The purpose of this thesis is to gain insight into educators? views and work with circle Time in preschool. To find out, I have referred to the following questions: How is your circle Time performed in preschool? What objectives have teachers with the circle Time? What impact has your circle Time for the children in preschool?I have chosen to carry out qualitative interviews with three preschool teachers. After the interviews, I compared the educators? response to previous research.The survey shows that the circle Time is one of the day´s highlights for preschool children.

This master thesis in economics discusses the Time use of today as well as the observed trends in Time use over the last 20 years in Sweden. This is done by analysing Time-use and consumption data at the microeconomic level, i.e. by explaining individual behaviour given the economic assumption of a rational behaviour. We reach the conclusion that the value of Time is an important explanatory variable concerning the rationality in that Time is used differently by different individuals and in the changed use of Time. Furthermore, other variables such as social norms and the process benefit of a certain activity, i.e.

The purpose of this study is to examine how employees in an organization using flexible work practices, experience that passive face Time influences the evaluated of them. Further, the study aims to understand to what extent that perception of passive face Time motivates the employees to spend more Time at the office than is necessary for their work situations. The study concludes that employees in general perceive that passive face Time does influence how they are evaluated and that this perception motivates employees that are relatively newly employed by the company to spend more Time at office..

This thesis examines why working Time preferences differ between workers and nations, and explains the effect of working Time regulation and working Time flexibility on negotiating work-life balance. In five separate sections the following working Time issues are examined: the number of hours worked by workers in Europe; factors affecting individual working Time preferences; how working Time preferences are negotiated in the national industrial relations systems of Sweden, France and the United Kingdom; how the institutions of the European Union have influenced working Time negotiations through the Working Time Directive; and the benefits and practices available to organisations implementing working Time flexibility. Broadly this paper views working Time preferences as being a highly personal and influenced by factors such as wages, taxation, culture (national and workplace) and non-work responsibilities. It is argued that negotiating a preferred working Time pattern is essential to achieving work-life balance and when such a balance is achieved, workers are more healthy, motivated and committed to their employer. Essentially this provides an incentive for businesses to voluntarily implement working Time flexibility beyond the regulatory standards..

During the winter 2011 Isaksson and Andersson did a Time budget study on Nordens Ark?s Przewalskis horses during dayTime when there were visitors and caretakers in the park. This Time budget study was made during dayTime and when there were no visitors or caretakers in the park. The horses where observed in the morning (5.30-6.30 am) and in the evening (5.45-6.45 pm) during four days. In addition to a Time budget, the horses? positions in the enclosure were registered.

The views on and the knowledge of the introduction of iron to Scandinavia have change by the history of archaeology. The results and discussions are put in the context of Time and how that Time is reflected in their work and texts. This limits that scholars put up to orientate themselves conceal the complex reality. The limits are changing all the Time and is dependent of Time and person..

The essential thing about breaks has been in relation to Time, body, movement, force and room during my examination. Through conversations high-school students from two schools have taken part in this study. The examination is based on conversations with the students and has focused on students? experiences of breaks, and is also carried through by the method of phenomenology. The results of my studie show that students - during their breaks - experience a feeling of allways heading for something and also that Time seem to exist in three levels: filled Time, non-filled Time and flow regarding of Time.

One purpose of our study was to investigate if equality in work Time and parental leave in a relationship affect the Time that parents spend with their children. Our first hypothesis was that increased equality in work Time and parental leave leads to a reduction of the parents? total Time with their children, ie the children spend more hours in pre-school and begin pre-school earlier. In order to test our hypothesis, we investigated the relationship between the woman?s and the man?s work Time and parental leave and the Time that the children spend in pre-school as well as at what age they began pre-school by using two surveys.Our study showed a significant coherence between both working women?s work Time and the children?s Time in pre-school as well as women?s parental leave and the children?s age at start in pre-school.

This work is an exploration of a method and how to find balance between it and its contents. One part consists of a technical study on how to use UV light to yellow distinct surfaces on paper and the other is about how to find use of the method. The common denominator is determined as the consequence of the relationship between light and Time. The result is three images that shows various traces of Time with Time as a graphic expression..

Purpose: We wish to gain a deep knowledge about product development processes in relation to the aspect of Time in companies in highly technological and rapidly changing markets. The purpose is to establish how organizations better can employ Time as a resource to make the product development process more efficient. Conclusions: Information we gathered from theory and primary data show that information flow, synchronization and Time profit when seeing Time in three dimensions are factors which should be reflected in the architecture of a product development process. To illustrate our findings, we decided to create a model..

This thesis aims to analyse a Time series containing the annual accumulation rate of minerogenic matter in the lake Kassjo?n. First there is a theoretical survey of some frequently used tools for the analysis of Time series in the Time domain and in the frequency domain. This survey is followed by a simulation study that illustrates how the theoretical tools work in practice. After this, the Time series "toolbox" is used to analyse the Time series from Kassjo?n (5701 data points).

Today's labor market is characterized by flexibility. This applies to organizations, forms of employment and working Time. Unregulated working Time is such an adaptation and the main subject of this essay. The purpose of this study was to investigate the conditions that underpin unregulated working Time, in relation to the Swedish legislation and to EU legislation. The intention has been to investigate the work environment impacts of unregulated working Time, and what differences there are from a gender perspective.The conclusion is that workers who enter into agreements for unregulated working Time have significantly different terms from traditional workers.

The purpose of this Masters thesis is to investigate what attributes were used in story-Time activities, why attributes were used in story-Time activities and what functions they have. The study is based on qualitative methods in the form of a literature studies, observations and interviews. The interviews were undertaken with two storytellers from the same public library. The story-Time activities were adapted for children from three to six years of age. The study suggested that there was a connection between story-Time activities and a social and cultural perspective.
