Syftet med aktionsforskningsstudien är att lyfta fram förskoleklasslärares egna åsikter om förskoleklassverksamheten. Det är ett relativt outforskat område, förskoleklassreformen genomfördes 1996. Denna studie ska bidra med mer kunskaper med hjälp av förskoleklasslärares egna berättelser om förskoleklassverksamheten utifrån pedagogernas perspektiv. De fyra deltagande förskoleklasslärarna var ett strategiskt val, de fyra förskoleklasslärarna som deltog i aktionen erbjöds även att delta i studien. I denna kvalitativa studie utgår empirin från de gemensamma samtalen i aktionen. Förskoleklasslärarnas berättelser kondenserades och det skapades två fiktiva pedagoger Aina, som fick symbolisera samarbete, flexibilitet och framförhållning och Berit, som fick symbolisera konservatism, individualism och nuorientering.

Abstract A phenomenon that has been noticed more and more in media and the public space in recent years is what is called guerrilla gardening. It means the illicit cultivation of someone else?s land.

I have also focused on guerrilla gardener?s choice to carry out these actions illegally, without asking for permission, and what impact that could have on the issue of appropriating public space.

Due to the rising numbers of children per class, and the obligation to document and evaluate everything, pressure and lack of time has become a significant issue.The purpose of this study is to investigate four pre-school teachers´ views on pedagogical planning and reflection time.

Förskolegården är ett aktuellt och intressant område inför vår kommande roll som förskollärare. Gården är en plats där vi kommer tillbringa stor del av vår framtid och därför vill vi få mer kunskap om detta ur pedagogers perspektiv.  Det vi fokuserat på är pedagogers uppfattningar och åsikter om förskolegården och detta kan vi koppla till begreppen intelligent action och learning by doing som är Deweys teorier. Dessa teorier handlar främst om upplevelser och erfarenheter vilket vi grundar vår studie på eftersom vi anser att man utvecklas hela livet och att det därför är viktigt att få vara med om olika händelser.    Genom att vi kopplar vår studie till upplevelser och erfarenheter intar vi ett sociokulturellt perspektiv som fokuserar på intresset för det individuella barnet och barnet i grupp.    Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka några förskolepedagogers uppfattningar beträffande utemiljön på gården samt observera vad det finns för material och vad som används av barnen. Frågeställningarna vi använt oss av är: Vad anser den intervjuade pedagogen om miljön på gården i dag? Vad är pedagogernas åsikter kring upplägget av gården? Vad för material finns på gården och vad används?    Metoderna vi använt oss av är intervju och observation på tre olika förskolor i mellansverige där vi intervjuat sex pedagoger och observerat på sex förskolegårdar.    Resultatet av intervjuerna och observationerna visar att i de flesta fall var pedagogerna nöjda med gårdarna eftersom att det ansågs finnas det mesta, exempelvis närheten till naturen där utbudet skiftar beroende på årstid och detta ger barnen möjlighet till olika upplevelser.

The aim of this thesis is to make a contribution to the field of design oriented theory, regarding young children and their way to digital competence. My research question is: How can a preschool with a certain pedagogical ICT-design give the children affordances for media play and for developing a digital competence?The European Parliament points out digital literacy as one of the Key Competences for life long learning. A digital competence is built on basic ICT (Information and Communication technology) skills. Skills you can develop any time during life, weather you are young or old.

The purpose of this study is to understand how teachers in the preparatory class and regular class, in the meeting with newly arrived pupils, plan and carry out their teaching. This in order to facilitate social interaction and learning in the classroom, from an intercultural perspective. The examination was conducted through interviews with four teachers from the schools that I selected. The teachers gave their perspective on their approach to newly arrived pupils, through interviews. The result shows that the teachers have ambitions to start from the newly arrived pupils' own ideas and from their prior knowledge.

This thesis examines how role-playing games can be used as an educational tool in after-school programs and identifies the challenges and opportunities perceived by both students and teachers. The study is based on qualitative methods, with interviews with after-school teachers and children in after-school programs with their observations of role-playing activities in a municipality. The results show that role-playing games promote social development, creative thinking, problem-solving, and language development. Students reported increased motivation and engagement, while teachers observed improved relationships and an inclusive environment where students could explore different roles and perspectives. The research links these findings to previous studies that highlight the potential of role-playing games to develop empathy, collaboration skills, and critical thinking (Daniau, 2016; Trespalacios et al., 2011; Suryani et al., 2020). Furthermore, our findings support the curriculum goals of student influence and situational learning, emphasizing the importance of students' own initiatives and responsibility in educational activities (Lgr22, 2022). The study also identifies challenges, such as teachers' uncertainty about introducing and leading role-playing games due to a lack of expertise.

There is a common belief that the arts contain knowledge of creativity that can enrich the business world. Similarly, the arts are in need of additional support from the private sector and know-how of business practices. In short, there is a need for mutual understanding. With my background as a dancer paired with my studies at the Stockholm School of Economics I have taken the challenge of bringing the two worlds closer together. By changing a social system, like an organization, it is possible to get a better understanding of it.
