Mångfaldig (folk)bildning för det offentliga samtalet? : Tre minoriteters egna bildningsverksamheter
- 2011
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Folkbildningen i Sverige har, i en mening, varit oförändrad under lång tid, men som vi ser det sker nu ett trendbrott. Nya intressenter eller nya aktörer börjar ta andelar av den begränsade statsbidragsberättigade folkbildningen. Vad kommer det att leda till? Många inom folkbildningen talar i dag om att folkbildningen är omodern och vi undrar om nyetablerandet av folkbildningsverksamhet är ett tecken på det eller finns det helt andra utgångspunkter för denna (Eriksson, 2008)? Det övergripande syftet med studien är att få en fördjupad förståelse av vad det är som händer. Vi är intresserade av två olika frågeställningar. Den första handlar om varför. Vad finns det för motiv och bevekelsegrunder bakom olika etniska eller religiösa gruppers skapande av ”egna” folkbildande verksamheter? Vad är det som gör att de väljer en segregerad organisatorisk lösning framför en integrerad sådan? Den andra frågan rör processen. Vi vill beskriva den process som lett fram till att muslimer, romer och samer agerar på detta sätt. Här är både processen inom grupperna och processen i samhället av intresse. Vi ställer oss frågan om det finns någon relation mellan dessa processer. Finns det företeelser i samhället i stort som kan förklara vad som sker inom folkbildningen och vice versa? Det är också av intresse att se om det finns likheter eller olikheter i de olika gruppernas processer. Frågorna kan preciseras på följande sätt: Hur kan olika religiösa och etniska gruppers skapande av ”egna” folkbildande verksamheter förstås? Hur kan den process som lett fram till detta beskrivas; dels utifrån vad som skett och sker i samhället, dels utifrån de olika gruppernas perspektiv? För att kunna besvara dessa frågor har vi studerat fyra olika fall, fyra empiriska exempel. Som vi nämnt tidigare har vi valt att studera det romska initiativet att starta en egen folkhögskola i Agnesberg utanför Göteborg, det muslimska initiativet i Kista utanför Stockholm att göra detsamma samt det muslimska studieförbundet Ibn Rushd. Vi har dessutom valt att studera samernas situation i detta sammanhang.Muslimerna och romerna har valts med anledning av deras initiativ till egen folkbildande verksamhet, medan samerna valts då deras utveckling skulle kunna tolkas som den motsatta. De har tidigare haft en egen folkhögskola som nu avvecklats. Samerna har status av att vara en nationell minoritet, vilket även romerna har, men inte muslimerna. Muslimer, romer och samer är dock alla tre exempel på minoritetsgrupper i det svenska samhället. Detta aktualiserar frågor kring mångkultur, integration/segregation och majoritetssamhällets möte med minoritetsgrupper.

Expansive design for teachers : An activity theoretical approach to design and work integrated learning
- 2020
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This thesis explores how Participatory Design (PD) and Cultural Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) can be combined and used as a theoretical framework and methodology in a professional development activity for teachers. A shift in the way we view teachers, from implementors to designers who actively construct, invent, and develop the practice of schooling also calls for changes in teacher education and professional development activities. The study presented here explores teachers' work and learning during a professional development activity conducted as a participatory design project between two K-12 schools in Sweden and the USA, using media production to create an international collaboration on Ocean Literacy. The work draws on central notions and practices based on the Scandinavian School of Participatory Design and the Change Laboratory methodology (CL) based on the theoretical framework of expansive learning. The thesis is comprised of three articles answering research questions about what challenges and strategies develop in a design process as a situated professional development approach and how we can understand learning as part of and expanding beyond a design process using activity theoretical tools.The first article presents a description of challenges and strategies developed by teachers in the first iteration of the design process and the results of using an activity theoretical model for collaborative analysis of the process. The second article analyses a CL intervention in the second iteration of the design process, adopted after the results of the first iteration. The analytical focus here was placed on empirical manifestations of the epistemological principles of the theoretical framework of expansive learning. The third article explores the occurrences and cyclicity of the learning actions postulated by the theoretical framework in the same intervention through a detailed analysis of the participants' discourse in the process. The thesis comes to a conclusion with a tentative formulation of design principles based on findings from the studies.The results point to how innovative educational design can have consequences for teachers' work with conflicting needs, tensions, and contradictions at the systemic level of the activity. PD processes in educational settings require toolsand concepts to capture this complexity and create sustainable solutions. In this study, activity theoretical models served as a collaborative tool for teachers to analyse and change their practice and to describe and explain work integrated learning in the design process. The work highlighted the need for teachers' expertise in design as well as the important role of media literacy in the use of new technology. Their active and practical engagement in the materials, basedupon the tradition of PD, must be understood as an important part of the development of agency and volition, and findings suggest that the combination of PD and CL methodologies can serve as a vehicle for expansive learning and new innovative learning designs in educational settings. This approach was conceptualized as expansive design.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The knowledge society of today is characterized by a continuously ongoing technological development and digitalization that steadily calls for new competencies and transforms existing professions. For being able to provide up-to-date competence in a fast-changing labor market there is, perhaps more than ever, a need for extensive cooperation between Universities and surrounding society. A number of different models supporting the civic university has been established, e.g. “entrepreneurial university”, the triple-helix model and the increasingly popular adoption of “work-integrated learning” (WIL). Work-integrated learning offer students authentic learning experiences and create synergy between theory and practice, e.g. by cooperative educational programs, internship, sandwich programs and case based teaching. Beyond the pedagogical benefits with experiential learning, WIL also supports the transfer between higher education and work, i.e. increases readiness, employability and also encourage a more agentic engagement. Furthermore, research results show that WIL-students have career benefits regarding salary in early career and job advancement. Even though, WIL and similar strategies for combining theory and practice seems to have promising pedagogical and career advantages, the theoretical underpinning is still underdeveloped. For instance, the methodology for how learning is promoted and which role external partners could play is vague. At University West with more than 25 years’ experience of WIL a holistic approach to WIL have been adopted and WIL permeates all the Universities activities: education, research and extensive collaboration with the surrounding society. Over the years our efforts have been formalized and a taxonomy for will-activities have been developed. In sum, we know that WIL have promising potential, and we know what to do. But, in a recently performed study at this University, based on focus groups interviews and consolidation of our experiences we identified that even if the question “what?” is responded to, there is an important sub-question to be addressed, namely: “so what?”. When adopting different WIL activities, both small and large scale activities, e.g. a guest lecture or an internship, it is reasonable to reflect on whether these activities are used in an optimal way? What kind of impact does the WIL-activity imply? What could be achieved by successful integration between theory and practice? Could it be visualized?Inspired by models used for integrating technique in education (RAT, SAMR and TPCK-models), we have developed a framework for the progression of work-integrated learning in education. The framework is in a sense a model for “Wil-value”. This framework could be used on different levels and in different context: in a single course, educational program, in research projects, cooperation with surrounding society, mentorship and on partner workplaces.

