Teaching through Stories Renewing the Scottish Storyline Approach in Teacher Education
- 2020
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This book aims to meet the demands on teaching and learning in the twenty-first century, and in specific, how teacher education may transform pedagogical approaches and didactic methods to support future teachers in enhancing needful skills. In particular, it focuses on the pedagogical approach of Storyline, and how a Storyline can be applied in teacher education. It argues that teacher education benefits from the potency of various disciplines while applying an interdisciplinary methodology. Storyline is a problem-based, cross-curricular approach, based on learning through an evolving narrative, created in collaboration between teacher and students. It includes a variety of didactic tools, and inclusiveness towards different learners. Using Storyline in teacher education arrange for teacher educators to integrate alternative structures, that enables interdisciplinary cooperation and topic-based teaching. The authors have incorporated Storyline in many different ways, which contextualizes throughout the book. The book provides an overview of Storyline and introduces improved and new theoretical perspectives on this approach, including many practical examples.

Lärande och lärandeteorier - Om den intentionella människan
- 2016
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Mänskligt lärande är ett komplext fenomen. Det påverkas av såväl mentala/individrelaterade faktorer som interaktiva/sociala faktorer. Den här boken försöker integrera dessa olika perspektiv på lärande som annars brukar ställas emot varandra. Det är berättelsen om människan som en social och kognitiv varelse. I boken drivs tesen om den intentionella lärande människan. Lärande och lärandeteorier presenterar lärandeteorier från olika perspektiv och historiska perioder. Några viktiga kärnbegrepp i boken är: intentioner, social kognition, motivation, minne och kunskap, kommunikation, återkoppling, grupper och organisationer samt kulturella faktorer. Men den diskuterar även mindre vanliga teman såsom transfer, kreativitet, personlighetsdrag, tillit, nätverk och kunskapsdelande.

Interactive advantage, cementing of positions, and social pedagogical recognition : a narratively inspired analysis of professional actors' oral representations of health promotion, prevention, and remediation efforts
- 2021
-
Ingår i: Pedagogical Sciences: Theory and Practice. - Zaporizhia, Ukraine : Zaporizhzhya National Universit, Ukraine. - 2786-5622 .- 2786-5630. ; 39:3, s. 91-102
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The purpose of this study is to present new knowledge about the oral representations of the health promotion, prevention, and remediation efforts of professional actors working with young people who use alcohol and narcotics. The narrative empirical material is based on 36 interviews with professionals working with this population of young people within the context of upper-secondary school activities and outpatient treatment units in Sweden. In their oral representations, professional actors depict themselves as having an interactive advantage in relation to the verbal category of “young people who use alcohol and narcotics”. These verbal patterns seem to cement the professional actor as a superior who sets the agenda for placing these young people within a prevailing normative order. The analysis indicates that an inclusive approach by professionals is crucial to achieving several important aims. An inclusive approach also imposes demands, however, on how upper-secondary schools and outpatient treatment units collaborate with each other in this work with young people. This approach also plays a role in determining the support and room for manoeuvring that professional actors have relative to normatively right and deviant actions and to laws and policies that to some extent govern this practical work. Good relationships between young people and professional actors constitute an important dimension in which the social pedagogical recognition is based on caring, trust, and mutual interactions. It is crucial for professionals to take an approach of inclusion of young people (students) in the school and treatment contexts, with attention to their ability to develop and change in a social pedagogical and educational sense.

Teachers’ Views on the Use of Empathic Robotic Tutors in the Classroom
- 2014
-
Ingår i: 23rd IEEE International Symposium on Robot and Human Interactive Communication, Edinburgh, Scotland. - : IEEE.
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this paper, we describe the results of an interview study conducted across several European countries on teachers' views on the use of empathic robotic tutors in the classroom. The main goals of the study were to elicit teachers' thoughts on the integration of the robotic tutors in the daily school practice, understanding the main roles that these robots could play and gather teachers' main concerns about this type of technology. Teachers' concerns were much related to the fairness of access to the technology, robustness of the robot in students' hands and disruption of other classroom activities. They saw a role for the tutor in acting as an engaging tool for all, preferably in groups, and gathering information about students' learning progress without taking over the teachers' responsibility for the actual assessment. The implications of these results are discussed in relation to teacher acceptance of ubiquitous technologies in general and robots in particular.

