Research Around the World


After evaluating the European Early Childhood Education Research Association, I found an article titled “‘Looking and listening-in’: a methodological approach to generating insights into infants' experiences of early childhood education and care settings”.  This article focused on how infants can benefit from early childhood education.   It was interesting that the research focused on “looking and listening-in having dual utility: as a methodological approach for helping us to edge closer to understanding the infant's experience, and as a way of describing how the infant made meaning of his experience” (EECERA, 2010). This research is important to early childhood education because our agency started an early start program last year for infants and toddlers. 

 

The site also provides a back catalogue that provides access to older research articles.  Early childhood educators can use this site to find valuable information about research projects.
