Comparing Mathematics Early Years Education in Spain, Portugal and Slovenia
2022
This work aims to examine how the learning of mathematics in early childhood is developed in different policies, particularly within the processes of formal education and care in early years institutions. A comparative analysis of early mathematics education policies across countries must consider cultural differences, teaching practice, structural differences and institutional framework conditions, as well as the initial training and professional knowledge of teachers and educators. Extracted from the official country regulations, the following pages include some of the main characteristics of the national systems of early childhood education and care (ECEC) in Portugal, Slovenia and Spain…
Varhaiskasvatushenkilöstön käsityksiä lasten tunteiden säätelytaitojen kehittymisestä – Käytäntöön integroitu koulutus ammatillisen kehittymisen tuke…
2021
Lapset tarvitsevat aikuisen tukea oppiakseen säätelemään tunteitaan. Jotta varhaiskasvatuksen ammattilainen voi tarjota lapsille monipuolista ja sensitiivistä tunteiden säätelyn tukea osana pedagogista toimintaa, häneltä odotetaan oman roolin tiedostamista lapsen tunteiden kanssasäätelijänä. Lasten tunteiden säätelytaitojen tukeminen pedagogisessa toiminnassa rakentuu kanssasäätelijän teoreettiselle tiedolle ja vaatii sen soveltamista käytännössä. Tässä tutkimuksessa on tarkasteltu, millaisia käsityksiä varhaiskasvatushenkilöstöllä on tunteiden kanssasäätelystä, ja kuinka käsitykset muuttuvat, kun heidän tietopohjaansa tunteiden kanssasäätelystä vahvistetaan työhön integroidun koulutuskokon…

The goal was to provide an overview of the ECE teachers’ …
Programowanie w edukacji wczesnoszkolnej - złożenia a rzeczywistość
2018
Opanowanie wiedzy i umiejętności związanych z programowaniem jest warunkiem skutecznego funkcjonowania człowieka we współczesnym świecie, ale również determinantem wejścia ludzkości na kolejny poziom rozwoju. Osoby, które ich nie posiadają, są często jedynie bezkrytycznymi wykonawcami cudzych poleceń, umieszczonych w programach komputerowych zainstalowanych w urządzeniach przez nich stosowanych. Oddziaływania dotyczące kształtowania w/w kompetencji są wpisane w proces edukacyjny współczesnej szkoły (także w odniesieniu do edukacji wczesnoszkolnej). Wyraźnie mówi o nich podstawa programowa kształcenia ogólnego. Nauczyciele w przeważającej mierze znają i stosują się do jej zapisów. Wykorzystu…
Lo zerosei di fronte all’emergenza COVID. Esperienze, ricerche e riflessioni pedagogiche
2022
Il volume prende le mosse da un incontro on line organizzato il 28 novembre 2020 dal Gruppo SIPED Infanzia sul tema: Lo zero-sei di fronte all’emergenza COVID. In quella sede vennero proposte riflessioni particolarmente interessanti, che hanno trovato poi un approfondimento scientifico nei diversi contributi raccolti. È suddiviso in tre parti tra loro interrelate, che spaziano temporalmente dall’improvvisa chiusura totale dei servizi per l’infanzia a marzo 2020, fino alle prime esperienze di riapertura in nuovi assetti organizzativi nell’a.s. 2020-21. La situazione pandemica e le sue conseguenze pratiche, hanno generato criticità gestionali, oltre a preoccupazione e disorientamento nel pers…
Interrelation between close teacher-student relationships and engagement : the case of Finnish preschools
2016
The study examined the interrelation between positive teacher-student relationships and teacher-reported level of engagement in Finnish preschool settings. Fifty preschool teachers working in Jyväskylä city area answered questionnaires in which they de-scribed 50 randomly selected students from their class (28 girls and 22 boys), one stu-dent for each teacher. Questionnaires consisted of two parts and measured the quality of teacher-child relationships and the level of children’s emotional and behavioural en-gagement. The results showed that quality of teacher-child relationships in the context of Finnish preschools is closely interrelated with the level of children’s engagement into the le…

¿Qué resultados de aprendizaje alcanzan los futuros maestros de Infantil cuando planifican unidades didácticas de ciencias?
2017
En este trabajo se analizan los resultados de aprendizaje respecto a las ciencias, que alcanzan los futuros maestros y maestras de educación infantil cuando preparan unidades didácticas. Para ello, se ha construido un instrumento de análisis a partir de los resultados de aprendizaje que cabría esperar teniendo en cuenta las competencias que, para nuestra área de conocimiento, aparecen en la memoria de título de Grado de Maestro/a en Educación Infantil de la Universidad de Valencia. Tres investigadores independientes, haciendo uso de dicho instrumento, han analizado 19 unidades didácticas elaboradas por 76 alumnos del 4º curso durante dos cursos académicos consecutivos, cuando cursan la mate…
The Synbiotic Combination of Akkermansia muciniphila and Quercetin Ameliorates Early Obesity and NAFLD through Gut Microbiota Reshaping and Bile Acid…
2021
Gut microbiota plays a key role in obesity and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), so synbiotics could be a therapeutic alternative. We aim to evaluate a nutritional intervention together with the administration of the bacteria Akkermansia muciniphila and the antioxidant quercetin in an in vivo model of early obesity and NAFLD. 21-day-old rats were fed with control or high-fat diet for six weeks. Then, all animals received control diet supplemented with/without quercetin and/or A. muciniphila for three weeks. Gut microbiota, NAFLD-related parameters, circulating bile acids (BAs) and liver gene expression were analyzed. The colonization with A. muciniphila was associated with less bod…
