Full textDigital teknik finns i dagens läge på många ställen, inte minst i skolan. Syftet med den här studien var att undersöka lågstadielärares användning av digitala verktyg i matematikundervisningen. Studien genomfördes med en kvalitativ metod där åtta lärare i från tre olika skolor intervjuades. Det material som samlades in från intervjuerna analyserades utifrån en innehållsanalys där resultatet delades in i två olika huvudkategorier och sedan i underkategorier. De två huvudkategorierna som uppstod var "Digitala verktyg i undervisningen" och "Lärarnas uppfattning om digitala verktyg". Den tidigare forskning som togs fram antydde att lärarens kompetens påverkar mycket hur de väljer att använda de digitala verktygen. Forskningen visade också att digitala verktyg, om de används i rätt syfte, kan ge en positiv effekt på elevers studiemotivation och matematiska förståelse. I resultatet framkom att alla lärare ser digitala verktyg som något positivt trots att de själva anser att de borde fått mer kompetensutveckling i ämnet. De ser en vinst med digitala verktyg och anser att eleverna blir mer engagerade när de får använda dem. De menar också att digitala verktyg är viktiga för att få till en variation i sin undervisning. Det som framkommer utifrån resultatet är att digitala verktyg i undervisningen har en god effekt på elevers motivation men att lärarnas kompetens inom området måste förbättras. Regeringens beslut om att förtydliga läroplanen vad gäller digital kompetens ställer också högre krav på lärare.

Full textMost of us have probably experienced how digital tools can help us in many areas of everyday life. The intent of this paper is to increase knowledge concerning the attitudes of music and instrumental teachers' towards the use of digital tools in their pedagogical methodology. To achieve this aim, I have posed a number of questions to a small selection of music teachers, working within different learning environments. The results show that the implementation of computer and digital media in teaching is dependent upon whether the type of music taught is classical or pop/rock. The results furthermore indicate that music teachers are keen to increase both their knowledge and use of digital tools. One of the most important conclusions that I have reached is that there is a strong correlation between the personal and private use of computers and digital tools by teachers, and whether or not they are utilized as teaching aids.

Full textThe aim of the study is to investigate how teachers perceive the digital tools' entry into the school regarding reading instruction and students' reading ability. The theory associated with the study is, in relation to learning and mediating tools, the sociocultural theory. Using the digital tools is intended, in accordance to the proximal development zone, to support and guide the students in their development. The data that form the basis for the study's results have been obtained through semi-structured interviews with active teachers. The study's results show that the digital tools can create a variation in reading instruction which, as a result, can increase students' motivation for reading. The result also shows that the teachers interviewed disagreed about a deterioration in pupils' reading ability compared to previous ones. There was, however, a consensus regarding the students' diminished patience regarding taking on larger amounts of text.

Full textThe purpose of this study is to investigate how digital tools are used in the teaching of students in mathematical diffuculties that research has studied, and the effects of this teaching on the students’ mathematical development and learning. The method for this study is a systematic review, where 30 research studies are charted and analyzed. The field of research is surveyed, followed by a profound analysis. The results of the study indicates that there is a great variety in the use of digital tools. The study shows that digital tools are used by letting students follow instructions and solve mathematical problems, for teaching with virtual manipulatives, as accommodations and support tools, for communication and feedback, for game-based learning and for increasing the amount of mathematical practice and repetition. The overall results indicate positive effects of teching with digital tools on mathematical learning and development of students in mathematical difficulties. The results also indicate that the teaching methods in the research studies are mainly based on letting the students interact with the digital tools on their own. This result is discussed based on a sociocultural perspective on knowledge and learning. Implications for further research and practice are discussed.

