Relevance Of The Framework To Pedagogical Practices
Posted: Sun Mar 06, 2016 10:59 pm
The Question is :
What is the relevance of the approved framework to pedagogical practices associated with providing experiences to support children’s play and learning?
Guidance: Refer to the EYLF for examples.
My answer is :
Pedogogy (the professional practice of educators including building and nurturing relationships, curriculum decision making, teaching and learning) has also gone through some major changes over time. Even though early child education has been mainly play and care based, the programs changed from structured theme and teacher lead programs, in the 1970’s and 1980’s, to the present time where a more child centred approach is taken. Currently, best practice sees children being regarded as active, capable learners – which underpins the National Quality Framework and is especially important in implementing the Early Years Learning Framework.
The Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) reaffirms the long held belief that children learn through play. In play children can:
. explore, create, improvise and imagine
. learn about friendships and how to negotiate with others in social situations
. learn, practise and master skills
. engage in problem solving, test out ideas, ask questions and build new understandings
. gain deep satisfaction and knowledge from following their own interests
. exercise freedom, choice, decision making and agency
. create stories about their experiences and their identities.
If any one can correct/advice me
Thank you in advance
