Through out this the clients have right to be assessed both equally and individually. How is this done? The purpose of this paper was to examine the effect of the organisation referred to the social workers ability to discretion and the
Intern företagsutbildning via e-learning är ett aktuellt ämne, framförallt eftersom företagen ser det som en chans att bli effektivare och spara pengar. Av de företagsanpassade utbildningsapplikationer som finns på marknaden idag, är nästan samtliga skapta för att förklara för användarna (kursdeltagarna) hur saker och ting ska fungera. Deras stora svaghet ligger dock i att förklara och förmedla va
The aim of our thesis was to describe how the connection between co-dependent relatives and the alcohol-dependent influences the family into changes in their teamwork. Our purpose was also to answer the following questions: How is it living with an alcoholic? Are there any differences in how men and women feel and behave in their relationship with an alcoholic? Are factors like cultural belonging
Greek islands face a series of problems that can put their sustainability at risk. Overexploitation of natural resources, limited waste and wastewater management practices, and energy shortage are such problems. Lack of cyclic behaviour in resource flows is a factor tightly linked to these problems. Here, the concept of industrial symbiosis appears to offer an important potential in addressing som
Syftet med denna uppsats blir att ta reda på hur reformatorn Olaus Petri uttryckte sin främlingsfientlighet och mot vem eller vilka den riktades. Med främlingsfientlighet menas i denna uppsats inte bara rädsla för utlänningar utan också rädsla för det som var annorlunda trots att det betecknades som svenskt. Reformationen var inte bara en religiös och andlig företeelse. Den gjorde också anspråk på
Improvement of energy efficiency is seen to have an unexplored potential in relation to industrial energy users. Swedish manufacturing industries and their perception of electrical energy usage at production facilities are at the centre of this thesis. Reasons and approaches towards the monitoring of electrical energy at the operational level are discussed from a number of angles. The research eff
Israel-Palestina konflikten är en av de mest debatterade konflikterna i massmedia. Konflikten bevakas världen över och har varit studieobjekt för många forskare. I denna uppsats undersöks framställandet av sexdagarskriget 1967 och intifadans inledningsfas 1987 i Dagens Nyheter. Materialet analyseras utifrån Norman Faircloughs tredimensionella modell som sedan placeras i en större samhällig kontex
Uppsatsen handlar om cineliteracy; att öka sin kompetens att tillgodogöra sig rörliga bilder. Jag undersöker huruvida brittiska filminstitutets femstegsmetod är en fungerande modell för att stimulera elevernas lärandeprocess av komplex film. Som exempel använder jag mig av Jacques Tatis film Play Time.
Industrial Symbiosis (IS) is a tool that may facilitate coordination of the factors necessary to improve resource use efficiency in regional levels. This thesis studies the potential of developing an IS network in rural Portugal, that could support the competitiveness of the local companies, whilst also improving their own and the regions environmental profile. The research is based on a hybrid o
The representation of expressivity of sound and colour in functional information is still a fairly unexplored field. Alternative ways of representing functional information are necessary when providing feedback in technical environments as homes, cars, nuclear power plants, and intensive care. One possible solution could be non-verbal representation of expressivity in functional information using
Trauma is a leading cause of death. There is a great need for training of human factors such as communication and teamwork in trauma teams. The use of simulation in medical education is increasing, and together with learning strategies based on experiential learning theory, it can be a powerful tool in team training. The aviation-based concept of crew resource management, CRM, in which framework c
Suicidology deals a lot with taking into consideration significant symptoms, risk factors and establishing causal relationships which inevitably are very important for suicide prevention. But do we understand the suicide attempters better thereby? The aim with the study is to elucidate the meaning of the lived suicidal experience that is expressed by participants on an Internet forum. Ten particip
The present thesis closer examines what has come to be known as al-Qaida, partly from what al-Qaida is considered to be, partly from the consequences a certain picture of al-Qaida might give rise to. Between 1988-2001 most of this thesis sources refers to al-Qaida as a small, organized core group with some degree of cell structure. From 1991 to present days, many of the sources enlarge the picture
The public library is an institution that throughout history has been associated with a number of social codes, that seem to be deeply rooted in the minds of the public. These codes regulates how users act and interact in the library environment and as a library user you have to obtain knowledge about these social codes. This master's thesis aims at studying how these codes are transferred
16,5 procent eller 1,2 millioner av Israels medborgare är muslimer. Detta utgör 83 procent av den totala arabiska befolkningen i Israel. Därmed är Israel det enda landet i Mellanöstern där muslimer lever som minoritet. Samtidigt är Israel en regional minoritet huvudsakligen av två skäl. För det första består landet av en judisk majoritet och ser sig som en judisk demokrati. För det andra är det en
Abstract The main influences on growing conditions in pastures and hayfields are grazing and mowing, which regulate the species struggle for space and resources. If the management ceases, this will contribute to a change of the vegetation. A succession starts where the plant cover gradually will change according to a specific pattern. After some time a few competitive species, previously disfavou
The purpose of this master thesis is to investigate how nearby forests affect the energy production in wind turbines. To reach the purpose a case study is performed on three wind turbines sited on a field in a north-south line at Andersfält in the municipality of Halmstad, Sweden. Approximately 100 meters south of the southern wind turbine a forest is situated. The case study is divided into three
The focus of this thesis is a specific part of Swedish library policy called library plans. A library plan is a political document created with the purpose of constituting a platform for co-operation between different library systems within a municipality, e.g. through determining and analysing the needs for library activities within municipalities in Sweden. This thesis´ aim is to investigate wh
Studien har sin utgångspunkt i en trend som blivit allt mer synlig under den senaste tiden; människor tar ett personligt ansvar för globala problem. Studiens syfte är därför att undersöka hur medvetna människor ser på frågan om personligt ansvar vad gäller globala problem? Studien är gjord som en fallstudie och undersökningsenheten, eller fallet, är deltagare på kursen Hållbar utveckling. Metoden
