Patientrörlighetsdirektivets inverkan på svenska patienters möjlighet till gränsöverskridande vård

har förutsättningarna för hälso- och sjukvård i annat EU/EES-land förändrats sedan direktivets införande i svensk lagstiftning?

Most of my 16 students show a negative attitude towards mathematics and have difficulty understanding why they need mathematics to work as cooks. Their lack of knowledge has a negative effect on their work in the kitchen because they cannot master relatively simple mathematical solutions. The purpose of this study is to examine if an integrated working method of the subjects mathematics and cooking can change students? attitude towards mathematics and increase their understanding of the value of it in restaurant work. An integrated working method means to integrate the core subjects with programme specific subjects and that teaching is directed towards the main features of the vocational programme in order to create a holistic view.A theory of action research has been applied in this study, aiming to change something perceived as problematic through combining theory and practice in the cooking subject. Students? thoughts on the method have been collected using a questionnaire.This study shows that students perceive the method as being more positive than traditional teaching which makes mathematics more fun. Approximately 50% of the students say that the method has changed their view of mathematics positively and 50% would consider working more according to this method. However, only three students think the method has increased their understanding of the importance of mathematics for their future profession.KeywordsIntegrated, mathematic, cooking, teaching methods
