Lärares och rektorers förhållningssätt till digitala verktyg i svenskundervisningen

Sammanfattning: The purpose of this study is to examine teachers’ and principals’ attitudes towards the use of digital tools in school and how such tools are incorporated in their teaching practice. The study looks into the details of what teaching methods are used by the teachers when using digital tools. It also examines the resources available for teachers in order for them to develop their pedagogical skills in the field of digital tools. In this study, qualitative interviews were used as a method. The study shows that the interviewed teachers are both positive and negative to using different kinds of digital tools in their teaching but to different degrees. The interviews with the principals show that their knowledge of digital tools in school is limited. They do not agree whether the municipality has a policy for digital tools in schools. Moreover, and in line with this uncertainty, the interviews reveal that the principles think teachers use digital tools in their teaching, but they have no idea of how much or how teachers use them.
