Dissertation discusses the manners and principles of fundraising for non-profit organizations that are funded only from national and European resources. The purpose of this dissertation is to highlight existing principles of project management in organizations that systematically receive free financial and non-financial resources. The theoretical part describes the basic terminology for NGOs, ways of fundraising and communication inside and outside the organization. Also are named various concepts, principles, and project management life cycle. The last theoretical part is devoted to methods of project management that facilitate and improve the efficiency. Theoretical explanation of the issue creates a basis for research whose aim is the analysis of project management principles used in obtaining free resources in NGOs. Research is carried out in organizations that receive assets from other than just government and European resources. Dissertation provides a detailed description of fundraising in NGOs, foundations and theoretical comparison of the information gathered. A separate section is devoted to the project discovered principles that contribute to the success of polled organizations in obtaining available resources. The work is intended for non-profit organizations that have little or no experience of acquiring free assets for other than state or European sources. Publications can also be used as an inspiration and source of information for students of related disciplines and other interested parties.

Nessa perspectiva, defendemos a educação não-formal como um conceito autônomo, com fazeres particulares e um campo próprio, a partir de uma lógica específica de funcionamento. Através de uma pesquisa bibliográfica, considerando autores internacionais, especialmente espanhóis, norteamericanos e autores brasileiros, a trajetória histórica do conceito de educação não-formal é apresentada, tanto internacionalmente, quanto nacionalmente. A educação não-formal é analisada a partir das políticas públicas para crianças, adolescentes e jovens, e nesse contexto é considerada sua relação com a educação social, assim como uma pequena apresentação e discussão da trajetória da educação social no Brasil. Foram pesquisadas três instituições de caráter não-formal em Campinas (SP) e região, sendo uma de origem religiosa, uma vinculada ao poder público e uma de caráter comunitário. A partir da pesquisa de campo, as concepções dos educadores dessas instituições foram consideradas como constituintes da criação de nuances do conceito de educação não-formal. Consideramos ainda as idéias divulgadas pela grande imprensa sobre os fazeres da educação não-formal e como os meios de comunicação vêm divulgando esse campo. Dessa maneira, a presente pesquisa se preocupou em cartografar a educação não-formal, não como um campo descoberto, ou como um conceito estático, mas como um conceito em movimento, que vem sendo criado e recriado em diferentes momentos e locais. Percebe-se, dessa forma, que o conceito de educação não-formal assume diferentes nuances, em função de que país e de que época histórica abordamos. / Abstract: This doctoral thesis intends to analyze the creation of the concept of non formal education, starting from the deleuzian philosophy, which encompasses the creation of a concept together with its movements and its re-creations. Under this perspective, we defend the idea of nonformal education as na autonomous concept, with its particular makings and a proper field, and a specific logic of functioning. Through the supporting bibliography, which considered foreigners authors, and specially Spanish, North American and Brazilian authors, the historic trajectory of the concept of nonformal education is presented, both in international contexts as in the Brazilian context. The nonformal education is analyzed from the point of view of the public policies targeting children, adolescents, and young adult students, and under such context, we consider its relationship with the social education. We also do a short presentation and discussion on the trajectory of the social education in Brazil. We analyzed three educational institutions of nonformal character in the region of the city of Campinas (State of São Paulo), one of them having a religious origin, another related to the public administration, and the third one having a community character. From the field research, the conceptions of the educators from these institutions were considered as the elements for the creation of concept of nonformal education. We also considered the ideas publicized through the mass media respect to the makings - activities related to nonformal education, as well as the way the communication channels talk about this field. In this way, the present research was concerned in picturing and understanding the nonformal education not as a discovered field, not as a static concept, but instead, as a concept in movement, which is being created and re-created in different moments and different places. With that in mind, we realize that the concept of non-formal education assumes different forms, depending on the country and depending on the period we are focusing. / Doutorado / Ciencias Sociais na Educação / Doutor em Educação

A driveway is needed to get to and from a property. Sometimes there are no opportunities to locate the driveway on the own property. One possibility is to use someone else´s land for locating a driveway in exchange for compensation. The purpose of this study was to examine how the compensation is determined for both long and short driveways outside zoning by doing a case study and compare the result with the various reimbursement rules. The work also addresses the different methods of profit distribution and how they are applied in practice. The conclusion from the case study is that the average value principle is used the most because it is expected to be similar to the case in “normal voluntary agreement”, which is the purpose with the reimbursement rules. To make the reimbursement correspond with the value decrease of the waiver property, adjustments are made on the average value in different ways. The cadastral files to the case study did not match the purpose completely. Therefore, the result can be questioned, but another conclusion drawn from the case study is that in the cadastral files no one discusses about the size of the driveway. It may be that the size of the road is not considered to be a problem or that there is a well-tested method to solve this problem. / För att ta sig till och från en fastighet behövs en utfart. Det är dock inte alltid möjligt att placera utfarten på egen fastighet. Då finns möjligheten att mot ersättning nyttja annans mark för utfart. Syftet med denna uppsats var att undersöka hur ersättningen bestäms för både långa och korta utfarter utanför detaljplan genom att göra en fallstudie och jämföra resultatet med de olika ersättningsreglerna som finns. Uppsatsen berör också de olika vinstfördelningsmetoderna och hur dessa tillämpas i praktiken. Slutsatsen av fallstudien är att den vinstfördelningsmetod som används mest är genomsnittsvärdeprincipen för att den förväntas likna fallet vid ”normal frivillig överenskommelse”, som också är syftet med ersättningsreglerna. För att ersättningen ska stämma överens med marknadsvärdeminskningen på den upplåtande fastigheten justeras genomsnittsvärdet på olika sätt. Förrättningsakterna som användes till fallstudien stämde inte överens med syftet helt. Därför kan resultatet ifrågasättas, men ännu en slutsats som dragits utifrån fallstudien är att i förrättningarna är det ingen som diskuterar storleken av utfarten. Det kan vara för att vägens storlek inte anses vara ett problem eller för att det finns en väl beprövad metod för att lösa detta problem.