Teachers’ tactics when programming and mathematics converge
- 2021
-
Licentiatavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Teachers’ everyday practices are embedded in school contexts in which their teaching autonomy is constrained by rules, moral obligations, physical settings,and official directives. When a curricular revision mandated that programming was to be a part of mathematics in upper secondary education, teachers’ conditions changed. How teachers adapted to the new curriculum and how they navigated the tensions and contradictions that they encountered is in this thesis analyzed in terms of teachers’ tactics and policy strategies. The overall goal of the investigation is to contribute to a critical understanding of how mathematics teachers integrate programming in their professional practice and how this integration aligns and diverges from the intentions behind the reform. The empirical material is drawn from nine individual interviews with mathematics teachers that were already proficient in programming. The teachers’ unit plans and other lesson materials featuring programming activities served as a trigger point to delve into further reflections upon their own professional practices. To complete the scene, the policy documents were also examined. These included the mathematics curriculum, as well as related official documents and a collection of institutionally sanctioned programming exercises and demonstrations.Two tactical approaches were made apparent when mathematics teachers began to integrate computer programming in their subject: Dual teaching and Interspersed programming. The teacher’s use of dual teaching practices or interspersed programming are tactics shaped by and in response to the conditions of the new curriculum and their own preferences and views on student learning. These two tactics disclose different ontological commitments in relation to the strategies dictated by the curriculum and reflect a cardinal distinction between planning mathematics activities with elements of programming and planning programming activities with elements of mathematics. Of relevance for teachers and curriculum designers is the understanding of (a) how the notion of programming and mathematics as separate subjects oversimplifies teachers’ actual integration practices, and (b) how the curricular choices made by policy can shape the teaching tactics adopted by educators.

- There is a demand for increased cooperation between higher education institutes and surrounding society, and different frameworks for such cooperation have been developed. University West in Sweden has a profile calledwork-integrated learning which could be regarded as a systematical approach for combining theory and practice.Actually work-integrated learning has become an ideologyfor the University which permeates all activities, i.e. education, research and cooperation with surrounding society. This article is a review, explaining and exemplifying our approach. We will also discuss strategies and challenges for bringing the relationship between theory and practice into a prospering marriage.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Newcomers in Sweden face a problem of learning the Swedish society with respect to laws, culture, democratic values, education system, labor market and aspects of taking the role as a parent. The municipality of Gothenburg and the county administrative board in Västra Götaland are appointed by the Swedish government to educate newcomers in civic orientation. This paper describes some problems in providing distance education for Swedish civic orientation in forms of advanced learning modules (ALM). Requirements for implications for design were gathered through several conducted workshops together with relevant stakeholders through a participatory design approach. We concluded that our design for implications can be processed for future research and used together with a system solution.

Designing for Adaptable Learning
- 2018
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The research in this thesis emphasizes the endeavor of designing for adaptable learning. Designing for adaptable learning is understood as an overall response to designing for integration work. Designing for integration work is thus classified as a special case of designing for adaptable learning. Integration work in this research is understood as a professional practice that aims to improve and support the integration process of newly arrived immigrants (referred to as newcomers) in society. As professional practitioners of integration work, integration workers face daily challenges that are wicked by nature. In order to understand and problematize these challenges, the empirical work of this research was organized and performed within a case of digitalizing the civic orientation program in Sweden. The civic orientation program is a special case of integration work in Sweden, where integration workers organize and provide civic orientation to newcomers in Sweden. Different groups of newcomers are subsequently participating in a required 60 hours of civic orientation and are provided sessions through their native language. The integration workers are responsible for organizing and performing civic orientation through a dynamic process of dialogues, exercises, and more. Integration work as a practice, however, does not incorporate a standardized knowledge base, which provides integration workers a unified way of organizing and performing civic orientation. Instead, different counties and municipalities in Sweden organize and perform civic orientation in various ways. Furthermore, due to the extreme heterogeneity among newcomers as participants in civic orientation, the integration workers are forced to adapt. In turn, the integration workers themselves are heterogeneous due to their different roles, areas of responsibilities, and more essentially, worldviews. In order to understand and problematize the aspects of designing for integration work, an explorative approach was adopted through three consecutive cycles of Action Design Research. The cycles were performed from 2013 until completion of this thesis. The thesis was subsequently governed through three research questions: (1) How to design for integration work? (2)What makes designing for integration work significant? (3) Why do design for integration work? There search questions were addressed and answered through a body of produced knowledge that captures and provides the essential contributions of the thesis. The contributions of the thesis highlight different aspects of designing for integration work, as a special case of designing for adaptable learning. Thus, the contributions are presented and discussed with an explicit bearing toward designing for adaptable learning,as the general class of problems and solutions of this research. The contributions are consequently provided through: (1) an ensemble artifact that is termed a digital platform for civic orientation; (2) an Information Systems Design Theory for adaptable e-learning; (3) a design research methodology that incorporates work-integrated learning; (4) the meta-design of an open learning platform that supports the social integration of newcomers in society; and (5) a philosophical concept that problematizes and conceptualizes the essence of presence in e-learning. Ultimately, the research contributes to the research domains of information systems and work-integrated learning, by providing findings that problematize core aspects of designing for adaptable learning. Furthermore, the thesis extensively discusses the findings of this research by emphasizing a philosophical perspective toward core aspects of the research contributions. Finally, the thesis concludes with a set of limitations of the current research and a brief discussion about potential endeavours of future research.

