{"product_id":"qualitative-studies-of-exploration-in-mariane-hedegaard-9781350199422","title":"Qualitative Studies of Exploration in Childhood Education: Cultures of Play and Learning in Transition","description":"This book uses the concept of exploration as a way of understanding transitions in children between the ages of 5 to 18 years old. Written by an international group of scholars from Australia, Brazil, China, Denmark, Finland, Greenland, India, Norway and the UK, the chapters offer a diverse set of case studies. The topics and themes covered include transitions in outdoor playtime, the transition to daycare, compassion in kindergarten, learning with fathers, transitions of Chinese traditional culture and disability. The chapters are organised into two parts, the first part covering macro transitions and the second covering micro-genetic transitions.\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003eThe contributors show how both macro and micro-genetic\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003etransitions influence children's everyday lives, and how these different transitions open up new possibilities for play, learning and development. The contributors draw on Vygotsky's cultural historical theory and the understanding that children's cultural formation takes form in a dialectic relation between children's interests and motives and the institutional settings they participate in.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Marilyn Fleer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1350199427\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350199422\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/04\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.13lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.56d","brand":"Marilyn Fleer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43982074872063,"sku":"9781350199422","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ecb209cf-b75d-4f4a-a08e-31cedb47828b.jpg?v=1683259106","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/qualitative-studies-of-exploration-in-mariane-hedegaard-9781350199422","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