Privatisation of public education? : The emergence of independent upper secondary schools in Sweden
- 2011
-
Ingår i: Journal of education policy. - London : Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group. - 0268-0939 .- 1464-5106. ; 26:2, s. 225-243
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article explores the upper secondary (or post-16) school market. The study on which it is based, funded by the Swedish Research Council, was entitled 'Upper-secondary education as a market'. Empirical data include official statistics, policy documents, school publications, company reports and school visits. Printed and other news media were also scrutinised to identify how the marketisation of education is represented in public discourse. A number of themes emerged from the study which included mapping the expansion of the school market, chains of ownership and influence, marketing strategies, choice and the school market and issues raised in the media. These imply that there is a new market discourse which represents a clear break with previous social democratic education policies primarily aimed at enhancing citizenship and wider democratic values within an inclusive public school. However, critiques have also emerged including a call for strengthened regulations of and control over independent schools and concern about an education market equated more with shares and profits rather than pedagogy and student citizenship. Keywords: upper secondary education; independent schools; Sweden; privatisation; marketisation; education funding; profit-maximisation; discourse

Utvärdering av metoder mot mobbning
- 2011
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Denna utvärdering ger besked om insatser och arbetssätt som effektivt förebygger och åtgärdar mobbning. Utvärderingen är unik genom att den omfattar stora mängder data, både kvalitativa och kvantitativa från 39 skolor, att enskilda individers utsatthet följs upp vid tre tillfällen och att den omfattar flera program samtidigt.Resultaten visar bland annat att olika insatser har olika effekt för pojkar och flickor samt olika effekt beroende på om mobbningen är social eller fysisk. Den visar också att ingen enskild insats har dramatiskt positiva effekter. För att en skola ska lyckas förebygga och åtgärda mobbning krävs ett systematiskt arbete och en kombination av insatser. Åtta namngivna program som används mot mobbning har ingått i utvärderingen: Farstametoden, Friends, Lions Quest, Olweusprogrammet, SET - Social och emotionell träning, Skolkomet, Skolmedling samt Stegvis. I utvärderingens fristående metodfördjupning Utvärdering av metoder mot mobbning. Metodappendix och bilagor till rapport 353, (endast publicerad som pdf ) redovisar forskarna utförligt utvärderingens design och redogör för tillvägagångssättet vid datainsamling och analys.

Lärarens ledarskap - professionell pedagogisk praktik
- 2022
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Att läraren är en ledare, det är nog alla överens om. Men vad handlar ledarskapet egentligen om? Den här boken tar sig an det komplexa ledarskapet och dess praktik genom att belysa lärarens ledarskap ur en rad olika aspekter. Lärarens ledarskap är en förutsättning för att undervisningen ska leda till lärande. I undervisningssituationen ska läraren på samma gång balansera undervisning, relationer och ordningsfrågor. Detta förutsätter att den enskilde läraren har didaktisk och relationell kompetens samt kompetens att leda grupper. Samtidigt behöver läraren kunna avläsa och förstå de system som skolan omfattar, och vilka faktorer utanför lärarens dagliga verksamhet som kommer att påverka möjligheterna för läraren att leda och att utveckla sitt ledarskap. I den här boken får läraren redskap för att utveckla ett gott ledarskap genom praktiknära exempel, kopplade till forskning inom varje område. I bokens olika delar speglas det komplexa samspelet mellan elever, lärare och den kontext de befinner sig i samt hur läraren kan navigera sitt ledarskap för att åstadkomma ett hållbart lärande hos eleverna. I ett antal innehållsrika forskningsbaserade kapitel med praktiknära resonemang belyser bokens författare flera olika aspekter av lärarens pedagogiska ledarskap. Här kan läsaren ta del av kapitel som bland annat behandlar ledarskapsteorier, relationellt klassrumsledarskap, konflikthantering, pedagogiskt ledarskap online och lärares ledarskap i en mångkulturell skola.

