The purpose of the essay was to investigate what the students' perception of the social studies subjectwas and how it related to the students' lifeworld. The essay used qualitative group interviews withsecondary school students. The aim was to illustrate the students' perspective of the social scienceeducation to counterbalance the teachers perspective which was commonly illustrated in teachereducation. The study shows that students mainly appreciate education in social science but lack theknowledge of the everyday life such as paying a bill and setting the tax return. Another thing theauthors found was that the teachers seemed to have been an important factor for what the students'learn and involvement in social issues. / <p>Godkänd 2024-01-19</p>
