Barns inflytande och delaktighet i förskoleklassen
AbstractThe purpose of this essay is to study in what way teachers in preschool work with pupils enabling them to gain influence and involvement in their learning.Influence means being able to make your voice heard which is an important component of a democratic society. Involvement is about being part of a community in which everyone is welcomed regardless of beliefs and opinions. Several of today's researchers believe that learning occurs in interaction between people. Teachers providing meaningful assignments to pupils, they become more motivated to learn.The study is based on observations of how teachers work with influence and involvement in controlled sessions, and interpretations of them. My results show that children become involved in their learning when they are confronted with a variety of pedagogical approaches to learning. The children have influence over time they want to spend on their individual work. The children have no influence over the fundamental planning of the work sessions. However, they have some influence over how a lesson develops when teachers allow their response to influence the continuation of the lesson through discussion, song and reflection.Keywords: Influence, involvement, competent children, interaction
