This book brings together key authors from the Nordic countries (Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark and Iceland) to discuss theoretical and empirical research on families and children. Sharing the Nordic perspective from each of the five countries, the book highlights key ideas within and across the countries. The chapters provide an understanding of the history of the Nordic perspectives of family and children, present current innovative research on solutions to complex issues, and explore contemporary issues. Nordic countries continually attain high scores in lifestyle measures, quality of life and children’s outcomes. Much of this has to do with the specific culture and policy of the Nordic countries.

Exploring the importance of parental engagement in early childhood education, this book delves into research and practices in 25 countries to bring students, researchers, teachers and policy-makers insights into working families around the world. The incorporation and consideration of parental engagement and involvement in early childhood education are a new phenomenon to many countries. Yet, increasing research recognises the importance of parental engagement and involvement in early childhood education services, and the role both parents and teachers play to support children’s learning and development. Using a range of materials from curriculum to policy documents, Garvis et al. demonstrate differences in practices and terminologies pertaining to the topic and provide an international perspective on the importance of parental involvement and engagement in early childhood education services.The content covers a range of countries as well as countries beyond an ‘Anglo-Saxon’ perspective. The different policy settings across these countries highlight how countries work with, and involve, parents differently, which is useful for jurisdictions where early childhood education is a developing aspect of a country’s education system. Looking at cultural influences, partnership approaches, parental collaboration, institutional dominance and child involvement in parent meetings, the content offers readers real understanding of parental engagement and involvement in different settings. The readership includes students in early childhood education, and researchers, teachers, policy makers, and general members of the public interested in parental engagement or involvement in early childhood education across the globe.

Gender and Power in Early Childhood Education in Indonesia
AvVina Adriany
Inbunden, Engelska, 2024
2 404 kr
Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
Adriany explores gender discourses in early childhood education in Indonesia, as well as how teachers and children are engaged in the process of constructing, negotiating, and resisting dominant gender discourses in kindergartens.Using an ethnographic approach, Adriany explores how both the teachers and children are doing and undoing their gender. She adopts feminist poststructuralist and postcolonial theories through her research and, in that context, views gender as something fluid and unfixed. The book also investigates the methodological aspect where the authors have both an inside and outside perspective. Each chapter aims to present and complicate the taken-for-granted practices in kindergartens that relate to how gender and power are constructed. The findings of this book show the extent to which early childhood education becomes a space for the teachers and children to construct, negotiate, as well as resist dominant gender discourses in kindergartens.Offering insights into local and global contexts that shape gender values in early years, this book will be a valuable reference for researchers, scholars, and students in early childhood education, gender studies, and comparative education.

Creating Family–School Partnerships
From ‘Talking To’ Towards ‘Learning With’

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
Introducing a new model of family–school partnership, entitled ‘Pathways to Partnership’, Sandra presents a template to teachers and school leaders for developing authentic, genuine family–school partnerships that reflect contemporary global thinking and practice. She offers a new perspective on the family–school partnership, and provides support and guidance to school leaders to move away from outdated but ingrained approaches to more effective family–school partnerships.Globally, schools are becoming less an education centre and more of a hub that integrates health and social services. With this change, the way schools regard family involvement has also shifted, with family involvement being viewed as a strategically critical role. This shift has been influenced not just by the recent pandemic, but also by the global trend towards decentralisation and democratisation of the decision-making power in schools, in which parent empowerment is implicit. However, many schools have not followed a modern engagement model in the way they approach partnership with the family, and still espouse approaches that are school centric and outdated in their orientation. Pathways to Partnership helps move leaders from ‘talking to’, towards ‘learning with’ parents.Using case studies and the voices of parents and teachers to bring the content to life, Sandra provides strategies for school leaders and teachers to use to establish contemporary partnerships with families, ones that reflect current thinking that leads schools into authentic collaboration with their most important partners.

Political Agendas Entangling Everyday Family Life
AvPernille Juhl,Allan Westerling
Inbunden, Engelska, 2026
2 404 kr
Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
With the conditions of parenthood constantly changing, this book examines the reconfiguration of parenting as well as the political, institutional, and personal conditions that play a role in its development.Juhl and Westerling take a social psychological approach to the state of Denmark’s early childhood education policy, and the influence of government legislature on everyday family life. With contributions from guest authors Hansen, Lyndelse, and Stegeager, the volume seeks the answers to significant questions: what does the current political focus on early learning mean for parents and family living? How do transnational political agendas become meaningful in everyday life of parents and young children? How do new generations of parents come to understand themselves in the light of contemporary institutionalisation of parenthood? The discussion and answers to these questions shed light on the complexity of family practices and the perspectives of parents.The book is relevant and insightful for researchers and scholars in family policy, parenthood, and early childhood education and care. It can also be used by early childhood educators and care practitioners, as well as policymakers. Moreover, students at the postgraduate level who study education, psychology, and sociology will also benefit from this volume.
Digital Competence Development in Early Childhood Professionals
Harnessing the INSPIRE Model

Inbunden, Engelska, 2025

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This book examines innovative recent developments in curricula and pedagogical discourses around early childhood professionals’ digital competence development via professional development avenues. By expanding the notion of digital technologies integration, teaching perspectives, and educators’ practices in early childhood education, the authors not only conceptualise a professional development model, but also apply the model to bring together research across cultural contexts.Presenting findings from four cases, it offers research-informed tangible examples of teacher-centric professional development – one that inspires early childhood professionals, teacher educators, and pre-service teachers to use a variety of multimodal technologies within their repertoire of play-based practices (e.g., STEM-focused play for and with young children, teaching computational thinking).Case studies in this book are evidence of how practitioners can come together to build communities of practice to support their digital competence development as critical pedagogues and integrate a variety of evolving technology-based play (e.g., AI platforms), while engaging in paradigmatic debates. Readers will better appreciate the growth in pragmatic applications of technologies, together with theoretical perspectives and methodological approaches.This will be a valuable resource for any academic or practitioner, whether beginning or expert, in understanding how digital competence development occurs through cultural learnings, is inclusive, not discipline-based, is holistic. In reframing early childhood professionals’ digital competence development as a naturalistic process, it will inspire educators to integrate a range of digital and multimodal technologies in their everyday practices.
