- In this paper, focus rests on the relatively new international phenomenon of therapeutic education. Taking in the fact that this phenomenon is part of the schools’ assigned task to see to the formation of young people, the aim of the paper is twofold: to highlight what rationales that emerge in the formation of young people’s emotions in school, and to discuss these rationales in terms of vital principles of public education for the common good in society. The results are based on an empirical case study of ten Swedish teachers involved in the so-called Life Competence Education, which serves as a contextualisation of this phenomenon. Two rationales of this formation stand out as key; the seriousness of the inward turn of the individual, and the crucial step of sharing one’s innermost. Although these rationales involve collective notions of the students’ emotional well-being, they are quite firmly anchored, we argue, in the single individuals’ well-being.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A central question for this article is how social sciences teachers in middle school (age 10-12) relate to and talk about school’s fundamental democratic values as crucial parts of the teachers' assignments. The article aims to provide insight into how the teachers thereby position and constitute themselves as social science teachers and how this is intimately connected to their didactical practise. Three social science teachers were interviewed and in the analysis various subject positions were identified. The results show that teachers are trying to balance between the subject content they are required to work with, and a democratic assignment which is often interpreted in terms of students’ influence and participation. The difficulties to fully carry out student participation in every day teaching evokes interpretations of the democratic assignment as a question of what general approaches a teacher should have towards students, and a general mission to empower and equip students for the future. These approaches are strongly influencing how the informants construct themselves as teachers. However, it is also shown that the subject content of social sciences to some extent may enforce the possibilities of achieving the aims of a democratic assignment, which strengthens the argument that both the process of becoming a teacher and the challenges of the democratic assignment need to be situated and further developed within the contexts of specific school subjects.

Elevers angelägna frågor : Gymnasieelevers berättelser om angelägna frågor utifrån humanistiska, samhällsvetenskapliga och naturvetenskapliga disciplinära ansatser

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Allt fler studier pekar på ungdomars pessimistiska sätt att se på samhället och framtiden. Denna studie undersöker 55 gymnasieelevers texter om samhällsfrågor de själva ser som viktiga och deras syn på framtiden i förhållande till den valda frågan. I studien undersöks vilka teman som är särskilt framträdande, om eleverna har en optimistiskt eller pessimistisk framtidssyn och vilka typer av disciplinärt färgade ansatser som eleverna använder sig av. Texten skulle enligt instruktion innehålla en nulägesbeskrivning, en förklaring till varför det ser ut som det gör, och en reflektion om framtiden. Texterna har skrivits anonymt och utan koppling till något särskilt skolämne. Fyra innehållsliga teman sticker ut som dominerande: (1) Mänskliga rättigheter (2) Miljöfrågor (3) Sociala relationer (4) Medicinska lösningar och kunskapsutveckling. 21 texter har en optimistisk syn på framtiden, 17 texter har en pessimistisk framtidssyn och resterande 17 uppvisar både ock, alternativt är svårbedömda. Texterna om mänskliga rättigheter skrevs företrädelsevis med samhällsvetenskaplig ansats, medan miljöfrågorna i hög grad hanterades utifrån humanistiska förtecken. Det finns ett visst mönster i analysen som visar att texternas disciplinära ansatser påverkar huruvida eleverna uttrycker sig optimistiskt eller pessimistiskt inför framtiden. När eleverna får möjligheten att i skolan bearbeta en för dem angelägen fråga utan att uppgiften definieras av en skolämneskontext, tenderar de att använda ett brett urval av disciplinära ansatser. Det föranleder en diskussion om huruvida den angelägna frågan bör lyftas ut ur sitt skolämnessammanhang för att möjliggöra för eleven att bearbeta frågan på nya sätt.

