An Interdisciplinary Approach to Early Childhood Education and Care
explores early childhood education and care in Australia from a
variety of perspectives, highlighting the complexity of working
within the field and the need for a truly interdisciplinary
approach. It argues that only a holistic understanding of each
perspective will allow a clear future for early childhood education
within Australia, and that all government parties should provide
better outcomes around policy and provision to ensure the support
and development of the sector. Chapters offer insights into how
children and families are positioned in educational reform by
examining current government policy, as well as individual and
collective initiatives. Key paradigms considered include
positivist, behavioural, developmental, economic, sociocultural,
and postmodern models. Garvis and Manning identify challenges to
the field and propose improvements needed to develop an
interdisciplinary approach to help close the disadvantage gap on
educational outcomes. With recommendations aimed at stakeholders
within different disciplines, it is hoped that this book will
encourage significant improvements to early childhood education and
care within Australia. Providing important insights into the
landscape of early childhood education and care, this book will
promote new ways of thinking of policy and provision development
for the future. As such, it will be of interest to researchers,
academics, and postgraduate students in the fields of early years
education, education policy and politics, and sociology of
education, as well as those studying childcare alongside economics,
criminology and sociology.
