Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Aim: The education system in Sweden has not yet formed a sustainable way into higher education and lifelong learning for students with intellectual disabilities. Discussions on inclusive education nationally in society are ongoing but few concrete examples have yet been implemented. This presentation will present experiences from the first attempt to organize and provide courses for students with intellectual disabilities within higher music education in Sweden. Methods: Two courses were given at the Academy of Music in Malmö, Lund University in 2010 and 2011. The content of the first course focused on the history of music, rhythm and ensemble playing. The second one focused on Opera as an art form with both process and product as means of learning. Results & Conclusions: The experiences show the students' capability to develop and enhance musical expression. However, questions concerning (a) the quality of music education currently available to students with ID, (b) pedagogical approaches in the academy, (c) rules for admission to higher education and (d) different attitudes to widening participation within the academies has emerged and need to be processed.

Vad gör de som hjälper de gamla i hemmet? En studie om samverkan och kompetens.
- 2008
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Denna rapport är en del i utvecklingen av kunskap kring samverkan inom den kommunala hälso- och sjukvården och de olika yrkesgruppernas arbetsuppgifter, samt yrkesgruppernas uppfattning om varandras kunskaper, kompetens och ansvar. Rapporten bygger på resultaten från en studie inom äldreomsorgen i Sjuhäradsbygden. Syftet med studien var att undersöka hur hjälpen till äldre i praktiken är utformad och vilka som ger denna hjälp, genom att ställa frågor som: Vad gör de som hjälper egentligen? Vilka är de? Vad har de för uppfattning om vad andra gör? Men också frågor som: Hur uppfattar de som får hjälpen denna? Vet de vem som ansvarar för att hjälpen ges? Utgångspunkten är den kommunala äldreomsorgen, den formella äldreomsorgen, och vad som händer där.

Naturbaserade aktiviteter i daglig verksamhet och gymnasiesärskola. En studie om personer som lär långsammare och om trädgårds- och naturbruksarbetets möjligheter och begränsningar i ett socialt perspektiv.

Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This study is about people with learning disabilities and nature-based activities. The study has an ethnographic approach and is based on observations and interviews at a daily activity center specializing in horticultural work and in an upper secondary special school specializing in farming. Totally the empirical evidence consists of 46 occasions of observation and 21 interviews. The study proceeds from three questions at issue. How can the interaction between man and nature be understood within the framework of the academic discourse, and which interpretative repertoires are found in the nature-based practice directed towards persons with learning disabilities? How are nature-based activities used in a social pedagogic perspective for social learning and preparation for work-life? How are persons with learning disabilities categorized and disciplined in the nature-based practice? The analysis shows that within the academic discourse a cultural and an evolutionary type of discourse have emerged. The former type of discourse emphasizes the value of nature as being relative and includes a cultural, a pedagogic as well as a social dimension. The evolutionary discourse type instead emphasizes nature as being vital for man. The discourse type includes three directions: nature for everyone, nature as medicine and gardening as social treatment. Within the discourse order of the practice, three interpretative repertoires including nature are distinguished. Nature makes us happy consists of statements such as nature is a positive factor for the wellbeing of man. The interpretative repertoire gardening demands motivation implies that nature is not beneficial to everybody, but rather emphasizes the fact that an interest in gardening is needed. The third interpretative repertoire, nature activities can lead to fellowship, has similarities with the former in that the value is not found in nature itself. The analysis shows that when the floodlight is placed on a social pedagogic perspective in the work with nature-based activities, social learning and learning of vocational skills come into focus. The study has demonstrated that learning with the help of nature-based activities can be productive and develop the participants, who learn to take social responsibility as well as concepts and vocational skills. The value of nature in this context consists of nature-based activities becoming tools for social learning, but also for learning a trade. When another floodlight is turned on and focused on power relations, and instead problemizes the work with persons with learning disabilities in nature-based activities, something else appears. The disciplinary aspects become more manifest and more revealing. Consequently the value of nature-based activities can be explained as that of helping persons with learning disabilities find their “right place” in the distribution of work.

Naturbaserade diskurser i teori och praktik : motiv och argument

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The article discusses how teachers who work with people with intellectual disabilities in a daily activity center specializing in horticultural work, and in an upper secondary special school specializing in farming, argues in favor of the value of nature. The theoretical starting point is based on a discourse inspired approach. Three interpretative repertoires have been identified: nature makes us happy, nature demands motivation and nature leads to fellowship, which all emphasize or deny different values connected with nature. They may also be seen as common resources that can be used when there is a need to legitimate the existence of the activities studied. The repertoires are also discussed in relation to texts about the relationship between man and nature.

The development and implementation of an educational model for Community Service Engineering : Work Integrated Learning and international interaction

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper describes the educational model four partner countries have developed in the context of Community Service Engineering (CSE). CSE is a project co-funded by the European Commission within the Lifelong Learning Programme 2013-2016.All participating institutions start from real-life project work with technology students (EQF level 6 or 7). All partners underpin this project work with a taught programme and the mentoring of the students. All students create an online portfolio in which they illustrate both the process and the final result of their project. (International) interaction is stimulated in the project based course work in various stages and for various reasons. International interaction is also facilitated via the taught programme to touch hot topics and compare between country contexts.The paper sums up the four building blocks which form the educational model and are the stepping-stones to move forward the real-life project work and allow for (international) interaction with students and other stakeholders. In the next paragraphs the paper identifies the prerequisites,process and outcomes that made collaboration for Community Service Engineering possible on the level of institutions, teachers/professors and students. Here we also touch the importance of networking with partners in the field in the various countries. The CSE curriculum also offers new opportunities and perspectives for them. In the last two paragraphs the paper pays detailed attention to the role of the teacher/professor and the future plans partners have for the CSE curriculum. Here the concept of ally partners will be explained and a call to join the consortium will be launched.