Meta-requirements for Immersive Collaborative Spaces in Industrial Workplace Learning : Towards a Design Theory
- 2020
-
Ingår i: Lecture Notes in Computer Science. - Cham : Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH. - 0302-9743 .- 1611-3349. ; 12388 LNCS, s. 339-346

- As the digital transformation of society accelerates, sophisticated Information Technologies (IT) emerge and are introduced into organizations and institutions of society. An example of such technologies is the Virtual Reality (VR) technology that has re-emerged and become a frequently used solution for supporting collaboration and workplace learning in immersive spaces. The deep sense of immersion in VR enables users to learn and develop working skills in an authentic virtual space, which facilitates an increased feeling of user presence and mapping with real world working scenarios. However, due to the emerging nature of using VR for collaboration and workplace learning, there are wide possibilities for Information Systems (IS) scholars to explore the prescriptive knowledge space of how to design and theorize VR technologies through Design Science Research (DSR). In this research in progress paper, we scrutinize the question of how to design immersive collaborative spaces for industrial workplace learning, and subsequently perform a preliminary round of literature review to address the question. Consequently, the findings of the review are reported as three meta-requirements, which we target as the contribution and input for further development of an information systems design theory. © 2020, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Education programs with internship components have been around for hundreds of years and are expected to provide knowledge and skills that students need for their future profession and future requirements in a changing environment and market, to move from being peripheral to being a master. The expectation that an internship can bridge different forms of knowledge systems, and thus, contribute to synthesizing knowledge, can easily be taken for granted. However, we need more knowledge about how the relationship between different forms of work and knowledge domains can be understood. The aim of the study is to develop knowledge about the relationship between various models of work and knowledge domains. We examined the organization and implementation of internships in two programs at a university in Sweden, which have internships and state that they see workplace setting as a point of departure to reflect and synthesize knowledge in science and theory. The data consists of policy documents, curricula, and student assessment work and written reflections on internships. The results show the programs have somewhat different conceptions of scientific knowledge, practice, knowledge, and the relationship between. Documents from one program are based on theoretical perspectives, but those from the other program have a practical perspective. In some texts, an internship is viewed as a means of developing professional skills and in others, as a means of theoretically analyzing practice. These differences have implications for pedagogical design, and how students understand and make meaning and what knowledge is developed. We conclude that ambiguity and the formulation of different perspectives may confuse students. To further develop internships pedagogically, increased clarity and transparency are needed at ontological and epistemological starting points and perspectives.

Theory, practice and synthesized knowledge : Students' learning and reflections during internship-periods
- 2014
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Courses with elements of internship are expected to bridge between different forms of knowledge domains and thereby contribute to synthesizing knowledge can easily be taken for granted. This requires a clear and systematic integration of theory and empirical knowledge, which can be seen as complementary opportunities. However, we still need more knowledge about how the relationship between different forms of work and knowledge domains can be understood. We have scrutinized the organisations, aims and approaches to knowledge and learning on internship‐periods at two programs at a university where they outspokenly says that they see workplace settlement as a point of departure to reflect and synthesise knowledge in science and theory. The data consists of policy documents, curricula, student assessment work and written reflections of internship periods. Our results show that there are somewhat different conceptions of scientific knowledge, practice, knowledge, and the relationship between them. While some documents are based on theoretical perspectives other emanate from practical perspectives. In some texts internship is viewed as means to develop professional skills and other focuses theoretical analysis of practice, which have implications for pedagogical design. Ambiguous agendas are also reflected in students' assessments work where perspectives, focuses and reflections in and about situations differ depending on how students have perceived the aim with internship. Our conclusions are that ambiguity and different perspectives formulations may confuse students. To further develop internships pedagogically, an increased clarity and transparency is needed on both ontological and epistemological starting points and perspectives

Can overconfidence be used as an indicator of reconstructive rather than retrieval processes?
- 1995
-
Ingår i: Cognition. - 0010-0277 .- 1873-7838. ; 54:1, s. 99-130
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In a recent paper Wagenaar (1988) suggested that overconfidence can be used as an indicator of reconstructive processes which allow responses based on inference to be distinguished from responses based on retrieval. The ecological models (Björkman, in press; Gigerenzer, Hoffrage, & Kleinbölting, 1991; Juslin, 1993a, 1993b, 1994) provide a more positive view of the calibration of reconstructive responses. In this paper we compare these two views and argue that overconfidence cannot be considered a reliable indicator of reconstructive processes since people may be well calibrated for tasks that require inference, provided that tasks are selected in an unbiased manner. Instead, we discuss two different models: the response-independence model which is appropriate to retrieval, and the response-dependence model which applies to inference. These two models predict different distributions of solution probabilities and they therefore provide a criterion by which we can distinguish between direct retrieval and reconstruction. In two empirical studies modelled after Experiment 1 in Wagenaar's (1988) paper it is shown that calibration can be very similar and quite reasonable both for tasks that are dominated by inference and tasks that are dominated by retrieval processes. In Experiment 2 we show that the two conditions nevertheless differ in regard to the distributions of solution probabilities in the manner predicted by the two response models presented in the paper. It is proposed that the issue of which is the most appropriate interpretation of solution probabilities is neglected, and that the criterion should be of interest also to applications outside the domain of calibration research.

