bor
Few studies enlighten the problem associated with the dialectical relationship between adults and adolescents and how that affects the construction of identity for adolescent?s, in relation to two areas that are closely bordering to each other but differs socioeconomically whereas one area is much weaker on resources than the other. These two areas is Högberget and Haganäs, which are situated in a larger city in Sweden.For us to be able to enlighten this problem we have chosen to use an inductive research approach so that we can explain how adolescents construct their identity and how the organized spare time, in addition with the influence of adults, impacts on adolescents construction of their identity.Therefore we have used interviews as method, both group and individual, so it can regulate which theories that influence our study. The two theories that wires through the entire study are firstly Peter L. Bergman and Thomas Luckmanns theory on social construction where the idea is that the human being is an active social being that constructs its own reality.
Den tillgängliga stationen : Gestaltning av en stationsmiljö på basis av tillgänglighet
This report is about accessibility in a station environment. Studies have been made about how an accessible building should be designed. Accessibility is an important issue when striving for a society with equality as the foundation. Sweden is one of the most accessible countries when speaking about the built environment. A result of prosperity and a well-managed democracy.
Minskad utbredning av apollofjäril, Parnassius apollo, i södra Stockholms län : En studie av möjliga faktorer utifrån artens habitatkrav
The Apollo butterfly, Parnassius apollo, is categorized as Near Threatened (NT) in IUCN Red List. Today in Sweden it is found only in strongly fragmentized populations. In the county of Stockholm, P. apollo exists exclusively in some islands of the archipelago and with one mainland population in Stora Vika. This study has the purpose of expanding the knowledge of the local conditions for the butterfly in the south parts of the county of Stockholm and thereby contributes to a sustainable land management that can preserve the Apollo butterfly.A comparative study was done between areas where the butterfly today have: a stable population (Stora Vika, Utö and Ålö), has disappeared (Muskö and Yxlö) or is strongly declining (north part of Ornö).

Grönstrukturplanering i det skånska slättlandskapet?
The ongoing change that characterizes the landscape as a result of the development of the society as a wholeis the basis for this thesis. Even though the Scanian landscape still is dominated by arable land, other valuessuch as biological diversity, cultural heritage and economical aspects, has all been ascribed the landscape asmore and more important factors and in some respects, compete with the farming industry about the right tothe landscape. Our demand of more and more space, will of course also affect the landscape. Huge amountof land are used to build external malls and single-family houses, which gives rise to an increasing need foran extended transport system that also is land consuming.It all comes down to: how the municipalities deal with non built areas - the green structure. Do themunicipalities have separate programs describing their vision and objectives concerning the green structure?Literature studies, an inventory made of the municipality programs in the west and south west of Scaniaand interviews with employees at the municipalities clarifies the use of the green structure concept, both intheory and in practice.The green structure concept seems to be derived from the environmental debate.
Prim, Stadsförnyelse i Barcelona

Urban kannibalism : relationen mellan människa och produktionslandskap
Samtidens jordbruk står inför stora utmaningar för att kunna tillgodose världens befolkning med mat. Varje hektar odlingsbar mark kan därför komma att spela en viktig roll i framtiden. Studien visar att dagens relation mellan människa och produktionslandskapet är svag. Detta får konsekvenser för allt ifrån hur vi hanterar det produktiva landskapet i dagens planering till konsumtionsmönster på individnivå. I förlängningen innebär detta att vi äventyrar vårt produktionslandskap som en viktig resurs för framtida matförsörjning.
Idag försvinner Skånes åkrar med en rasande fart och exploateringstakten på den bördiga myllan har ökat drastiskt under de senaste åren.
