Utomhuspedagogik
En studie om lärares uppfattningar av utomhuspedagogik
In previous contact with secondary schools, we have noticed a dull setting for friluftsliv among teachers in Physical Education and Health. We suspected that both teaching and assessment are sometimes conducted in error. Under the provisions of Skolverket the teacher must involve all elements mentioned in the core content of the curriculum and the assessment of students' knowledge may be based only on what is expressed in the syllabus for each course. Research shows that the implementation of the curriculum have failed in the subjects investigated (Skolinspektionen, 2013:22). We have identified a gap of knowledge regarding the situation of friluftsliv in the course physical education 1. Our study aims at the basis of an implementation theory perspective, analyzing the conditions for an implementation of the curriculum regarding friluftsliv in the course idrott och hälsa 1 in upper secondary school in Halland. Surveys were used to collect data. Our results indicate that the majority of the teachers do not understand what to do, while most of them both are willing and able to fulfill their mission.