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The development of information technology has urged the enhancement of other fields. Education is not an exception, especially higher education. Accordingly, learning management systems (LMSs) emerged as collaborative and intelligent systems which support learners and educators. This study is performed at a university in Sweden. The university faced to the challenge which was the diverse flora of different IT systems combined with the old learning platform being perceived as outdated. For this reason, Canvas was chosen as the new LMS at the university. Thus, the study aims to discover how the university implemented Canvas in the organization to resolve the obstacle. With the Canvas implementation process, this research exposes the decision-changing process about LMS to draw a holistic picture for the implementation process with the detailed activities, the involved stakeholders, and the stages lasting from 2016 to 2018. The study is based on interviews with four people including decision makers and other stakeholders who have been in charge of the implementation and documents. The interviews are conducted after six months as of the implementation completion. To reveal the implementation process in an intelligible insight, we also demonstrate the expectations of the university on Canvas before the implementation to figure out how Canvas helps to deal with the previous difficulties. Additionally, we investigate on what basic assumptions the design of the implementation was based, list the involved stakeholders with their commissions in the process, and inspect the ways they implemented and accomplished Canvas within the organization. The outcomes of the study manifest what have been done so far and what are needed to be done in the future, so the decision makers have deeper insights of the entire process, whereby they are able to make superior decisions of the improvement. The co-workers, on the other hand, have invaluable knowledge of the organization in which the decisions are to be implemented, as a result, the co-workers ameliorate how a decision should be implemented to produce the best performance. The synthesis perspective addresses the possibility of merging the perspectives of top-down and bottom-up. The study is viewed as a bullet trajectory to exhort researchers within this field to generate more innovations of intelligent systems in general and LMS in specific. Additionally, the research fosters universities or academies which have not applied LMS to their organizations to implement LMS with the purpose of learning process and education quality enhancement.

Informellt lärande i en formell organisation : Om meningsskapande, kunskapsdomäner och kompetens i arbete med kommunala mål
- 2018
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Denna avhandling handlar om hur välfärdsaktörer (tjänstemän och politiker) i en kommunal organisation utformar mål för sin verksamhet. Aktörerna har ett samhällsansvar som innebär att de måste agera för att gå nya behov tillmötes. För att alla ska arbeta i samma riktning behöver tydliga mål utarbetas .Att utforma och konkretisera mål för en organisation med många anställda kan vara en utmaning då det kräver både generell och specifik kunskap ochen organisationskultur som möjliggör utveckling. Det som studerats är lärandets villkor i målformuleringsarbete och hur tjänstemän och politiker tolkar och kommunicerar betydelsen av begrepp i samband med utarbetandet av tydliga målformuleringar. Underlaget utgörs av videodokumenterade observationer av aktörernas diskussioner vid planerade möten. Analysarbetet har genomförts stegvis med fördjupning i hur aktörerna gör för att skapa gemensam mening kring innebörden av målformuleringarna som ska finnas med i de slutliga måldokumenten samt hur kunskap och kompetens kommer till uttryck i detta arbete. Resultatet visar att variationen av yrkesroller och arbetsuppgifter i kombination med olika samhällskrav ger prägel åt den kunskap som används i målformuleringsarbetet. Till exempel utgör den domänspecifika kunskapen (den kunskap som finns inom praktiken och dess sociala sammanhang) och de relationer som aktörerna har till varandra några av villkoren för arbetarmed målen. Villkoren visar sig ha effekter för den kunskap som sedan tolkas,men också för kommunikationen runt målformuleringarna. Exempelvis får vissa aktörer, här benämnda agenter, tolkningsrätt. Ett annat exempel är att kunskapsmässig obalans mellan aktörerna kan leda till längre diskussioner eftersom kommunikationen måste anpassas för att alla ska förstå. Detta blir särskilt synligt i de sammanhang då politiker och tjänstemän diskuterar. Vidare visar resultatet tre inriktningar av kompetens begrepps-, resurs-, och relationsorienterad kompetens som, beroende på vad sammanhanget kräver, framträtt i målformuleringsarbetet. Kompetenserna ger, i olika grad, ett utrymme för agerande. Till exempel upprätthålls de kulturella ramarna (organisationens kunskap och språk) med hjälp av resurs- och begreppsorienterad kompetens medan de utmanas med hjälp av den relationsorienterade kompetensen. Ytterligare en fjärde kompetensinriktning har visat sig ha funktionen att koordinera de övriga kompetensinriktningarna. Koordination av kompetens är kopplat till agentrollen. Kompetenserna är endel av de komponenter som tillsammans med kunskapsstöd (dvs. den kunskap som används som resurs för argument i diskussionen kring olika målområden), kunskapsdomäner och relationer formar kommunikationen mellan aktörerna och villkorar meningsskapandet - ett meningsskapande som antas leda till lärande i målformuleringsarbete.

