Is religion an obstacle for girlsin the subject of sports and health? : A qualitative study of Muslim girls' challenges insports and health from an intercultural perspective (English)
Abstract [sv]

Syfte och frågeställning:

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka muslimska tjejers upplevelser av deltagandet i idrottsundervisningen. Studiens frågeställningar var:

- Upplever tjejerna att religionen medför hinder eller möjligheter i deltagandet i idrottsundervisningen?

- I vilka/vilket delmoment har tjejerna upplevt hinder/möjligheter av att delta i undervisningen?   

- Vilken kunskap upplever tjejerna att en idrottslärare är i behov av för att förstå muslimska tjejer i undervisningen? 

- Upplever tjejerna att lärarna har kunskaper om deras religiösa bakgrund och i så fall kunnat arbeta utifrån det?  

Metod:

En kvalitativ intervjumetod har använts i studien med sex gymnasieelever från sex olika kommuner. Samtliga deltagare bär slöja och praktiserar religionen islam. Intervjuerna spelades in och transkriberades. Därefter gjordes en innehållsanalys. Det interkulturella perspektivet har använts som ett teoretiskt perspektiv i diskussionen om resultatet.  

Resultat:

Studiens resultat visar att de muslimska tjejerna upplever religiösa utmaningar i samband med idrottsundervisningen. De utmaningar som upplevdes i undervisningen var inom dans och simning, samt under fasteperioden ramadan. Resultatet visar även att lärarnas grad av interkulturell pedagogisk kompetents varierar mellan lärarna och detta inkluderar även hanteringen av elevernas religiösa hinder i de ovan nämnda momenten. 

Slutsats:

Endast en av tjejerna nämner tydligt att religionen har varit ett hinder utifrån hennes religion. Två andra tjejer upplevde snarare utmaningar i idrottsundervisningen. De delmoment som hälften av tjejerna upplevde hinder och utmaningar i var simning och dans. Samtliga tjejer i studien upplever att idrottslärarna inte besitter några kunskaper om deras religion men däremot hade lärarna interkulturell kompetens.
