Skriftbruket hos två elever på yrkesförberedande program: En skriftetnografisk undersökning / Literacy practices with two pupils from professional preparing programs on upper secondary school: A literacy ethnographic study

This essay elucidates upper secondary students’ literacy practices, (literacy events, literacy competencies and literacy culture) during a typical day, with focus on the daily literacy practices. A literacy ethnographic study conducted in the environment which participants naturally are, at home, at school and in leisure. The study is inspired of a project, Skriftbruk i arbetslivet, ´Literacy Practices in Working Life´, that conducted by Anna-Malin Karlsson, Per Ledin and Olle Josephson, in collaboration with Vetenskapsrådet ´Science Council´(2002-2004). The result of this study shows that students from professional preparing programs not use such literacy competencies that been tested in traditionally reading comprehension test, particularly much. However, do they read a lot during the literacy practices day by television, computer and mobile phone. The literacy events for both persons in the study, during the literacy practices days, mostly belong to the daily literacy practice. There are only a small piece of literacy events which are school related.