Title: Quality of life of people after spinal cord injury practicing outdoor sports and physical activities Objectives: The aim of this diploma thesis was to determine the quality of life of people after spinal cord injury who participe in outdoor sports or physical activities in their lesure time. The subsequent aim was to compare the obtained results with selected groups of people without spinal cord injury and people after spinal cord injury who do not primarily engage in outdoor sports. Methods: The standardized WHOQOL-BREF questionnaire from World Health Organization was used to measure the quality of life in this thesis. The data collection was done online and the data were evaluated according to the relevant manual using Microsoft Excel. The results are presented in tables and graphs for clarity, including verbal descriptions. A total of 32 people with post-traumatic spinal cord injury (23 men and 9 women) aged 30-75 years participated in the study. 11 of whom had quadriplegia and 21 had paraplegia/paraparesis. Results: The research showed that the quality of life of people after spinal cord injury practicing outdoor sports and physical activities is best rated in the are of experience (15,54 points) and in the area of environment (15,31 points). The score were 14,93 for physical health and...

Studien utgår från en fenomenografisk ansats där vårt fenomen som vi vill undersöka är hur förskollärarna erfar sin stödjande roll i undervisningssituationer i, genom och för leken. För att kunna identifiera förskollärarnas uttryck för vårt fenomen så tar vi stöd i begreppet scaffolding, som ingår i den sociokulturella teorin. Men även med hjälp av begreppet outside and inside the flow. Studien är en kvalitativ undersökning där vi med hjälp av semistrukturerade intervjuer utgick från en intervjuguide. Denna intervjuguide fick förskollärarna som vi intervjuade ta del av. I vårt resultat kunde vi se att förskollärarna talar om leken och undervisningen på två olika sätt. De talar om hur man kan undervisa och lära ut genom leken och att man även också kan undervisa och lära ut för leken.

This study attempts to outline the exposure to English language students between the ages of 14 and 16 experience in Swedish schools. Due to the relatively small scope of our study we have limited our parameters and concentrated on two schools with predominantly Swedish pupils. The aim was to establish the nature of English influence on teenagers in Swedish schools and then to examine whether this naturally occurring acquisition of knowledge is utilized in the more formal language learning environment of the classroom.We used a survey to get an overview of our topic and to help us establish patterns and trends of English language exposure amongst our target students. In order to further analyze our topic we conducted two group interviews.Our research shows that English has a great influence on Swedish children though perhaps not as much as we had first anticipated. While receptive acquisition is high, chances to actively produce the language remain low. It is also noted that while different types of English media is in fact utilized in the classroom, it may not be relevant or interesting to the students.

This approach involves breaking down aspects of the readings through the points of civics, science, and culture to better understand how each piece of literature might affect readers and the world around them. / https://dc.etsu.edu/etsu-oer/1010/thumbnail.jpg

<p>This study examines whether directors appointed after a Chief Executive Officer (CEO) assumed office (“co-opted” directors) affect corporate voluntary disclosure. I find evidence that firms issue management earnings forecasts less frequently when directors are co-opted. These results hold even when these directors are considered independent by regulatory definitions. Cross-sectional tests indicate that my results are stronger when firms disclose bad news, provide higher pay to co-opted directors, CEOs have greater ability to withhold disclosure, and co-opt directors early in the CEO’s tenure. I use NASDAQ/NYSE listing requirements as an exogenous shock to board co-option and find that director co-option has a causal link to less voluntary disclosure. I further show that the effect was robust to the effect of CEOs’ disclosure preferences and experience inside the firm. This study suggests that boards that appear independent using the conventional measures may fail to elicit adequate voluntary disclosure to monitor managers. </p>

This thesis concentrates on problematic field of architectural education and practice related to window role. Phenomena of window loosing it’s primary functional purpose [inside-outside connection in terms of view and daylight] and becoming more decorative element of the facade. This paper content consists of analysis of case studies by evaluating window provided light and view qualities using qualitative and quantitative methods in chosen office buildings. Analysis and results are followed by the discussion of window role oppositions between architect’s and user’s perspective together with secondary topics coming out of it. As the result of analysis and discussion - guidelines for window design are suggested and conclusive experiment of their customization is demonstrated. This thesis  concentrates on awareness of window identity crisis as well as examine and provide simple manners, which can increase quality of daylight and view through the openings in architectural planning.
