(2018)The purpose of this thesis is to get an insight in kindergarten teachers’ thoughts about children’s participation and how children can influence in kindergartens and pre-schools. The focus on this study is kindergarten teachers’ thoughts and experiences on children’s participation. The theoretical background discusses children’s participation and what it means to take a child’s perspective. National regulatory documents and previous research is also discussed. This study is a qualitative study with interviews as method. Five kindergarten teachers were interviewed, three of which work with 3 to 5-year-olds and two at pre-schools. The interviews were recorded and transcribed. The results indicate that the kindergarten teachers consider children’s participation to be important and are encouraging children to influence in kindergarten and pre-school. The age of a child is not an obstacle for them to influence, but the age affects on how they can influence. All interviewed kindergarten teachers work with projects where the theme is decided by the children. Furthermore, children’s participation can be seen in daily routines and spontaneous situations. The kindergarten teachers experience difficulties within both the child group and amongst staff when it comes to children’s participation.

(2016)The purpose of this thesis is to explore children´s perception of their possibilities to participate in and influence the daily activities and their learning in preschool. This study emphasizes the children´s perception by exploring the phenomenon from the children´s perspective. The theoretical background focuses on influence and participation as concepts, democratic rights and factors that have an impact on children’s possibilities to be able to affect the daily activities and their own learning. The study´s empirical part was executed as a qualitative interview with preschool children. Ten preschool children participated in the interview and the interviews were conducted in pairs at the preschool. The research approach for this study is phenomenographical, because I wanted to research children´s perceptions of their influence and participation at preschool. The study shows that children perceive limited possibilities to affect the daily activities of the preschool. An interesting result is that children perceive that it is mainly the educators who decide at preschool and that free play is the only activity in which the children feel that they can decide freely what to do. In the results differences in perceptions of the possibilities in the free play emerge since some children consider that they can decide independently while other children consider that they can decide almost independently. It is found that the children have a possibility to affect the planned daily activities to some degree. Though it is entirely depending on if the educators offers the children the opportunity. The results show that most of the children perceive that they can affect their own learning, with help from their own dedication the children can get assistance in learning.

(2016)The purpose of this thesis was to find out what kind of experiences recently graduated kindergarten teachers have about developmental pedagogy and how they can practice it in activities with children. The study brings up kindergarten teachers attitudes to developmental pedagogy, its advantages and disadvantages, as well as how they use it in practice, if they do. The theoretical frame concentrates on where the developmental pedagogy theory has arisen from, what it involves and also discusses developmental psychology’s association to developmental pedagogy. It also emphasizes what the national regulatory documents consider about children’s development and learning, as well as previous research about developmental pedagogy. The study was qualitative and based on interviews. Four recently graduated kindergarten teachers participated in the study, which work both in municipal and private kindergartens in the metropolitan area of Helsinki. The interviews were executed individually at the respective teachers work places. My research approach is phenomenological. The results show that the teachers have a positive attitude towards developmental pedagogy and they find it to be a good tool for successful activities in the kindergarten. Developmental pedagogy enriches the child’s learning and the child constitutes understanding for its surrounding world. However, developmental pedagogy is very time-consuming and it assumes that all the colleagues share the same perspective on children and work similarly.

(2021)Mål. Målet med den här undersökningen är att ta reda på hur delaktighet betraktas i ett inlärnings syfte och hur pedagogerna ökar barns delaktighet inom småbarnspedagogiken samt ta reda på vad förutsättningarna är för att kunna skapa delaktighet inom småbarnspedagogiken. Avhandlingen kommer också att behandla frågor som gäller demokrati samt maktförhållanden mellan barn och vuxna och barnets möjligheter till att vara delaktiga och kunna påverka. Metoder. Studien bygger sig på en systematisk litteraturstudie med en kvalitativ analysmetod. Forskningsmaterialet är samlat från Eriks databas. Den systematisk litteraturstudien förutsätter ett stort utbud på studier i hög kvalitet som behandlar delaktighet. Studien är en samling av tidigare forskningar som är anskaffad genom en systematisk sökprocess var efter det görs en kritisk analys och till slut diskuteras resultatet genom forskningsfrågorna. Resultat Resultatet visade att både verbal och non verbal kommunikation och kommunikativt stöd är viktigt för att stöda barns delaktighet. Resultaten visar även att det fortfarande finns stort kunskapsbehov om delaktighet och hur delaktighet kan tas i beaktan i praktiken. Resultaten visar även hur viktigt det är att läraren är lyhörd och respekterar barnets åsikter och idéer. Det visar sig även att delaktighet är en mycket viktig del till barns lärande och att delaktighet utvecklar flera olika kunskapsområden hos barnen. Dessutom visar resultatet att genom delaktighet så ökar barnets iver att lära sig.