E-quality in infrastructures for learning in higher education

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Higher Education has through the last decades been increasingly dependent on digital infrastructures (e.g. Svensson, 2002a; Guribye, 2005). The first generations of learning management systems (LMS) was originally designed to support distance education but quickly became the de-facto standard for supporting and developing also the practices of campus-based higher education. In this development we have noticed a tension between the desire to design closed LMS's that aims at providing "all-inclusive-support" for university education and more open and flexible solutions that support open infrastructures for personal learning. Consequently, it is time to re-visit the questions on what constitute the central values of a contemporary LMS seamlessly integrated with open digital infrastructures for learning. In an exploratory study in a Scandinavian University, a series of workshops and focus-group interviews with central informants from faculty as well as representatives from administrative support has addressed the issue of "E-Quality" in higher education. The result indicate that a set of inter-related core values should be stressed. These are briefly outlined below as principles for a framework of e-quality in higher education. (i) The principle of open participationAn LMS should support flexible integration of Open Educational resources (OERs) provided by an open community. Furthermore, the system should invite open access for participants from the surrounding society (i.e. practitioners, students from other universities, and relevant special interest groups) (Berhardsson et al., 2017)(ii) The principle of collaborative creation An LMS should embrace the notion of students as co-producers of instruction, content and learning outcomes. In particular, it should support collaborative authoring and peer-to-peer sharing.(iii) The principle of data-driven developmentA central aspect is the ability to personalize the support for each individual participant, which could be addresses quantitatively through learning analytics (Vallo Hult et al., 2017) and qualitatively through the use of e-portfolios and study diaries.(iv) The principle of work-integrated learningFinally, all priciples should be aligned to support an overarching goal of reducing the borders between studies in higher education, the introduction to a professional career, and the lifelong learning required to develop professionally (Svensson 2004).Further research will shed further light on the validity and the reliability of these principles, and set the path towards a nascent design theory for E-Quality in Digital Infrastructures for learning in Higher Education.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Worldwide, educational interventions (EI) are continuously carried out to support the development of individuals and organisations. Keeping pace with rapid changes in modern workplaces requires continuous learning on the part of professionals. The same requirement applies to professionals in the sector of health and social care. Although research has begun to identify the knowledge and competence requirements of professionals within the sector, we need more knowledge about the implementation of EIs as well as their impact on professionals’ learning in this context. Accordingly, this study aimed to explore professionals’ experience with a work-integrated learning – designed EI that combined web-based lectures and structured group reflections, with a focus on learning and the learning process. Qualitative content analysis of the interview data revealed that the work-integrated learning (WIL) design had a positive impact on individual, as well as intraprofessional and interprofessional, learning. This resulted in an understanding of the fundamentals of professionals’ learning and how it was supported or disrupted during the course of the intervention. Moreover, a sense of affirmation was shown to have an impact on professionals’ learning. These findings may constitute a meaningful contribution to the development of EIs for professionals both within this context and more generally.

- Introduction:Worldwide, educational interventions are carried out continuously as an ongoing activity linked to competence provision and development of the organization. In follow-up and evaluation of the interventions, the result, i.e., the effect of the intervention, has usually been the main concern whereas the mechanism behind the operation of the intervention is often obscured. The aim of this evaluation study is to contribute knowledge to the field of intervention research regarding aspects that should be considered in designing a learning-supportive educational intervention. Such knowledge would increase the likelihood that experiences generated from the intervention are implemented in the daily undertaking.Accordingly, knowledge within intervention research increased significantly since the field expanded rapidly in the past decade. However, critical voices have been raised regarding aspects that are often overlooked in the field and highlighted the tendency that intervention studies frequently focus on the meth ods used to test the intervention whereas the rigor of intervention development and design has not received the attention it deserves. When it comes to educational intervention, concerning the aforementioned viewpoint, the process of learning cannot be lef t out. Studying learning processes and studies in designing education to support learners´ learning process is one of the main areas of interests in Work-Integrated Learning (WIL), particularly in the matter of learning in relation to working life, where the goal is to help the learners to integrate knowledge from education into practice. From the perspective of WIL, the social dimension has a certain influential effect on learning, which should be taken into account. A key word in this dimension is interaction. Nationally and internationally, within health care, recurring training, intraprofessional and/or interprofessional is given aiming to improve professionals' knowledge, attitudes, confidence levels and practices in care, in addition, to enhancing the collaboration to safeguard the patient safety and the quality-of-care. In Sweden, one area that has been debated and discussed regarding competence and knowledge scarcity among professionals and urged for measures to support competence provision, is health and social care for people with intellectual disabilities. In this context, the knowledge that can be applied in development and design of effective educational intervention appears to be almost zero. We are in the opinion that this knowledge gap should be a matter of concern and an area that needs to be explored.Methods:Data was gathered by way of semi structured interviews. Qualitative inductive analysis was applied using qualitative content analysis of Graneheim and Lundman.Totally, 24 individual interviews were conducted with the participating professionals. With guidance of the checklist COREQ, our ambition is to make the research process in this study as transparent as possible which further increases the replicability.Results:By exploring pa rticipants' experiences of the different components in an intervention with regard to their learning and knowledge development, both individual and of the group, in relation to their profession, finding answers to “what works” and “how it works”. Thereby gaining understanding and knowledge that can be applied in the design of future interventions and consequently, fill the existing knowledge gap.Ethics:Approval was obtained from the Swedish Ethical Review Authority, Dnr 35 517 for the project as whole. In addition, a supplemental application to phase two has made and is approved, on September 21, 2021, Dnr 2021-0460.

