Full textEtt av skolans viktigaste mål är att förbereda eleverna för ett demokratiskt samhälle där vi i allt högre grad förväntas göra medvetna val och fatta viktiga beslut. Många av dessa val och beslut avser naturvetenskapliga samhällsfrågor, och kursplanen för de naturorienterande ämnena betonar förmågan att använda naturvetenskapliga kunskaper för att ta ställning i sådana värdefrågor. Vårt syfte med studien är att ta reda på i vilken grad elever och lärare upplever att undervisningen i de naturvetenskapliga ämnena används till värdefrågor, och om de är nöjda med dagens undervisning i det perspektivet. En enkätundersökning genomfördes med elever i år 9 och deras lärare för att ta reda på deras attityder till NO-undervisningen. Den visade att både elever och lärare ansåg att tyngdpunkten ligger på att lära fakta, och de önskar mer av värdefrågor i den naturvetenskapliga undervisningen, flickorna i högre grad än pojkarna. Eleverna upplevde SO-undervisningen bättre avseende förhållandet mellan fakta och värdefrågor, och var också mer intresserade av dessa ämnen. Vi anser att en möjlig väg till ett större engagemang för naturvetenskap kan vara att oftare låta eleverna reflektera, ta ställning och argumentera i värdefrågor.
Andersson, Liza. "Målspråksanvändning i klassrummet - vision eller verklighet?" Thesis, Kristianstad University College, School of Teacher Education, 2008. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:hkr:diva-4794.
Full textSyftet med det här arbetet var att ta reda på hur mycket målspråk spansklärare använder i klassrummet samt att ta del av deras åsikter om målspråksanvändning. Med utgångspunkt i forskningen om målspråksanvändning samt vad som betonas i kursplanen för moderna språk (SKOLFS 2000:87) angående målspråksanvändning gjorde jag en empirisk undersökning med hjälp av kvalitativ metod. Två lärare som undervisar i spanska på gymnasienivå medverkar i undersökningen som består av fem observationer av deras undervisning i spanska steg 1 till steg 3, samt två intervjuer. Resultatet visar att lärarna använder målspråket framförallt vid språkrelaterade uppgifter, exempelvis vid genomgång av texter, medan modersmålet används för kommunikation med eleverna, för att ge instruktioner och information samt vid grammatikundervisning. Båda lärarna anser att målspråksanvändning i klassrummet är viktigt, men att målspråket inte kan användas uteslutande i alla situationer. De menar också att kontakten till eleverna är lättare att få om lärarna inte endast använder målspråket. Lärarna anser dock att det är genomförbart att använda målspråket i större utsträckning i de högre stegen.

In this thesis, I developed machine learning methods that would support tools for gaining health insights from social media images. On the one hand, I have helped create a dataset for food image segmentation and a segmentation network for this task, a task that is very relevant for understanding the nutritional content of food from images. I also explored the flip side of the issue, and helped design an interface that users can use to explore food recipes in machine learning-driven ways. On the other hand, I helped create a dataset and model for classifying types of disasters given images of natural or manmade disasters.

Full textSedan järnvägen anlades genom Skövde i mitten av 1800-talet har den agerat både barriär och katalysator för tillväxt och utveckling i Skövde, en stad med 50 000 invånare som idag har rollen som centralort i Skaraborg. Idag står det glesa och outvecklade området omkring Skövde Resecentrum inför storskalig utveckling med fokus på kontorsbyggnader och parkeringsgarage, vilket kommer förstärka järnvägens roll som barriär i staden. Med utgångspunkt i social hållbarhet och publikt liv föreslår projektet ett alternativ scenario genom att identifiera och injicera stadens befintliga kvaliteér i området. Resultatet är en alternativ vision bestående av fem publika platser med skiftande karaktärer hämtade från staden. Projektet ifrågasätter även vad ett stationsområde behöver och kan vara, och vad som verkligen sätter en stad på kartan.

Full textThe purpose of this work is to explain how companies can think about creating, implementing and realizing business visions. I have conducted a literature study on the concept of vision showing that it is not clear what a vision means and how the process looks from idea to reality. By compiling previous research on the subject and investigate why companies succeed or fail with their visions I saw a connection and an approach on working with visions that I called the SIR process, which is based on three phases how visions can be created, implemented and realized in companies. To see how the process can help companies to work towards visions, I used the SIR-process on a qualitative case study conducted on employees at different levels within one and the same company. The interviews show that there is a lack of knowledge about what the concept of vision is and that all employees relate differently to the company's vision. The results show that there is a difference in how the company works with different visions within the same company. It also appears that working towards visions is a multi-phase process that can contribute to common goals and a direction to move against. One learning is that using the SIR-process, companies with or without an existing vision may get a guidance on how to create, implement and realize their business visions.Keywords: Vision, Create, Implement, Realize

