Research Around the World

Research Around the World
European Early Childhood Education Research Association (EECERA)
www.eecera.org
 
  • What are some of the current international research topics?
    •  Early Education for diversity: starting from birth
    • Companionable learning: mechanism for holistic well-being development from birth
    • The dynamics of early childhood spaces: opportunities for outdoor play?
    • Children and the outdoor environment
    • Introducing children's perspectives and participation in research
    • Breaking methodological boundaries? Exploring visual, participatory methods with adults and young children
  • What surprising facts/insights/new ideas about early childhood did you gain from exploring this international early childhood website?
    • I was highly surprised to see such a vast array of research topics to look at on this website. I also felt it was interesting that the European Early Childhood Education Research Journal groups together topics for special issues. This seems to be an easy way for reference on a specific topic and is a helpful way to share information with parents and staff. Furthermore, the journals incorporated articles and research from other countries, such as China and Australia. 
  • What other noteworthy information did you find on this website?
    • I found it very helpful that some articles had free access to them and all topics included the abstracts. Both are always very helpful when doing research and searching for specific information on a topic.

  1. Beau,

    I really enjoyed reading your blog!!! The website you chose does have a variety of topics and are interesting. There are so many international websites that request a fee in order to receive an email. Thank you for sharing your web site.
