Title: Children's aesthetic creation in different environments - A qualitative study of five preschool teachers 'perceptions of children's aesthetic learning processes in pre-schools' creative environments. Author: Mafi Misirhanova Supervisor: Karin Ehrlén Term: Spring 2017 The purpose of my thesis is to examine how the five pre-school teachers who participate in my study reflect about aesthetic expressions in relation to children's learning in preschool. Furthermore, I want to find out about the thoughts of the educators concerning the role of social interaction and the importance of the environment in the aesthetic creation process. My first question is about what view the informants have on social interaction during aesthetic creation processes. My second question is about how the informants reflect on studio and creative rooms at the selected three preschools. The study is based on qualitative interview methods where five pre-school teachers reflected on their internship. The essay is based on a sociocultural perspective based on development and learning. As far as the informants' views on social interaction during aesthetic creation processes are concerned, my study showed that there is a strong connection between aesthetic learning processes, language learning and social interaction as these areas interact during a creative activity at preschool. The informants' reflection on the studio and the creative rooms showed that the preschool with a creative room in the department gave the most positive response because the room was considered to enable continuous creation processes. The studio as a separate room and the playroom with a creative corner had shortcomings in accessibility with regard to the use of the room as well as the material.
