Textbaserade problemlösningsuppgifter inom delmomentet area : En läromedelsanalys i två olika matematikböcker för elever i årskurs 6.Rönngren, Sara January 2020 (has links)
Ett arbete om hur textbaserade problemlösningsuppgifter inom delmomentet area framställs i två matematikböcker. Syftet med arbetet är att skapa en djupare förståelse om läromedlen möjliggör ett lärande för eleverna. Metoden för arbetet är en kvalitativ innehållsanalys som präglas av Taflins (2007) beskrivningar av uppgifter och hennes sju kriterier för att ett problem ska anses vara ett rikt problem. Vidare används även opportunities to learn (OTL) för att undersöka lärandet med frågor. Teorin som formar arbetet är variationsteorin där lärandeobjektet, kritiska aspekter och variationsmönster är övergripande teman. Genom att använda en kvalitativ innehållsanalys tillsammans med variationsteorin och OTL ges möjligheter att enklare urskilja teman, mönster och begrepp i matematikböckerna. Fynden som gjorts i matematikböckerna visar att det finns flera textuppgifter som uppfyller samtliga av Taflins (2007) sju kriterier för rika problem och blir sålunda textbaserade problemlösningsuppgifter. Dessa framställs på olika sätt då de har olika lärandeobjekt, kritiska aspekter och variationsmönster. Olika teman påverkar även elevernas möjligheter till lärande då olika uppgifter fokuserar på olika saker. Slutligen påverkas elevernas lärande av mängden uppgifter och instruktioner i läromedlen. Instruktionerna ger eleverna information om vad de ska arbeta med men det är eleven själv som behöver sin problemlösningsförmåga, förståelse och sina kunskaper samt erfarenheter för att kunna lösa uppgifterna och skapa sig ett individuellt lärande.

Potřeby rodin v azylovém domě a možnosti sociální práce s rodinou / Needs of families in the shelter and possibilities of social work with familySimonová, Tereza January 2017 (has links)
The master thesis "Needs of families in the shelter and possibilities of social work with family" is divided into theoretical and empirical part. The theoretical part consists of six chapters which answer the basic questions of the issue. Specifically, it defines the term homelessness, its types and causes. The next chapter is devoted to the concept of family, its function and manifestation in postmodern society. The following chapter explains family cohabitation disorders, in particular family with a substance abusing member, incomplete family, family abusing and neglecting their children, family at risk of domestic violence, family with a sentenced member, family with a mentally ill adult member, family with a problematic child, family with a disabled child, and family with multiple issues. Description of shelter (especially shelter for families with children), its legal definition, and shelter network in the Czech Republic is another integral component of the theoretical part. The theoretical part is concluded with description of possibilities of social work with family in a shelter. The empirical part contains results of interviews and focus groups. The interviews were carried out with clients of the shelter for families with children in Horní Počernice. Employees of the shelter Horní Počernice...

Assessing the actions taken in a post disaster environment for financial gain in a construction company : A case study of Newtech Installations 1992-2020Antonsson, Ida, Champigny, Julien January 2020 (has links)
With globalisation and global warming threats, natural disasters happen at a faster rate, and their impact is drastically more prominent than before. In this thesis, we investigate the actions the organisation Newtech performed in three post-natural disaster environments to enter the markets and benefit from them. By analysing the key actions an organisation can take in order to be more likely to benefit in a post-natural disaster market, the intention is to make more ventures aware of this tappable market and how to profit from entering it. This research uses a one case study to investigate the nuanced perspective of a venture that has, on multiple occasions, entered post-natural disaster markets and what key actions performed. From evaluating pre-existing literature and patterns spotted in the empirical data collected through interviews with the organisation, there appeared five key actions for non-local ventures that strive to enter a post-natural disaster market. The actions discovered by this thesis are (1) spot the opportunity, (2) investigate the environment of the market pre-arrival, (3) prepare based on the investigation, (4) continuously observe the market, (5) make adaptions if necessary.

The Sky is Not the Limit : Research Opportunities in Suborbital FlightsJonsson, Anna January 2015 (has links)
This report investigates research opportunities in manned suborbital flights and gives future recommendations for relevant parties to seize such opportunities. The objective is to make a summary of the current state and elaborate on possible future steps to take. The study uses a research- and analysis-based approach, with stakeholder interviews being an important contribution to the analysis, as well as open-source mate-rials such as market analyses and research papers. Emerging suborbital flight vehicle developers are studied, as well as the future demand for suborbital flights. Major space research areas are investigated in terms of current experiments conducted, platforms used for experiments and their drivers and drawbacks, and future goals and dreams.The demand for suborbital flights is expected to grow up to 40% in coming years, out of which space research will account for 24%. Key characteristics of currently used platforms are microgravity time and level, payload capacity, flight and re-flight opportunities, launch flex-ibility and cost. The cost per kg of payload for suborbital flights is a competitive k€0.5-5. Suborbital flights can fill a gap in research in biology, physiology and human research, astrobiology/exobiolgy, atmo-spheric physics, space technology, and education. There are also fu-ture opportunities for satellite launch, with a growing demand for small-satellite launches. Future recommendations for Sweden are to develop institutional support for suborbital flights on an EU level, and to initi-ate collaborations for a suborbital flights program with a vehicle concept that provides better microgravity time and level than parabolic flights, and offers the possibility to have a human operator.

