Próba implementacji techniki rysunku na dowolny temat na grunt praktyki pedagogicznej
2022
Rysunek na dowolny temat jest komunikatem symbolicznym i tak powinien być odczytywany. Służy temu analiza oparta na kryteriach oceny, które są płynne i zależne od intencji badacza. Rozumienie rysunku powinno przebiegać podobnie jak przebiega rozumienie wszystkich wytworów kultury duchowej człowieka. Podstawą rozumienia wytworów kultury jest interpretacja, polegająca na odczytywaniu znaczeń symboli obecnych w tradycji (mity, baśnie) i współczesnej kulturze dziecka (bajki, świat wirtualny, media). Jej celem jest poznanie i (z)rozumienie dziecka. W pracy pedagoga interpretacja rysunku dziecka polega na poszukiwaniu jego sensu poprzez odczytywanie znaczeń symboli występujących we wzajemnych pow…
Lasten osallisuuden jännitteet varhaiskasvatuksessa
2021
Lasten osallisuus on varhaiskasvatuksessa pedagogisen toiminnan keskeinen tavoite. Osallisuuden toteutuminen voi olla kuitenkin käytännössä vaikeaa. Sitä hankaloittavat lasten osallisuuden epäselvä teoreettinen määrittely, tiedon puute osallisuutta tukevista käytännöistä ja toimintatavoista sekä varhaiskasvatuksen resursoinnin kysymykset. Varhaiskasvatuksen lapsiryhmät ovat yhä monimuotoisempia, ja myös siksi on tärkeää kehittää kasvattajien osaamista lasten osallisuuden huomioon ottamisessa. Jotta lasten osallisuus ja oikeudet osataan tunnistaa, on tunnettava niihin liittyvää tutkimustietoa ja lainsäädäntöä sekä uusia toimintatapoja. Artikkelissa tarkastelemme, millaista oli Oiva – Lasten …
Movement and physical activity in early childhood education and care in the Nordic countries
2022
Background The World Health Organization (WHO) acknowledges the importance of preschool children taking part in comprehensive physical activities supporting, among other things, their motor development, and competencies. A growing number of children attend early childhood education and care (ECEC), and expectations that this will support the development and learning of the youngest children are high. ECEC are governed by different policies embodied in both laws and curricula, and the framework of a curriculum plays a key role in ensuring the quality of ECEC services. The documents represent the content society wants the ECEC institutions to disseminate, and set out the values, objectives, a…
Digital Stories with Children: Examining Digital Storytelling as a Pedagogical Process in ECEC
2020
Modern digital technologies have become common in educational settings of all levels. This has made the use of digital storytelling (DST) more applicable in early childhood education and care (ECEC). This paper examines the implementation of DST, aiming to answer the following questions: 1) How to support children’s active participation throughout the DST process in ECEC, and 2) how do 21st century skills manifest in the DST process? The study was conducted between 2017 and 2018, when two cycles of DST projects were implemented in four Finnish ECEC centres as part of a European project. The data consist of interviews with educators (N=15) and children (N=51), as well as documentation of the…

Pleasure of eating: a lever for the adoption of healthy eating in children
2018
Childhood obesity, despite a recent stabilization, is still a matter of concerns in the European region and elsewhere (WHO, 2017), i.e. in France (where it concerned 17% of 3-14 y-old children in 2015; INCA3). Since many years, public health campaigns have encouraged healthy eating in many countries over the world, in particular by highlighting the beneficial effect on health of some food groups (e.g., in France “For your health, eat five fruits and vegetables a day”). However, the WHO noted in 2017 that among adolescents, “daily consumption of fruit and vegetables increased slightly between 2002 and 2014, but overall prevalence remains low ; and daily consumption of sugary soft drinks and …
Global Perspective on Marital Satisfaction
2020
Across the world, millions of couples get married each year. One of the strongest predictors of whether partners will remain in their relationship is their reported satisfaction. Marital satisfaction is commonly found to be a key predictor of both individual and relational well-being. Despite its importance in predicting relationship longevity, there are relatively few empirical research studies examining predictors of marital satisfaction outside of a Western context. To address this gap in the literature and complete the existing knowledge about global predictors of marital satisfaction, we used an open-access database of self-reported assessments of self-reported marital satisfaction wit…
Education in moral values of JUDO school students
2019
Introduction. By linking human morality with cognitive development, Profesor Jigoro Kano was convinced that discovering knowledge and understanding it would shape the meaning of good and evil among young judokas, as well as their ability to distinguish what is good and what is bad [Kano 2005, Mifune 2004]. Problem and aim.

Digital Devices Use and Language Skills in Children between 8 and 36 Month
2020
Background: Over the past decade, the use of digital tools has grown and research evidence suggests that traditional media and new media offer both benefits and health risks for young children. The abilities to understand and use language represent two of the most important competencies developed during the first 3 years of life through the interaction of the child with people, objects, events, and other environmental factors. The main goal of our study is to evaluate the relationship between digital devices use and language abilities in children between 8 and 36 month, also considering the influence of several factors. Materials and Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional observational stu…

Los niños con TEA presentan problemas en las habilidades sociales, emocionales, de comunicación y de la vida diaria. Por otra parte, presentan dificultades desde la primera infancia en áreas clave para el aprendizaje y para su desarrollo. Debido a estas características la mayoría de los niños con TEA necesitan programas específicos de inclusión educativa; en este sentido, la acción y la atención temprana es muy importante p…
