Abstract [sv]

Syftet men det här examensarbetet är att bidra med kunskaper om barns delaktighet ur ett Sydafrikanskt perspektiv. Detta sker genom att undersöka hur pedagoger, lärare och barnskötare ser på barns delaktighet i Sydafrikanska förskolor.  Studien bygger på tre frågeställningar som skapats utifrån studiens syfte.

Genom kvalitativa intervjuer har jag i en lugn miljö intervjuat fem lärare i tre olika Sydafrikanska förskolor, utifrån en intervjuguide där respondenterna fått uttrycka sig fritt i sina svar. Intervjuerna bygger på att tillsammans med respondenterna skapa en bild av respondenternas tankar och arbetssätt kring barns delaktighet.

Studiens resultat visar att respondenterna anser att delaktighet sker genom att barnen är delaktiga och involverade i aktiviteter samt när de samspelar med andra personer. För att främja barns möjligheter till delaktighet i verksamheten menar respondenterna att det viktigt med planering tillsammans med sina kollegor samt att arbeta tematisk utifrån barns intressen. 

Abstract [en]

This study aims to contribute to the knowledge about children’s participation in preschool from a South African perspective. I have examined how teachers, preschool teachers and kindergarten teachers thinks about and work with children's participation in South African preschools.

The study was carried out through qualitative interviews. I have interviewed five teachers in three different South African preschools. The interviews were based on an interview guide that allowed the respondents to express themselves freely in their responses. The interview questions was formulated to provide insight into the respondents understanding of, and work with children's participation.

The results of the study shows that the respondents considers that participation takes place when the children participate and get involved in activities and when they interact with other people. In order to promote children’s opportunities for participation the respondents consider it important to plan together and to work thematically based on the children’s interests.