Full textThe purpose of the study is to examine how teachers describe their use of digital tools in teaching the subject of Swedish and how the teachers’ perceive that pupils' motivation for learning is affected when working with digital tools in the classroom. The study is based on a qualitative phenomenological research approach. The collection of data has been done through a questionnaire on the Internet, which was answered by teachers that work in elementary school grades 4-6, teaching the subject of Swedish, and using digital tools in their every day teaching. The result clearly shows that digital tools are used in several different ways in the subject of Swedish. Mostly, digital tools are used when working with different types of texts, but also for example to blog, show films and to give feedback on pupils’ work. The result also shows that digital tools have a manly positive impact on the pupils’ motivation. For example, one respondent describes that the computer contribute to easier text editing, which makes the pupils more motivated to redo and change in their work. The one case, when pupils’ motivation for learning has been perceived as negative can be linked to the use of digital tools as special support in teaching and the respondent describes that the pupils' sense of being singled out is the main reason.

Den största faktorn är studenters problem med förståelse för analoga och digitala filter, samt filter instabilitet. Det här projektet strävar efter att skapa ökad förståelse hos studenter inom ämnet genom att tillhandahålla ett verktyg för lärare att på ett intuitivt sätt visualisera signalers beteende för sina studenter. Det färdiga verktyget består av analoga filter, digitala filter implementerade i ett inbyggt system och mjukvara för att simulera instabila filter.

Full textThis study aims to create deeper insight in what kind of equipment electric guitar teachers use in their teaching, how they motivate it and also if it is inspiring. The background chapter presents previous research and other literature in the field and also the theoretical basis for the study, the socio-cultural perspective on learning and communication. The data consists of qualitative interviews with three electric guitar teachers who teaches at the school of music and art. The results chapter show the teacher’s view on the subject, - teaching material in electric guitar teaching and how they motivate it´s use and also if it is inspiring. Their teaching materials may be equal but how they utilize them is different What they mean is that an inspirational teaching material also motivates their choice of the same. But the opinion - what is inspiring may also be of a different view. The teaching material doesn´t need to be inspiring. Most important is the inner inspiration that motivates to immerse in electric guitar playing. In the concluding discussion the results are discussed in relation to the previous research and to the socio-cultural perspective on learning. It appears that in spite of the tuition of electric guitar playing the tuition shape depends on the teacher. Sometimes the teacher uses same tools, but they may use them differently.

Full textSyftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur användandet av digitala verktyg sker i undervisningen i engelska på mellanstadiet, hur det utvecklar undervisningen och vilka olika fördelar/nackdelar det finns. En online-enkät och kompletterande intervjuer genomfördes. Enkäten var öppen i en månad och fylldes i av 141 respondenter, och kvalitativa intervjuer genomfördes med tre lärare. Resultatet var att inställningen till digitala verktyg bland lärare är positiv, och verktygen gärna används i engelskundervisning. Dock behövs det mer utbildning för att utveckla användningsområdet för digitala verktyg i engelska. Verktygen anses vara ett bra komplement till de ordinarie läromedel och används flera gånger i veckan.

Full textSupporting students in difficulty can be done in different ways. One way is using digital tools.To get a deeper picture of this, this study has been done with the aim of acquiring the knowledgeof how some teachers in grades F-3 describe their use of digital tools with a focus on studentsin difficulty learning Swedish language. To achieve the purpose of the study, two researchquestions have been used. These are the opportunities that teachers describe that digital toolscreate for everyone in difficulty and how the teachers in the study describe that they work tomanage teaching Swedish with the help of digital tools for students in difficulty. To answer theaim and research questions, qualitative interviews were conducted with three teachers with atleast basic experience of digital tools and qualifications in grades 1-3. The study has itstheoretical starting point in the sociocultural theory where language, mediating tools,appropriation and social interaction is the focus. The results of the study show the opportunitiesthat teachers describe that digital tools create for students in difficulty. It also shows whatapplications and functions teachers in the study are using for students in difficulty. Finally, theresults show some of the teachers' perceived problems and how they work and think to solvethem. After the results, a discussion is presented where the study method is discussed as wellas a discussion of the results based on previous research and the study's theoretical startingpoint.

