Department of Education, Communication andAbout Magnus Karlsson
I have a background as a preschool teacher, have a PhD in Educational Work and I am now a Senior Lecturer in Child and Youth Studies. I teach and supervise students in the preschool teacher program, mainly in courses that deal with play, learning and care.
My research interests concern children's (and educators') morality in interaction, children´s social organization of play and peer relations in preschool.
