Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Från inledningen: Vi har alla en berättelse, en historia över våra liv, med minnen och händelser. Det är berättelser som hänger intimt samman med andras berättelser. Vi berättar, men vi blir också berättade. Fokus för detta kapitel är en kurs vid namn Flerspråkighet och interkultulturalitet i förskolan om 7,5 högskolepoäng som ingår i Skolverkets fortbildningsinsats i det så kallade Förskolelyftet, numera benämnt som kommunförlagda förskolekurser.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The research presented in this paper explores how preschool teachers in Sweden negotiate tensions stemming from perceived cultural dilemmas among themselves, the children they work with, and the children´s parents or guardians. The aim in characterising this process of negotiation is to expand knowledge about how to adapt pedagogically to the increasing diversity of the preschool sector in Sweden. The study is based on focus group interviews with preschool teachers who work in schools where nearly 70% of the children are newly arrived immigrants or have parents or guardians who were born in a country other than Sweden. The interview data were subjected to a thematic analysis. Three themes emerged: Circumventing conflicts by keeping preschool peaceful; Culture as a barrier and opportunity for dealing with dilemmas; and engaging with conflicts as a means of developing the preschool profession. The themes are discussed in relation to Gert Biesta’s concepts of the rational community and the community of those who have nothing in common.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Research aims: This study aims to contribute knowledge about how preschool teachers engage with tensions stemming from cultural value differences among teachers, caregivers, and children.Relationship to previous research works: Motivating this work is current socio-cultural circumstances in Sweden in which preschool teachers are negotiating divergent curricular demands that simultaneously promote cultural diversity and a common tradition. Consequently, teachers are experiencing an increased burden to address societal expectations concerning cultural diversity without appropriate communicative and conceptual tools (Björk Willén et. al, 2013; Lunneblad, 2006).Theoretical and conceptual framework: We draw on Biesta’s (2006) – via Lingis (1994) - conception of the rational community (RC) and the community-without-community (CwC) as an interpretive framework.Paradigm, methodology and methods: Project data was gathered through a series of focus group interviews with teachers in two preschools in Sweden, using stimulus materials designed to elicit discussion about value conflicts and cultural diversity.Ethical Considerations: Informed consent was obtained from all study participants.Main finding or discussion: Teacher engagement with questions of culture and values were organized around discussions of actual and imagined disagreements between teachers and caregivers about activities with preschool children. Analysis through the lens of RC and CwC revealed that teachers on the one hand, reinforced societal values and avoided conflict through invocation of the language of the rational community; on the other hand, from a CWC perspective, they developed insights about the value of conflict as means of gaining insight into the perspectives and cultures of the caregivers, as well as about their professional development.Implications, practice or policy: Project findings have implications for the development of pedagogical and policy tools related intercultural processes in preschool education practice and research.

"Vingar som bär..." – en utbildningsresa från barnskötare till förskollärare
- 2021
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Ur förordet: Denna rapport handlar om en verksamhetsförlagd kurs (VFU) som ingår i en uppdragsutbildning i Göteborgs stad, där yrkesverksamma barnskötare läser till förskollärare. Under våra VFU-besök fick vi ta del av spännande reflektioner och intressanta berättelser som berörde oss på många sätt. Efter att ha tagit del av deltagarnas reflektioner kring ovanstående verksamhetsförlagda kurs kom rapporten att handla om mer än bara en kurs, den handlade om en bildningsresa och om nya perspektiv.
