Fri lek är viktigt! : barns perspektiv på fri lek på fritidshemmet

Nordengren, Jonas January 2016 (has links)
The overall purpose of this study was to investigate the child's perspective on the free play in the youth recreation center. The closer intention of the study has been to investigate what children themselves express as meaningful aspects of free play in the youth recreation center and what various opportunities children highlight when it comes to identity formation and social training in the free play. To answer the purpose three focus groups discussions were conducted with children of mixed ages from grade one to three. The results of the study were analyzed from a symbolic interactionist perspective. Meaningful aspects of free play that the children were describing is that the free play is fun, it's good because then they decide for themselves, they can be with their "friends" and it's good that they get moving. A social skill they get to practice on is to negotiate with each other about what game they are playing, the hearing takes place primarily through various voting methods. The children also develop empathy in free play and create and maintain social relationships. Furthermore, the study shows that choice of game is an important part of the children's identity process. Finally, an important conclusion of the study is that free play is as important as other guided activities in the youth recreation center.

Sport and delinquency : effects of participation in sport on the development of adolescent antisocial and delinquent behaviour

Rapagna, Paul. January 1996 (has links)
The purpose of this investigation was to examine whether sports in which boys participated spontaneously (i.e., not organized as a treatment) could be associated with the retrenchment of later adolescent delinquent behaviours. The objectives of this particular investigation were to: (i) observe how this participation might alter a negative behavioural developmental trajectory; and (ii) study the possible effects of transition in sports activity (i.e., increases or decreases in participation in sports from year to year) on current and later risk for delinquency. / This investigation utilized data obtained from the Montreal Longitudinal-Experimental Study of Boys which started in 1984 when the boys were six years old. Seven-hundred-eleven of the subjects met the inclusion criteria necessary to participate in the present study. Each year, from 1989 (age 11) to 1995 (age 17) the subjects were asked to complete the Self-Report-Delinquency questionnaire, a 27-item scale detailing their involvement in antisocial behaviour over the previous 12-month period. The scores of four of these years were retained for study; namely, those for 1989 (age 11), 1991 (age 13), 1993 (age 15), 1995 (age 17). (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

Constructing the ideal youth recreation leader : A Foucault inspired analysis

Ruschkowski, Andreas January 2018 (has links)
Youth recreation centres in Sweden are significant venues for youth to engage in meaningful activities, as a way to counteract increased segregation and social tension. The professionals promoting young people’s social inclusion and fostering positive personal development in this context, are youth recreation leaders. Since young people’s informal learning is construed in relation to youth recreation centre attendance, a question of these leaders’ professionalism is actualized. What knowledge and competencies are needed - and valued as important - to be a ‘good’ youth recreation leader? The aim of this thesis is to explore how the youth recreation leader is shaped and governed through discourses on youth recreational work. How is the discourse shaped, and what kind of subjectivity emerges through it? Drawing on Michel Foucault’s concepts discourse, subjectivity, governmentality, and technologies of power and the self, the thesis analyses policy texts on youth recreation leader education and professional practice, as well as youth recreation leader educators’ talk about the youth recreation leader. The analysis illustrates how four subject positions emerge and are made possible through current discourses on youth recreational work - the democratic, relational, recreation-anchored, and reflective youth recreation leader. These subjectivities are enmeshed in power-relations through which they are fostered into governing themselves and others, i.e. the conduct of conduct. Government operates, for example, through students’ use of portfolios and personal reflection as confession.

Styrd utomhuslek : Ett sätt att integrera flickor och pojkar / Controlled outdoor play : An instrument to integrate girls and boys

Åkesson, Mikael, Sabanovic, Edo January 2017 (has links)
För att få pojkar och flickor att leka med varandra under utomhusvistelsen har styrda aktiviteter legat till grund för detta utvecklingsarbete på fritidshemmet. Detta efter ett samtal med arbetslaget på fritidshemmet där de ville utveckla utomhusvistelsen. Vi har observerat och identifierat att fritidsgruppen var grupperade mellan pojkar och flickor i den ”Fria” leken utomhus. Av den här anledningen bestämde vi oss för att försöka integrera flickor och pojkar genom styrda aktiviteter. Projektet omfattar tio stycken styrda aktiviteter, både frivilliga och obligatoriska samt fem intervjuer. Dokumentation i form av observationer, fältanteckningar, ljudupptagning och samtal med handledaren har också ingått i projektet. Resultatet av utvecklingsarbetet visar att styrda aktiviteter under utomhusvistelsen bidrog till mer lek samt förändrade attityder.

Convention and invention as factors in the patterns of leisure time utilisation of Zulu adolescents in rural and semi-rural settings in kwaZulu-Natal

Mkhize, Musawenkosi January 2002 (has links)
A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Communication Science at the University of Zululand, 2002. / In this thesis I present the results of a literature study, followed by an empirical surrey, regarding the leisure time activities of Zulu adolescents in rural and semi-rural areas of KwaZuhi-Natal along the northeastern seaboard of South Africa. My findings contextualise the above group's socialisation with regard to leisure time activities, home chores, school homework, school sports activities, communal tribal activities and local community events. I document and explain a variety of neighbourhood activities, including ones played during impromptu-organised neighbourhood get togethers. They include games ranging from the mundane to the innovative. I also analyse the annual Zulu Reed Dance Ceremony as a symbolic female rite of passage to womanhood, and various activities that serve as male rite-of-passage activities to manhood. My major finding is that all forms of social behaviour of Zulu rural adolescents — including their leisure time preferences — are informed by a coherent value-belief system in which religious beliefs play a central integrating role.
