International Perspectives in the Early Years Zusammenfassung

International Perspectives in the Early Years Linda Miller

'This informative and wide-ranging book argues persuasively for the value of multiple perspectives, both international and disciplinary, in the study and practice of early childhood education, because they feed our imaginations and provoke us to think. And while illustrating the many differences that exist between countries, it highlights the shared issues confronting us, wherever we live.' - Emeritus Professor Peter Moss, Institute of Education, University of London

Stemming from original research in the field, a range of expert contributors explore the key themes and debates surrounding international perspectives on Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC). Drawing on studies carried out in Norway, Mexico, France, Hungary and many more countries, the book covers a wide range of topics including:

  • the relationship between early childhood and primary education
  • gender and play in ECEC
  • curriculum
  • inclusion
  • early interventions
  • working with families
  • place-based learning

With case studies, detailed suggestions for further reading at different levels and discussion points, this is a key text for students of Early Years at all levels, from Foundation Degree to Masters, as well as current early years practitioners.

Linda Miller is Professor Emeritus of Early Years, The Open University.

Claire Cameron is Senior Reader in Education at the Thomas Coram Research Unit, Institute of Education, University of London.

International Perspectives in the Early Years Bewertungen

'This informative and wide-ranging book argues persuasively for the value of multiple perspectives, both international and disciplinary, in the study and practice of early childhood education, because they feed our imaginations and provoke us to think. And while illustrating the many differences that exist between countries, it highlights the shared issues confronting us, wherever we live.' -- Emeritus Professor Peter Moss
I would recommend International Perspectives in the Early Years to those studying and working in this area. The writers' passion for the welfare of children is obvious and the book goes beyond that which would be provided by an introductory textbook. The book is thought provoking and would be particularly useful to those looking for research ideas of their own. -- Graham Jones, University of Wolverhampton

Stemming from original research in the field, this book features a range of expert contributors who, between them, explore the key issues, themes and debates, surrounding international perspectives on early childhood education and care. From Norway to Mexico, and from France to Hungary, and via many other countries, a wide variety of topics are covered, demonstrating the shared issues confronting us, despite the many differences.

-- Martine Horvath
The book is enjoyable to read and provides interesting insights into early childhood. Each chapter concludes with a summary of the chapter and prompts to enable the reader to reflect on the topic in their own contexts. I also liked each chapter having a list of recommended readings, categorised to suit students across all levels of study. The language used through the book was simple but profound and would appeal to students and early childhood practitioners. The diversity of examples and experiences that the book offers to the reader is enriching and provides opportunities for further reflection and research. -- Pearl D'Silva, New Zealand Tertiary College
