Death in textbooks : Teaching materials analysis for grades 7-9 (English)
Abstract [en]

Death in textbooks: teaching materials analysis for grades 7-9. [Döden i läroböcker: läromedelsanalys för åk 7-9] My purpose is to examine how death is described in the students' textbooks in religious studies. I want to pass on knowledge of what the textbooks concern about death and grief. I will conduct a qualitative text analysis, because it suits well when you want to examine textbooks. The ideas of a secular society might be a reason why questions of life are hidden. They also influence how people act towards each other, especially when someone is under grief and loss. What I expect is that the textbooks used in schools today are lacking information about death and grief. The actual results show that parts of my expectations were correct. Large differences also emerged when looking at the textbooks issued to the current curriculum in comparison to the old textbooks that is still in use at school's teaching today.