Alternativa livsmedelsnätverk - utmaningar och möjligheter : En studie av REKO-Ringar i Jönköpings län, som bidrar till hållbarhet / Alternative Food Networks challenges and opportunities : A study of REKO-Rings in Jönköping County, contributing to sustainabilityWang, Hongning, Zhang, Haotian January 2022 (has links)
Purpose – This study aims to explore the challenges and opportunities faced by the REKO-Rings as a form of alternative food networks (AFNs). By exploring the challenges faced by producers and consumers in participating in REKO-Rings, this study will ultimately identify several opportunities and potential solutions to help Jönköping County develop AFNs. Method – This study uses case studies as the methodology. Literature review, interviews, observations, and questionnaires are used as the research methods. Triangulation is used in the empirical study and combined with qualitative and quantitative research approaches. Findings – The study shows that the literature contributed twelve challenges, of which the empirical data confirmed eleven challenges and identified six challenges that are not mentioned in the literature. The challenges faced by producers are market demand, logistics and operations, knowledge and skills, policy, animals and nature, financial statements and individual consumers and yield. Consumers' challenges include price, trust, skills, time and geography, privacy, order tracking, pandemic, and product packaging. Finally, seven challenges provide opportunities to develop REKO-Rings, namely market demand, logistics and operation, knowledge and skill (for the producer), policy, price, skill (for the customer), and time. Implications – The study contributes to theoretical research on the subject because the results update the theoretical progress and identify new challenges for the participation of REKO-Rings. This study also contributes to developing business for producers and improving the shopping experience for consumers participating in REKO-Rings. The study also provides managerial implications as the results are fed back to the interviewed administrators and project publishers to support managers in creating targeted strategies. Limitations – The study is limited to Jönköping County and focused on one form of alternative food network: REKO-Rings.

Drivers leading Olympic Athletes to Entrepreneurial Opportunities: An Analysis of the US Olympic Team from Tokyo 2020 : A bachelor thesis that analyzes the drivers towards entrepreneurship amongst US Olympic athletes with a qualitative research design.Abuzeni, Julian, Obodnikovs, Kristaps January 2022 (has links)
Background: The authors have observed that Olympic athletes of Team USA supplement their income, or finance themselves entirely, through entrepreneurial opportunities. This study focuses on Olympic Athletes from the United States - with a limitation to members of the US Olympic Rowing Team that competed at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games. Unbeknownst to many, athletes from Team USA, and Olympians globally, do not receive compensation from the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to compete at the Olympic Games. Instead, US Olympians receive a monthly stipend from the United States Olympic and Paralympic Committee (USOPC) ranging between $1000 to $2000 US Dollars. Provided this information, the authors were interested in identifying whether their financial situation, or any other drivers, made them more likely to pursue entrepreneurial opportunities. Purpose: The aim of this thesis is to identify and understand the drivers which led US Olympic athletes to improve their financial situation while on the US Olympic team. Method: This thesis focuses primarily on qualitative data gathered from interviews with eight members of the United States Olympic Rowing Team who competed at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. To fulfill our purpose, the authors elected to utilize the explorative study framework, with a purposive sampling and following an inductive reasoning approach. Moreover, the primary data from our interview is collected through semi-structured interviews, which were conducted through (Zoom) virtual video conferencing calls. Findings: From our interviews with members of the US Olympic Rowing Team who competed at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, we have identified six (6) common factors shared amongst our interviewees – leading them to pursue one or more entrepreneurial opportunity/ies. Those common factors were: (1) The United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee’s Stipend for athletes does not fully finance their monthly expenditure; (2) the athletes’ recognition of their rising brand value; (3) the unpredictability of their training and competition schedules; (4) the pressure on athletes for professional work experience; (5) an interest in Entrepreneurship; and (6) their requirements for flexible employment. Conclusion: After weighing our findings, the authors would agree that the most compelling driver to pursue entrepreneurship was the need for an additional income to supplement their USOPC Stipend. However, the authors must also add that these drivers cannot be individually held responsible for the pursuance of an entrepreneurial opportunity – to the contrary, the authors would propose that the most reasonable interpretation is that US Olympians are pursuing entrepreneurship as a result of a combination of the aforementioned drivers influencing their lives – as shown by all of our interviewees being affected by three or more of the identified drivers.

