Which leads to, which in turn… : a qualitative study of teachers' perceptions of complex systems in the learning of ecology (English)
Abstract [sv]

En term som används för att beskriva samband mellan sammansatta, integrerande nätverk är komplexa system. I dagens samhälle är det nödvändigt att kunna navigera  i dessa så kallade komplexa system för att förstå sin omvärld och i denna kunna fatta beslut eller analysera problem. Komplexa system ingår i skolans biologiundervisning och har setts vara ett problematiskt område för eleverna. Syftet med arbetet är att bidra med mer kunskap om hur lärare beskriver sin undervisning om komplexa system. Det är därmed lärares erfarenhet utav sin undervisning samt deras uppfattning av huruvida eleverna influeras av den som blir utgångspunkten för studien. Studien  undersöker lärarnas uppfattning utav dessa system i anknytning till biologins ekologiområde genom intervjuer och en fenomenologisk ansats. Resultatet presenterar en beskrivning utav lärares upplevelse av deras undervisning och vilka möjligheter och svårigheter som uppkommer i inlärningen av ekologins komplexa system. Lärarna vittnar om ett teoritungt område med stor mängd begrepp, men ser möjligheter till ett gott resultat hos elever i att använda upplevelser samt variera arbetssätt i nära anknytning till naturen. Slutsatsen av studien kunde se ett samband mellan den didaktiska forskningen och lärares erfarenheter.

Abstract [en]

A term used to describe connections between composite, integrative networks is complex systems. In today's society it’s necessary to be able to navigate these so- called complex systems in order to understand our surroundings and thus be able to make decisions or analyse problems. Complex systems are part of the school's biology subject and have been seen as a problematic area for students. The purpose of this research is to contribute with more knowledge about how teachers describe their teaching about complex systems. It is thus the teachers' experience of their teaching and their perception of whether the students are influenced by it that becomes the starting point for the study. The study examines teachers' perceptions of these systems within the field of ecology as part of biology education through interviews with a phenomenological approach. The result shows a description of teachers' experience of their teaching and what opportunities and difficulties arise in learning the complex systems of ecology. In this study the teachers experience the area of ecology to have many theories and concepts to learn. But see opportunities for good student results by using experiences and varying working methods in close connection with nature. The study concludes by making connections between the science education research and the teachers' experiences as depicted in this study.
