Craft Sense represents a learner’s skill for obtaining Sloyd (Craft, Design & Technology) related knowledge, skills and understanding. The development of Craft Sense is based on producing artefacts and evaluating the production process. In this research, the concept of Craft Sense is based on the integration of Sloyd and meta-cognitive regulation of learning activities. Based on theoretical information, an empirical research question was formulated: “What kind of Craft Sense do children have in early education Sloyd?” The method of study was assessing picture supported learning on a Sloyd course for young children. The data was analyzed by qualitative content analysis and Child Behaviour Rating Scale (CBRS). Findings indicate that the development of children’s Craft Sense can be supported with pictures. Furthermore, the CBRS can be used to evaluate and understand children’s Craft Sense. </em></p><p>Keywords: Craft Sense, Sloyd, Sloyd Education, Meta-cognition</p>}, number={3}, journal={Techne serien - Forskning i slöjdpedagogik och slöjdvetenskap}, author={Virta, Kalle and Metsärinne, Mika and Kallio, Manne}, year={2013}, month={okt.} }