Lean for Real Estate management – A study of development opportunities within the Real Estate Management sector / Lean och Fastighetsförvaltning : en studie om utvecklingsmöjligheter inom fastighetsförvaltningssektornJarebro, Oscar January 2014 (has links)
The real estate industry is undergoing changes. Licensing of Real Estate Managers to ensure competence has in recent years been studied and proposed. Standardization through ISO certification has been studied for property management and studies identified a possible need for standardization. However, the author of this essay not encountered Lean or practices from other sectors applied nor widely investigated in the property sector. Simple efficiency and cost saving measures have most likely already taken place, much as the effect of the financial crisis. Energy saving measures are required and sought by political and environmental goals. Long-term sustainable thinking is something that is required and is recommended by industry personnel for running an efficient administration. Strategic actions will be important in order to raise revenue or reduce expected future costs. A good planning is essential to deal with the uncertainties associated with property management. Communication, competence and continuity have been shown to be the keys to an efficient operation. By examining the activities and challenges of property management, people have expressed development opportunities in several areas. A possibly necessary development, following one of the report's findings, show that the industry consider itself to be somewhat inferior comparing work for efficiency with other industries. Therefore there is a relevance of a survey of industry philosophies, in this case Lean. This work aims to disclose Lean and to investigate and analyze some of the industry's organizational challenges. Several interesting results have been obtained within the work with this paper. A relatively large proportion of respondents who participated in the survey believe that there is a positive effect of greater use of philosophies such as Lean - a perception that increases as Lean knowledge held by the respondent increases. Here, studies also show a spread depending on the position of the respondent, within the company and within the industry. For example: In questions about work concerning efficiency improvements and development opportunities. / Fastighetsbranschen genomgår idag till viss del förändringar och utvecklas. Auktorisation av förvaltare för att säkerställa kompetens har under de senare åren undersökts och föreslagits. En standardisering genom ISO certifiering har undersökts för fastighetsförvaltningens del och identifierat ett möjligt behov av standardisering. Däremot har författaren till denna uppsats inte stött på Lean eller metoder från andra sektorer tillämpade eller i större utsträckning undersökta inom fastighetsförvaltning. Många enkla effektiviserings- och kostnadsbesparingsåtgärderna har redan tagit plats, mycket som effekt av finanskrisen. Energibesparingsåtgärder krävs och eftersträvas i politiska och miljömässiga mål. Ett långsiktigt hållbart tänkande är någonting som krävs och förordas av branschaktiva för att driva en effektiv förvaltning. Strategiska åtgärder blir viktiga för att kunna höja intäkter eller minska förväntade framtida kostnader. En bra planering är viktig för att hantera de osäkerheter som är förknippade med fastighetsförvaltning. Kommunikation, kompetens och kontinuitet har visats vara nycklar till en effektiv verksamhet. Genom att undersöka verksamheten och utmaningar för fastighetsförvaltning har personer uttryckt utvecklingsmöjligheter inom flera områden. En möjligtvis nödvändig utveckling då en av rapportens upptäckter visar på att branschen anser sig vara lite sämre vad gäller effektiviseringsarbete än andra. Därför finns en relevans av undersökning en av industrins filosofier, i detta fall Lean. Inom ramen för detta arbete får avses att upplysa om Lean och undersöka samt analysera några av branschens organisationsmässiga utmaningar. Flera intressanta resultat har erhållits i arbetet. En relativt stor del av respondenter som deltagit i undersökningen tror på positiva effekter av ökad användning av filosofier som Lean - En uppfattning som ökar när vetskapen om Lean hos de svarande ökar. Undersökningar visar även på en spridning beroende på position inom företagen, dels inom jämförelse av effektiviseringsarbete och dels inom var utvecklingsmöjligheterna anses finnas.

En förenklad modell avintensivundervisning.- Modellens påverkan på en elev i matematiksvårigheter ochmodellens möjligheter och utmaningar för lärareNordqvist, Louise January 2021 (has links)
It is the school's responsibility to give the students teaching that can encourage their development and learning. One teaching method that has proven to be beneficial for students in math difficulties is intensive instruction. The purpose of this study was therefore to study, through a case study, how a simplified model of intensive instruction can impact a student in math difficulties and his/her learning. The case study also highlights opportunities and challenges with using the simplified model as a teacher. The results showed that the intensive instruction model had a positive effect on the student in several ways, but that the teacher should not be too guiding if the teaching is going to be beneficial for the student. The results also showed that the teacher needs to have good mathematical competence and that the teaching should adapt the instruction to the student's conditions and needs. Another valuable result is that the intervention gave positive learning effects in a relatively short time which might make schools and teachers more willing to try using the simplified model of intensive instruction. / Det är skolans ansvar att erbjuda en undervisning som främjar alla elevers utveckling ochlärande. Ett arbetssätt som visat sig vara fördelaktigt för att främja lärandet hos elever i matematiksvårigheter är intensivundervisning. Den här studien har därför haft till syfte att, genom en fallstudie, undersöka hur en förenklad modell av intensivundervisning kan påverka lärandet hos en elev i matematiksvårigheter. Fallstudien undersökte även de möjligheter och utmaningar som finns med att som lärare genomföra en förenklad modell av intensivundervisning. Resultatet visade att intensivundervisningen påverkat eleven positivt i flera avseenden men att läraren inte får vara för lotsande om undervisningen ska bli fördelaktig för eleven. Resultatet visade även att läraren behöver ha en god matematisk kompetens och att undervisningen bör anpassas till elevens förutsättningar och behov. Ytterligare ett värdefullt resultat utifrån fallstudien är att interventionen gav resultat på kort tid och det kan bidra till att allt fler skolor och lärare vågar pröva denna undervisningsform.
