Rum och plats i didaktiken : Om VAR-frågan i svensk didaktisk forskning och undervisning – exemplet digitalamedier

• The purpose of the article is to argue for a systematic research approach on space and place, the WHERE-question in the Swedish research field of didactics. Two research traditions in subject and general didactics, focusing the WHAT- and the HOW-question, dominate the field. The educational situation of today is highly digitally driven which motivates the relevance of a more thorough and systematic analysis of the WHERE-question. It is argued that Swedish didactical research, and teaching in school in general, has to amplify the attention to the WHERE-question. Space and place are not empty containers in which social life happens to unfold. Space and place determines the communication, interaction and meaning making of individuals – individuals are always claimed by space and place.
