    Language policies in STEM subjects: triggering inclusion, exclusion, or abjection?2023Ingår i: Discourse and Communication for Sustainable Education, E-ISSN 2255-7547, Vol. 14, nr 1, s. 85-98Artikel i tidskrift (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    The combination of language policies, the global testing industry, and the role of STEMsubjects in school systems have been shown to undermine the inclusion of all pupils,especially with regard to language backgrounds. This lack of inclusion shows signs ofdeveloping into a point of systematic exclusion for those students. In this article we willconsider the language policies in two national contexts, the Swedish and the Luxem-bourgish ones, and specifically examine issues of in(ex)clusion in relation to multi-lingualism in STEM teaching. This study analyzes policy documents on (1) inclusion,(2)language use, and (3) STEM teaching at school in the two national contexts, using amethodology that builds on Popkewitzís (2013; 2014) approach to politics of schooling.Our results show, first, that different policies on language and multilingualism becomevisible in policy documents for primary school teaching in Sweden and Luxembourg.Secondly, this article discusses what impacts these policies may have on matters of inclu-sion, exclusion, or abjection in STEM teaching contexts at primary schools.

    The stealth policy of inclusion of students with intellectual disability2022Ingår i: Education and involvement in precarious times: Abstract book, NERA conference 2022 / [ed] Mikael Dal, University of Iceland , 2022, s. 1039-1039Konferensbidrag (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    The Swedish school system is currently undergoing a change, one in which issues of inclusion for students with ID are at stake. Policy documents mirror ideas, beliefs and value systems that are expressed in the society. In order to better understand the processes of in(ex)clusion of students with ID there is a need to analyze policy. In this study we have analyzed 61 parliamentary texts, such as propositions, decisions and investigations from 2011- 2021 considering compulsory school for students with intellectual disabilities, CSSID (Grundsärskola). Specifically, the analysis focused on how inclusion and students with intellectual disability were fabricated by contemporary policy discourses. Findings indicated that inclusion was fabricated as equal rights to schooling, as the right to be assessed and accountability and as being closer to the norm. Furthermore, the results show a strive for alignment of the structure of schools for children without ID and children with ID to synchronize the work between the school forms, and that much emphasis is put on students’ equal participation in the assessment of knowledge. This seems to mean “sameness” regarding hours, and systems in place for assessment. From this our conclusion is that inclusion is above all to be an active neoliberal subject and the most important thing is then that the organizational structures are in alignment. Hence/ this is example on what Allan (2015) calls the Stealth bureaucracy in Sally Tomlinsson’s irresistible rise of the SEN industry.

    Abstract [en]

    Multilingual students’ participation in national tests in mathematics – discursive prerequisites. This article explores discursive prerequisites in test-taking for second language learners with other mother tongues than Swedish. Four students were interviewed in 2016 during their final year of compulsory school. The results imply that multilingual students are positioned as disadvantaged within testing. This phenomenon is mainly situated in a competitive discourse with several subordinated discourses that further position the students: A discourse of justice positioned the students as being sorted or left behind, a discourse of handling the assessment positioned the students as caretakers and a discourse of future challenges positioned the students as struggling while learning, being capable to learn or facing positive challenges. The results imply that national testing is a personal and relational experience and gives rise to issues of legitimacy and equality. These issues should be considered in policy-making, the construction and the carrying out of tests as well as in the conclusions which are based on the results on individual, group and organisational levels.

    Evaluation of Swedish educational material2021Ingår i: ECER 2021: Session information, 2021Konferensbidrag (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    Swedisch schools emphasize that school is for all and inclusive, although the concept of inclusion is not mentioned in the curricula or school act (SFS, 210:800). The right to adaptions and accessibility for students with disabilities has been re-enforced in the Discrimination act since 2009, as accessibility is stated as a legal right for students with disabilities (SFS, 2008:567). Also, the UNs convention of the rights of the child is law in Sweden. In order to develop knowledge about what inclusive materials is, a conference was arranged on the topic of inclusion in cooperation with Örebro University. Various teachers and scientists attended and responded to a survey on inclusive materials. The results mirror what is stipulated in the governing documents and how inclusion is displayed at the participating school, Domsjöskolan. Findings indicate that if a material will be inclusive or not, depends on the teacher’s knowledge about it, their relation to the student at hand, and the learning environment, methods, approaches, the use of compensatory tools, issues of access, and the use of technology. The criteria for evaluating materials, that was developed in Germany, has been further adjusted in cooperation with the participating school in order to incorporate aspects to help reflect on the accessibility of the learning environment and subject specific concepts and elements in mathematics. An inventory of materials used and investigation regarding what inclusion might mean and how it is organized has also been initiated on the participating school and municipality. In addition, an overview of inclusionary materials in mathematics is under production.

