Structured around Bishop's six fundamental mathematical activities,
this book brings together examples of mathematics education from a
range of countries to help readers broaden their view on maths and
its interrelationship to other aspects of life. Considering
different educational traditions and diverse contexts, and
illustrating theory through the use of real-life vignettes
throughout, this book encourages readers to review, reflect on, and
critique their own practice when conducting activities on
explaining, counting, measuring, locating, designing, and playing.
Aimed at early childhood educators and practitioners looking to
improve the mathematics learning experience for all their students,
this practical and accessible guide provides the knowledge and
tools to help every child.
The chapters in this book investigate and reflect on many of the
issues and challenges raised by the current trends and tensions in
early childhood mathematics education. They emanate from seven
countries - Australia, Northern Ireland, Norway, Portugal, Spain,
Sweden, and Switzerland. Ever since Froebel invented the
kindergarten, mathematics has been a part of early childhood
pedagogy. Mathematics is an important part of children's daily
life, which helps them to understand the world around them.
Nowadays, early childhood mathematics is in the international
spotlight. Partly this is the result of myriad studies that seem to
show that early childhood mathematics achievement is a strong
predictor of success or otherwise in future school mathematics,
other school subjects, and life itself. Another influence on early
childhood mathematics education is the advent of the political and
advocacy juggernaut known as STEM (Science, Technology,
Engineering, and Mathematics). Early childhood mathematics
education is important for children's present and future learning.
This book provides a strong collection of current research for the
consideration of all in the early childhood education field. It was
originally published as a special issue of the European Early
Childhood Education Research Journal.

Kai Oliver Thiele analyses M&As between companies from
different cultures, which in general impose unique challenges, but
also offer invaluable opportunities for all parties. Since Japan
lags expectations regarding the amount of cross-border M&As, it
is the more important to understand the drivers of successful
cross-border acquisitions coming into the country. However, how the
employees' view on a merger can be successfully managed to leverage
the M&As' success rate remains yet unanswered. By focusing on
the employees' needs, this research seeks to contribute positively
to an increase of the cross-border M&As' success rate.
