Abstract [sv]

I denna studie analyseras och diskuteras vilka kompetenser som förskollärarstudenter i Sverige beskriver att examensarbetet har givit dem. Analysen av 114 studentessäer visar sex vetenskapliga och fem professionella kompetenser som studenterna erhållit via examensarbetet. De mest framträdande kompetenserna är färdigheter i vetenskapligt skrivande, ämneskunskaper och professionell insikt. Flertalet kompetenser som beskrivs uppvisar likheter mellan vetenskapliga och professionella kompetenser, som till exempel ett ifrågasättande förhållningssätt. De vetenskapliga kompetenserna möjliggör en analys och förståelse av professionen, en form av ”veta varför”-diskurs. De professionella kompetenserna ger praktiska färdigheter för professionen, en form av ”veta hur”-diskurs. En utvecklingspotential för examensarbetet finns i de likheter som identifierats mellan de vetenskapliga och professionella kompetenserna.

Abstract [en]

The aim of this study is to analyse and discuss the competences Swedish preschool teacher students believe the final thesis has given them. An analysis of 114 student essays identified six academic and five professional competences that the students reported to have acquired, the most commonly reported ones being academic writing, subject knowledge and professional understanding. A majority of the competences identified, for example ‘critical approach’, have characteristics of both academic and professional competences. The academic competences enable analysis and understanding of the profession, a kind of “know why”-discourse, while the professional competences provide practical skills useful in the profession, a kind of “know how”-discourse. The similarities identified between academic and professional competences provide a potential for development of the final thesis.