    Abstract [en]

    This article discusses social dimensions connected to assessment in mathematics for second language learners in Sweden. The data consist of two semi-structured interviews with students in the ninth grade of compulsory school. Foucault’s thinking on discourse and positioning was advocated as a frame for analysis. The units for analysis were students’ statements about caring and the other in connection to the display of knowledge in mathematics. Results show that caring of and for others are important resources in managing assessment and believing in the future.

    Opportunities to display knowledge during national assessment in mathematics: a matter of access and participation2022Ingår i: European Journal of Special Needs Education, ISSN 0885-6257, E-ISSN 1469-591X, Vol. 37, nr 1, s. 104-117Artikel i tidskrift (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    Students with special educational needs (SEN) are systematically hindered in their participation in test-taking and, as a result, are also excluded from participating in high-quality learning. Hence, participation in the assessment situation is connected to power relations and future prospects and possibilities to participate in society. This article explores aspects of participation in a standardised and national assessment in Sweden by scrutinising a moment of mandatory national testing in mathematics with students in need of special education. The conclusions are that layers of access and levels of participation are established as the result of complex movements between communication, support, relations and the mathematics involved.

    Participation as both a discursive/positional and narrative/lived issue of shifting frontiers2021Ingår i: NORSMA10 Symposium 3: Equal access for all learners to quality mathematics education, 2021Konferensbidrag (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    Assessment in mathematics is about being able to participate at a high degree. Although participation is a concept well-used in research in mathematics education, alongside with theories about acquisition (e.g., Sfard, 1998). These tend to focus on slightly different aspects of participation. However, what needs to be explored when actually all student’s opportunities to display knowledge is put forth tends to be neglected. When one turns the analytical focus towards critical disability studies, the valuing of mathematical content seems to be lacking (Authors, 2018; Authors, 2019). What does this imply?

    This proposal explores the current frontiers of assessment through a model that privileges heritage in disability studies (Jansson, 2006; 2010). The model centres on prerequisites that stem from the interplay between the individual and the environment. These two generate the core elements for displaying and exploring levels of participation in the moment of assessment and for understanding the extent to which opportunity to display mathematical content is indeed enacted. The model has the potential to lead to the identification of borders between levels of participation and how the interplay between individual and environment affects the opportunities to display mathematical knowledge. Furthermore, it allows for identifying and exploring connections between or transgressions of boarders.  In other words, what kind of adaptions or support that is needed.

    The model has been used to analyse a moment of national assessment in mathematics and in which a student worked with a special education teacher. During this, the movement between levels in the model revealed an interplay between levels of participation and the mathematical content. In order for this to happen, the relation between teachers and the special education teacher and student, was crucial. Adaptions and decisions were made instantly and ongoing by the special education teacher. Likewise, by looking at movements between levels of participation one realizes that the dynamicity of participation springs from an interdependence between caring and educating (both pedagogical and curricular) practices. I argue that in expanding or challenging today’s frontiers of participation, there is a need to explore the interplay between lived personal experiences and the discourses on learning, knowledge, assessment and mathematics in society. Questions regarding how research can contribute to this dynamic interrogation and enactment will be discussed.

    Abstract [en]

    This paper presents and discusses parts of a large-scale [1] ethnographical and longitudinal study that has followed the process of implementing the National Test in Mathematics for third graders (Ntm3) in Sweden during its first three years (2010, 2011, and 2012). Pupil talk from 2011 about pressure and what is at stake was used to construe three positions of need that might characterize pupils during the National Test in Mathematics in their third school year: the position of shame, the position of unfamiliarity, and the position of stress. How these might be handled in educational practices is discussed briefly.

    Abstract [sv]

    Instruktionerna om genomförandet av det nationella provet i matematik innehåller bland annat beskrivningar av hur genomförandet bör gå till, anpassningar göras och elever bemötas. Här ingår elever med annat modersmål än svenska. Instruktionerna förstås i detta kapitel som ett av många styrande dokument vad gäller lärares roll som provgivare. De förstås vidare som en följd av vad som är historiskt, socialt, samhälleligt, politiskt och kulturellt möjligt eller eftersträvansvärt i en nationell provsituation. Mer precist har detta kapitel utforskat framskrivningen av eleven med annat modersmål än svenska under en femårsperiod och för skolår tre, sex och nio. Resultatet har satts i relation till förändringar i svensk skola under samma period. Eleven framträder som en missgynnad provdeltagare framför allt beroende på brister i bedömningsspråket, vilket medför att den riskerar att stå utanför kunskapsbedömningen. Hur detta kommer till uttryck förändrades över femårsperioden och skillnader finns mellan årskurserna.

