Presentation

I am a PhD student in Education and a part of the graduate school Play-Responsive Teaching in Early Childhood Education for Social and Cultural Sustainability (PRECEC SCS). My thesis focuses on teaching in preschools.

In my research, I explore what teaching can be and what it can become in children’s education within preschools. Using a multi-ethnographic method and video recording as a tool, I study teaching in various settings. My approach involves an open exploration where I observe and analyze the practice of teaching across different contexts.

The thesis is structured as a compilation, which includes a kappa and a series of articles addressing various topics. Together, these components aim to contribute to the theoretical development of play-responsive teaching and to expand our understanding of what teaching in preschool can be and what it might evolve into.

My background as an early childhood educator, gender educator, primary school teacher, and development leader has provided me with a diverse range of experiences related to educational issues in practice. My master’s thesis laid the groundwork for this deeper theoretical exploration of preschool education and was based on action research conducted in collaboration with preschool teachers in Burlöv municipality.
