    Med fokus på samspel: Att använda video i specialpedagogisk forskning2009In: Educare, ISSN 1653-1868, E-ISSN 2004-5190, no 4, p. 81-103Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    The field of special education is characterized by substantial complexity in learning as well as in interaction and communication. Video-observations are especially suitable for studies of interactions and especially interaction with students in communicative complex situations. Video analysis also makes it possible to uncover the "hidden agenda" and the subtle signals that shape relationships, emotional climate and learning in the classroom. In the article focus is on the potential video-observations offers in studies of students in special needs in general and students with disabilities as deafness and hearing loss in particular. Advantages and limitations of video technology are discussed as well as ethics in relation to special educational contexts. Different principles of transcription and analysis, when sign language and manual signs are used in communication, are described. Examples from our research are given as analysis of communication between mother and child, between teacher and student and between students. The discussion focuses on issues that video-recording may highlight, in ways another medium could not, knowledge to be acquired from the analysis and conclusions that can be drawn from the referred examples.

    A psychosocial follow-up study of deaf preschool children using cochlear implants2002In: Child Care Health and Development, ISSN 0305-1862, E-ISSN 1365-2214, Vol. 28, no 5, p. 403-418Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    The aim of the study was to explore patterns of communication between 22 children with cochlear implants (CI) and their parents, teachers and peers in natural interactions over a 2-year period. The children,between 2 and 5 years old when implanted, had used the implant between 1 and 3.5 years at the end of the study. Analyses of videorecorded interactions showed that meaningful oral communication was more easily obtained in the home setting than in the preschool setting.Patterns of communication between parent–child, content and complexity of dialogues, quality of peer interactions, communicative styles of adults, and the use of sign language in communication turned out to be important factors when explaining the result of the CI on the individual child’s development.The children with the best oral skills were also good signers.

    Interviews With Deaf Children About Their Experiences Using Cochlear Implants2005In: American Annals of the Deaf, ISSN 0002-726X, E-ISSN 1543-0375, Vol. 150, no 3, p. 260-267Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Within the framework of a longitudinal study of deaf children with cochlear implants, 11 children with implants were interviewed. The objective was to shed light on what it is like for a child to use a cochlear implant, based on these children's own experience with implants, which ranged from 5.0 to 7.5 years. Six of the children were in schools for the deaf, five in regular classes. All but one used an implant daily. The children appreciated that an implant enabled them to perceive sounds in the environment. Some of the children in regular classes could take part in one-to-one conversations with teachers but had difficulty following teaching and discussions. This observation was consistent with what the children's parents and teachers had maintained. Peer interaction was said to be best when other children had the use of at least some signs.

    "Man får ha riktigt mycket tålamod" Intervjuer med barn med cochlea implantat2004Report (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    According to the UN Declaration of the rights of the Child, issues concerning children should be dealt with from the child’s perspective. In this study, eleven children with cochlear implants were interviewed about their experiences of wearing an implant. The study is theoretically based in modern developmental psychology, emphasising the child’s own activity in relationships and interaction with the surrounding where meaning and comprehensibility are important concepts for a positive psychosocial development to take place. The study is qualitative and the interviews were semi-structured. The children were between 8,5 and 10,5 years. Six of the children attended special schools for the deaf and hard of hearing, five attended general educational classes. Some of the children had memories from the time of the operation and they remembered that they experienced a strange sound when the processor was turned on. There had been certain problems with the processor, like battery problems, too long wires, which could be enervating, and also beak down of the processor. Most of the children now had head-born processors, which the children thought was positive. All but one of the children used the implant daily. The implant enabled the children to perceive sounds in the environment, which the children considered as positive. Comprehension of what was said at home and in the general education class was sparse. The implant enabled the children to perceive and understand simple statements, questions or comments but not more advanced reasoning or discussions. This was in accordance with the opinion of the children’s parents and teachers. The children in the special schools considered speaking difficult. Peer interaction was best when the other children commanded at least some sign language.

    Skolsituationen för barn med cochlea implantat - ur föräldrars, lärares och assistenters perspektiv2003Report (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    The aim of this study was to explore the psycho-social situation for 20 deaf school children with cochlear implants, from the perspective of parents, teachers and personal assistants by means of personal interviews. Half of the children attended special schools and the other half regular schools. The adults maintained that the children enjoyed their school situation, independent of school placement, but the support required for the children in regular schools were not always considered to be at hand. The role as personal assistant turned out to be complicated. The children in the special schools were considered to have good learning opportunities, but too few instances of speech training sessions. Peer interaction between the children and their hearing classmates in regular schools was mainly based on actions and nonverbal means of communication. The children in the special schools had friends in the school setting, but had few, if any, friends at home. The children in regular classes were considered to be doing well academically during the first 2-3 years, but problems arose as the children grew older. The children in the special schools were considered to perform academically as well as other deaf children in this school setting.