Full textBased on our experiences, literature and research literature, some teachers experience that certain parts of the subject geometry are difficult to teach about. They also experience that the teaching aids are not sufficient enough for developing their teaching. The research we mentioned is that some students do not get enough teaching to be able to conduct mathematical conversations about geometric objects, to relate the objects to each other and insert them into different contexts. Some students also have difficulties in problematizing and constructing geometric objects. With dynamic geometry and the use of digital tools, students can have more time to develop their understanding of geometric objects being constructed. The aim of this literature study is to compile how research describes teaching the subject geometry with the support of digital tools, and more specifically, to answer the question: How can teaching in geometry, according to research, be developed by using digital tools? To answer the question and achieve the aim of the study, we have systematically presented, analyzed and compiled scientific studies on the use of digital tools in the teaching of geometry. Our results show that digital tools enable exploratory working methods, social interaction and increase some students' motivation and commitment, and that some students van Hiele-level in geometric thinking increase while using digital tools. Finally, we discuss didactic implications such as that digital tools contribute to an exploratory approach and increase students' involvement and motivation. Another implication is that all schools do not have access to digital tools and that technical problems can arise when using these, which can lead to a reduction of teaching time. As a proposal for further research, we see an opportunity to look at how the creation and display of video clips affect pupils' learning in geometry.

Full textSyftet med denna studie är att bidra med kunskap om hur förskollärare upple- ver arbetet kring digitala verktyg i undervisningen. Studien har gjorts på en förskola som noga valts ut eftersom de arbetar på ett genomtänkt sätt med di- gitala verktyg som stöd för barnens lärande. Kvalitativa intervjuer med ljud- upptagning har använts som datainsamlingsmetod ur ett fenomenografiskt perspektiv. Transkribering av data har genomförts med hjälp av en analysmo- dell. Studiens resultat visar att förskollärarna upplever arbetet med digitala verktyg som ett hjälpmedel för deras undervisning. Förskollärarna använder flera digitala verktyg i olika ämnesområden på varierande sätt. Det finns en viss tillbakadragenhet i arbetet med verktygen och funderingar kring syftet av användningen tillsammans med barnen. Detta resulterar i att det ser olika ut i arbetet med digitala verktyg beroende på intresse och kompetens. Slutsatsen av studien visar att det finns intresse för att lära sig mer och att användningen av digitala verktyg ses som ett naturligt sätt för förskollärarna att använda sig av i syfte till undervisning.

Full textSyftet med studien är att bidra till mer kunskap om vilka förutsättningar det finns för att bedriva undervisning i programmering för årskurs F-3, kopplat till teknikämnet. Metoden som valts till den här studien är en kvantitativ enkätundersökning där det ingår lärare som undervisar elever i årskurs F-3. Enkäten distribuerades som en webbenkät och delades på plattformen Facebook i olika lärargrupper. Totalt samlades 84 enkätsvar in från lärare runt om i Sverige. Studien vill visa vad lärare har för uppfattningar, förutsättningar och utmaningar med att bedriva undervisning i programmering samt hur de tolkar de nya kriterierna i kursplanen. Resultatet visar att majoriteten av lärarna är positiva till att undervisa i programmering. Trots det anser många av respondenterna att det finns stora utmaningar när det gäller undervisning i programmering kopplat för ämnet teknik. Några utmaningarna är exempelvis lärarens bristande ämneskunskaper, fördelningen av analoga och digitala resurser varierar från skola till skola samt tidskrävande arbete för läraren från planering till genomförande av undervisning. Nästan hälften av lärarna saknar utbildning eller fortbildning inom programmering och färre än hälften har redan fått kompetensutveckling. Vidare rekommendation jag vill ge till verksamheten är att ge läraren möjlighet till kompetensutveckling inom programmering.