Obstacles, Achievements, And Collaboration In Swedish High School Work With Students Consuming Alcohol And Narcotics : Accounts Of Teachers, Nurses, And School Counsellors
- 2021
-
Ingår i: Sociological Knowledges for Alternative Futures, the 15th European Sociological Association Conference. - Barcelona, Spain. ; , s. 2-2
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- As shown in previous studies, teachers report that there is a growing need for teacher training regarding alcohol and drug abuse among adolescents, and that many teachers feel uncomfortable with the role of being both teachers and “social workers”. Previous research also indicates that children and youth with good school results and good schooling situations face a lower risk of experiencing social problems as young adults. In this on-going ethnographic study based on observations and field interviews we focus on the experiences of teachers, school nurses, and school counsellors regarding collaborative efforts in cases with young pupils with alcohol and drug abuse. Drawing on an ethnomethodological and symbolic interactionism perspective, we focus on the accounts of school staff who face pupils with these problems. We are mainly interested in 1) the organizational efforts and measures taken to enabling the schooling situation of the pupils, as well as 2) the emotional toll it has on the staff involved. We also focus on collaboration difficulties regarding schools, parents, social workers, as well as other welfare institutions. The preliminary findings suggest that there are various conflicting demands regarding the work tasks and emotional commitment of the school staff; on the one hand to ensure a good educational environment for all pupils, and on the other hand to provide emotional support to the students affected by these problems.

The SDG Impact Assessment Tool – a free online tool for self-assessments of impacts on Agenda 2030
- 2019
-
Ingår i: Proceedings from International Conference on Sustaianable Development.
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This paper presents the SDG Impact Assessment Tool, an online resource for self- assessments of impacts on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In addition, it presents a brief example of an SDG Impact Assessment and some existing and potential applications of the tool. The United Nations (UN) 2030 Agenda and the SDGs are a resolution for attaining sustainable development throughout the world, but also represent a framework towards which the sustainability of almost any activity can be evaluated. Although quantitative methods are indeed pivotal for achieving sustainable development, they are often limited to specific scientific fields and cannot encompass all aspects of all SDGs, including normative societal values. A qualitative and reflective approach, however, is not reserved for scientists in specific fields but can be used by anyone. Using such an approach in the tool presented here represent a good starting point for companies or other organizations that want to learn about the SDGs and minimize their negative impacts. The tool employs a self-assessment of impacts on each of the 17 SDGs, in terms of Direct positive, Indirect positive, No impact, Indirect negative, Direct negative or More knowledge needed, and outputs a graphical visualization of the results. The tool also encourages users to formulate a strategy on how to mitigate negative impacts, increase positive impacts and fill potential knowledge gaps, which can be a starting point for a more comprehensive sustainability strategy for companies or other organizations.

Students’ narrative action in social science teaching in Swedish upper secondary school : Limitations and openings
- 2023
-
Ingår i: Acta Didactica Norden. - Oslo. - 2535-8219. ; 17:2, s. 1-24
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this article, we undertake a narrative analysis of social science teaching in Swedish upper secondary school as a case study. In doing so, we want to stress the need to pay attention to the contextual and situated limits and openings of the conceivable repertoire of legitimate stories of social science in the Swedish context and its related research. The students’ attempts at sense making and action in encounters with the subject matter content, approached in terms of emplotments, render visible to what extent and in what ways the students insert cultural narratives into the subject matter teaching repertoire through their own subject storytelling. Furthermore, it indicates the limits and openings of social science teaching as predetermined “truth telling”, that is, as already-established socio-political knowledge repertoires.In focusing on students’ unique, situated and collective interweaving of their “own” experiences with established cultural and political knowledge repertoires, we wish to make a case for the potential to renew society and students’ ways of acting and being in this storytelling. If meagre attention is provided to this interweaving, we argue that there is a danger that the renewal of society and of social science education will get lost, or at least disturbed, in an undesirable way.
