Digitala utbildningar finns för att hjälpa verksamheter med att utbilda sina anställda för att förbättra deras prestationer, samt skydda verksamheterna från att bli utnyttjade. Gamification eller spelifiering är tillämpningen av spelmekanismer i ett icke-spelsammanhang och används inom företag då dess upplevda potential gör att lärande blir mer engagerande och roligt. Det finns inte mycket forskning som bevisar om gamification kan hjälpa företag i utbildningssyfte eller inte. Denna studie undersökte om gamification gör digitala internutbildningar roligare eller inte, genom att jämföra två företag där ena använde sig av gamification och det andra inte gjorde det. Den insamlade data kom från frågeformulär som gav både kvalitativ och kvantitativ data. Data har analyserats med T-test och tematiskt analys för att ge ett empiriskt bidrag till forskningen angående gamification. Resultaten visade att gamification har en betydande inverkan på att göra digitala internutbildningar roligare från både T-testet och den tematiska analysen. / Digital training education exists to help businesses educate their employees to improve their performance as well as to protect the business from being exploited. Gamification is the application of game mechanisms in a non-game context and is used within companies as its perceived potential makes learning more engaging and fun. There is not yet much research that actually proves whether gamification can help companies for educational purposes or not. The study investigated whether gamification makes digital training education more fun or not by comparing two companies where one used gamification and the other did not. The data collected came from questionnaires that provided both qualitative and quantitative data. The data has been analyzed with a T-test and a thematic analysis to provide an empirical contribution to the research regarding gamification. The results show that gamification has a significant impact on making digital internal training more fun from both the T-test and the thematic analysis.

This thesis is concerned with the selection and early career education of executive branch officers in the Royal Navy c1902-1939. The thesis attempts to place naval selection and educational policy in context by demonstrating how it was affected by changing naval requirements, external political interference and contemporary educational reform. It also explores the impact of the First World War and the Invergordon mutiny upon officer education. The thesis discusses the selection of potential executive officers, exploring what methods were used, why they were used and how they were developed over time. It discusses the increasing openness of the officer corps of the Royal Navy to boys of talent, irrespective of their background; and shows that this trend was driven by political demand, fuelled by the increasing number of well educated lower middle class boys, and welcomed by many in the Royal Navy. The thesis demonstrates that the Fisher-Selborne Scheme of officer education combined existing naval practice with recent educational developments to produce a unique and innovatory educational system. It shows how many of the assumptions on which the scheme was founded were subsequently proven to be wrong, and demonstrates its gradual dismantling through the inter-war years. The thesis considers the development of the Special Entry scheme, initially in response to a shortage of junior officers but later as a means of broadening entry to the officer corps. It contrasts the fortunes of the two schemes in the inter-war period, in which the educational side of the Special Entry scheme was largely unaltered. Overall the thesis seeks to place the development of the Royal Navy’s systems for the selection and early career education of executive officers in context by exploring how and why they were developed and their response to the changing fortunes and shape of the Royal Navy.

To enter higher education means making new experiences and develop newunderstanding within a knowledge field. The situation could also entail, for thestudent, an entirely different self-understanding. This licentiate thesis deals withthis kind of learning process.The overall aim of this licentiate thesis is to analyze what an art teachers education,founded on contemporary conceptual art, can offer in terms of transformativelearning. The point of departure is adults learning processes as renegotiations ofprevious interpretations which can be transformed to new understanding. The studyanalyzes what aspects of transformative learning are reflected in students' texts andimages, produced as part of the studied course. The licentiate thesis also discussespossibilities and constraints of this learning process. The study was conducted as acase study based on a hermeneutic approach. Material was collected from thecourse blog which consisted of students' texts and images.The study results show a transformative learning process which students experiencedas emotionally tumultuous because their self-image, as future art teachers, isrenegotiated. The situation contains a dimension of learning which I call "twistingand turning" in which new understanding is being formed. This situation requires aself-reflexive creative approach. The result generates questions about therelationship between the content of the education (what) and the learner (who) in anart teachers education founded on a non-traditional base. This applies above all ineducations that challenge students' prior understanding of a field. One could alsoask how adult learning is staged as relearning in higher education. The studydevelops a concept of reflexive creativity which contains a more abstract level thanjust problem solving. The idea of reflexive turn in art education, based onconceptually contemporary art, is also discussed.

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / A tese analisa o papel desempenhado pela UNESCO no que se refere a disseminação de diretrizes e valores ideológicos no campo da educação no Brasil na virada do milênio e a tarefa educativa realizada pelo Programa das Escolas Associadas da UNESCO (PEA-UNESCO) como um dos mecanismos de difusão do modelo educacional da UNESCO no chão das escolas. Dessa forma, resgatamos, num primeiro momento, algumas categorias e conceitos marxianos e marxistas que foram utilizados como suporte teórico para análise do objeto, seguido de uma breve reflexão sobre os limites e as possibilidades de conjuntura. Num segundo momento, caracterizamos a política neoliberal como uma expressão político-pedagógica da nova sociabilidade e o Novo-Desenvolvimentismo no Brasil como uma forma de ressignificar o padrão de intervenção do Estado na economia e na questão social. Além disso, realizamos uma revisão de literatura e análise de estudos que elaboraram sínteses sobre a pedagogia da hegemonia e sua relação com os organismos multilaterais. Abordamos, num terceiro momento, por meio de pesquisa documental e análise bibliográfica, um pouco da história da UNESCO, seus princípios, conteúdos, métodos e seus principais encaminhamentos da virada do milênio, bem como sua articulação com os outros organismos multilaterais. Por último, analisamos o PEA-UNESCO no contexto da perspectiva educacional da UNESCO como forma de dar materialidade a análise. Deste modo, ao compreendermos a vinculação com a necessidade burguesa de educar o consenso e educar para o conformismo, concluímos que a UNESCO, no conteúdo e na forma através de diversas ações , vem exercendo a função de elaborar e difundir um modelo pedagógico que cimenta as orientações de políticas públicas educacionais dos demais organismos multilaterais. Afirma-se que ela cumpre um papel de intelectual orgânico ao contribuir de forma significativa para conformar as classes trabalhadoras aos valores requeridos pelo sistema capitalista no seu atual estágio ao compor o bloco histórico dominante. O PEA-UNESCO cumpre a tarefa pedagógica de difundir, ideologicamente, a perspectiva de educação ao longo da vida e a educação para o desenvolvimento sustentável como elementos que reforçam o processo de afirmação de uma nova sociabilidade requerida pelo Estado educador, no qual a UNESCO/PEA, na nova fase superior do imperialismo, cumpre um papel significativo