Full textDesde sempre que o homem teve uma enorme necessidade de comunicar. O domínio da língua materna acaba por estar diretamente relacionado com a sua participação social dada a estreita relação da língua com o meio que o envolve. É através dela que o homem comunica, tem acesso a informação, expressa as suas opiniões ou defende seu ponto de vista, partilha e/ou constrói visões de mundo ou produz novo conhecimento. A aprendizagem da língua revela-se pois crucial para a formação do cidadão e para a evolução de uma nação. O ensino do Português, tem sido discutido desde a década de 80, centrando-se a discussão na necessidade de melhorar a própria educação do país. Torna-se fundamental que os alunos saibam ler e interpretar corretamente e que dominem a escrita para que se possam expressar de forma correta e clara. Aparentemente, uma das principais dificuldades das escolas é precisamente ensinar os seus alunos a ler, a interpretar, a falar e a escrever corretamente. Uma primeira mudança no ensino do português apareceu nos anos 80, no denominado “processo de alfabetização nacional” onde já se discutia “Como se ensina” e “Como se aprende”. Esta discussão parece ter alterado o processo de ensino/aprendizagem do português ajudando os professores a refletir sobre aspetos relacionados com a aprendizagem da Leitura e da escrita. O facto de os professores terem perante si uma nova geração de alunos, que convive diariamente com a tecnologia conduzem a uma nova mudança de paradigma onde as TIC terão papel fundamental. O presente trabalho propõe um modelo baseado no uso de ferramentas digitais que visa contribuir para um ensino/aprendizagem do Português mais eficaz. Para avaliar o modelo proposto, foi criado um curso, denominado TAEP (Tecnologias de Apoio ao Ensino do Português) suportado por uma plataforma de ensino à distância e foram levadas a cabo uma série de experiências em escolas do ensino básico (EB), em Portugal, no sentido de aferir o potencial e os constrangimentos do uso da tecnologia no processo de ensino/aprendizagem do Português. Os resultados obtidos evidenciaram que os alunos estão motivados e revelam apetências para aprender com recurso à tecnologia e a praticar a Leitura, a escrita, a Oralidade, a Gramática e o estudo literário com o suporte da mesma. O estudo revelou que a tecnologia pode apoiar o ensino do português no 3º ciclo e que processos de escrita mediados por processadores de texto ou outros meios, gravações de áudio ou áudio/vídeo em PC’s ou dispositivos móveis estimulam os alunos a desenvolver capacidades através da prática, aprendendo assim o estabelecido nas metas curriculares da disciplina. Palavras-chave: ensino de português, aprendizagem de português, ferramentas digitais de aprendizagem, tecnologias de informação.
Man had an enormous need to communicate. Since the very beginning, man has always had an enormous need to communicate. In each country, the mother tongue is directly related to its social participation, given the close relationship between language and the environment that surrounds it. It is through language that man communicates, has access to information, can express his opinions or defend his points of view, share and/or build worldviews or produce new knowledge. Thus, language learning proves to be crucial for the upbringing of citizens and for the development of a nation. Portuguese teaching and learning has been much discussed since 80s, focusing on the need to improve the educational process of the country. It is essential that students can read and comprehend the language correctly, so that they can express themselves properly and clearly. Apparently, one of the main difficulties for schools is, precisely, to teach their students to read, comprehend, speak and write properly. An initial change in the teaching of Portuguese appeared in the 80's, in the so-called “process of national alphabetization”, where the issues on “how to teach” and “how to learn” were already discussed. This discussion appears to have altered the teaching/learning process of Portuguese by helping teachers reflect on aspects related to the learning of reading and writing. The fact that teachers have before them a new generation of students, contacting with technology on a daily basis, leads to a new paradigm change where ICTs will play a major role. This paper suggests a model based on the usage of digital tools, aiming to contribute to a more efficient teaching/learning process of Portuguese. To assess the proposed model, a course named TAEP (Tecnologias de Apoio ao Ensino do Português – Supporting Technologies to the Teaching of Portuguese) was created, supported by a distance education platform, and a series of experiments on basic education schools (EB) in Portugal was carried out, in an attempt to evaluate the potential and constraints of using technology in the process of teaching/learning Portuguese. The results obtained suggest that students are motivated and are proficient in learning through the use of technology, as well as practicing reading, writing, speaking, grammar and literary studying using it as a means of support. The study revealed that technology can provide support in the teaching of Portuguese at the lower secondar education level and that writing processes mediated by text processors y e or other means, audio tapings or audio/video in PCs or mobile devices stimulate students to develop their capabilities through practice, thus learning the contents established by the curricular objectives of the course.

