Sammanfattning
The intention with the article is to
elucidate some pedagogical challenges
by using a method
that emphasize self-directed learning.
The article is based on a
descriptive study wherein the
students’ anticipations and experiences
with such a method are
charted. The students were in
their last semester, and they
should prepare for studies in the
clinical area. In the study a
qualitative interview is used, and
the data source in the study consists
of statements from 15
students.
The study shows that contact with
a clinical area is important for
motivation. The students
are positive regarding the method,
experiences with the method
and clinical area are
experienced as useful. The results
show also that the method entails
challenges in regard to
responsibility and participation
from both teachers and students.
In order to secure diciplinal
quality a balance between direction
and control in preparation
for learning situations is
demanded. These are pedagogical
challenges which need further
elaboration.