    Prövningen av en skola för alla: nationella provet i matematik i det tredje skolåret2015Doktorsavhandling, sammanläggning (Övrigt vetenskapligt)
    Abstract [en]

    This thesis presents the contribution to research that my doctoral education led to. My starting point was a large scale qualitative research project (here after called the VR-project) which reviewed the implementation of national tests in the third grade on the subject of mathematics. The VR-project investigated how the test affected the pupils with a special focus on pupils in need of special support. An urge to look further into issues concerning the support, the pupil in need and the test was revealed in he initial VR-project. These issues therefore constitutes the problem area of this thesis. The VR-project studied a total of 22 classrooms in two different municipalities' during 2010- 2012. The methodology used for this project was inspired by ethnography and discourse analysis. The raw data consisted of test instructions, video observations of the actual test subjects, interviews from teachers and pupils about the test, the support that was given throughout the testing as well as the observations and interviews of the pupils requiring special assistance. Activated discourses and positions of the participants were demarcated. The results revealed that a traditional testing discourse, a caring discourse and a competitive discourse are activated during the tests. The testing discourse is stable and traditional. Much of what was shown and said in classrooms, routines and rules regarding the test were repeated in all the schools and in all the classrooms. The discourse on support is affected by ambiguity, which is revealed especially when issues of pupils’ equity is put against the tests equality. This is connected to the teachers restricted agency to give support due to the teacher position as a test taker. The positions in need that are available to students are not the same in pupils, teachers and steering documents. The situation is especially troublesome for pupils that do not manage Swedish good enough to take the test and for pupils in need of special support. Some of the conclusions from this thesis is that the national test format: Disciplines not only the pupil, but also the teacher, the classroom and the school at large. Results indicate that the test:

    Activates a focus on achievementLeads attention away from learning Activates issues of accountability Influences pupils and teachers with stakes involved

    Besides evaluating knowledge, the test disciplines not only the pupil, but also the teacher, the classroom and the school at large. Discussing the national test as an arena for equity might be a way towards attaining equality in education for all pupils.

    Quality and equity in the era of national testing: the case of Sweden2017Ingår i: World yearbook of education 2017: assessment inequalities / [ed] Julie Allan; Alfredo J. Artiles, Oxon: Routledge, 2017, s. 68-88Kapitel i bok, del av antologi (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    This chapter considers quality and equity in mathematics education and addresses how discursive circumstances on national tests position students, particularly those in need of special support, at both the individual and group levels. It discusses that the processes and systemic patterns prompting inequalities need to be evaluated at the local, national, and international levels. National tests in mathematics in students' third grade in school were reinstated in Spring 2010, and to date, third graders have taken national tests for seven years, something that might change given suggestions in a social democratic governmental investigation on national education assessment. In short, it is suggested that tests in third grade be eliminated, since the several purposes of national tests have been deemed incompatible. Throughout national testing in mathematics in the third grade, a secondary purpose was cited as an important argument for tests and connected to the decreased levels of knowledge on the subject: to identify pupils in need of early support.

    Reflections on international education research on global issues of local specifications2022Konferensbidrag (Övrigt vetenskapligt)
    Abstract [en]

    Looking back at the ITM project regarding the advancement of inclusion by evaluating and developing inclusion-oriented learning material, this talk aims at reflecting on the main takeaways from the project, its findings but also experiences in a transnational team regarding the future of educational research in a changing world (Andersen et al. 2022). Additionally, the learnings of a project were and are taking place in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. Dealing with inclusion-oriented learning material in these times decisively highlights their importance for learning settings on varying levels. Hence, the project faced an ongoing transformation and acceleration within the demands on inclusivity. The methods, instruments and especially modes of international research applied and developed in the project will be queried about its significance for harmonizing the centrifugal forces of interdependency and individuality in the scope of educational research (Vogt et al. 2021). Therefore, the talk gives a brief overview over the Swedish landscape of inclusion and digital solutions for educational settings. As the analysis of governing documents and the display of inclusion at a Swedish school indicate, the inclusivity of materials as well as the integration of digital learning elements strongly depends on teacher’s knowledge about it, their relation to the student at hand, and the learning environment, methods, approaches, the use of compensatory tools, issues of access, and the use of technology – a wide range of particularities interwoven with the local conditions. Based on this elaboration of local particularities, the question is asked what significance the international exchange and the comparison of different understandings of inclusion actually has for the promotion of inclusion in the individual partner countries and amongst them especially in Sweden. Additionally, an outlook on further research of inclusion – especially within the digital condition – will be provided which potentially opens up new perspectives for researchers as well as for practitioners all around the globe.

