The energy concept in the geography subject in the perspective of a science teacher (English)
Abstract [sv]

Denna studie behandlar energibegreppet i geografiämnet. Energibegreppet är komplext, inte minst för att det behandlas i olika kontexter med olika betydelser. Som lärare i naturvetenskapsämnena vill man förstå elevernas lärande om naturvetenskapliga begrepp, även om lärandet ligger utanför de egna ämnena. Syftet med studien är därför att kvalitativt undersöka hur energibegreppet behandlas i geografiämnet för att få en djupare förståelse för hur naturvetenskapsundervisningen och geografiundervisningen kan komplettera varandra. Sex samhällskunskapslärare i årkurserna 4–6 intervjuades om deras användning av energibegreppet. Deras uttalanden tematiserades och jämfördes med de fyra nyckelidéer om energibegreppet som Duit lyfter fram som centrala ur ett naturvetenskapligt perspektiv. Tre nyckelidéer kunde identifieras i lärarnas beskrivningar av hur de behandlar energibegreppet i geografiämnet. Tre teman kunde också urskiljas i datan. Studien pekar på att energibegreppet behandlas i geografiämnet med viss förankring till energiomvandling och energiöverföring. Vilket gör det möjligt att arbeta med ämnesövergripande undervisning gällande energibegreppet. 

Abstract [en]

This study deals with the energy concept in the school subject of geography. The energy concept is complex, not least because it is treated in different contexts with different meanings. As a science teacher, you want to understand the students' learning about science concepts, also such learning that is outside their subject. The aim of the qualitative study is therefore to investigate how the energy concept is treated in the subject of geography in order to gain a deeper understanding of how science teaching and geography teaching can complement each other. Six social science teachers in middle school were interviewed about their use of the energy concept. Their statements were thematized and compared with the four key ideas about the energy concept that Duit highlights as central from a scientific perspective. Three key ideas could be identified in the teachers' descriptions of how they treat the energy concept in the subject of geography. Three themes could also be distinguished in the data. The study indicates that the energy concept is treated in the subject of geography with some base in energy transformation and energy transfer. That makes it possible to work interdisciplinary regarding the energy concept.