Developing an educational intervention to support work-integrated learning among professionals in health and social care for individuals with intellectual disabilities
- 2024

Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Continuing education in the workplace has become a crucial part of contemporary working life, in alignment with modern labor market policies advocating lifelong learning. Work-integrated learning (WIL) is aimed at supporting professional development as part of lifelong learning, emphasizing both theoretical and practical knowledge alongside interactive engagement. Despite its significance, WIL within the context of educational interventions geared toward supporting learning and development among professionals remains an under-researched domain compared to its application in higher education focused on student learning. Previous research has shown that the learning process among professionals may follow a different logic compared to that of students in higher education. This dissertation highlights the development of an educational intervention from both an effectiveness and theory-based perspective, with WIL based on socio-constructivism serving as the point of departure. The intervention was aimed at professionals in municipal health and care for individuals with intellectual disabilities. The intention behind studying these professionals’ learning and development was to extend our knowledge of the ways in which the educational intervention influenced the professionals’ learning process and to reveal key aspects that must be considered in further developments of the intervention. Such knowledge contributions can potentially improve and expand future educational efforts aimed at professionals.The development of the educational intervention followed a pragmatic process consisting of three stages described in four individual papers. Data were collected through surveys and individual semi-structured interviews, which were then analyzed using statistical calculations and qualitative content analysis.The findings illustrated that learning and development among professionals did not follow a straightforward trajectory from the completed educational intervention to the learning outcome. The intervention, consisting of web-based lectures and structured group reflections, was found to support the professionals’ learning, with group reflections acting as a catalyst for collective learning and for the integration of theoretical knowledge into daily practice. However, creating the conditions needed for all participants to engage in group reflections was a key issue and should not be taken for granted in future educational initiatives in which group reflections are intended to be used. Likewise, organizational support and encouragement were found to constitute an important driving force in the professionals’ learning. Overall, learning and development among professionals are complex and influenced by multiple factors and mechanisms. Addressing these complexities requires a simultaneous focus on three fundamental elements: the actors involved in the learning process, the educational intervention itself, and the surrounding context. This can be best accomplished through a structured and systematic approach to the developmental process of the intervention. Such an approach could strengthen professionals’ commitment to lifelong learning and contribute to sustainable educational efforts, both economically and socially.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Introduction Interprofessional collaboration in education and practice has been highlighted as a premise for providing good care. Both the intraprofessional and interprofessional impacts have bearing on healthcare professionals' performance and learning. Likewise, from the perspective of work-integrated learning, intraprofessional and interprofessional learning play an enduring part in studies about the development of healthcare organisations and professional competence. Educational-intervention research has become significant, which may indicate challenges the healthcare, for example, the area of disabilities is confronting. Earlier studies on intraprofessional and interprofessional learning have often focused on the learning outcome, whereas the learning process remains unexplored. The learning process is complex and is normally influenced by several factors. Therefore, develop knowledge about the intraprofessional and interprofessional learning processes initiated by an educational-intervention and the factors influencing this process may contribute to educational-intervention research, which is also the aim of the forthcoming study. Methods and analysis An inductive qualitative study design with interpretivism as the epistemological stand will be applied. Professionals in healthcare services for people with intellectual disabilities in four residential settings in Sweden are included in the educational-intervention based on web-based training and structured group reflections. Intended data collections are videorecordings of group reflections and individual interviews. An ethnomethodological approach will be applied for studying the details of conversation and interaction in group reflections. The interviews will be analysed using qualitative content analysis to gain participants' viewpoints of the intervention. Ethics and dissemination Approval was obtained from the Swedish Ethical Review Authority, Dnr 35 517. In Addition, a supplemental application to the extended part of the intervention in the forthcoming study has been submitted and approval was received on 21 September 2021. Ethical principles following the Declaration of Helsinki will be strictly followed.

Dimensions and perspectives of quality in integration work
- 2016
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Social work organizations are faced with rapid changes that increase demands on quality and quality assessment. Before deciding how to assess quality, it is necessary to define what quality means with regard to a specific activity.Defining what is meant by quality is especially important before assessing the quality of integration activities developed for new immigrants. To address these issues, this study focuses on the concept of quality with respect to the efforts made to support immigrant integration in Sweden, through an activity called civic orientation. The data consist of interviews, observations, and video recordings of personnel working in an integration office. The results show how quality is manifested: firstly, in organizational structures for supporting and developing practitioners' knowledge; secondly, in standardized methods and material, and thirdly, in recognizing and attending to individual differences andthe sense of cultural belonging in daily interactions. One conclusion is that the knowledge of the integration workers – seeing and understanding the heterogeneity of immigrants' cultural backgrounds and bridging boundaries – isvital to the quality of civic orientation. That knowledge is central to the future organization of integration work, but could become invisible with a one-sided emphasis on standardization in quality work.

Knowing at work : A study of professional knowledge in integration work directed to newly arrived immigrants
- 2016

Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Currently, new knowledge domains and professions emerge as a consequence of societal changes that transform that conditions for work and work integrated learning. Integration work directed to newly arrived immigrants is one example of such a new professional knowledge domain. In civic orientation, which is the empirical case in this study, quality, standardization and dialogue are explicit strategies that impact the planning, organization and decision-making in everyday work. The interest in this thesis concerns the professional knowledge that is developed in activities aiming to provide heterogeneous groups of immigrants an orientation in the Swedish society. By making activity systems the prime unit ofanalysis and scrutinizing the ways in which integration workers make use of a stipulated course material and interactions in a specific context, the aim is to contribute to the understanding of the pedagogical and communicative knowledge that is developed in practice. The analytical approach takes its point of departure in a socio-cultural perspective on workplace studies. Three separate studies have been carried out in which the empirical data consist of observations,interviews, video recordings, field notes and documents from various integration offices.The results show that different perspectives on knowledge and culture becomes relevant in local discourses on quality in integration work. What distinguishes the integration workers professional knowledge concern seeing and understanding the heterogeneity of immigrants' cultural backgrounds and bridging boundaries.Culture function as an organizing element in work that makes it possible to make distinctions and organize a contextually relevant content that can be elaborated together with the members in the groups. Such work imply transformation of procedures and it is shown that the integration workers develop their knowledge from specific situations to understand the significance of textually mediate dimeanings in other situations. Knowledge is developed as the integration workers move between different situations and activities. It is concluded that the meaning-making involved in bridging between different cultural contexts relies on extensive knowledge in and about the recognition of the other and of interactions based on equal grounds. Negotiating agreements with the members of the groups about how common possibilities and responsibilities can be understood is central for respecting heterogeneity in the process and is at the core of the integration workers professional knowledge. Considering the future development of integration work, cumulative structures are needed that recognize and support the development of the integration workers professional knowledge within as well as between organizations and other related fields of practice and in relation to higher education.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This study analyses dialogue as an aspect of professional knowledge when integration workers are orienting newly arrived immigrants about Swedish society and everyday life in an integration activity called civic orientation. The data consists of interviews with integration workers and observations of classes in Sweden. The results show that using dialogue involves knowing how to mobilise a contextual foundation for mediating between different experience-based meanings and how to re-contextualise information, which requires skilful handling of various knowledge sources. To bridge between standardised information and contextually relevant meanings is central in integration processes and here, dialogue could support future integration work.

