Lindberg, Viveca,1954-Stockholms universitet,Institutionen för de humanistiska och samhällsvetenskapliga ämnenas didaktik (författare)

Te aim of this chapter is to investigate what emerges as vocational knowing based on the main assignments students in a Swedish upper secondary vocational Craf programme are expected to produce. Assignments were chosen as the main focus since they determine what materials and tools are to be used and how they are to be used. In this way they are understood as the core of a learning practice. Methods: three audio-recorded group-interviews and videorecorded sequences of teaching/learning in the school workshop as well as digital photos for the data for the study. Result: Te roots of the assignments were traced to 1920s, while interviews and video-recordings revealed that several changes in tools, materials and safety regulations had occurred over the decades. A conclusion is that although the assignments could be considered old, they still crystallize vocational knowing that is central for carpenters. However, the content of vocational knowing of the 21st century has changed as tools and materials no longer are the same.
