Our overarching research question is as follows: to which extent, how, and for what reasons do children's and youth librarians mediate non-fiction? We have chosen to limit our study to the practice of booktalking. In order to answer questions on extent we
I många länder runt om i världen finns arbetsterapeuter anställda inom skolverksamheten. Där de ger stöd/handledning till läraren men också insatser som riktas direkt till barnet. Med bakgrund till detta ville vi ta reda på utifrån ett arbetsterapeutiskt perspektiv om klasslärarna i årskurs 4-6 får stöd och handledning gällande barn med inlärningssvårigheter i skolaktiviteter samt vilka insatser s
Frågan om skatteavdrag för hushållsnära tjänster har under två decennier debatterats i Sverige. År 2007 genomförde den nytillträdda borgerliga regeringen en sådan reform, delvis med argumentationen att det skulle leda till ökad jämställdhet mellan kvinnor och män. Med hjälp av ideologikritisk metod undersöker uppsatsen vilka underliggande föreställningar om jämställdhet och vilka föreställningar o

Uppsatsen syftar till att applicera genusvetenskapliga problematiseringar, teorier och metoder på ett juridiskt material för att undersöka vilka aspekter som kommer till ytan. Som material används domen i ett mord med homofoba motiv där provokations- bedömningen ledde till rubriceringen dråp och en artikel av professor Per Ole Träskman som kritiserar domen som diskriminerande. Den teoretiska grund
The purpose of our paper was to understand the motivators that kept the social workers within the profession. Social workers' have a profession that, to the greatest extent, means high working load and difficult problematic issues.

I en tid då allt fler röster höjs angående FN:s ineffektivitet har vi valt att undersöka hur organisationen behandlar medlingsuppdrag i mellanstatliga konflikter. Utifrån den pågående konflikten på Cypern och kriget mellan Iran och Irak på 1980-talet ser vi hur FN som tredje part har agerat dels utifrån ett systemperspektiv och dels på medlingsnivå. De valda konflikterna grundar sig i liknande frå

In Sweden, energy utilities face the double challenge of complying with the Kyoto protocol targets and increasing renewable energy capacity to make use of the electricity certificates system.

The use of a label for locally produced products is seen as a good way of promoting these products in Söderslätt and, thereby, promoting regional development. The only common meaning of the concept ?local? is the reference to a geographical area, even though the size of the area differs. Local products are associated with characteristics such as environment, ethics, health, quality and support of
Deponering är en metod som sedan länge använts för att behandla avfall. Metoden är dock kopplad till en rad miljöpåverkande faktorer, varav produktion av lakvatten är en. I lakvattnet finns bland annat lösta näringsämnen och metaller och dessa kan ge negativ påverkan på ekosystem om de sprids i miljön. Det här examensarbetet syftar till att besvara frågan om metaller i lakvatten kan retarderas ge
I denna uppsats har jag fokuserat på konflikter och lärande. Konflikter är för oss oftast kopplat till något negativt och på så sätt kan det kännas jobbigt att sättas i situationer som känns ohanterbara och obehagliga. Jag har i en litteraturstudie försökt analysera konflikter ur ett mer positivt perspektiv. Mitt syfte har varit att undersöka hur konflikter kan leda till lärande och utveckling. Fö
