Practices of Planning as a Reflection of Teaching and Learning Concepts in ECEC : The Cases of Finland and Slovenia

2018
The promotion of students’ engagement with school is an internationally acknowledged challenge in education. There is a need to examine the structure of the concept of student engagement and to discover the best practices for fostering it across societies.

The second aim was to test the measurement invariance of the Brief-SEI across t…
