The potential of pedagogical documentation, By Jacinthe Nguyen Can learning be visible? Children’s and teacher’s learning’s processes visible through pedagogical documentation. Life is full of learning moments for children as well as for adults. But how can we illustrate this learning in a manner visible to others? In the Reggio Emilia approach, children are seen as active and competent learners; and the use of pedagogical documentation reflects this view through exhibiting, analysing and reflecting on children’s learning (Patterson, 2005).

Foremost among the concerns and of interest to child development specialists are practices of socialization and culturally-relevant educational practices and programs. The basic purpose of the child developmental specialist is to enhance the child’s ability to develop on both social and cognitive levels, including language proficiency. (Goss, n.d.). The NCLB Act addressed the way children with disabilities are assessed. For instance, the Act mandated a change from the overreliance on objective tests to alternative forms of assessment that help students develop their talent (Eisner,
QUESTION 1. Compare and contrast any 2 early childhood development theories. 2. Explain how the theories help us support children in the learning environment PART ONE Early childhood development is defined as “a set of concepts, principles, and facts that explain, describe and account for the processes involved in change from immature to mature status and functioning” (Katz, 1996, p. 137)Early childhood is a profession and so we must be grounded in the theories of early childhood development. These theories are the foundation of the early childhood.
Would you select this toy for a child in this age group? Why or Why Not? Yes! Because the book like I mentioned before can teach the child various different things and help them build skills they might have already mastered. Toy 2: Building Blocks Description: These are building blocks which can teach children many things such as fine motor and gross motor skills.
By understanding the dynamic of these relationships, a teacher understands the development and learning of students and seeks opportunities to positively support not only their intellectual development, but also social and personal as well. Children are children. For the most part, their developmental patterns can be predicted. Understanding the different stages of development can give teachers insight to not only academic performance, but also behaviors. This paper will focus on the learning theory of adolescents, primarily middle school students.
KEEP emphasises that secure relationships are valuable for effective learning in children. The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) include forming secure relationships and learning through play as key elements. In my setting I adopt evidence-based practice: by building on skills gained from personal experiences both from childhood and from bringing up three children of my own; by undertaking relevant training and by sharing information with colleagues. Evidence-based practice helps support positive outcomes for children in many ways including: to ask questions about injuries that can’t be explained satisfactorily (Baby P enquiry); the value of early learning through ‘guided play’ (EPPE project) and reflective practice and self-evaluation being important (SPEEL

Emerging and Existing Technologies and Children and Young people’s learning. 1 Introduction This report will explore the various methods in which emerging and existing forms of communication through ICT can be used to enhance learning across the curriculum. For this assignment I am going to evaluate the outcomes for using computers and interactive whiteboards in Primary schools. I currently work with children aged five and six that are using both these technologies as part of their everyday learning. So from using different resources and information I am hoping to find out ways in which they assist and encourage children to use different learning methods to foster an enjoyment of learning.