- This study focuses on nursing students' internships and how the students are handling the tension created by expectations and dilemmas when using medical records (MRs) in practice. The overall aim of this study is to develop knowledge about what is required by nursing students in order to coordinate and sustain knowledge through the use of MRs. The theoretical approach to learning that has been adopted implies that learning takes place in social activities, and empirically this means that the study of learning and professional knowledge is a matter of studying activities where, for example, technologies are put into practical use, where experience and knowledge are brought to life. The data consists of observations of five nursing students during their second year in nursing school, interviews and ten video-recordings from shift reports. The result shows that nursing students regularly use MRs as a source of information and that they are struggling with transforming that information into action-oriented knowledge. The conclusion is that information systems such as MRs need to be understood and defined by teachers as materials and devices created or adapted to solving practical problems, and should be treated thereafter. Providers of education need to take into account the different types of intellectual or practical knowledge that professionals like nurses are expected to have, where the use of technology cannot be separated from, but need to be integrated into other aspects of knowledge.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The implementation of generic models for organizing information in complex institutions like those in healthcare creates a gap between standardization and the need for locally relevant knowledge. The present study addresses how this gap can be bridged by focusing on the practical work of healthcare staff in transforming information in EPRs into knowledge that is useful for everyday work. Video recording of shift handovers on a rehabilitation ward serves as the empirical case. The results show how extensive selections and reorganizations of information in EPRs are carried out in order to transform information into professionally relevant accounts. We argue that knowledge about the institutional obligations and professional ways of construing information are fundamental for these transitions. The findings point to the need to consider the role of professional knowledge inherent in unpacking information in efforts to develop information systems intended to bridge between institutional and professional boundaries in healthcare.

Electronic patient records in inter-professional decision making – Standardized categories and local hermeneutics
- 2008
-
Ingår i: Paper presented at the Conference on Cultural and Activity Research, 2008, San Diego, USA..
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The electronic patient record (EPR) is a constitutive element of medical practice and serves as tool for planning and implementing care for individual patients. Introducing EPRs is expected to improve inter-professional communication and to support decision-making. EPRs are based on several standardized categories and classifications, where the structure is thought to obstruct the input of unformatted free text and thereby become a time and location independent information-sharing-chart that provide reliable knowledge from different professionals’ perspectives. Much research, which examine digital technologies for storing and sharing information, claim that standardized sets of categories are controlling and precluding the knowledge of professionals. Those studies, however, do not inform us about how the EPR and its information structure interfere with the very process of decision-making. This study, in contrast, aims at understanding how the EPR feature into inter-professional decision-making in everyday activities. We are interest in to what extent the standardized terminology that it is built into the EPR contributes to how staff members reach an informed agreement on “what to do next”. Does the standardization of information determine the decisions made or is it a more open-ended affair? The data collection took place at a hospital ward where doctors, nurses, physiotherapists, assisting nurses and occupational therapists met every week in team-rounds with the purpose of planning individual patients’ care. Nine team-rounds were observed and audio recorded. The result show that decision-making in multi-professional team-rounds is a matter of pre-structuring a “pathological reality”. Information in the EPR is counteracted and recasted into already embodied patterns that conform to the pre-structure. Therefore, recasting patients’ problems involves knowing of how to make sense of information embedded in indexical categories, which simultaneous pre-structure the understanding of the problems at hand. Standardized categories contribute to stabilize items that simultaneously make expectations of knowledge and processes recognizable for actors, which in turn, make them constitutive and perspective setting. Moreover, categories have an indexical logic that is based on a knowing in and about the local work and the institution’s obligations. Hence, the logic of decision-making is not to be found in the technology itself. Instead, the logic can be seen as a locally shared knowing of the indexical meaning of standardized categories and their practical implications. One important methodological implication is that the implementation, design and use of information systems and the built-in conceptual structure need to account for the concrete work these systems are intended to support.

- Electronic patient records (EPRs) are a constitutive element of medical practice and are expected to improve interprofessional communication and support decision making. The aim of the current study is to explore the ways in which access to structured information from multiple professions within EPRs enters into the phases involved in arriving at final agreements about patients' future care. The results show that decision making in interprofessional team rounds involves a prestructuring of a pathological reality. Further, the results demonstrate how information in EPRs is deconstructed and recast into patterns that presuppose knowledge about the EPR's structural organization. This means that EPRs are highly flexible technologies and that their design does not determine their usefulness. A major conclusion is that the members' knowledge on how to bridge between standardized categories in EPRs and their local meanings is decisive for understanding the basic conditions necessary for how EPRs could support interprofessional collaboration.