Full textThis study highlights teachers’ use of digital writing tools in text production. More and more teachers are choosing to use digital writing tools in teaching, which means changes in teachers' way of teaching when it comes to text production. The purpose of the study is to examine teachers' attitudes and use of digital writing tools in teaching for students in grades 1-3, in context of writing development and text production. The questions addressed in the study are: When and why do teachers use digital writing tools in teaching?, How do teachers work with text production and digital writing tools?, and, What opportunities and challenges do teachers with digital writing tools experience in teaching? The focus group method has been used where teachers who teach in the current grades have been interviewed. The analysis consists of a qualitative content analysis. The socio-cultural perspective forms the basis for the analysis of the material. The result shows that teachers see many reasons for using digital writing tools in teaching. Teachers use digital writing tools in many aspects of teaching and in many different subjects. Teachers mainly use two different methods: writing for reading (RtW) and writing for learning (iWTR). The result shows that the teacher's role is important for students' writing development and digital competence. Teachers experience both opportunities and limitations with digital writing tools.

Full textThe school has been digitized and digital tools are increasingly used in teaching. The purpose of this study is to further increase the understanding of the use of digital tools in mathematics teaching. The theoretical framework TPACK (Technological Pedagogical And Content Knowledge) has been used to analyze teachers' responses from the interviews. The framework makes teachers' technical, pedagogical and subject knowledge visible. Qualitative interviews with five mathematics teachers in year 7-9 have been conducted to answer the purpose of the study. The results show that teachers experience students' motivation increases with the use of digital tools. The teachers see that the students experience the subject as fun and the learning becomes more pleasurable. Interactive programs where the student answers questions and gets a quick response, are described by the teachers as a good complement to the mathematics teaching. Teachers also see opportunities to personalize teaching with digital tools. The tools have also been shown to capture the interest of weak students in the subject of mathematics.Using digital tools is a way to keep pace with the digitalization of society. For further use of digital tools, teachers see a need for competence development and time to explore new tools that can be used in teaching.

Full textThe aim of this thesis is to execute digital tools in mathematics teaching. The study focuses its attention on how teachers choose the type of the digital tools and carry out mathematics teaching, especially in the subject of geometry. As a future teacher, it will be interesting to investigate the teachers’ views concerning the effect of digitizing on their teaching and students’ learning, as well as the teacher's choice of teaching methods and the design of the teaching within that method, will depend on the lessons of geometry where the use of digital technology is the focus in the classroom. The empirical materials were collected through interviews with seven teachers from three different schools. The data were analyzed with a focus on the ways by which teachers employ digital tools to support and work with mathematical content. The theoretical frameworks in our study are the SAMR model (SAMR is an acronym that stands for four English concepts Substitution, Augmentation, Modification, and Redefinition) that describes how digital tools are used at different stages in teaching and Drijver's orchestration type to identify different teaching methods and describe their characteristics. The results based on the interviews show that most teachers meet requirements for reaching step three in the SAMR model. The study also shows an overview of different teaching methods in mathematics teaching where digital technology is used. The results also show that the teachers utilize several types of orchestration in the work with the subject of geometry in their teaching. In total, this study shows that teachers use up to five different types of orchestration. Generally, all teachers have positive opinions concerning the employment of digital technology in mathematics education, and the utilities of digitization that they spotlight include assisting and supporting students' mathematical knowledge as well as developing their understanding of geometric concepts.

