"Without support, I would have dropped out" : some students' voices on support in municipal adult education studies (English)
Abstract [sv]

Studien undersöker huruvida elever i behov av stöd inom den kommunala vuxenutbildningen, uppfattar att de har fått stöd och hur detta har påverkat deras studiesituation. Syftet har sin bakgrund i dagens vuxenutbildnings mer heterogena grupper, men också då det inom vuxenutbildningen inte finns något lagstadgat krav på elevhälsa. Teoretiska utgångspunkter är den sociokulturella teorin, relationell pedagogik och teorin om KASAM. Respondenterna, elever på gymnasienivå, har genomfört en anonym, digital enkätundersökning och deltagit i en semistrukturerad intervju. Resultatet visar att majoriteten anser sig ha fått det stöd de har uttryckt behov av, från såväl lärare, studie- och yrkesvägledare, specialpedagog och andra skolprofessioner. Resultatets tematiska analys, delar in data i fem kategorier: tillgänglighet, bemötande, motivation, förutsättningar och relation. Vidare ger analysen att förtroendefulla relationer består av ett tillitsfullt bemötande och tillgänglighet, av både pedagogisk och socio-emotionell karaktär, vilka kan leda till ökade förutsättningar och vidare till ökad motivation i en cirkulär process. I diskussionen belyses att specialpedagogens roll i det fortsatta utvecklingsarbetet inom den kommunala vuxenutbildningen, kan bestå i att, tillsammans med skolledning och förstelärare, bistå med forskningsbaserad fortbildning som synliggör vikten av förtroendefulla relationer för den aktuella elevgruppen.

Abstract [en]

The study investigates how students in need of support within municipal adult education, perceive the support given as well as its effects on their results or preconditions. The study’s aim originates from today’s changed and thereby more heterogenic student groups in combination with the lack of a mandatory multi-professional school health care teams. Theoretical perspectives used are the sociocultural theory, relational pedagogy and the theory of KASAM. The participants were upper secondary school students and were asked to answer an anonymous digital survey as well as to participate in a semi-structured interview. The result showed that a majority of the students experience that they have been given the support needed from teachers, study and career guides and the special educator as well as other school professions. The themes that were found were organized in five categories: accessibility, reception, motivation, preconditions and relationship. The analysis showed that trustful relationships included a trustable reception and accessibility, both pedagogically and socio-emotionally, which could lead to increased preconditions and thereby to an increased motivation in a circular process. The discussion gave that the role of the special educator, together with head teachers and the school board, could work together with school development within the municipal adult education; the special educator’s role could then be to be responsible for bringing a scientific ground to further education to school professions about the importance of trustful relations for this student group.