Framtidens lärmiljö

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Dagens samhälle kännetecknas av social differentiering och globalisering och digitalisering, vilket på olika sätt utmanar traditionella sätt att organisera högre utbildning. För att möta dessa utmaningar arbeta vi i ett projekt att utveckla en såväl fysisk som kulturell miljö som är inkluderande, stödjande samt stimulerar lärande och delaktighet. Det involverar den fysiska miljön såsom möbler, ljud och ljus, teknisk infrastruktur men också social miljö, pedagogik och organisering av högre studier. Men vad innebär det att studera på högskola eller universitet? Studenters lärarledda studietid varierar självklart men enligt Högskoleverket (2010:20) har var tionde student som studerar på heltid högst fyra timmar lärarledd undervisning i veckan och knappt 40 procent av samtliga heltidsstudenter anger att de har nio timmar eller mindre lärarledd undervisning. Det innebär att studenternas vardag domineras av själv-‐ eller gruppstudier. Detta ställer krav på hela studiemiljöns utformning och vi behöver t.ex. fundera över de gemensamma ytornas utformning så att de stöder både lärande och social samvaro för en differentierad studentgrupps olika behov. Vi menar att medan flera projekt och satsningar i Europa har haft studenten eller tekniken i fokus så är lärande utgångspunkten i vårt projekt, där teknik, infrastruktur och fysisk och virtuell miljö, relaterar till pedagogiska processer och aktiviteter som involverar flera olika aktörer. Lärandet omfattar olika aktörer såsom lärare, studenter, forskare och administrativ personal. I projektet utvecklar en inkluderande lärmiljö som stöder ett flexibelt lärande där olika deltagare möts och utvecklas och där mötena och lärandemålen avgör vilka resurser som behövs. Resurserna kan vara materiella såsom t.ex. digitala redskap eller fysisk miljö samt intellektuella såsom kunskaper eller relationer. Men vi tror att det är viktigt att flytta fokus till lärandet och den lärande, och att studera hur och i vilka sammanhang t.ex. de digitala möjligheterna kommer bäst till nytta. Vi ser teknik, ljussättning, möblering i lärosalar och gemensamhetsutrymmen som viktiga delar i utvecklingen av en inkluderande lärmiljö som utgår från ett emancipatoriskt förhållande där uppgiften är att stödja studenternas förflyttning till ett mer centralt och aktivt deltagande i samhällslivet. Frågorna får både pedagogiska och didaktiska konsekvenser och visar på områdets komplexitet, där vi kan utvecklas tillsammans och lärmiljön blir utifrån det perspektivet någonting mer än bara undervisningens innehåll. Vi tar därför avstamp i skolans vardag och de pedagogisk utmaningar och möjligheter som finns.

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- I det här kapitlet beskrivs hur dokumentation kommit att bli en alltmer central del i modern vård och omsorg för att skapa och upprätthålla kunskap om vårdtagares hälsotillstånd och för att koordinera omvårdnadsarbetet. I takt med den ökade specialisering och den enorma kunskapstillväxten inom vård och omsorg har behoven av mer standardiserad och tillgänglig information ökat explosionsartat. I kapitlet beskrivs hur dokumentation utvecklats från privata och osystematiska anteckningar till dagens system baserade på modern informations- och kommunikationsteknik (IKT) där ett stort antal användare kan bidra till och ta del av innehållet. Syftet är att ge en inblick i vilka krav de framväxande informationssystemen ställer på sjuksköterskors kunskaper, dels med avseende på vad som krävs för att kunna använda systemen på ett relevant sätt, dels vad som krävs för att skapa information så att den kan användas både i den direkta omvårdnaden och för kvalitetsutveckling, ledning och forskning.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In both political discussions and integration assessments questions are often raised about social services role in inclusion for people of foreign descent. Such questions are highly relevant in a contemporary society that is characterized by growing social and cultural differentiation. The overall aim of this presentation is to contribute to our understanding of how knowledge about integration work is developed by students who takes part in a webbased, transnational course where they use digital learning platforms for communication, coordination and organisation of learning activities. Analytically, such a focus is pursued employing a socio-cultural perspective on learning where practical actions and the design of the course have been scrutinized. The motive for introducing a webbased transnational course in the area of integration was that there were an increasing amount of refugees migrating to Europe. Integration became a part of everyday work for a lot of professions, teachers, nurses and more. However, working with integration was not something that their professional education supported but they all expressed a need for more knowledge. But integration workers are assumed to have specific knowledge that is necessary to realize their work tasks. In the work with creating an integration-course one conclusion was that all welfare work is generic, which means we cannot only look at the content of the work, instead one must put it into more multifaceted perspective that includes several professionals knowledge domains, service-organization assignment, legislations and cultures related. Simultaneously, another university had the same ideas, which resulted in a transnational webbased course with students from different professional fields. All students, as well as the teachers, where interviewed in the beginning and in the end of the course about their expectations about the content and the form. The results demonstrate that using learning platforms to make sense in transnational education settings presupposes extensive knowledge of the indexicality of categories and concepts, something that could be assumed if the participants' had a shared professional history. Instead, as the students have different backgrounds the teachers have to account for the local hermeneutics needed, and for the knowledge embedded in information and categories. It is in the process of reliving, creating and exposing the meaning of information, that students and teachers actually bring information in education to life. In further development of transnational webbased courses it is important to not see this development as solely technical or organizational questions. To develop courses that increase the possibilities for students in different faculties with different routines etc. to make sense of information may be a much more demanding task than it seems to be. Such boundary-crossing teaching are nevertheless of great importance for the development of integration work as well as pedagogical competence in higher education.
