Short Abstract:

Many ethnologists and folklorists have been and/or are currently involved in research in the school context and different forms of education. We think it's time to gather Nordic ethnological and folkloristic researchers and research on the topic again, to recollect, so to speak.

Long Abstract:

The Swedish National Agency for Education states that trusting relations between pupils and teachers are important for feeling safe and motivated in schools. Schools and other educational arenas are complex social phenomena that include a multitude of relations, interactions, norms and practices. These differing experiences of, for example, pupils and teachers form an interesting starting point for ethnological analysis.

Many ethnologists and folklorists have been and/or are currently involved in research in the school context and different forms of education. Furthermore, ethnological perspectives have been made relevant in teacher education, for example, and quite a few of us are involved in teaching in teacher education programmes. We think it's time to gather Nordic ethnological and folkloristic researchers and research on the topic again, to recollect, so to speak.

In this panel, we invite papers that depart from empirical examples from differing educational contexts, to continue mapping current ethnological research on schools and education. What topics do we have in common? What ethnological analytical tools seem to be working well in regard to educational arenas? In multidisciplinary contexts, what are the specific ethnological contributions to teacher education programmes and to the field of education?