Full textDenna uppsats handlar om den svenska Försvarsmaktens jämställdhetsmål som har satts upp för att främja jämställdheten och på sikt få in fler kvinnor i organisationen. Mer specifikt handlar uppsatsen om hur kvinnorna inom Försvarsmakten anser att dessa jämställdhetsmål efterlevs. Uppsatsen baserar sig på intervjuer med tre kvinnliga yrkesofficerare som får ge sin syn på livet i och runt det militära samt på försvarets jämställdhetsarbete och hur det påverkar dem. Resultaten jag kommer fram till i denna uppsats är att Försvarsmakten för dessa tre kvinnor är en bra arbetsplats för dem, oavsett deras individuella livssituationer, men att det fortfarande finns en hel del att jobba på vad gäller jämställdhetsmålen.
This thesis is about the Swedish armed forces and the equality goals which have been established to give equal opportunities between the sexes and to encourage more women to join the armed forces. More specifically this study is about the women of the armed forces and whether they believe that these equality goals have been achieved or not. The thesis is based on interviews with three female officers employed by the Swedish armed forces. They answered questions regarding their experiences of the equality goals and about their day to day life regarding their job as well as questions about their social life. The conclusion of this thesis is that the armed forces in general seem to be good employer regarding equality, regardless of the women’s individual lifestyles, but that there is still work to do regarding the equality between the sexes.

Syftet med detta arbete är att undersöka om individintegrerade elever är en del av helheten i klassen sett ur ett socialt perspektiv.
Vi har använt oss av en kvalitativ metod, det vill säga att vi har gjort en intervjuundersökning som ligger till grund för resultatet och diskussionen.
Vi har använt oss av teoretikern Vygotskij samt den socialpsykologiska teorin.
I resultatet har vi kommit fram till slutsatser som pekar mot att den individintegrerade eleven inte är en del av helheten i klassen sett ur ett socialt perspektiv. Det framkommer i resultatet att lärarna anser att de behöver mer resurser i sitt arbete med individintegrerade elever för att kunna främja den sociala gemenskapen.

Full textSe estudian estereotipos y prejuicios hacia distintos grupos étnicos que presentan los habitantes de una zona de pobreza extrema en el Callao, Perú. Se desarrollo un diseño mixto de investigación con una fase cuantitativa donde se aplicaron encuestas (n = 115) y una cualitativa donde se realizaron 4 grupos focales (n = 30). Los resultados muestran representaciones estereotípicas que comprenden grupos de alto (blancos) y bajo estatus (andinos, amazónicos y afroperuanos). Los grupos evaluados son representados a través de contenidos estereotipos ambivalentes. Los blancos son percibidos como instrumentales, corruptos y poco patriotas, mientras que los de bajo estatus como poco instrumentales pero cálidos y simpáticos. Comparando estos resultados con los obtenidos por Espinosa, Calderón, Guimac & Burga (2007), se observa que las representaciones estereotípicas de los participantes de sectores pobres son estructuralmente similares a las de personas de sectores medios. Sin embargo, el prejuicio asignado a grupos de alto estatus resulta mayor en la muestra de pobreza extrema, ya que se atribuye a sus miembros practicas discriminatorias y excluyentes que afectan a los grupos de bajo estatus.

Full textStockholm is a city that is constantly growing. In line with the population increase, there has been increased demand for housing and expanded community service, skills, capital and investments etc.The rapid increase in population brings challenges in terms of urban planning and growing social and economic differences between districts in Stockholm. Segregation and income distribution have increased, and residents in Stockholm also tend to live in socio-economically homogeneous areas. Inorder for all the city's actors to work towards the same goal, the City of Stockholm has developed avision that will be fulfilled by the year 2040. The goal is for Stockholm to become a big city that isversatile, sustainably growing and dynamic as well as smart and innovative. Hagastaden is considered to be an important part of the city's realization of the vision. The new city will be formed by connecting Solna and Stockholm. The goal is to develop the city into an inclusive neighborhood for people in different stages of life, with different conditions, needs and interests. A challenge with the project is mentioned to be the difficulty to include all socio-economic groups in the city, as newly-manufactured housing is relatively expensive. This may contribute to increased social gaps, unequal life chances, exclusion and reduced social cohesion in the society. This development is not good for neither individuals nor for society at large. The purpose of this bachelor's thesis has been to, through qualitative literature studies and interviews,examine whether Hagastaden contributes to further growing social and economic differences in Stockholm and whether the housing construction in the city contributes to a more socially inclusiveand sustainable city. We have based on the goals that have been set for Vision 2040 and compared to what the project contributes to society. The results showed that it has been difficult to include socio-economic groups when it comes to housing. On the other hand, they are included by making the district accessible to anyone and easy to navigate through. Hagastaden has succeeded in becoming an innovative, versatile and experience-rich city. There is a mix of housing supply, but since the city only consists of newly-manufactured housings, low-income earners cannot afford to move there. It is acknowledged to be a challenge to include the socio-economic group, but it is also pointed out that the current housing policy is the reason why the situation is as it is today.