Full textTablets are tools which are used recently both at home and at school, and they have become dominating tools in teaching mathematics in primary schools. Researches show that digital tools are influencing mathematical teaching and learning processes positively. However, digital tools are the least used when it comes assisting mathematical teachings as we compare them with other subjects. That is why this study surfaced to investigate teachers' experiences and perceptions of the tablet as an educational tool in mathematical teachings. Hence, the data selection was made based on how frequently the tablets are used in teaching mathematics. Eight teachers who continuously use tablets as a tool in teaching mathematics from grade 1 to 3 have been interviewed. Through the qualitative method and semi- structured interviewing techniques the following data were gathered: what the eight teachers explained, how they used tablets, which mathematical content was being processed, what possibilities and limitations they experienced in connection with the tablets.Empirics is analyzed based on a phenomenological approach from a socio-cultural perspective. As an educational tool is the tablet associated with the concept of mediation in sociocultural theory to further interpret and discuss the results of the study. The result illustrates that tablets, in educating mathematics, have become additional supports, supplementary tools and even they have become tools for documentation. The result also portrays that the tablets are becoming an individuals’ tools.

Full textThe present study is a result of the ongoing digitalization that has been taking place in both society and the school. Revisions by the National Agency of Education have provided the curriculum with more integration of digital tools and how the students should use and navigate them. This change has also made the demand for teachers’ digital skills to be increased. This leads to the purpose of this study as it is intended to seek a deeper understanding of how teachers experience digital tools in Swedish teaching and how planning and execution are affected. The research questions on which the study is based were: How do some teachers use digital tools in Swedish teaching? What opportunities and challenges some teachers find digital tools entail in Swedish teaching? In order to gain a deeper understanding and hear in-depth arguments, the study has been conducted in the form of a qualitative study in which six active teachers have been interviewed. All collected data has been transcribed and analyzed in the basis of thematic analysis to produce a result. The study's results show that it is primarily competence that controls the use of digital tools in teaching. The teachers believe that they have a lack of knowledge about the digital tools they use, which can lead to them feeling some fear of using digital tools. The opportunities that the teachers describe are increased motivation among the pupil, efficiency improvements and that it seems to be a good support for students in need. The challenges listed by the teachers are the disturbances and the lack of digital tools.

Full textComputers and other digital technology are becoming increasingly important in our society. Due to that, the Swedish Government has instructed their National Agency for Education to strengthen the students' digital competence. One outcome of this was that programming become a part of teaching mathematics both in primary and upper secondary school. Programming is not a part of the mandatory studies needed to become a certified mathematics teacher. The purpose of this study is to investigate the ideas, attitudes and ideas of mathematics teachers that have arisen because of the National Agency for Education's revision of the curricula in mathematics. According to this revision of the curricula, students should use programming as a problem-solving tool. The basis for this study is a transcription of qualitative interviews with ten mathematics teachers and an examination of previous research. This study found that there was some concern among the teachers. Most of the concern was about lack of knowledge in programming. The majority of teachers preferred to use Excel and Geogebra as a digital tool to teach programming. Many teachers expressed spontaneously a general dissatisfaction with the impact that calculators already have in mathematics education. There was some dissatisfaction with the introduction of this new requirement at very short notice. Many teachers expected and trusted that the textbook authors would come up with an update of the textbooks in mathematics. An update that would thus solve their new educational challenge.

