The Swedish Democrats Ideological Foundation and Affiliation : An Idea- and Ideology Analysis of the Swedish Democrats Principle Program 2011 and Election Manifesto 2014

Ujkani, Venera January 2017 (has links)
Since the Swedish Democrats established in 1988, debates and discussions have occurred regarding the party's ideological foundation and affiliation. This study is based primarily on a qualitative textual analysis, an idea- and ideology analysis and ideal types. The study's purpose is to discover which of the following political ideas and ideologies; fascism, populism, conservatism and socialism are most prominent in the Swedish Democrats election manifesto (2014) respectively principle program (2011). At my disposal, the study consists of two research questions; To what extent are there general features of socialism, populism, fascism and conservatism in the Swedish Democrats principle program respectively election manifesto? Which ideology is more prominent in the principle program respectively election manifesto? The theoretical section summarises the different ideologies central themes/discussions and view of democratic governance, the nation, the economic system respectively international governance. When conducting the analysis, the focus is on the Swedish Democrats central themes/discussions and view of democratic governance, the nation, the economic system respectively international governance and how the party's views relate to the political ideologies and ideas. The conducted analysis reveals features of all four ideologies, especially conservatism and populism.

Naturvetenskap i förskolans pedagogiska idé / Science in the educational mission of the pre-school

Johansson, Sofie January 2014 (has links)
The purpose of this study is to see how the nurseries are working around the pedagogical idea, how they have formulated their goals regarding science and how they evaluate whether they realized the goals. In this study , I have chosen to use qualitative methods , which then formed the basis for how the study was conducted - from planning, execution and analysis. As the investigation person I have found myself in the midst of the activities, to get an overall impression of the educational idea and thus gain insight into whether and activities and the educators thoughts match each other. In the local documents which examined it was seen that the goals of the curriculum were clear and the result was visible that the educators want to lay the foundations of science and give kids a better understanding about nature , recycling and the animals that live in our neighborhood. But what emerged was that the work of the pedagogical idea did not feel anchored , several of the teachers expressed that they have been told to design it and it is much to make it look good outwardly . / Syftet med den här undersökningen är att se hur några förskolor arbetar kring den pedagogiska idén, hur de har formulerat sina mål gällande naturvetenskap och hur de utvärderar om de förverkligat målen. I den här undersökningen har jag valt att använda mig av kvalitativa metoder, som sedan har legat till grund för hur studien utförts - från planering, genomförande och analys. Som undersökningsperson har jag befunnit mig mitt i verksamheten, för att få ett helhetsintryck av den pedagogiska idén och därmed få inblick i om verksamheten och pedagogernas tankar överensstämmer. I de lokala dokument som granskades såg man att målen från läroplanen fanns med mer eller mindre utförliga och pedagogerna vill lägga grunden i naturvetenskap och ge barnen ökad förståelse kring naturen, kretslopp och djuren som lever i vår närhet. Vidare visade resultaten och arbetet kring den pedagogiska idén inte var helt förankrat. Flera av pedagogerna uttryckte en osäkerhet kring uppdraget och uttryckte att man blivit tillsagda att utforma den och det är mycket för att det ska se bra ut utåt sett.

The Dismissive Actually

Egner, Alexander 06 May 2009 (has links)
This project is about giving in to the impulse of ideas. My mind is a little messy and cluttered, swirling with bits of stimuli. The spark of an idea happens when the bits collide. I prefer not to initiate or control the process so much as keep it fed and active. Through graphic design, I bear witness to these ideas, giving them form as a series of visible, tangible objects. Viewed comprehensively, the work establishes an ongoing chronicle of my creative life and mind.

Uzbecká komunita v Praze / Uzbek community in the Prague

Drahoňovský, Libor January 2013 (has links)
This thesis thematically deals with Uzbek minority in Prague, which was formed during the last two decades. Main part contain and analyze the structure of the Uzbek minority, and I used the statistics concerning number, working and educational activities, gender representation, territorial decomposition, crime and infringements of residential regime of Uzbek immigrants. I focus also on determination of expanse and method of integration in the majority society environment, patterns of behavior and thinking and culture aspects of everyday life in the minority group. From the research methods I use survey, in-depth interviews and participant observation. I place emphasis on the definition of "push" and "pull" factors of immigration. In addition, I document how the Uzbek Immigrants assess social and cultural environment of the host country, their attitudes and opinions to the people of the Czech Republic and members of other nationalities, especially to those with whom they come in a host country usually in contact, and how they integrate in the Czech environment. I also pay big attention to the changes that took place in the Uzbek community during life in the Czech Republic, including the period after 2008 due to the recession of Czech economy and restrict working opportunities and perspectives....

