Psykologisk kontrakt med studenter i høyere utdanning

Abstract

In this article, we present how a shared psychological contract was negotiated with students at the Practical Pedagogical Education for Vocational Teachers (PPU-Y) at the beginning of the program, autumn 2016. A modified version of the nominal group technique (NGT) was used in groups and in whole class negotiations. General themes representing the individual students as well as common expectations of the role of the teacher and their own role as students were identified.

The findings show that the students have a high degree of relational expectations to the teacher, expect structure and predictability in the study, and expect relevance between education and objectives of education and that individual expectations to the teacher and the negotiated psychological contract in class are relatively similar
