Teacher Research In Reggio Emilia, Italy: Essence Of A Dynamic, Evolving Role., Carolyn P. Edwards, Lella Gandini Jan 2015

Teacher Research In Reggio Emilia, Italy: Essence Of A Dynamic, Evolving Role., Carolyn P. Edwards, Lella Gandini

Department of Child, Youth, and Family Studies: Faculty Publications

Many aspects of the Reggio Emilia experience are fascinating to American educators, but perhaps none more than the role of the teacher. How do teachers (infant-toddler and preschool) support, facilitate, and guide children to the complex levels seen in classroom interactions as well as the creative works children produce? Certainly, the teacher’s role has intrigued both of us ever since we began our studies there, even before we began collaborating on the three successive editions of The Hundred Languages of Children (Edwards, Gandini, & Forman, 1993, 1998, and 2012). In each of those volumes, one of us (Carolyn) contributed a …

Young Children And Families In The Information Age: Applications Of Technology In Early Childhood, Kelly Heider, Mary Renck Jalongo Dec 2014

Young Children And Families In The Information Age: Applications Of Technology In Early Childhood, Kelly Heider, Mary Renck Jalongo

Kelly Heider

This edited book presents the most recent theory, research and practice on information and technology literacy as it relates to the education of young children. Because computers have made it so easy to disseminate information, the amount of available information has grown at an exponential rate, making it impossible for educators to prepare students for the future without teaching them how to be effective information managers and technology users. Although much has been written about information literacy and technology literacy in secondary education, there is very little published research about these literacies in early childhood education. Recently, the National Association …
