The conceptualisation and practice of play is considered core to
early childhood pedagogy. In this essential text, contributors from
a range of countries and cultures explore how play might be
defined, encouraged and interpreted in early childhood settings and
practice. Rethinking Play as Pedagogy provides a fresh perspective
of play as a purposeful pedagogy offering multi-layered
opportunities for learning and development. Written to provoke
group discussion and extend thinking, opportunities for
international comparison, points for reflection and editorial
provocations, this volume will help students engage critically with
a variety of understandings of play, and diverse approaches to
harnessing children's natural propensity to play. Considering the
role of the learning environment, the practitioner, the wider
community, and policy, chapters are divided into four key sections
which reflect major influences on practice and pedagogy: Being
alongside children Those who educate Embedding families and
communities Working with systems Offering in-depth discussion of
diverse perceptions, potentials and practicalities of early
childhood play, this text will enhance understanding, support
self-directed learning, and provoke and transform thinking at both
graduate and postgraduate levels, particularly in the field of
early childhood education and care, for students, educators,
integrated service providers and policy makers.
