Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article aims to fill a very specific and acute gap; in addition to the few studies on youth and digitalisation, smartphones and other mobile tools, it is very clear that the field of research concerning these issues in regards to vocational education and training is close to non-existent. By examining male Building and Construction programme students’ collective use of smartphones in interaction during classes, this study contributes to increased knowledge about some of the challenges and possibilities that arise with the digitalisation of vocational education and training. The study uses new and innovative methods regarding how students’ digital activities in the classroom could be captured and studied, and approaches video recorded data through the lens of Sara Ahmed’s ideas of happy objects (2010), and the concept of community of practice (Wenger, 1998). The analyses show how the identity constructing processes that take shape when the students orient towards the smartphone as a happy object intersect with the students’ future vocational identity as building and constructing workers, as well as explicating an anti-school culture.

Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- Fritidsdidaktiska dilemman är en antologi som belyser utmaningar som är specifika för barns fria tid och fritid. Genom röster från yrkesverksamma inom skola, fritidshem och fritidsaktiviteter, liksom från elever och föräldrar, ges inblickar i hur bland annat lärande, vänskapande och kommunikation sker och ser ut i barns förändrade fritid.De utmaningar och praktiker som boken återspeglar är uppdelade i tre teman:Fritidshemmets didaktiska dilemmanBarns och ungas organiserade fritidsaktiviteterBarns och ungas fria tidMed hjälp av de diskussionsfrågor som avslutar varje kapitel uppmuntrar Fritidsdidaktiska dilemman till kollegiala samtal för utveckling av strategier och verktyg för att identifiera och hantera de dilemman som presenteras. Det är därför en bok som passar alla lärar- och pedagogkategorier, såväl som lärarstudenter, särskilt lärare i fritidshem, ledare och tränare i olika former av organiserade fritids-, idrotts- och kulturskoleverksamheter.

Auto Mechanics in English : Language Use and Classroom Identity Work
- 2016
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This is a compilation thesis consisting of three different articles with the purpose to explore the relationships between language practices, identity construction and learning in the context of the Vehicle Program, a vocational program in Swedish upper secondary schools. A feature of the particular setting studied here that sets it apart from the general education of auto mechanics in Sweden is that it was carried out in English.The study focuses on language practices within a community of practice where the norms for second language use, gender arrangements and identity work are negotiated in conversations between students and between students and teachers. The language practices are considered as talk-in-interaction, and identity construction and learning are understood as processes in socially situated activities.The study was conducted through an ethnographic approach, including observation, field notes, approximately 200 hours of video recorded interactions, and interviews with students and teachers. The recorded interactions were analysed using tools from conversational analysis and methods focusing on linguistic activities and interactional patterns. An eclectic approach combining linguistic ethnography, ethnometodological conversation analysis and socio-cultural theory of learning, in particular the concept of communities of practice, form the basis of the theoretical framework.The findings in study I highlight that language alternations are repeatedly used in the workshop as a meta-language to play around with language, which relates to emerging communicative strategies that also produces – and helps contest – local language norms. Study III suggests that teasing in students’ peer relations are not only disruptive, off-task behavior, thereby rendering them important only from a classroom management perspective. Teasing, this study proposes, should rather be seen as an organizing principle by which the students are able to position themselves in relation to an institutionally established language ideology. Study II focuses on how participants invoke and renegotiate conventional forms of masculinity tied to the ability of handling tools. Such micro-processes illuminate how gender is a constantly shifting social category that is done, redone and possibly undone. The findings suggest that new forms of auto mechanic student identities are formed that challenge current dominant discourses about what a mechanic should be.

Collective and individual use of smartphones : Embodied interaction in Swedish upper secondary Building and construction and Hairdresser educations

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This chapter has a special focus on the use of smartphones among students in two Swedish study programs in upper secondary school; one traditionally male education, the Building and construction program; and one traditionally female education, the Hairdresser program. The results derive from a larger video-ethnographic project with the aim to explore the role of smartphone usage in upper secondary classrooms in Sweden. In this project we have used new and innovative methods regarding how students’ digital activities in the classroom could be cap- tured and studied. While the smartphones were used individually to a notably higher extent by the students in the hairdressing classroom, there were significantly more collective features in the smartphone usage of the students in the building and construction class. In the latter, the students showed up what they did on their smartphones for several of their classmates at the same time, we also witnessed situations where the students used each other’s smartphones; interactional traits that we did not witness at all in the studied hairdressing classes. In this chapter, we study what these collective and individual features of mobile usage look like, and what their interactional purposes are. More precisely, the purpose is to study the embodied interactional processes the students engage in when using their smartphones and how these processes relate to their shaping of a professional identity.
