Webinar: Why Document in Early Childhood Programs? Exploring the Benefits and Audiences of Pedagogical Documentation

 

Thursday, June 13th 2019

11:00 am - 12:30 pm 

Documentation takes many forms and is used for several purposes. Most often, we think of documentation as a form of communication with families and the wider community. Yet, it can be so much more! True pedagogical documentation is a tool for responding to children’s ideas, planning next steps, authentic assessment, and reflection on our own practices and thinking. It informs our work as much as it can inform families and other stakeholders.

In this webinar, presented by author and expert, Susan Stacey, M.A., we will see examples of many forms of documentation, including Learning Stories, and reflect about what works for different purposes and diverse audiences.

Join this illustrative webinar to:

  • understand the various forms of documentation and when to use each format,
  • see how documentation can be a ‘thinking tool’ that connects us with children’s ideas, strategies, and thinking,
  • learn to use documentation as a reflective practice that leads to teacher growth,
  • examine the documentation practices of Reggio Emilia and the influences these have had in North America.

ACEsConnection Monthly Highlights

 

Presentation: Are the Words "Toxic Stress" Toxic? Re-Thinking the Narrative About Early Life Stress



The concepts of “toxic stress” and “adverse childhood experiences” (ACEs) have captured professional and public attention in recent years. While this has helped to bring more resources and interest to early childhood issues, it has also resulted in some harmful language and imagery that depicts children, families, or entire communities as “broken” or beyond healing and resilience. In our concern about adversity, are we selling short the capacity of individuals and communities to heal and grow? Are we doing more harm than good by inadvertently reinforcing stereotypes about children and families of color? Join a conversation with other concerned professionals about how to shift the narrative around early life stress to one that focuses on root causes of stress and celebrates the resilience of children, families, and communities.

Make sure to log in to the ACEs Connection Bridge Community to see new resources and content that has been posted!
