Research group Teaching developing research in subject matter didaktik
The research group shares a strong interest in teaching development research. The research often takes its starting point in a challenge that has been identified in teaching, or in research, and it is often carried out in collaboration between researchers and teachers.
Group description
The research group in teaching developing research in subject matter didaktik focuses on many different school subjects. Our common interest in the research is that it is carried out with and for teachers, rather than about and on teachers.
The research often takes its starting point in challenges that have been identified in teaching. The aim is to be useful in teachers’ planning, implementation and evaluation of their teaching but also to apply critical perspectives on subject content and teaching processes. There are several scientific, methodological and ethical challenges involved in a teaching developing ambition, but there is also a large methodological repertoire to choose from in this kind of research.
For instance, teaching developing research can take the form of design studies where researchers and teachers together design, implement and analyse the teaching as well as the learning made possible – often in terms of an intervention aiming towards the challenge identified. But teaching developing research can also take the form of modelling as support for teachers in order to create meaningful teaching that contributes to students’ bildung.
The research group meets for two seminars per semester, where questions concerning method, ethics, theory, teacher-researcher collaboration and research objects are discussed.
