摘要

This study addresses the challenges of documenting and demonstrating practical knowledge (PK) in craft subjects. Acquiring PK is a dynamic process involving experience, reflection, practical work, and active engagement with the environment. The aim of this study is to explore the aspects of PK that can be seen in silent video documentation of the Swedish craft subject Sloyd. Twenty students consented to film and submit videos documenting their craft projects. Four categories of PK were identified: know-how, know-what, know-when, and know-why. The findings from the video data analysis provide valuable insights into PK, showcasing, for example, students’ dexterity, material knowledge, planning, creativity, and decision-making. However, observing reflections in the silent videos was challenging. This study increases our understanding of what PK is in the context of craft education and how it becomes visible in action, offering an alternative or complement to the assessment of students’ written reflections and oral presentations.