Den stöddiskurs som aktiveras i samband med proven har avgränsats genom att provets instruktioner samt åtta intervjuer med lärare har analyserats. Resultaten indikerar att provet leder till att provdeltagarnas fokus förskjuts från lärande till kontroll och att provets dubbla syften positionerar läraren som både testtagare och testgivare. Detta visar sig som en ambivalens i stöddiskursen och leder till ett pedagogiskt dilemma i situationer där provets likvärdighet sätts mot elevens.

    The discourse regarding the multilingual student in need of support in test- instructions2017Ingår i: ICT in mathematics education: the future and the realities: Proceedings of MADIF 10The tenth research seminar of the Swedish Society for Research in Mathematics Education, Karlstad, January 26–27, 2016 / [ed] Johan Häggström, Eva Norén, Jorryt van Bommel, Judy Sayers, Ola Helenius, Yvonne Liljekvist, Göteborg: Nationellt centrum för matematikutbildning (NCM), 2017, s. 151-151Konferensbidrag (Övrigt vetenskapligt)
    Abstract [en]

    This paper discusses parts of the discourse on multilingual pupils in need of support in the national test in mathematics in the third grade. A content analysis was done on the test-instructions from the years 2010–2014. A shift in thediscourse was seen, from being about students in need to being about students with disabilities. The results show that instructions have moved from a relational towards a more categorical perspective on the student. One implication following this is that teachers receive less guidance in their mission to help pupils who need language support.

    Tillgänglighet till att visa kunskap under bedömning: En fråga om hållbarhet och delaktighet2022Ingår i: Abstractbook för Nationell konferens om särskilda utbildningsbehov i matematik: Att kunskapa om särskilda utbildningsbehov i matematik, Växjö: Linnéuniversitetet , 2022Konferensbidrag (Övrigt vetenskapligt)
    Abstract [sv]

    Denna föreläsning syftar till att diskutera vad hållbar bedömning i matematik är ur ett specialpedagogiskt perspektiv. Med hållbar bedömning utgår jag från Boud (2000) och hänvisar till bedömning som ger eleven möjlighet att både komma åt testsituationen och visualisera sin kunskap, men som också sträcker sig bortom den omedelbara bedömningssituationen. Detta kan till exempel innebära att situationen hjälper eleven att lära sig teststrategier som är hållbara nu och i framtida bedömningssituationer, och att eleven är bekväm med att bli bedömd.

    Dagens utbildning är starkt driven av bedömning i olika former och med en stark betoning på och förståelsen av kunskap som något som behöver synas för att räknas (Bagger, Roos & Engvall, 2020). För vissa elever är det en kamp att visa kunskap. En angelägen uppgift för lärare är därför att stödja eleverna att göra sina kunskaper synliga. Tillgänglighet i bedömningssituationer, påverkar tillgängligheten till progression och en positiv utveckling och identitet som elev i matematik. Detta skrivs fram som ett tydligt uppdrag både i barnkonventionen och skolans styrdokument om att följa, främja samt ge stimulans och särskilt stöd. En utmaning för lärare och forskare är samtidigt att ge alla elever möjlighet att visa sina kunskaper på ett rättvist sätt. Detta uppdrag kopplas i föreläsningen till hållbarhet i en ”bedömningssituation för alla”, delaktighet och tillgänglighet.

    Jag kommer att illustrera detta med exempel från när en speciallärare ger en elev stöd att genomföra nationella prov, samt visa på grundsärskolans arbete med bedömning. För att ytterligare belysa vad som sker i dessa situationer kommer jag att visa på vilka aspekter av delaktighet som äger rum (Jansson, och som kan stödja eleven och även pedagogerna framgent i utvecklingen av undervisningen, det fortsatta lärandet och matematikutvecklingen.

    The Liminal Space Between National Tests and ICT for Teaching and Learning: (Dis)Harmony of Teacher Roles2019Ingår i: ECER 2019 - European Conference on Educational Research, Hamburg, Germany, 3-6 September, 2019: Education in an Era of Risk: the Role of Educational Research for the Future, 2019Konferensbidrag (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    During the last decades, a neo-liberal governing of public education has emerged and been enhanced throughout the school- systems in nations (Au, 2016). Following from this, the vehicle of development in the nordic education systems are anchored in a corporate-logic in which economic competition and technological change have taken central places (Antikainen, 2006). An orientation towards goal-management and a marketisation of the school has been displayed in reforms especially from the 1990s and forward, encompassing choice, efficiency and accountability (Rönnberg, 2011).

