Syftet med studien är att undersöka vilka faktorer som motiverar elever att arbeta mot godkända betyg samt vilka skillnader det finns i elevernas upplevelser av motivation på Kunskapsskolan respektive kommunala skolor i en storstad i Sverige. En kvantitativ metod har använts, där pappersenkäter delats ut till elever på respektive skola. Totalt deltog 55 elever i studien, 33 från Kunskapsskolan och 22 från den kommunala skolan. Enkäten innehöll mestadels frågor med svarsalternativ men även två öppna frågor. Data har analyserats och räknats om till procent som presenteras i tabeller. Enkätens öppna frågor presenteras i en tematisk analys. Resultatet visar att eleverna på Kunskapsskolan upplever en högre nivå av socialt stöd i skolan än eleverna på den kommunala skolan. Kunskapsskolans elever trivs även bättre med sina klasskamrater och övriga elever på skolan, jämfört med den kommunala skolan. Kunskapsskolan använder sig av ett kooperativt lärande med influens av tävlingsinriktat lärande medan den kommunala skolan använder individualistiskt lärande influerat av tävlingsinriktat.

With the rapid expansion of e-sports, the e-sports federation in Sweden seeks legitimacy and support in their efforts to gain recognition as a real sport. With this background, a bill has been proposed to the National Sports Association of Sweden to include the movement as a member of the organization. Thus, granting the official legitimacy and support that the e-sports movement seeks as a sport. The purpose if this study was to examine how sports clubs perceive e-sports to see if they think it has a place within the context of a traditional sports club. The method used to retrieve this data was semi-structured interviews with key decision makers within the sports clubs randomly chosen within a specific county. The purpose was examined by breaking it down into three key questions, which were then used as headlines in the result. The results of the study are that there is a willingness among most of the sports clubs to begin the work of integrating e-sports within the club, but there were requirements. One of them was drift from the starters so that the board of direction can keep doing what they do, thus they want the e-sports section to operate on its own. Another requirement was that those who wish to start the e-sports sections know the economic parameters, preferably. The less enthusiastic leaders who did not wish to integrate e-sports still wished to learn more about e-sports as they saw that it will keep expanding, these leaders were however somewhat doubtful of how an e-sports club could be integrated into a sports club and what benefits there might be for both parties in this cooperation.
