- The aim of this RE paper of the EthiCo II-project is to present findings about five teachers’ experiences during an academic year when teaching ethics based on fiction stories. Their experiences about opportunities and difficulties are examined in relation to the theories of Martha C Nussbaum. The empirical data has been produced through two interviews with each of the participating teachers, in all 10 interviews, and notes from meetings where the fiction based teaching about ethics has been prepared. The teachers participating in the study teach RE and are working at three different schools in three different types of municipalities. Three of the teacher teach grade 8 students (14 years) and two of the teachers teach grade 5 students (11 years). The interviews are transcribed and the analyses of the interviews were informed by thematic interpretation procedures. The preliminary findings show that the obstacles often are related to practical problems, for example, to get opportunity to have lessons long enough for the students’ discussions, but also to find good literature that give the students opportunities to widen their understanding about a good life and society. Example of opportunities that the teachers emphasize is the students engagement in the fiction stories and that they bring general competences from the discussions about the ethical content in the fiction texts to other subjects than RE, competences as for example to take other persons perspective and to analyse.
