Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Great expectations have been placed on information and communication technology (ICT) to change and improve education. In research and evaluations, the picture seems to be of expectations not yet realized. To be able to change practice in the area of ICT in education, one key issue often put forward is teachers’ professional development (TPD). This paper investigates an alternative way of stimulating TPD in the area of ICT in education by building on ideas of formative intervention. The aim of this paper is to present an interview model used in a research project as a tool to develop awareness of digital competence and skills among upper secondary school teachers and discuss this as a model for TPD in the area of ICT. Furthermore, the aim is to present early results from an analysis of teacher interviews using the model and discuss the limitations and possible strengths of this model in relation to other models of formative intervention research and change in practice.

TETPD in Sweden
- 2008
-
Conference paper (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Information communication technology (ICT) has been bringing increasingly greater changes in education such as educational system, policies, programs, curricula, resources, teaching methods, and other aspects related to education, among which teacher education is one important area. “Technology Enhanced Teacher Professional Development (TETPD) in Sweden and China” is a three years’ research project funded by The Swedish Research Links. The purpose of the project is to study TETPD in Sweden and China, aiming at exploring status quo of TETPD in both countries, especially teachers´ attitudes, experiences, and understanding of technology-enhanced learning and teaching, and identifying TETPD models and the common factors that contribute to successful TETPD. This paper is based on the findings from the first stage of the project by Swedish researchers, which focuses on policies and status quo of teacher education and TETPD in Sweden. A preliminary comparative study based on the findings from Sweden and China will be carried out collaboratively by researchers from Sweden and China at the next stage.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This study takes its point of departure in academic scholarship that points to how programming – reading and writing code – is the literacy of the future, in other words, non-specialized competence that should be acquired in education in parity with traditional reading and writing skills. The goal is to shed light on how programming can be orchestrated in education to break with the outworn dichotomy between the ‘two cultures’ that C. P. Snow formulated as a gap between, on the one hand, natural sciences, mathematics, and technology, and, on the other hand, the humanities, and social sciences. A discursive analysis of Swedish policy documents and curricula forms the empirical ground for discussing how reading and writing code are introduced, taught, and learnt within Swedish compulsory school. The results show that Swedish curricula are framing programming as specialized knowledge within technology and mathematics, rather than allowing it to be a dimension of several subjects, such as the humanities and social sciences. These findings are discussed in the light of recent studies in education that have explored interrelations between coding and reading and writing texts. The discussion leads up to suggestions for implementing reading and writing code as digital literacy in education.
