Play-responsive teaching in early childhood education

• This open access book develops a theoretical concept of teaching that is relevant to early childhood education, and based on children’s learning and development through play. It discusses theoretical premises and research on playing and learning, and proposes the development of play-responsive didaktik. It examines the processes and products of learning and development, teaching and its phylogenetic and ontogenetic development, as well as the ‘what’ of learning and didaktik. Next, it explores the actions, objects and meaning of play and provides insight into the diversity of beliefs about the practices of play. The book presents ideas on how combined research and development projects can be carried out, providing incentive and a model for practice development and research. The second part of the book consists of empirical studies on teacher’s playing skills and examples of play with very young as well as older children.Table of contentsPart IDeveloping Play-responsive Didaktik – Mission Impossible?Learning, Teaching, and DidaktikPlaying, Playworlds, and Early Childhood EducationA Combined Research and Development ProjectPart IIThe Lava-Shark: Teachers Attempting to Enter Children’s PlayThe Lion and the Mouse: How and Why Teachers Succeed in Becoming Participants in Children’s Ongoing PlayGoldilocks and Her Motorcycle: Establishing Narrative FramesThe Triangle-Lady and Billy Goats Gruff: Constituting Contents for Learning in PlayWhen Kroko-the-Crocodile Got SickThe Magical Fruits: Establishing a Narrative Play Frame for Mutual Problem SolvingThe Letter Thief: From Playing to Teaching to Learning to PlayingPart IIIA Play-responsive Early Childhood Education didaktik
