Abstract [sv]

Uppsatsen handlar om elevers attityder till de naturorienterade ämnena och vilken betydelse läraren och lärarens undervisning har för skapandet av dessa attityder. Studien försöker dessutom skildra hur elever beskriver sitt inflytande i undervisningen och vilken mening de upplever att detta har. Enskilda intervjuer genomfördes med elever i årskurs nio från två olika skolor.

Det visade sig att eleverna hade ganska positiva attityder till de naturorienterade ämnena och att dessa till stor del påverkades av lärarens förhållningssätt samt val av undervisning. Eleverna gav uttryck för att följande fyra faktorer upplevdes som betydelsefulla hos läraren: pedagogisk förmåga, goda ämneskunskaper, ledarskap samt val av undervisning. Eleverna ville ha möjlighet till att påverka undervisningen men kunde inte uttrycka i vilka former detta skulle kunna ske. Studien visar på att de elever som givits möjlighet till att påverka var mer positivt inställda till samt kunde se fördelar med sin påverkan än de som inte fått denna möjlighet. Vidare kan även en koppling göras mellan elevernas attityder och undervisningens avsaknad på relaterbarhet till vardagslivet.

Abstract [en]

The essay is about student's attitudes towards the science orientated subjects and the influence the teacher has for creating these attitudes. The study also tries to present students influence in the classroom, and to what extent they believe they can promote their suggestions. Separate interviews were conducted with 15 year old students from two different schools.

The given result shows that the students had fairly positive attitudes to the science orientated subjects, mostly due to the teacher's mindset and the way of teaching.

The following four items were mentioned by the students as crucial in order to create a successful teacher: Pedagogical capability, knowledge of the subject, leadership and choice of education.

The students wanted the opportunity to be able to influence the teaching, however, they couldn't express how to do that. The study also shows that the students that were given the chance to present their comments on the class were more positive towards the subject. Furthermore, a connection between the students’ attitudes and the lack of subject's relation to the daily life could be made.