Full textThe purpose of this study is to investigate sfi-teachers’ experiences of distance education in the spring of 2020. The study focuses on examining how digital tools were adapted to students’ differences, how communication with students was established and what teaching methods characterized sfi teachers’ distance education. By describing the transition to distance education caused by pandemics such as SARS and Covid-19, the challenges and opportunities that teachers face in the digital classroom environment are described. Thereafter, theoretical aspects of communication and the teacher’s role in creating relationships with students in the digital learning environment are highlighted. In order to understand the phenomenon of distance education in its entirety, further points of departure are presented that should be taken into account when such education is designed. This is an empirical study where method triangulation with both quantitative and qualitative studies. A total of 126 respondents responded to the online survey and six respondents participated in semi-structured interviews. The results indicate that the teachers’ approach to distance education during the pandemic, and the inequality in students’ digital competence and the students’ inadequate access to digital technology in connection with the transition, were decisive for how new teaching methods and teaching strategies were formed. Sfi teachers used the digital tools and digital resources that were already incorporated in the classroom education. Both synchronous and asynchronous communication were applied to a large extent, where synchronous communication was valued thanks to its similarity to the physical classroom layout and asynchronous communication because of the increased accessibility to teaching materials. The sfi teachers’ teaching challenges consisted of difficulties in being available to the students who needed support and in following up the students’ learning processes at a distance.

Full textThe purpose of this study is to contribute knowledge about students’ perspectives on the use of digital tools in social interactions, education and everyday life. In order to examine this area, students in compulsory school for pupils with learning disabilities have been interviewed. The interest for this subject arose when I during my work in special school sometimes experienced a lack of knowledge, regarding digital tools, on how to support the students fully in their education. Previous research shows positive results for students with intellectual disabilities regarding use of digitals tools during education. There are also studies that show that using digital tools can contribute to increase the independence and connection to the society for these people. This study is based on a sociocultural perspective, where education and personal growth is developed by interaction between people. In order to collect empirical data, a qualitative semi-structured interview method was selected. The results indicate that the students are using common functions in both smart phones and computers in a variety of contexts. According to the students, the digital tools are necessary for their education as well as their participation in all parts of the society. The study did not result in any features or applications used specifically for educating students in compulsory school for pupils with learning disabilities. The students expressed that they learned to use the tools by themselves or from friends. They also stated that they themselves found appropriate strategies and area of use for the tools that compensate for different disabilities or other difficulties both inside and outside the school. Regarding future research in this area one suitable approach could be to use the special education teacher’s perspective as a main source and explore the possibilities to further develop the digital tools the students already are familiar with, towards a better education.

Full textOn a daily basis, students encounter multimodal texts both at school and at leisure. Digitization has led to a change in how texts are read and produced. In addition, digitization contributes to both opportunities and difficulties for both teachers and pupils. The purpose of this study is to find out how teachers and students work with multimodal narrative texts in the Swedish subject in grades 1—3 and what opportunities and difficulties exist in the work. Teachers´ and pupils' opinion on the work with multimodal narrative texts will also be compared with each other. The study is based on a sociocultural perspective which considers the multimodal narratives as constructs in a social context. To collect material to my study I use the method interview, the teachers are personally interviewed and the students are interviewed in groups. The results of the study showes that writing and image are the most common modalities. The grades work in slightly different ways, but all teachers use pictures to support students' understanding. Digital tools are used extensively in Swedish teaching, projectors are used in reviews and reports, computers are used as search engines and to produce text on, and iPads are used in the same way as the computer but also to record audio and film. Teachers plan what students should do while students plan what they want to write about. But it's not always easy to figure out what to write about. The teachers feel that many students have a lack of imagination which the students themselves notice.

Full textThe aim of this study is to investigate how some teachers can work to elaborate teaching to provide student with intellectual disabilities and autism spectrum disorder opportunities to develop reading skills. To find out, I have completed a Learning Study. I have then analyzed the result using Variation Theory. The overall result shows that it benefits the students if the teaching is varied based on the students' ways of understanding and perceiving what the student will learn. The study found that visual support and digital tools can increase students' ability to develop in reading. The study and previous research show that the teaching should include that the student should learn both word images and individual letter sounds. The teachers who participated in the study require further skills in order to be able to use digital tools in teaching as well as how teaching can be designed to practice phonological awareness.
