Vad blev av religionskunskapens syfte? : En intervjustudie om religionskunskapslärares ämnesförståelse i relation till undervisningstid / What is the purpose of studies of religions? : an interview study of subject comprehension in relation to time by Swedish upper secondary teachers in religious knowledge

This essay explores what happens to the Swedish ethics and religious education in upper secondary school correlated to the amount of scheduled classroom time at hand for teachers and students. To explore this field, five interviews were conducted with licensed teachers of ethics and religions, where they were able to share their own experience in organising their teaching. The result shows that all the teachers have to prioritize their time in such a way that not all parts of what they are supposed to teach according to the national curriculum was given due space within the given time frame. The hermeneutic analysis of the result tells us that the purpose taught in ethics and religious education for upper secondary school tends to be more oriented towards facts about religions contrary to an emphasis on understanding of religions and religiosity.
