Public defence of doctoral thesis | Exploring ways of empowering pupils in physical education through circus – an action research project | Matilda Lindberg, Malmö University, September 27, 2024
This study proposes changes to physical education. The aim of this action research project was to explore ways of empowering pupils in physical education. The study involves ten-year-old children from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds, their physical education teacher, and a teacher-researcher. The study is at the intersection of three different fields in relation to physical education: influence, language, and creativity. Exploratory circus activities are used as a means to empower pupils and challenge the conventional structure of the subject.
