Schooling, Sports, Screens: Value-Laden Learning Practices
Abstract [en]
The doctoral school focuses on three strategic, value-laden and debated areas of learning: schooling, sports and screens. The intention is to build a comprehensive understanding of these areas and study how they are related‚ to what extent they reinforce or weaken each other, and how they function in different social, gendered and geographical contexts. Three disciplines, doctoral programs and research milieus are brought together for this collaborative undertaking: Sociology of Education at Uppsala University, Sport Pedagogy Research at the Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences (GIH) and Media and Communication Studies at Södertörn University. Three aims are put forth: I) To contribute with new and integrated knowledge on schooling, sports and screens as value-charged areas of learning. II) To strengthen the competence in teacher education, in the Swedish educational system and in the educational sciences for the areas that the doctoral school focuses on. III) To function as a national and international hub for integrative scholarship on the outlined research areas. The doctoral school will provide four core activities: 4 conjoint doctoral courses; 5 workshops on ethics, academic writing and career perspectives; 3 text-based seminars and 2 national and international conferences. It will be organized with a steering group and a teacher collegium, with support from a coordinator and an international reference group.

Abstract [sv]

Introduktion

I vilken utsträckning unga deltar i rörelsekultur är ett återkommande forsknings- och samhällsintresse. Frågan relaterar både till fysisk aktivitet och hälsa, men också till rörelsekultur som en arena för socialisering, identitetsskapande och tillhörighet. Tidigare forskning visar att ungas deltagande är ojämlikt fördelat utifrån faktorer som kön, socioekonomisk status (SES) och att deltagandet varierar mellan olika geografiska kontexter (Larsson, 2019; Nilsson, 1998). Därmed kan ungdomars deltagande i rörelsekultur betraktas som ett uttryck för skilda förutsättning i livsvillkor. 

Syfte

Syftet med denna artikel är att, med utgångspunkt i Engströms (2008, 2013; Engström et al, 2018) ramverk om praktikens logiker, undersöka ungdomars smak för praktikens logiker i dagens rörelsekultur—exempelvis tävling, lek, och rörelse till musik. Analysen rör smakprofiler i relation till självrapporterat deltagande i rörelsekultur samt till kön, SES, migrationsbakgrund och sociogeografisk kontext genom Bourdieus begrepp habitus, kapital och sociala rum. Studien syftar också till att teoretiskt diskutera och empiriskt pröva samt kritiskt vidareutveckla Engströms ramverk.

Metod

Studien bygger på enkätdata från 2024 med 945 ungdomar i årskurs nio från fyra skilda sociogeografiska kontexter i Sverige: landsbygd, mellanstor stad, Stockholms innerstad samt Stockholms södra förorter. En statistisk klusteranalys av ungdomars smak/avsmak för praktikens logiker har genomförts, där smakprofilerna relateras till sociokulturella faktorer och de sociogeografiska kontexterna.

Resultat

Preliminära resultat indikerar att ungas smak och avsmak för skilda logiker samvarierar med deltagande i olika former av rörelsekultur såsom föreningsidrott, gymträning, att träna på egen hand liksom av med att inte regelbundet delta i de rörelsepraktiker som står till buds samt att sociokulturella skillnader framträder. 

Diskussion och slutsatser

Kunskapen om ungas smak för praktikens logiker och dess relation till i vilken utsträckning de deltar i rörelsekultur utifrån sociokulturella förutsättningar, kan utgöra en viktig pusselbit för förståelsen av varför inte fler rör sig.

Abstract [en]

Introduction: Youth participation in organized sport, a longstanding leisure-time activity in Sweden, is both popular and polarized. There are variations in levels of participation related to sociocultural aspects such as gender, socioeconomics, and demography. This ongoing doctoral project investigates young people's evolving engagement in different forms of movement culture, emphasizing and investigating young people’s taste for different forms of movement culture and their perceived reliance on digital technologies. Situated within the research school"School, sport, screens," the study primarily explores youth participation in movement culture. The project is, to some extent, a continuation of earlier studies regarding young people’s participation in movement culture (Larsson 2005, 2008, 2019; Nilsson 1998).

Aim and Theoretical Framework: This research examines young people's participation in movement culture and how it is valued and perceived in the digital era. Drawing on sociocultural and pedagogical perspectives, the theoretical framework, inspired by Bourdieu and Engström, incorporates the contextual role of digital technologies. Movement culture, defined as socially formed physical activity outside daily obligations (Engström, 2013), is used as a foundation to describe different forms of organized physical activity and is analyzed using Bourdieu's concepts of practices, logics, habitus, and taste.

Method and Selection: Using a mixed-method approach, the study combines interviews and a cross-sectional survey in four different Swedish regions. This enables a comprehensive exploration of participation influences and trends, including sociocultural factors and the participant’s own perceived reliance on digital technologies. Data collection spans from December 2023 to February 2024.

Results, Discussions, and Conclusions: Preliminary findings will be presented at the conference.