    Two examples of this is the very predominant practices of the increased use of ICT in teaching and learning and also, increased emphasis on national assessment (Verger, Lubienski & Steiner-Kamsi, 2017). Both of these practices are in the core of making education more efficient and holding higher quality, which is ultimately the teachers responsibility and something that the schools is held accountable for. Enhancement of knowledge and quality is assumed to be an engine for progress and are at the same time means for the state to govern a system that is imprinted by globalisation, decentrantralisation, privatization and local self-governing (Carlbaum, Hult, Lindgren, Novak, Rönnberg, Segerholm, 2014). Data-use in education have then become important tools for producing evidence, as quality indicators and for the settings of goals (Prøitz, Mausethagen & Skedsmo, 2017), which is seen both in the collection of results from the tests and in the use of ICT in the classroom.

    This contribution explores two of the most prominent reforms made in the Swedish school system the last decade, and that have connections to the above depicted global and neo-liberal logic of governing education. 1: Increased emphasis on the use of ICT in teaching and learning and 2: Increased and earlier national assessment and grading. The Swedish context in particular provides a large number of ICT initiatives, so called one-to-one computing, with both laptops and tablets for each student reported in almost all of the 290 Swedish municipalities (Becker & Taawo, 2018). In addition, national testing has been advanced and is now administered to preschool class, third grade, sixth grade and ninth grade in compulsory school.

    They are both very dominant as institutionalised practices in the Swedish school and we state that they carries with them disparate routines, rules and roles for how to be a teacher. At the same time, the nordic school model is characterized by “providing schooling of high and equal quality, regardless of children’s and young people’s resources, origin and location“ (Lundahl, 2016, p. 3). These elements of equity and quality is also a point of departure and argument for implementing changes in school policy. Although equity is not very well demarcated, and heavily weighted with the neo-liberal logic and in addition, depicted as something the schools and teachers are held accountable for (Bagger, Norén, Boistrup & Lundahl, 2019). Therefore, the teachers role become in the core of these changes and how their space of action within the dominant practices of national testing and use of ICT in teaching and learning, important to explore further.

    The purpose of this article is to contribute with knowledge on the teacher role in the practice of using ICT in education and the practice of giving national tests. Three research questions have guided the investigation: RQ1: What does the teachers role include in the practice of giving tests appear. RQ2: What does the teachers’ role include in the practice of using ICT in teaching and learning? RQ3: What differences and similarities are there in the two settings regarding demands, expectations, norms and routines - what “is” it to be a teacher and go between these contexts.

    Methodology, Methods, Research Instruments or Sources Used: Van Leeuwens (2008) theories was the point of departure in our exploration of the teachers’ role in relation to the practice at hand. Therefore, both of these investigated practices are understood as social practices. We then draw on Van Leeuwens (2008) understanding of social practices and how they shape and contribute to the role of the teachers. Van Leeuwen define social practice from 10 different elements: participants, actions, performance modes, eligibility conditions (participants), presentations style, times, locations, eligibility conditions (locations), resources: tools and materials, eligibility conditions (resources). All these concepts shall be understood in relation to the social practice. Thus, the concept of participant concern a specific role of, for example, teachers and students in the two contexts.The actions were then framed as performed in sequences which includes, for example, the pace of an action, performance modes, time and location (Van Leeuwen, 2008). Teachers are within these assumed to construct specific knowledge situated within legitimate perspectives. Hence, prevalent social discursive practices shapes and contributes to the role of the teachers whilst creating a possible space for action at the same time as the teachers shapes and contributes to the social discursive practice. The empirical material originates from two larger research projects (dnr:721-2013-774; drn: 721-208-4646) founded by the Swedish research council. The data comprise 21 teachers in the national test project and 26 teachers in the ICT project. The material contains classroom observations assisted with video, audio and field note documentation and retrospective teacher interviews individually and in groups. In both projects, teachers were interviewed and observed with the purpose of exploring the role of the teacher in the social practice at hand - but with different focus areas. In the NP project the aim was to look into if and how the student was affected by testing and in the ICT project the aim was to examining the kinds of enacted practices that arise from teachers’ organisation of the physical space, including ICTs, and teachers’ communication. We have in this article revisited the data from both projects, with a common methodology which makes the two social practices and their effect on the teachers’ role, comparable. The analytical procedure was to explore which specific participants (teachers) take which particular actions and in which performance modes they are performed, to which time-aspects and locations for the two practices and thereafter compare the teacher's role. 