Med blicken på möten : Martin Bubers pedagogiska idé i dialog med förskolans praktik
- 2019
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This thesis aims to develop knowledge and empirical understanding relating to encounters between preschool children and their teachers. Supported by Martin Buber’s philosophy of dialogue and research, it describes the interpersonal encounters between preschool children and their teachers as being the most significant aspect of educational practice as well as foundational for learning. This doctoral thesis comprises two studies, both of which are video-documented observational studies conducted at a preschool that had 53 children and ten teachers.The first study, which is a summarised rewrite of a published licentiate thesis, examines dialogue as being a form of qualitative encounter between teacher and child. The focus of interest is the effect on a dialogue when more children join one already in progress. Results demonstrate that the dialogue can be interrupted; interrupted and then resumed with a new participant; interrupted and then resumed without a new participant; or simply continued without a new participant. It is the action on the part of the teacher in these situations that seems to have the greatest effect.The second study focuses on the preconditions of educational encounters. Of interest here are the following questions: what aspects of a teacher’s actions can be understood as forming the preconditions of educational encounters?; what aspects of teaching are significant when it comes to opportunities for educational encounters?; and how can relationship- and knowledge-building dimensions of educational encounters be considered intertwined?Results demonstrate that teachers’ actions that serve to create the preconditions of educational encounters are often everyday and spontaneous, where attentiveness, tolerance, affirmation and extending are significant. These actions often occur simultaneously and are affected by the actions of the children. Together, the results provide opportunity to put words to and highlight how small everyday actions on the part of the teacher can be considered fundamental for educational encounters that simultaneously build relationships and knowledge.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Enligt Skollagen ska utbildning i skolan vila på vetenskaplig grund. I denna studie intresserar vi oss för hur verksamma lärare läser och tolkar befintlig forskning. En utvecklingsgrupp på en skola, bestående av tre lärare och två skolledare, samlades utifrån sitt uppdrag att driva skolutveckling på sin egen skola. Vi valde som forskare ut fem olika vetenskapliga texter på temat skolutveckling, och observerade de samtal som utvecklingsgruppen förde sinsemellan runt dessa fem texter, i förhållande till deras egna utmaningar. Det huvudsakliga syftet med studien är att bidra med fördjupad kunskap om mötet mellan lärares praktik och olika typer av innehåll i vetenskapliga texter. För att uppnå detta syfte utarbetar vi en metod för att identifiera intertextuella möten mellan forskningstext och erfarenheter från skolpraktik, det vill säga tillfällen då komponenter ur forskningstext möter praktikförankrade referenser i samtal. Vi intresserar oss särskilt för potential till praktikutveckling på vetenskaplig grund. Resultatet visar att den vanligast förekommande intertextuella aktiviteten var att deltagarna tog fasta på texternas framskrivna resultat och lät dessa berika deras eget professionsspråk. Ett berikat professionsspråk är den praktikorienterade samtalsaktivitet som är mest framträdande i alla samtal. Deltagarna använder nya begrepp eller får fördjupad förståelse för sådant som de redan har erfarenheter av.

Demokratiuppdrag och demokratiska arbetsformer i grundskolans mellanår : En demokratididaktisk studie med fokus på SO-undervisning
- 2018
-
Licentiatavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This study deals with the democracy mission of school, in which democratic working methods are a central part. The aim is to contribute with knowledge about how teachers as professional actors construct meaning of and shape to the democracy mission of school. Six teachers working in grades 4-6, have been interviewed on two occasions each, and one social science lesson by each teacher has been observed.The study is based on a social constructionist basis. The teachers are regarded as actors in the construction of the democratic mission of school. The results show different democracy theoretical influences operating in the teachers' constructions, and that the didactic dimensions are complex. The teachers value the democracy mission as important and always present in their everyday practice, but at the same time, it appears to be invisible and implicit. The results can be read as a story that begins in a perceived problem where teachers talk about the democracy mission as diffuse, in competition with other obligations, and associated with different dilemmas. However, when the teachers continue their stories, they start to fill the democracy mission with legitimacy, meaning and content. Examples of possible meanings that emerge are to promote respectful interaction between all persons in school, to offer students influence and choices, to encourage students to develop a willingness to participate in and influence the society and an everyday school practice permeated with democratic values.When the teachers describe the meanings of democratic working methods they talk about establishing formal student participation, non-formalized student participation, methods of work which involve cooperation between the students and the learning processes in which the students gradually develop the ability to exercise influence on their learning.The teachers regard the democratic mission as a matter of concern for all school subjects, but the social sciences are given a particular position in relation to both working methods and content.