Full textThe purpose of our study is to examine the case managers reasoning and descriptions of empowerment as a method in their social work from a comprehensively perspective including family members. To manage with this purpose we interviewed two case managers, two clients with mental disabilities and five family members. We have come to the conclusion that the case managers works more consist of advocacy than empowerment. Despite that we have found that the long term goal for the case mangers work is to give the clients tools for empowerment. Our results also show that the clients feel that they have gained and increased their ability to do things by themselves and to be a part of the community. The family members feel that they have been empowered because of that the case managers have given them advises of how they can support the clients in a better way, which have released them from family burdens.

Leadership is a phenomenon studied in all cultures (Murdock, 1967), yet representation in the diversity of influential leaders is often limited (Moon, 1996). In order to understand the full breadth of leadership scholarship, it is essential that research focuses on how leadership is both enacted and communicated in underrepresented groups. A group that is currently facing marginalization from dominant culture is the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) community. With no national anti-discrimination law in place to protect the individuals belonging to this community (American Civil Liberties Union, 2016) it is vital to understand how leaders within this marginalized group are motivating others to fight to enact change. While influential organizations like The Human Rights Campaign (HRC) are fighting for social justice on a national level, it is important to understand how local organizations are engaging in communicative leadership to motivate others to enact change in their own community. This study seeks to understand how leadership is communicated within a local LGBT rights organization (given the pseudonym the Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Campaign, or LGBTC) and to identify the ways LGBT leaders motivate others to enact social change. Using ethnographic methodology, the researcher observed four monthly board meetings held by this group (lasting approximately an hour and a half each) and conducted a focus-group interview where the participants confirmed observations and answered follow-up questions from the ethnographic observations. A qualitative thematic analysis revealed two common themes: the first theme, cohesive communication, was exemplified through organizational procedures that allowed for collective discussion and expression of individuality by emphasizing and depending on group members’ personal expertise. The second theme, proactive communication, emerged through group members’ communication to evoke tenacious defense strategies to counter the opposition and engage in outreach with external organizations. These leadership communication behaviors resulted in two critical implications on the theoretical and practical levels. In regards to the theoretical implications, LGBT leaders, who have been typically characterized as predominantly transformational, were found to enact leadership outside of that typology, actually engaging in relational styles through shared leadership, communicating in a way that relies on interaction and emotional expression. On a practical level, other marginalized groups could benefit from inclusivity, or the mode of collective leadership this particular LGBT Rights Group engaged in. By including multiple voices and having a variety of minority representation, the LGBTC was able to successfully motivate community change. Other marginalized groups experiencing social injustice may be able to motivate others to enact change by adopting this mode of collective communication through shared leadership.

