Examining Levels of Involvement in the Early Years studies the
theory and rationale behind using young children's levels of
involvement as a tool for enhancing their experiential learning in
diverse settings by exploring values, beliefs, ideology,
resourcefulness and environmental contexts. Drawing on Laevers'
process-oriented Self-evaluation Instrument for Care Settings and
the Leuven Involvement Scale for Young Children, this book examines
the theoretical constructs that underpin the development of these
instruments as well as the practical implications of how and why
practitioners may use the scales in their settings. More
importantly, it looks at children's deep level learning
capabilities and reflects on the engaging possibilities this
presents. Using encounters with children and adults from a range of
settings, it covers: * connecting levels of involvement with local,
national, international and theoretical approaches; * embracing
levels of involvement; * involving the environment; * levels of
outdoor involvement; * engaging with adult involvement; * nurturing
involvement through observation, assessment and planning. Including
contributions from experts in the field, this book will be
essential reading for students, trainee early years practitioners
and all those wanting to continue their professional learning.
