Vennskap i småbarnsavdelinger som private relasjoner på en offentlig arena
2018
Denne artikkelen belyser sma barns utprovinger av sitt sosiale handlingsrepertoar basert pa mikroetnografiske analyser av videobservasjon fra to norske smabarnsavdelinger. Det tas til orde for a beskrive dette som utprovinger av rollen som aktor i et offentlig liv og samtidig kunne etablere ulike typer mer private relasjoner med klare grenser mot en felles offentlighet utenfor, og det undersokes hvordan barn kan mestre kunsten a bevege seg mellom disse to ulike rollene. Artikkelen peker pa barnehagen som en saerskilt institusjonell kontekst preget av eierlose ting og steder som barna hele tiden ma tilegne seg midlertidig bruksrett over.

Reaching toward individualization in planning for children with special needs
2009
Integrating young children with special needs into programs for typically developing children is a current trend. Yet, integration may threaten a teacher's ability to meet the needs of an individual child. The aim of this study was to gain an understanding of the teachers’ orientation in early intervention/early childhood special education. Data from thirteen early childhood generic educators/early childhood special educators were collected to provide a qualitative description of their assessment and planning practices. Findings indicated that generic early childhood/early childhood special educators’ assessment, planning, and programming for meeting the needs of individual children were no…

Barnet som aktør og kunnskapsbærer – en utfordring for barnevernets profesjonelle ekspertise
2010
Author's version of an article published in the journal: Norges Barnevern. Also available from the publisher at: http://www.idunn.no/ts/tnb/2010/03/art04 During recent years, it has become more and more common to consider children as competent participants in their own lives, also in the child protective services. This agrees with the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and more recent research on children and childhood. That is to say that the child is seen as the expert on his own life, at the same time as the child protective services with their professional expertise have competence to say what is best for children. What does this imply and how can we understand the relation betwee…
Revista iberoamericana de educación
2016
Poniendo de relieve el foco de estudio que ha orientado nuestra investigación, mostramos en este artículo algunas propuestas formativas que desarrollamos en las materias del Grado de Maestra/o en Educación Infantil que tenemos a nuestro cargo. Nuestra premisa es que el oficio docente no se sustenta, únicamente, en los saberes disciplinares transmitidos durante el período formativo. Los estudios con docentes de infantil y primaria que hemos hecho nos muestran que hay aspectos del hacer, del saber y del ser docente que escapan a esa formalización del conocimiento disciplinar; lo que nos ha hecho interrogar nuestras propias prácticas formativas. Por ello, hemos ido buscando en los saberes expe…
The origins of the aesthetic enjoyment of music - A review of the literature
2009
Listeners attribute a positive or negative value to music. This aesthetic experience is known to be observable over the individuals’ entire life span, from early childhood to old age, and in every culture. It is then often concluded that such an aesthetic experience constitutes part of the human nature, having an important biological foundation. This assumption leads to the question of how aesthetic experience of music originated in the biological evolution. In this paper, we will explore this question in the light of evolutionary psychology, cognitive science, and systems neuroscience. After reviewing the existing proposals, we conclude that the explanation of the origin of aesthetic expe…
