Studien undersöker hur lärare behandlar undervisningsinnehållet geometrisk likformighet, samt de möjliga dimensionerna av variation som öppnas. Studien genomfördes genom observation av fyra gymnasielärare, vilka undervisar i matematikkurs B (samhällsprogrammet). Observationerna kompletterades med två intervjuer. Vid bearbetning av det insamlade datamaterialet har variationsteorin använts som analysverktyg. Resultatet visar att eleverna fick erfara ett antal öppnade dimensioner av variation, som kan vara av betydelse för att skapa utmaningar för eleverna..

This essay is about how newly graduated teachers experience their first year in teaching. The main focus is linked to the theory about the pedagogy triangle of Bermuda. It involves two dimensions with six main aspects. The first dimension is the psychosocial-, including, ambition, demands and the possibility to achieve ambition and demands. The second dimension is the didactic-, including the what-, why- and how-qustions. The results of the study shows that teachers experience their first year in teaching different, depending primarly of the ascpets of the psychosocial dimension.

In this essay I discuss and analyse if we can witness any signs on regional dimension due to regional representation from our elected representatives in the five constituencies Malmö, Blekinge, Norrbotten, Uppsala and Stockholm. Two seperate terms of office between 1991-94 and 1998-2002 has been compared. In political science there has been much debate about the relationship between voters and their elected. By measuring each and everyone elected representatives in the work of produce introduced bills towards their own constitiency during both terms I have tried to see if there is an occurence of a regional dimension.The theory that´s been applied is based on geographical representation where one might aspect that central metropolitan areas and peripheral regions is somewhat over-represented in legislatures. By using a method of comparison between the five chosen constituencies and theirs elected representatives I have come the the conclusion that there is a weak tendency that this might be the case seen to a regional dimension perspective..

The gap between practise and theory is often described in negative words in teachers? professional lives. Learning study is a model for teachers´ professional development where a theoretical framework is used to enhance practice. The theoretical framework used by teachers in learning study is variation theory. In this study the research object is variation theory and the aim is to present how variation theory becomes a guiding principle to understand teaching and learning processes.

The aim of the study is to investigate reasoning about variation in learning, made by Waldorf, Freinet- and Bifrost pedagogues. The focal points are how the pedagogues reason about variation in learning and why they want to use variation. It is a qualitative study, and it is done through interviews with one Waldorf pedagogue, one Freinet pedagogue and one Bifrost pedagogue. The conversation with each pedagogue is complemented by literature that describes and discusses each pedagogue?s specific teaching method. The results of the study are linked to different theories and reasoning by scientists and professors.

Denna studie har vi gjort för att ta reda på hur lärare väljer att organisera arbetet i skolan, samt hur de anser att elevers behov av variation i undervisningen tillgodoses. I vår undersökning har vi använt oss av kvalitativa intervjuer. Vi har intervjuat lärare på olika skolor i två minder kommuner i Norrbotten och har i vår undersökning kommit fram till att variationen av undervisningen är begränsad och alla elever får inte komma till sin rätt. Större variation i undervisningen behövs för att alla elever ska ha samma chans att inhämta kunskap..

In this paper I attempt to analyze the ways the European Union defines its external borders in cross-border co-operation with its neighbours. The analysis is based on case study examining the founding components of a updated version of the Northern Dimension policy of the European Union.The analytical framework of the study is composed of three different perceptions on the cross-border co-operation; regionalisation, integration and flexible integration. I conclude that the model of cross-border co-operation laid by the Northern Dimension policy would have an impact on the EU's external border with Russia, making it more flexible and vague.As far as the geographical terms of the co-operation are concerned, they seem to shift from regional co-operation to greater emphasis the role of networks as basis for co-operation instead of traditional regions..

Syfte: Uppsatsen syfte är att ur ett konsumentperspektiv förklara huruvida det finns ett samband mellan konsumentens upplevelse av variationen och förekomsten av EMV inom ett sortiment. Teori En genomgång av befintlig teori rörande områdena konsumentupplevd variation, konsumentupplevd kvalite och EMVs inverkan på faktisk variation som har legat till grund för utformning av vår teoretiska referensram. Metod: För genomförandet av uppsatsen har vi ett deduktivt angreppssätt. Utifrån våra hypoteser har vi utfört en kvantitativ konsumentundersökning. Vidare har undersökningen utförts i två olika butiker med väldigt lika förutsättningar, förutom att EMV endast förekommer i den ena butiken.

Background: Men that have gone through treatment for prostate cancer may lose their sexuality as result of treatment. The sexual ability might symbolize manliness, despite age and sexual activities. Aim: The aim of the literature study was to describe; Influence on sexuality and the daily life for men with prostatecancer and their experience of informationneeds. Method: The material for the literature study was searched through databases; 13 scientific articles were selected and two articles through manual search, all 15 articles were examined. Result: Five categories were found in the result of the literature study; physical dimension, emotional/mental dimension, social/practical dimension and informationneeds.

One third of all Swedish people will suffer in cancer. Pain is a common symptom in cancer patients. The pain is subjective and includes several dimensions. The dimensions of pain are the physical, psychological, social and spiritual. This is a literature review and the aim with this study was to identify the pain experience in patients with cancer receiving palliative care.

Studier om elever i behov av särskilt stöd domineras av lärarperspektivet, få studier har ett elevperspektiv. Den här studiens syfte är att beskriva och förklara uppfattningar som elever i behov av särskilt stöd har av det särskilda stödet, vad det gäller vari problematiken ligger, stödåtgärdernas utformning generellt sett, det egna lärandet och på de specifika åtgärderna utvecklingssamtal och åtgärdsprogram. För att beskriva elevers uppfattningar har metoden i studien en fenomenografisk ansatts. Data har insamlats via intervjuer med 11 elever i grundskolans senare år. Resultatet visar att eleverna uppfattar särskilt stöd i tre dimensioner, individ dimension, gemensam dimension och yttre dimension. I individ dimensionen är elevernas uppfattningar fokuserade på individnivå, eleven har problem med ett eller flera skolämnen. Lärandet är inriktat på att nå målen för godkänt utan att reflektera över nyttan av kunskaper.

The aim of this qualitative study of service work in the private sector is to examine how the service worker experiences his/her work. There are three dimensions of the service workers experience in focus, and they are the base of my formulation of questions. The first dimension refers to how the service worker experiences the emotional labor demands from the employer. The second dimension concerns the relation between service worker and customer, from the view of the service worker. The third dimension problematizes how service workers experience efficiency.I have interviewed three call center customer workers and two hotel receptionists, using semi-structured interview technique.

I denna studie undersöks vilka möjliga dimensioner av variation som kan finnas i framställningen av lärandeobjektet geometriska talföljder och summor. Detta har undersökts genom observation av undervisning hos fem olika gymnasielärare. Observationerna transkriberades och analyserades utifrån ett variationsteoretiskt perspektiv. Resultatet av arbetet är ett antal formulerade dimensioner av variation, som kan användas för att planera och analysera undervisning rörande geometriska talföljder och summor..

In the year 2010 a transition will take place here in Sweden from the present rules how to dimension buildings in to the common rules with have been developed in Europe, the Eurocodes. Eurocode is the term for a collection standard that contains calculation rules in how to dimension constructions and buildings. They are developed by the European standardize committee.The purpose with this examination work is to get an insight of what changes this will contribute to, and how it will affect the dimensioning. Are there going to be any differences in the dimension you finally chose?To investigate these possible differences two constructions will be calculated first in the present Swedish rules, and then in the coming eurocodes.One of these two constructions will be build completely in steel, while the other will be build completely in concrete.