    Conclusions, Expected Outcomes or Findings: The roles in the national test practice and the ICT practice are here considered as a liminal space between two different social practices. Individually, these bear with them significantly different spaces, times for action, levels of creativity, kinds of questions, answers and support and essentially how the teacher approaches the students and the tasks. The major differences indicate that in the social practice of ICT, the teacher's role is supposed to promote creativity and stimulate curiosity, creativity and activity. Activity is also crucial in the situation of national tests, but the teacher role is in essence supposed to promote students listening, following and focusing on individual achievement. Further, order issues as sound level and how and where to sit, differs greatly. A conclusion is that between these practices, there is a (dis)harmony of acting as a teacher. When we reflect on the outcome, these practices are significantly different in a way that makes us to consider them as a liminal space. Still, the teacher has to move effortless and presumably seamless between these two systems of norms regarding teaching and learning. In periods, it is not very unlikely that the half of the school day is national tests and the other half consists of some kind of collaborative and creative ICT supported learning activity. The liminal space is crucial to acknowledge in terms of the energy involved in changing role, and also that it might be had for some students to understand the changed appearance of their teacher and the changed demands of the situation. The contrasts between these practices highlight probably deeper questions about what knowledge is in today’s school and society, as well as, for whom education is aimed for, and whose interest it is supposed to serve?

    The governing of three researchers' technologies of the self2018Ingår i: The Mathematics Enthusiast, E-ISSN 1551-3440, Vol. 15, nr 1-2, s. 278-302Artikel i tidskrift (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    This article sheds light on a number of discursive conditions relating to being researchers in mathematics education and with an interest in diversity. The data derived from a self-reflective trialogue (dialogue of three people) between the three authors, three researchers. Two of Foucault’s governing technologies were adopted: technologies of power and technologies of the self. By exploring regularities between these in our trialogue we construed formations of governing technologies in relation to subjectification and subjectivation. We uncovered five formations: “Tensions between mathematics education (ME) researchers from different traditions through processes of normalization and othering”, “Limiting space between ME researchers within the socio- political through dismissal of knowledge”, “The socio-political tradition of a need for theory connects theory and ME researcher's’ self-cultivation”, “The researchers’ processes of self-cultivation connect theory and compassionate research practices”. and “Research on policy statements as resistance towards technologies of domination in society”.

    Abstract [sv]

    Vi kommer i denna föreläsning att berätta om vårt fleråriga samarbete med att utveckla kunskaper om inkluderande och likvärdig matematikundervisning. Detta är både en inspiration för hur forskare och lärare kan samarbete, samtidigt som vi delger en modell för att utvärdera undervisningsmaterial och huruvida de verkar inkluderande. Detta är ett resultat från ett EU- projekt och där både en version för lärare och en version för barn utarbetats i samarbete med forskare och lärare i Italien, Tyskland och Luxemburg. Modellen kommer att presenteras och vi illustrerar hur den kan användas både av lärare och av lärare med elever. För tillfället är även ett fortsättningsprojekt inplanerat och där större fokus kommer att ligga på digitala material.

    Ethical and philosophical dimensions of mathematics assessment2022Ingår i: Philosophy of Mathematics Education Journal, ISSN 1465-2978, nr 39, s. 1-11Artikel i tidskrift (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    This article provides an opportunity to re-think traditional ways of assessing students’ knowledge in mathematics through a discussion of the ethical and philosophical aspects of assessment. This is achieved by applying Bornemark and Cusa’s thinking of humans’ calculating (ratio practices) and reflecting (intellectus practices) capacities on assessment and discussing the possibilities and pitfalls that emerge as these capacities come into use. This is illustrated with the policy and practice concerning the assessment practices of students with intellectual disabilities (ID) in Sweden. The article provides a path for recognizing and reflecting on what kind of knowledge production researchers, teachers, and students contribute to as they engage in assessment. This creates an opportunity to re-think how we fabricate students, knowledge, and mathematics and how we wish to do so in the future.

    Abstract [en]

    Discourses on Inclusion in Media. This article explores discourses on inclusion in articles about education in Sweden’s four largest newspapers, and how these discourses position children, students, teachers, and schools. The findings indicate that the journalistic practices of agendization, accountabilization, factualization, emphasizing, and sensationalization have impacted arguments and increased the newsworthiness of the subject. Inclusion is often discussed in a sporadic and inconsistent way and students and teachers are often positioned out of a deficit perspective. Discourses were demarcated on three interrelated levels: an individual level, an organisational level, and a societal level.