Full textA sociedade atual demonstra, em relaÃÃo ao sÃculo passado, uma maior preocupaÃÃo com a responsabilidade social e corporativa em geral, e as organizaÃÃes privadas, para atender Ãs demandas coercivas e de competitividade, nÃo ficam fora desse atual momento. Diante desse cenÃrio, o trabalho proposto, classificado como exploratÃrio, pesquisa de campo e descritivo, buscou conhecer o cenÃrio corporativo de indÃstrias localizadas no Brasil, de setores especÃficos, do ponto de vista de suas adoÃÃes prÃticas de Responsabilidade Social Corporativa. Para essa anÃlise, foi necessÃrio desenvolver uma pesquisa de natureza quantitativa, atravÃs de uma survey. O instrumento desenvolvido foi um questionÃrio estruturado construÃdo pela autora a partir da exploraÃÃo bibliogrÃfica, tendo como base a temÃtica Responsabilidade Social Corporativa e Stakeholders, o qual foi analisado à luz da estatÃstica, atravÃs do software SPSS. Esse instrumento permite avaliar a adoÃÃo de prÃticas de RSC das organizaÃÃes a partir de trÃs perspectivas: a da interaÃÃo da organizaÃÃo com os atores e assuntos internos à mesma; a da interaÃÃo da organizaÃÃo com os atores externos e, por fim, a da interaÃÃo da organizaÃÃo com a perspectiva ambiental na qual està inserida. A survey foi viabilizada com o questionÃrio fechado, onde as respostas deveriam ser marcadas numa escala Likert de cinco pontos, enviado a 246 indÃstrias que fabricam itens de diferentes segmentos (TÃxtil e Moda, EletrÃnico, SaÃde, Higiene e Beleza, Casa, Lazer e Brinquedos, e Alimentos) os quais sÃo comercializados no Varejo de Departamentos do Brasil. AlÃm disso, os stakeholders que estÃo diretamente ligados Ãs indÃstrias respondentes foram abordados em dois agrupamentos de questÃes, onde no primeiro buscou-se identificar a pressÃo de cada um deles do ponto de vista dos seus direcionamentos para que as prÃticas de RSC sejam uma realidade na indÃstria e, o segundo, buscou identificar a percepÃÃo das indÃstrias com relaÃÃo à forÃa do ambiente de alguns dos paÃses listados quanto Ãs suas preocupaÃÃes e, com isso, pressÃes visando a efetivaÃÃo da RSC. A pesquisa revelou que os resultados estÃo alinhados com o material teÃrico explorado e indica, a partir da taxa de retorno dos respondentes de 58,13%, que o setor de EletrÃnicos apresenta maior nÃmero de adoÃÃo das prÃticas levantadas dentre os cinco setores explorados. AlÃm disso, apontou que o stakeholder que mais pressiona a indÃstria a desenvolver aÃÃes responsÃveis à a MÃdia, seguido pelo Governo, justificado teoricamente pela preocupaÃÃo das organizaÃÃes em serem obedientes Ãs regras impostas pelos poderes pÃblicos ou pela preocupaÃÃo de manter uma boa imagem de empresa responsÃvel e, com isso, manter-se competitiva. AlÃm disso, constatou-se que hà um movimento de desenvolvimento de responsabilidades corporativas voltadas para o ambiente interno das organizaÃÃes, onde as preocupaÃÃes com os trabalhadores e com a qualidade na produÃÃo apresentam-se como prioritÃrias dentre as aÃÃes desenvolvidas, diferentemente das preocupaÃÃes com os agentes externos e meio ambiente. Por outro lado, sabe-se, a partir das interaÃÃes com os diversos respondentes e pelas revisÃes teÃricas, que a RSC està muito longe de ser uma realidade ideal no ambiente institucional brasileiro, sendo necessÃrio um maior envolvimento dos importantes stakeholders, como os consumidores, por exemplo, que possuem um grande poder de pressionar as organizaÃÃes a desenvolverem diferentes tipos de posturas responsÃveis mas que desconhecem ou nÃo utilizam-se deste poder.

Species-specific differences in visual acuity have been demonstrated across species of cichlids differing in social and habitat complexity. What is the role of plasticity? A visual acuity assay on two species of fish reared in different habitat and social complexity was used to study brain plasticity in Xenotilapia flavipinnis and Asprotilapia leptura juveniles. The X. flavipinnis lives in sandy habitats and schools as juveniles. These fry were raised in an impoverished social environment in one case and an enriched habitat environment in another. The A. leptura lives in rocky habitats naturally. These fry were raised in an impoverished habitat environment. All conditions were compared to control groups with natural social and habitat conditions. I found that a change in social complexity had a plastic effect on visual acuity but a change in habitat complexity in both cases did not

Full textThe topic of Corporate Social Responsibility has been largely discussed. Thus, it is important to know how this issue is being discussed in undergraduate classes of Business Administration. The purpose of this study was to explore the student’s vision of CSR and their view about the teaching of CSR in undergraduate courses. Thirty Administration students of Rio de Janeiro were interviewed. The results showed that the respondents are concerned about this issue, since they consider that it is important for the practice of Administration. Some respondents said that the space given to CSR in the university is inadequate and, thus, it should be greater. They also said that the approach could be improved, since sometimes it is considered a superficial approach, although the content is correct. Many respondents learned more about it out of university, such as in magazines, newspapers, or at work. Many respondents had a more restricted view about the definition of CSR. The majority addressed only a few dimensions of it, showing little knowledge about it. Some respondents have doubts about CSR, especially basic questions, concerning the concept of the theme. Others have also showed doubts regarding the practice of CSR. Many respondents believe that the university where they study is not able to train socially responsible managers, since the theme is not much discussed. Moreover, it was observed that those who had experience in the area were more secure during the interviews; however, there were few respondents who had used CSR in practice.