    Abstract [en]

    Cooperation between school and home is one of the cornerstones in school policies in Sweden, as well as internationally. During the last decades, questions of parental influence and the freedom to choose schools have come to the fore. The importance of well-functioning cooperation between school and home, aiming to support school performance and improve the pupils’ results, is another issue which has been stressed in policy, as well as in research. When implementing a major change, such as developing bilingual education, it is important to have the support and cooperation of the parents. In this paper the views of parents of pupils who received bilingual education in Arabic and Swedish are presented. Data was collected in questionnaires. In addition to information concerning the educational and linguistic background of the family, the parents gave their views on bilingual education in general, and on the bilingual education their children received, in particular. The parents appreciated the bilingual education and emphasized the importance of both mother tongue and Swedish for their children. They regarded bilingualism as an asset and wanted their children to become bilingual and bicultural.

    Parental views on bilingual education in Arabic and Swedish2010In: Abstracts, Active Citizenship, 2010, p. 187-187, article id 207Conference paper (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    Research topic/aim: Language minority pupils represent an increasing part of the school population in Swedish schools, and the hitherto domineering monolingual norm is challenged by a bi- or multilingual reality. In urban schools 75%-100% of the pupils may have another first language than Swedish and today Arabic is one of the largest minority languages. Minority language pupils are faced with the challenge to develop a second language and simultaneously have to use this language as a vehicle for knowledge acquisition. In order for schools to meet this changing reality and to adapt to the needs of multilingual pupils, several schools are offering an increasing part of the education in the pupils’ first language. Different models of bilingual teaching are being developed based on what is considered possible and feasible within the prerequisites, conditions and resources of each school. In a longitudinal research project, the implementation of different organizational models of bilingual education in Swedish and Arabic in three urban school contexts has been followed. Consequences of developing bilingual education for the schools, the staff and for classroom teaching, as well as consequences for the pupils’ knowledge acquisition and language development in both languages, is being considered in an interdisciplinary study within an educational and societal context. Theoretical framework: The project is framed by Bronfenbrenner’s bio-ecological systems theory complemented primarily by theories of language development and second language acquisition and learning in school settings, but also by theories of school change and development. Information is collected on a societal, organizational, classroom and individual level. In this paper the parents’ views on bilingual education in general and on the bilingual teaching their children are being subjected to in particular is focused. Parents’ attitudes and activities are of fundamental importance not only for the language development of the children but also for their school achievements. A well functioning cooperation between home and school is also considered crucial for school success. In order for a bilingual approach to be successful the school needs the approval and support of the parents. Methodology/research design: Results from a questionnaire study directed to the parents of the children in the project are presented. The questionnaires were translated to the parents’ first language and were answered by a vast majority of the parents addressed. Expected conclusions/findings: The data presented encompasses information about the parents’ background, language use, views on school, on bilingual education and on the bilingual teaching model used in their children’s school and some differences between different groups of parents are discussed br> Relevance for Nordic Educational research: The political discussion of the school situation of minority language pupils in urban schools in Sweden is generally dominated by a deficiency discourse often underpinning the lack of resources and engagement among the parent group. When the parents are given the opportunity to express their opinions even through questionnaires only, a different picture emerges that may contribute to a more nuanced view.

    Skolplacering av barn med cochlea implantat2003Report (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    The aim of the study was to describe the parents' choice of school-placement for their child having a CI, the considerations behind it and the views of the parents and staff on the present and future schooling of their children. The parents of 20 children, their teachers, assistants and itinerant teachers for the hard of hearing were interviewed. Half of the children attended schools for the deaf and the other half regular schools. The most influental background factors affecting the choice were the distance to the school for the dear and the children?s preschool placement. Parents of children in regular schools viewe the school placement in short term perspectives and were prepared to reconsider it if it should not work. Parents of children in the schools for the deaf could alos cinsider a change in schooling although not until their children reached high school. Several of the parents of children in regular classes saw a risk of difficulties in knowledge acquistion as well as in peer relations as their children grew older. Parents who had chosen the school for the deaf considered sign language to be their children?s first language and saw the school placement as promoting both knowledge acquisition and social development of their children.

    Läs- och kunskapsutveckling hos elever som fått tvåspråkig undervisning på svenska och arabiska2011In: Educare, ISSN 1653-1868, E-ISSN 2004-5190, no 3, p. 227-266Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    The article explores reading and knowledge development in pupils receiving bilingual instruction in Swedish and Arabic during their first five school years. Attempts are also made to compare their reading level in Arabic and Swedish. Reading development has been documented by assessment materials generally used in schools, complemented with reading-tests in both languages. In addition the pupils’ results on the mandatory national tests assessing goal attainment in primary school years 3 and 5 are presented and compared to the results of Arabic speaking and other multilingual pupils at the same schools, who did not receive bilingual instruction. Findings show that the pupils from the bilingual classes mostly performed at the same level as pupils educated in Swedish only. They were slightly but seldom significantly behind in reading Swedish but many were proficient in reading Arabic as well. Certain differences in performance are discussed but the material does not permit to draw conclusions concerning the consequences of bilingual education. Other factors and circumstances affecting school performance need to be considered.