Expansionslernprojekt Nachhaltigkeitsbeauftragter (ELP NHB)

Breßler, Julia, Koch, Evelina 02 November 2016 (has links) (PDF)
Veränderungen sind in Lebens- und Arbeitskontexten allgegenwärtig. Sie führen zum Durchbrechen von routinierten Pfaden und Auflösen von Rezeptwissen. Darüber hinaus generieren sie Unsicherheit, Komplexität und Widersprüchlichkeit. Studierenden diese Phänomene zu vergegenwärtigen bzw. sie für diese zu sensibilisieren ist ebenso eine Herausforderung der Hochschuldidaktik. Des Weiteren sieht sich die Hochschule des 21. Jahrhunderts mit der Bildung für nachhaltige Entwicklung konfrontiert. Im Rahmen des Lehr-Lern-Projekts haben wir uns dieser Schwerpunkte angenommen. Der Werkstattbericht verdeutlicht die Generierung einer expansiven Bildungskonzeption und versucht einen Möglichkeitsraum für die Hochschuldidaktik zu schaffen. Des Weiteren stellen wir die Evaluation sowie Implikationen für eine Weiterentwicklung des didaktischen Konzepts dar.

Habitação vertical privada e o mercado imobiliário em São Paulo: dois períodos, dois casos dissidentes Formaespaço e Idea!Zarvos / Vertical private housing and the real estate in Sao Paulo: two periods, two dissident cases Formaespaço and IDEA!Zarvos

Lima, Priscylla Nose de 09 May 2013 (has links)
Estudar a produção de edifícios residenciais verticais privados na cidade de São Paulo em dois períodos da história; entre as décadas de 60 e 70 do século 20 e a primeira década do século 21. Dois períodos que apresentaram propostas de destaque dentro do mercado imobiliário mostrando um novo olhar frente à produção da arquitetura. Examinar além dos aspectos conceituais que os definiram como obras singulares no conjunto da produção imobiliária privada, quais seriam os aspectos estruturais que estariam por trás desta iniciativa: quem são seus agentes, quais as motivações financeiras e eventuais aspectos culturais que definiriam uma nova perspectiva sobre a produção desta arquitetura. Os aspectos a serem considerados para a análise e avaliação dos resultados, referem-se não só a estrutura de linguagem renovadora, mas também sobre outras eventuais conquistas relativas à reconfiguração da espacialidade, flexibilidade de plantas, pesquisas tecnológicas e aspectos sociofinanceiros da operação: publico consumidor, interesse mercadológico, incorporador, etc. / To study the production of private residential buildings in the city of São Paulo in two different time periods, first between the 60\'s and 70\'s of the 20th century; and the first decade of the 21st century. Two distinct periods with above average proposals within the real estate market reflecting the contemporary architectonic production. To exam not the only conceptual aspects that have defined them as unique in the whole of the privately - built real estate; but also the structural aspects that might be behind this initiative: who are their agents, what financial motivations they had, and the eventual cultural aspects that have defined a new perspective on the production of this architecture. The aspects to be considered in this analysis and evaluation of results refer both to the innovative structural language, and to the eventual advancements related to spatial reconfiguration, flexibility of blue prints - layout flexibility, technological research as well as social and economic aspects of the project: end consumers , market interest, development, etc.

Exploring creativity in temporary virtual teams : the case of engineering design

Chamakiotis, Petros January 2014 (has links)
The prevalence of Virtual Team (VT) configurations in organizations has come to challenge the relevance of traditional management practices based on traditional, physically collocated teams. Creativity—a topical and multidisciplinary issue—has been under-researched within the context of virtuality. Predicated on the premise that creativity may be expressed differently in the context of VTs, I draw the conceptual foundations for this research from the fields of virtuality (i.e. VTs) and creativity, and use engineering design as the empirical context, with the aim of pursuing a better understanding of creativity in relationship with virtuality in the context of Virtual Design Teams (VDTs). Design constitutes a pertinent empirical context because (a) designers have to deliver outputs requiring creativity; and (b) their work is increasingly accomplished in VDT environments. I report on the findings from three case studies involving temporary VDTs. Studies 1 and 2 comprised student engineers. Study 3 was a comparative case study focusing on a team of professional engineers, who completed one design task while physically collocated (face-to-face, F2F) and another one while geographically dispersed (virtually), with the aim of isolating factors that are unique to virtuality. With an interpretive stance guiding this research, the same analytical approach for each case study, and with the team serving as the unit of analysis, I analysed the collected data (interview data, observations, video recordings, photographic material, documents, communication extracts, design and other outputs) qualitatively with the use of visual and thematic analysis. The thesis makes the following theoretical contributions: (a) it advances understanding of creativity within the VDT lifecycle; (b) it elicits factors influencing creativity in the temporary VDT context; and (c) it explains how the unique characteristics of virtuality influence creativity within this context. The thesis’ limitations as well as implications for research and practice are also discussed.

