Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article examines the tactical (counter) politics of inclusive and 'norm-critical' approaches in Swedish sex education, focusing on the enactment of this critical agenda in sex education practices and how teachers interpret and negotiate the possibilities and pitfalls of this kind of work. The analysis draws on participant observation in sex education practices and in-service teacher training, as well as interviews with educators. Three recurrent strategies lie at the centre of the analysis: the sensitive use of language to achieve inclusion; the organisation and incorporation of 'sensitive' content to resist stigmatisation; and the use of different modalities to produce a specific knowledge order. The analysis shows how these strategies are grounded in norm-critical ideals, which become partly inflicted with tensions and discomforts when acted out in practice. The analysis further shows how an inclusive and norm-critical agenda runs the risk of becoming static, in the sense of providing students with the results of critique rather than engaging them in it.

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.

Newly arrived parents and collaboration in Swedish school context: an interactionally and ethnomethodologically inspired analysis
- 2021
-
Ingår i: Education. - Mobile, Alabama, USA : Project Innovation. - 0013-1172. ; 141:3, s. 127-144
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The purpose of this study is to analyse 1) newly arrived parents’ accounts of collaboration in Swedish school context and 2) depicted triads and alliance constellations presented during interviews with recently arrived parents regarding the collaboration in Swedish school context. The study’s analysis is based on secondary empirical material (empirical sequences from previously published qualitative analyses). Its analytical discoveries are presented as three themes: (1) collaboration identity through distancing, (2) invitation to collaboration alliance, and (3) home- and school-focused collaboration. Analysis shows that the parents dramatise the need for collaboration between teachers and parents and construct and reconstruct collaborative alliances and triads in their narratives. Members who appear in these interactions are parents, children, and teachers. In the parents’ narratives about the collaboration, a picture emerges of an invitation to teachers to form an alliance partnership. The alliance partnership seems to strengthen stability in the triad with the objective of creating a successful collaboration in the children’s best interests and to draw attention to the importance of parents’ participation in collaboration in the school context. Successful collaboration in the school context seems to be a basic prerequisite for the successful involvement and integration of parents from different ethnic backgrounds into general society.

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.

Konsten att hålla ihop : Om lärande och organisering i rockband
- 2020
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Rock bands are foundational for modern day music life. These small groups provide well-being and self-fulfillment to its members, as well as fuel for the cultural life and the increasingly highlighted creative industries. Rock bands, however, are particularly difficult to organize. Bands face a range of challenges in keeping together and developing as a group.The aim of this doctoral thesis is to develop knowledge on rock band formation and development over time. Based in the discipline of education, the thesis mainly contributes to the fields of organization studies, social theories of learning, and music and cultural life research.The thesis uses the theory of situated learning to explore rock band formation and development. The methodology is qualitative and ethnographic, and the research design builds on three studies: an interview study with three rock bands and two case studies. All five bands are Swedish and have found different degrees of success and popularity.The thesis investigates band activities and courses of events, band members’ identities, and challenges faced. The findings indicate that a rock band’s activities shift between a production mode – i.e. highly productive times associated with public performances, record releases and marketing, and behind the scenes processes of creating, recording and planning – and a contrasting less active hibernation mode without bigger public projects or goals. The amount of time spent in production mode depends on the band’s degree of “membership” in the music industry. Moreover, a band member forms and actualizes identities of colleague, creator, entrepreneur, friend, hobbyist and professional, in differing combinations, situations and modes. Furthermore, the members’ most significant challenges relate to identity dilemmas.Based on these findings, the thesis formulates a model for a rock band’s learning trajectory and argues that a band may develop as it approaches, or becomes a more central member in, the music industry. This development demands increased public success and organizational ability: the band members’ ability to form business-oriented practices, to participate uniformly in an overarching community of practice, and to be flexible as they must identify with, and ascribe meaning to, a variety of activities in different and sometimes contradictory ways.The thesis concludes that the challenges of persistence as a rock band or similar group relates chiefly to group member difficulties in identifying with different activities and situations that are necessary to sustain and develop as a collective. Eventually, individual members tend to handle the experience of uncertainty and ambivalence by holding on to one singular identity, which may prevent group development, foster intra- and interpersonal tensions, and ultimately can lead to significant conflicts and/or a band’s breakup.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The focus of this article is on mathematics teaching in a play-based and goal-oriented practice, such as preschool, and on how different lines of actions may impact children's learning opportunities. Video recordings of authentic play activities involving children and nine teachers from different preschools were analyzed qualitatively to answer the following research questions: (1) What lines of action do teachers use when they teach mathematics in play? and (2) What implications may different ways of teaching have for children's learning opportunities? The analysis revealed four different categories: confirming direction of interest; providing strategies; situating known concepts; and challenging concept meaning. As these differ regarding both the mathematics content focused on and the kind of knowledge emphasized, they have implications for children's learning opportunities.

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

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.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This survey, "Life and Health—Young People 2005," included all 15/16-year-old adolescents in mainstream schools in the county of Örebro, Sweden. Just students with a slight/mild or moderate hearing loss were included. There were 56 (1.9%) "hard-of-hearing (HH) students with multiple disabilities," 93 (3.1%) students who were "just HH," 282 (9.7%) students with some "other disability than HH," and 2,488 (85.2%) students with "no disability." "HH with multiple disabilities" reported considerably higher scores for mental symptoms, substance use, and school problems than the "no disability" group. Those with "just HH" and those with "other disability than HH" had more mental symptoms and school problems than the "no disability" group but no significant differences in substance use. In conclusion, the combination of a hearing loss and some other disability strongly increases the risk for mental symptoms, school problems, and substance use. This group, thus, is an important target for preventive measures.

- This article reports on a participatory design project conducted with K-12 schools in the US and Sweden to create an international collaboration on Marine Biology using video production as a tool for learning and representation. The aim of the project was to explore teachers' challenges and strategies due to digitalization and new curricular demands through a lens of sociocultural perspectives. Cultural Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) was used to understand and support participating teachers' development as well as the design process. Using the CHAT model as a design tool enabled teachers to grasp a complex learning environment and frame contradictions and tensions in the activity. Challenges in terms of curricular demands and media literacy could be identified and addressed as part of interacting activity systems, and the process enabled expansion of knowledge and ideas for both design and future work practice.
