I wonder who I am at work : A qualitative study about the descriptions of leisure teachers and leisure educators of their dual mission and the dilemmas of the dual mission (English)
Abstract [en]

The title of our essay is I wonder who I am at work. It is a qualitative study about the descriptions of leisure teachers and leisure educators of their dual mission and the dilemmas of the dual mission. The purpose of this study is to examine the dilemmas after-school teachers and after-school educators encounter in their professional role. We also look into the experiences of four after-school teachers and two after-school educators regarding the support they receive from their supervisor who is an assistant principal in after-school education. We also investigate how three deputy head teachers in leisure time centres describe the tasks of leisure time teachers and leisure time educators and the support they provide to them as a group of teachers and for the leisure time centre activities. In the study, we use concepts from the framework factor theory and the theory of KASAM. We also make use of some previous research in the field. After analyzing our interviews, we concluded that all after-school teachers and leisure time educators have common responsibilities in their mission and these are recess activities, leisure time supervisor and interaction during school hours. Unlike after-school teachers, recreation teachers had instruction during school hours while after-school teachers had interaction in the classroom. All interviewees felt that planning time was a major issue. It is difficult to plan for their assignments which are both during school, and after. Therefore, our interviewees chose to focus on the area that they felt was most important to them. The after-school teachers have chosen to focus on planning for school teaching while the after-school educators for after-school activities. Our study results showed that assistant principals in after-school programs were knowledgeable in their field because they have both training and experience in after-school programs. Both the after-school teachers and the after-school educators we interviewed emphasized the importance of having an assistant principal who has training in after-school education. The assistant principals in after-school care were very careful to have at least one FL or FP in each after-school department.
