Coherence in professional education: does it foster dedication and identification?

Abstract: This article examines the impact of professional education on students' dedication to and identification with a profession. The premise is that professional education is not only about knowledge acquisition and reasoning but also about attitudes and aspirations. In fostering dedication and identification, students' experiences of relevance seem to be important. The concept of coherence seen as an expression of relevance is introduced and measured by four kinds of interactions: TheoryÁpractice interaction, teac… Show more

“…Students' perceived sense of coherence is therefore vital for their learning outcomes (Grossman et al, 2008) and is thus an essential dimension of the structural characteristics of institutions. Several studies indicate that students' development of meaningful relationships and their sense of coherence between classroom teaching and professional practice are positively related to their learning outcomes (Smeby & Heggen, 2014), as well as dedication to and identification with the profession (Heggen & Terum, 2013).…”

“…Mens annen forskning peker på viktigheten av studenters opplevelse av koherens. Begrepet koherens ble sett på som et uttrykk for relevans og målt gjennom: sammenheng mellom teori-praksis, laerer-student interaksjon, samhandling og veiledning, samt studentinteraksjon, i laerer-, sykepleie-og sosialarbeiderutdanninger (Heggen & Terum, 2013). Sammenheng i utdanningen hadde også fokus i et nasjonalt forskningsprosjekt (PIL), hvor styrking av laererutdanningens relasjon til praksisfeltet gjennom utvikling av trepartssamtalen var sentral (Gloppen, 2013).…”

“…Samfunnet er i endring, samtidig som vi må ivareta fagenes saerpreg og tradisjoner (Sennet, 2008). På bakgrunn av resultatene ser vi behov for å få et spisset innhold i YFL som grunnlag for mer dybdelaering og yrkesspesialisering i tråd med arbeidslivets og samfunnets behov for kompetanse, og å styrke koherensen mellom profesjonsfaget og praksisfeltet ytterligere (Canrinus et al, 2015;Heggen & Terum, 2013;Hiim, 2015;Sylte, 2018).…”

“…Nyere forskning viser at relevansproblematikk, som lite profesjonsretting og svak koherens (sammenheng) mellom profesjonsutdanning og praksisfeltet, er en utfordring i dagens laererutdanninger (Canrinus, Bergem, Klette & Hammerness, 2015;Heggen & Terum, 2013;Hiim, 2015;Sylte, 2018). Forskning peker også på at det er manglende koherens mellom YFL og mange praksislaereres tolking av hvilken laererkompetanse som fremmer relevant yrkesopplaering i brede utdanningsprogram (Dahlback, Hansen, Haaland & Vagle 2015;Dahlback, Haaland & Vagle, 2016).…”
