Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Professional experience represents the component of early childhood teacher education programs in which student teachers spend time in early childhood educational settings. Also known as practicum, field experience, teaching experience, center/school-based learning, or field-based learning, professional experience is when student teachers develop and apply skills as a teacher, learn to apply knowledge gained from teacher education course work, and develop a contextual understanding of teaching and learning in the everyday ECE environment. Professional experience also allows the socialization of student teachers into the early childhood profession under the guidance of a more experienced mentor teacher. The marrying together of practice and theory is valued for helping early childhood student teachers to understand the realities of learning and teaching while becoming informed by research as to best teaching practice. It is the context in which student teachers are given the...

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Compassion and empathy are important attributes in supporting social and cultural cohesion, yet there is limited research on how we can teach compassion and empathy in schools. Similarly, it is important to show compassion and empathy towards teachers in supporting their everyday work in a complex world. This chapter therefore shares past research that has explored how researchers have analysed various features of learning and teaching compassion and empathy. This includes a number of models of compassion and empathy. It will also outline the contributions to this book.

- Being able to speak different languages is important in today’s global world to allow communication and understanding. Countries may vary in how they support early language learning with immersion programmes. This paper specifically explores the steering documents in Finland, Sweden, and Australia for children attending early childhood education settings (children aged birth to five years). A content analysis was used to explore patterns. The descriptive comparison allows similarities and differences across the countries to emerge. As a result, a table describing the different immersion and monolingual approaches in respective country is presented. The paper concludes with a broader discussion on steering documents in early childhood education in regards to young children’s rights to learning languages and attending different immersion programmes within early childhood.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- While the majority of children in Sweden attend preschool, children of immigrant background have lower enrollment rates. Limited research has explored why immigrant families do not attend preschool. This study helps to fill this void by exploring the perspectives of 10 skilled immigrant mothers who do not send their children to preschool. Data were collected from semi-structured interviews with 10 mothers (via a convenience sample), before a themed analysis was conducted. Findings suggest the skilled immigrant mothers had concerns about child safety, their child's language development, and developing the home culture. Findings are important for policymakers and administrators wanting to increase preschool attendance rates for children from immigrant backgrounds.

An interdisciplinary approach to early childhood education and care
- 2017
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- An Interdisciplinary Approach to Early Childhood Education and Care explores early childhood education and care in Australia from a variety of perspectives, highlighting the complexity of working within the field and the need for a truly interdisciplinary approach. It argues that only a holistic understanding of each perspective will allow a clear future for early childhood education within Australia, and that all government parties should provide better outcomes around policy and provision to ensure the support and development of the sector. Chapters offer insights into how children and families are positioned in educational reform by examining current government policy, as well as individual and collective initiatives. Key paradigms considered include positivist, behavioural, developmental, economic, sociocultural, and postmodern models. Garvis and Manning identify challenges to the field and propose improvements needed to develop an interdisciplinary approach to help close the disadvantage gap on educational outcomes. With recommendations aimed at stakeholders within different disciplines, it is hoped that this book will encourage significant improvements to early childhood education and care within Australia. Providing important insights into the landscape of early childhood education and care, this book will promote new ways of thinking of policy and provision development for the future. As such, it will be of interest to researchers, academics, and postgraduate students in the fields of early years education, education policy and politics, and sociology of education, as well as those studying childcare alongside economics, criminology and sociology.
