Dannelse og samskaping av utdanning mellom akademia og sykehjem En kritisk etnografisk studie

Abstract

Cultivation and co-creation of education between academy and nursing home- a critical ethnography study Collaboration between academy and practice in education is emphasized. In this study, we explored and described boundary-crossing spaces, when co-creating an adjusted educational program for nursing students in a nursing home in Norway. Our aim was to explore how to learn person-centered dementia care through the participants in a learning community. A critical ethnographic approach and method with observations, field notes, minutes of board, spontaneous meetings, and focus groups particularly with the students were used. Data were analyzed with sixstep thematic analysis by Braun and Clarke. There were two main themes: 1) Creating a room for learning communities and 2) The room of the cultivation and border-crossing in learning communities. We further suggest, learning communities’ co-creation in elderly care, might potentiate innovative research- and development methods for the future.
