The story is taking place on an island where multiple worlds collide and the protagonist is forced into a harsh environment to fight for her own survival while trying to save others living on the island. The game is a story driven 2.5D side scrolling hack&slash platformer. You are in control of a character whose sibling supposedly died on birth and lives on in one of the colliding worlds and is strongly connected to the protagonist's consciousness providing aid and information on your journey. Your character is provided with melee combat and spellcasting abilities. You will face distortions of the people and animals living on the island due to the worlds colliding and causing havoc in the reality you can see. Things might not be what they seem, but your connection to the other side will give hints about the real state of things.

No full textAuthor visits at public libraries : A survey of the author perspective
No full textThis study deals with author visits at public libraries, where the author perspective is the focal point. A questionnaire was sent online to the members of Författarcentrum and this study is based on the 87 replies. It was found that a majority of the respondents, 76 of the 87, had made at least one author visit to a public library during the last five years and that their main reason for visiting was reportedly to meet with the reader. Steiner's four categories of authors from 2019 was used to place the respondents in the literary field based on Bourdieu's theoretical framework, the categories being star authors, established authors, acknowledged authors and published authors. It was found that there were certain differences in the experience of the author visits based on what category the author belonged to, and that the authors with strong positions on the literary field were favored in some ways. Throsby's model from 2001 of the creative work process was used alongside Bourdieu's thoughts of the literary field, with the conclusion that author visits to public libraries seem to be a kind of work that produce both economic and cultural value for the author. However the sampling wasn't big enough to make certain general statements of how authors experience and view author visits to public libraries on a larger scale

No full textAuthor(s): Hanna Kartano & Linnea Johnsson Title: Age is not just a number – a qualitative study about the attitudes that social worker have towards the request from the Migrations office regarding age assasement of unaccompanied children seeking asylum. Supervisor: Roberto Scaramuzzino Assessor: Elizabeth Martinell Barfoed This study explores the attitudes among social workers that are working with unaccompanied children seeking asylum concerning the request from the Migration Agency regarding the age assessment of unaccompanied children. The sample is based on social workers in the Swedish social services working with unaccompanied children seeking asylum. The sample is based on both convenience- and targeted selection. Semi-structured interview is the method of choice which has been used with the social workers. The empirically gathered material has been analyzed based on the theoretical concepts of ethics and discretion as well as organization theory. In the gathered material the authors of this study have found that the attitudes among social workers differ regarding their competence as well as the room for subjective opinions. Furthermore, it has been shown that there is an absence of discussion concerning age assessments within the group and that there is a difference of opinion regarding the need for it. The likelihood of avoiding to give information to the Migration Agency that could potentially be to the child’s disadvantage in the age assessment differed among the social workers of this study. The arguments used were, among others, the law as well as the social workers’ lack of competence in the matter. theory, discretion
Föräldrainvolvering vid samtal med minderåriga : En kvalitativ studie om kuratorers syn på föräldrainvolvering
No full textAuthor: Linnea Olsson och Sandra Brandt Title: Föräldrainvolvering vid samtal med minderåriga Supervisor: Johan Cronehed Assessor: Anna Tegunimataka The aim of this study was to examine counselors approach to parental involvement in dialouge with adolescents in the age 13-17 years old. The main questions in this study was 1) what is counselors view on parental involvement? 2) what is the counselors approach towards the adolescents maturity and ability to manage their mental illness? 3) how do counselors work in the handling of adolescents mental illness and parental involvement? We interviewed two counselors within health care, two within the youth clinic and two school counselors in Scania (Skåne), which have been randomly selected. Partly the analysis is based on Pierre Bourdieus concepts about field and doxa. Most of the analysis is however based on Erik Eriksons and James Marcias theorys about identity. We found that counselours work differently with parental involvement and make individual assessments when parents should be contacted or not, unless the adolescent itself wants the counsleor to contact their parents. All the counselors could see something positive and something negative in parental involvement. Some conselors thought that parental involvement was the main focus, while some wanted to involve them as little as possible. This means that they have different kinds of doxa, and their work routine is different from each others. The adolescents are in a process where they have to find their own identity and be independent. They are still in need of adult support, but have to manage to take care of them self and begin their journey to the adult life. Key words: parental involvement, adolescents, counselors, separation-individuation, identit

We wanted to study why the companies work with Facebook the way they do? How do they work practically? How do the companies believe that their way of working with Facebook influences the relationships with the costumers? The reason behind the choice of topic was that Facebook is a relatively new tool within marketing. We wanted to investigate how companies can use their Facebook page as a part of their marketing. Method: We have used a deductive method as we have used established theories and applied them to reality. The primary empirical data that was collected was of a qualitative character. Result & Conclusions: The travel coordinators in our study use Facebook as a helpdesk and as platform for conducting dialogs with their customers. The companies gain knowledge about their customers through their way of working with Facebook. Through the integration between company and customer, can the customer become a part of a value adding process. If the company deals with public criticism in a respectable manner, can negative gossip about the company be salved and faith be build. Suggestions for future research: A study where you see everything from a customer’s point of view. Contribution of the thesis: We hope that this study can contribute to an overview of how companies use Facebook as an aim in their relationship marketing today. Key words: Facebook.

How to Construct the Perfect Scandal : a study of the news reported by Expressen concerning the SD-scandal
No full textTitle: How to Construct the Perfect Scandal – a study of the news reported by Expressen concerning the SD-scandal Author: Linnea Ivarsson This C-paper presents the incident concerning the political party Sverigedemokraterna in Expressen in November 2012. The newspaper was the main source of the news reporting with the mobile phone camera film from the occurance and led the way of the news reporting in Sweden about three party members. The paper investigates how the story telling of the so called SD-scandal was constructed, using Critical Discourse Analysis as the analysis method combined with selected parts from the analysis method of critical linguistics. The theories that have been used to establish the results of the analysis are Critical Discourse as a theory based on Norman Fairclough and Teun A. van Dijks theoretical keystones combined with Sigurd Allerns and Ester Pollacks theories and schematic point of view on the constructions of political scandals in media. With the theories and analysis methods above mentioned the results turned out to confirm the theory about how political scandals in media are constructed and designed with certain strategies and agenda. The authors of the articles in Expressen showed the reader that they throughout the process had a certain plan with the material the editors of the newspaper had before the scandal burst. The way they used quotes from the witnesses, the leader Jimmie Åkesson and from the political members combined with how they edited the mobile phone film and published it in a strategic way analyzed with the discourse analysis as a starting point showed that the newspaper constructed the roles and the discourse that were intermediated. Coincidences did not exist in this news reporting and the process from the first interview with the witness until the last article when some of the men were resigned seemed to have been strategically planned out even before the first article was published. In the conclusion of the paper it shows that Expressen seemed to have a well planned strategy in their news reporting of the three politicians in the film and the occurrences. Political scandals in media have looked the same for quite some time and by the result of this analysis it will still have the same construction since the outcome of this story was effective and profiting for the newspaper. At the same time, the discourse of hypocritical and lying politicians is effectively reproduced through how the reporting was constructed and angled. Even though racism might have seemed to be the main theme of the articles, the purpose seemed to have been to put the politicians in a precarious and almost unfixable situation, a process we have seen many times before in media