    Digitalized national tests in mathematics: a way of increasing and securing equity?2019Ingår i: Proceedings of the tenth international mathematics educationand society conference / [ed] Jayasree Subramanian, Hyderabad: International Mathematics Education and Society , 2019Konferensbidrag (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    On one hand, the Swedish governing discourse on equity in the context of digitizing education portrays modernization, progress and democracy as a foundation in the equity work. On the other hand, in the context of digitized tests, equity is rather framed within a neoliberal logic while related to all individuals’ possibilities of choosing a ‘good life’, and to compete on equal terms. Not all disadvantaged groups are the target, though. It is mainly boys who are supposed be given better grades, and, in addition, students with disabilities who are supposed to (as far as possible) be able to have the opportunity to show their knowledge during the test. Language or socioeconomically diverse settings are not mentioned with regard to digitized national tests.

    Performance, anxiety and the mathematical self image2014Ingår i: Special Needs Education in Mathematics: New Trends, Problems and Possibilities / [ed] Anne Berit Fuglestad, Kristiansand: Portal forlag, 2014, s. 86-91Kapitel i bok, del av antologi (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    In present pilot study the relation between mathematical performance, test anxiety and mathematical self image is being examined in two Swedish grade 3 pupils. A difference between the high achieving and the low achieving pupils is possible to discern. A negative or uncertain mathematical self image seems to be connected to test anxiety, but not to performance when we look at these two young pupils. The experience of taking the test is affecting the high and low achiever differently. There are indications that the context and the kind of information given about the tests and the pupil's abilities affect both the level of test anxiety and the pupil’s evolving mathematical self image. Educational implications are being discussed.

    Abstract [en]

    The focus of this paper is the conceptualisation of students in special educationalneeds in mathematics (SEM students) in the research fields of mathematics andspecial education. A difference between fields regarding the perspectives takenon the SEM student is obvious in the reviewed articles. Those in the specialeducational field were individual oriented in their view of the difficulties, whilstreviewed articles from the field of mathematics education more often discusssocio-cultural settings. The content in the selected 28 articles reveals that theoverall conceptualisation of SEM student has to do with the social construct ofthe SEM student, as well as with students’ experiences, affects, andprerequisites; with the specific training methods or interventions applied; withspecial areas in the subject of mathematics; with special groups of students; andwith teachers’ knowledge about all these factors.

    The shared duty of special educational support in mathematics: borders and spaces in degree ordinances for pre-service teachers2020Ingår i: Borders in mathematics pre-service teacher education / [ed] Limin Jao; Nenad Radakovic, Springer, 2020, s. 141-161Kapitel i bok, del av antologi (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    This chapter investigates the future shared duties of special education pre-service teachers in mathematics and mathematics pre-service teachers for primary school to support students in need of support in mathematics. Within the Swedish context, teacher education training policy frames special education teachers in mathematics (STms) as the historians of schooling, in that they carry specific knowledge about how students in need of support have been treated earlier, and recognise that current practices and policies have been motivated by the history and culture of Swedish schools. This framing also suggests that they have the expertise in supporting students in need of special support and an understanding of specific disabilities or prerequisites for learning that these students can have. In contrast, mathematics teachers for primary school (MTPs) are framed as being responsible for the overall education taking place in classrooms, being willing to collaborate and learn from other professions involved in the students learning and development, and needing to pay attention to those other professions’ experiences and knowledge. In addition, the teacher education training policy indicates that MTPs are supposed to cooperate, listen, and reflect, whereas STms are to lead, be independent, analyse, and drive school development. Furthermore, the position, role, and authority of STms are not supported by the Swedish Education Act. This together with the sometimes contradictory roles identified by each of the profession’s goals in their degree ordinance could put MTPs’ and STms’ shared duties at risk, and creates a need for negotiation. A possible way forward, in order to counteract this risk, might be shared courses during teacher training. This could presumably prepare for future negotiations and collaborations of roles and responsibilities.

    Directions of intentionalities in special needs education in mathematics2020Ingår i: Educational Studies in Mathematics, ISSN 0013-1954, E-ISSN 1573-0816, Vol. 104, nr 1, s. 41-63Artikel i tidskrift (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    This article builds upon a systematic review of 53 articles in international research journals and makes three main contributions. First, it develops a method for identifying motives, values, and assumptions in research by analysing segments of text in journal articles. Second, it represents a reflective account of research within the field of mathematics education. Third, it captures the ongoing directions of intentionalities inherent in the diverse field of special education mathematics and, thereby, some of the characteristics of the core issues in this field. Three directions of intentionalities were identified: towards teachers and teaching competence, towards enhanced mathematical achievement, and towards every student's learning. The results indicate that each direction has specific limitations and potentials. In order to improve special education mathematics, we recommend that researchers and practitioners remain broadly informed and involved in all three directions of intentionalities.