Vídeos e matemática na escola : uma decisão imprevisível

Collares, Bruno Marques January 2018 (has links)
Esta dissertação discute a inserção do vídeo nas aulas de matemática. O planejamento e a realização de um conjunto de cinco oficinas sobre vídeos e matemática, com participação de alunos do oitavo ano do Ensino Fundamental de um colégio de Porto Alegre, RS, e a análise desse planejamento e do que ocorreu nessas oficinas constituíram o material empírico da pesquisa. Durante o planejamento, o professor definiu que os alunos iriam assistir vídeos de matemática pré-selecionados, que posteriormente seriam testados em algum formato de questionário. No entanto, antes que as oficinas ocorressem, o professor mudou seu planejamento e, a partir dessa modificação, os alunos passaram a ser os responsáveis por escolher os vídeos e agrupá-los em um conjunto, por assunto, com temas pré-estabelecidos pelo docente. Presumindo que esta mudança tenha sido um dos fatores para que o experimento ultrapassasse os limites cronológicos das oficinas, o professor sentiu-se instigado a buscar por ressonâncias da noção deleuziana de ideia no âmbito da Educação Matemática. Esta busca gerou uma questão potencial a respeito dessa modificação de rumo: seria a mudança feita no planejamento uma ideia em Educação Matemática? / This thesis discusses the insertion of video in elementary school math classes. The empiric material of the study comprises the plans and execution of a set of five workshops concerning video and mathematics, with the participation of eighth grade students of an Elementary School located in Porto Alegre, RS, as well as the analysis of the plans and what took place in these workshops. The teacher‘s initial plan was for students to watch pre-selected videos, which would later be tested in some form of questionnaire. However, before the workshops began, the teacher changed his plan, giving the students the responsibility of choosing the videos and grouping them in a set determined by topic, with an overarching theme pre-established by the teacher. Presuming that such a change was one of the factors for the experiment to surpass the chronological limits of the workshops, the teacher felt urged to search for resonances of Deleuze‘s notion of idea in Math Education. This search generated a potential question regarding that change of plans: could the change made in planning be considered as an idea in Math Education?

Sistema de gestão da inovação da CEEE : proposta de indicadores para avaliação de desempenho

Correa, Cristian Hans January 2016 (has links)
A inovação deixou de ser exclusividade de algumas empresas e passou a permear grande parte delas. Estas inovações podem ser incrementais, melhorando produtos ou processos, ou radicais, rompendo paradigmas no mercado consumidor. Porém, o ato de inovar requer suporte de muitas ações. Dentre essas ações estão às gerenciais, auxiliando na identificação de evidências que apontam se a empresa está no caminho adequado ou não. Alinhado a esta lógica de melhoria contínua é que são realizadas as inovações no âmbito do Programa de Pesquisa e Desenvolvimento (P&D) do setor elétrico, regulado pela Agência Nacional de Energia Elétrica (ANEEL). Este Programa foi instituído por lei e, nos seus primórdios, continha aspectos simplesmente regulatórios. Esta situação permitia que, muitas vezes, os projetos executados não agregassem valor significativo para a empresa ou à sociedade, pois não estavam direcionados para solucionar problemas ou carências existentes. Com o passar do tempo, a percepção dos elementos necessários para compor um programa regulatório se alterou, fazendo com que as empresas passassem a perceber que o P&D poderia contribuir para melhoria de seus serviços e produtos Tal mudança de visão desencadeou a necessidade das empresas desenvolverem processos capazes de captar ideias e transformá-las em soluções que estejam alinhadas aos seus interesses estratégicos. Desta forma, o presente trabalho objetiva desenvolver um conjunto de indicadores que, integrados ao Sistema de Gestão da Inovação (SGI) da CEEE, auxiliem à gestão da empresa tanto na fase de análise e seleção de ideias, quanto na fase do gerenciamento do desempenho da operação do sistema. Para concretização deste trabalho foram realizadas entrevistas, análise de documentos da empresa, revisão da literatura, assim como reuniões e testes para a validação do SGI da CEEE. De posse destes dados, estruturou-se um conjunto de critérios para auxiliar o processo de seleção de ideias, bem como um conjunto de indicadores gerenciais do sistema. Como resultados, esses indicadores permitem à empresa a padronização do seu processo de inovação, bem como uma visão sistêmica do processo como um todo. Por fim, tanto os critérios de seleção de ideias quanto os de indicadores gerenciais são detalhados. / Innovation is no longer an exclusivity of some companies and began to permeate into most of them, whether through simple incremental innovations, which often improve internal processes, or radical innovations that break paradigms and often entering the consumer market. And in this sense of continuous improvement that innovations are carried out under the scope of the Program for Research and Development, of the electric sector, regulated by the National Electric Energy Agency, established by law. The program in its beginnings contained just regulatory aspects, which resulted in executed projects that did not add significant value to the company or society, because they were not directed to solve existent problems and needs. But with the passage of time this conception of regulatory program changed, companies began to realize that the Program for Research and Development could help to improve its services and products, such a change of vision triggered the need for companies to develop processes capable of capturing ideas and turn them into solutions that are aligned with its strategic interests Thus, this study aims to develop a set of indicators that, integrated into CEEE's Innovation Management System, assist the management of the company both in the analysis phase and selection of ideas, as in the phase of management of the system operation's performance. For this work, which is of applied nature, since it follows from the desire to make more efficient or effective a specific situation, surveys were conducted through interviews, the company's document analysis, literature review, as well as validation meetings and tests. Using these data, it was structured a set of ideas selection criteria, and a set of system management indicators, structured and allocated in the dimensions: Strategy, Profitability, Implantation and Time. The application of these indicators allows the company to standardize its innovation process, as well as a systemic view of the whole process. Finally, both the criteria for selection of ideas as the management indicators are detailed.
