Aha experience
Kristine
Three interviewees spoke of aha experiences as a change in perspective or raising consciousness about something they had been doing. Astrid (T2) described how several of her colleagues experienced “aha”:Astrid:And some people did have such aha experiences in between that this actually works. (…) And that is… a good starting point.Interviewer:Yes. Do you think your colleagues seemed motivated?Astrid:Yes, absolutely!In contexts where kindergarten personnel experienced aha moments when practicing TIK-KT, they reported back to Astrid that it was effective. Kristine and Janne also mentioned aha experiences:Kristine (T2):Therefore, for me it became slightly like an aha experience about… now I kind of work the way I think I Janne (T1):(…) That is how We can see that the interviewees may have developed a habitual way of working in which they may not reflect on the best way of doing things. When they experience a contrast to what they normally do, i.e.,an aha experience, changes to their practices are likely to occur.