    Assessment of mathematics in Preschool-class2021Ingår i: NORSMA10 paper session 5: Equal access for all learners to quality mathematics education, 2021Konferensbidrag (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    Early identification of children at risk is essential to prevent and remediate mathematical learning difficulties (Gersten, Clarke, Haymond, & Jordan, 2011), but it requires valid and reliable assessment tools (Aunio, 2019). Measures developed for younger students (<9y) have usually covered areas like number sense, relational skills and counting skills, because of their predictive value for later mathematical skills (Jordan, Glutting, & Ramineni, 2010; Zhang et al., 2020). Studies on mathematical learning difficulties across different grade levels show that number processing (De Smedt & Gilmore, 2011; Skagerlund & Träff, 2016) and basic arithmetic skills (Zhang et al., 2020) seem to differentiate students with MLD from their peers. Consequently, the aim of this study was to investigate the factor structure and grade-level development in the new digital Functional Numeracy Assessment (FUNA) tool for grades 3–9. Students from both Swedish and Finnish speaking schools in Finland participated in the study (N = 4070). FUNA is a digital assessment tool embedded in the VILLE collaborative learning platform developed by the Centre of Learning Analytics of the University of Turku. FUNA consists of seven different subtasks; symbolic magnitude comparison, number-dot matching, number sequence, numerical ordering, single-digit addition, single-digit subtraction, multi-digit addition and subtraction. In the first four tasks, reaction time (RT) and accuracy was used to form an efficiency measure (number of correct items/medianRT of the correctly solved items). Students had 2 minutes to solve as many tasks as possible for single-digit addition and subtraction respectively, and 3 minutes for the multi-digit addition and subtraction tasks. Preliminary results show that there is grade-level development in symbolic magnitude comparison, F (6, 4063) = 213.34, p < .001, 𝜂2𝑝𝜂p2 =.24 (Figure 1). Students in higher grades process numbers more efficiently compared to students in lower grades. In NORSMA we will also present the grade-level development in the other subskills and the factor structure of FUNA.

    Early assessment in mathematics, the ethics in a practice close research approach2019Konferensbidrag (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    One of the latest reforms to increase the equity and quality in mathematics education is mandatory national assessment in Preschool-class. It is supposed to govern the action, focus and professional language of the pedagogues. In an earlier study of preparatory work, policy decisions and assessment material, we discovered that there is a risk for schoolification of the Preschool-class, through this reform. A second risk is that students could be locked into "levels" of achievement and a third risk lies in a potential narrowing down of the curriculum (Bagger, Björklund, Vennberg, Accepted). At the same time, earlier research show that early assessment can lead to positive development for students in need of support (Vennberg & Norqvist, 2018). Deriving from our initial study of national assessment in preschool class, we have planned for a follow up project with the aim to contribute to knowledge of and developing the practice about the preschool class teacher’s work with national assessment in mathematics. During the conference we will present and discuss ethical and methodological challenges in this project. More specifically, we want to discuss what is required of practice close approaches in these ethically demanding situations of vulnerability and assessment in mathematics with young students. A key issue is the opportunities for teachers and researchers to manage the information collected during the  national assessment and handling of sensitive data, how they jointly can contribute to the development and management of the knowledge that generated about students' opportunities to learn and to demonstrate their knowledge. And finally, in what way this might contribute to assessment and teaching in mathmatics continues to have its starting points in the unique assignment of the preschool-class.

    Abstract [en]

    One of the latest reforms in Sweden in order to increase equity and quality in education is making national assessment compulsory in preschool-class (age 6). The claimed political volition is all students’ best possible mathematical development. In this paper, we examine the preparatory work, the assignment to the National Agency of Education, and the assessment material itself, searching for what meaning is inscribed regarding the student, mathematics and assessment. The results imply that the politics of the assessment might exaggerate a search for flaws and control instead of promoting all students learning and in addition contributing to the schoolification of preschool-class.

    Qualitätskriterien von inklusiven Bildungsmedien im Fach Mathematik: theoretische und empirische Rahmenbedingungen2020Ingår i: k:ON - Kölner Online Journal für Lehrer*innenbildung, ISSN 2701-1429, Vol. 2, nr 2, s. 1-25Artikel i tidskrift (Refereegranskat)
    Abstract [en]

    This article deals with the development of qualitycriteria of inclusive teaching materials in mathmatics. As part of an international comparative research design, group discussions were held with primary school math teachers. After analyzing the content of the group discussions there were six criteria that characterize inclusive teaching material in mathematics, including the structure of the material, individualization, collaborative learning, conceptualization e.g. with regard to principles of mathematical education, mathematical task culture and metacognitive support. The findings presented in the form of the criteria catalog provide new impulses for teacher trainings and the development of inclusive teaching material.
