This article explores a conversation between student teacher (ST) and three-year-old child regarding slug, using an eclectic variety of Conversation Analysis. The is selected as extreme case from the complete video material for PhD thesis. Through analysis interpretation, describes discusses importance adult taking dialogic stance to support concept learning emergent science, even when child's verbal participation initially limited. research question is: How can adults science young children through dialogue contributions are limited? shows that ST takes by sharing interest in slug mirroring body language glances, acknowledging contributions, asking questions providing information and, most importantly, wait time.

Este estudio presenta, como fruto de la colaboración escuela-universidad, el diseño, implementación y evaluación una intervención didáctica corte socioconstructivista naturaleza dialógica sobre las interacciones en los sistemas físicos (rampas caminos) educación infantil. La propuesta diseñada consta dos fases cuatro actividades distintas fue implementada un grupo (n = 20) aula infantil (5-6 años) contexto basado juego, movimiento autónomo libre elección. Durante implementación, se evaluaron habilidades científicas emergentes, complejidad construcciones realizadas, así efecto docente aprendizaje. Los resultados indican evolución positiva emergentes también grado sofisticación estructuras construidas. niños niñas fueron además capaces establecer relaciones causa efecto, hablar términos científicos posición, trayectoria velocidad.

Whilst there is a body of emerging literature related to science education for children aged 3 years and above, less known about educators' beliefs when planning the teaching concepts infants toddlers in group settings. This paper discusses how educators working with under 18 months age talk plan concepts. We undertook an educational experiment 6 11 1.1–2.0 (mean 1.6 years). An analysis digital data 18.1 h (5.2 adult-researcher data; 12.9 observations) revealed both roadblocks contradictions practices infant toddler learning Initial include focusing on activities not concepts, following interests introducing content, belief associated developmental restrictions regarding if resources are relevant/safe this period. These were genuine blocks shifting towards found conditions intervention, these resolved, giving more opportunities infant-toddler engagement learning.

Abstract Calls to bring more equity into science education research (McWayne and Melzi, 2023) are most notable for early childhood. We know very little about the teaching of infants toddlers, yet this is where begins. To address dearth in research, we undertook an in‐depth intervention study Australian childhood center with six educators working 11 toddlers learning (1.1–2.0 years; mean 1.6) identify how support a play‐based setting over 10 sessions. Specifically, our question was do create conditions interact science. found form co‐operation between that centered on educator sensitivity noticing science, generating rather than following infant interest, focused thinking spaces, use scientific language by educators, planned conceptual progression, props as placeholders meaning acted pivots prompts imaginary situations. argue under taught infants, greater insights teach such young children possible, thereby making available evidence‐informed practice researched area guide toddlers.

We concluded there unique relationship image formation, imagination. argue when is made available evident suggest educators have key role creating group settings.

Abstract Research examining conceptual development in pre-school age children has relied predominantly on children’s verbal responses and interactions. During infancy, however, immature language skills limit the use of such commonly used methods. Studying infants toddlers during pandemic added new challenges to this unique highly demanding research area. In chapter, we showcase how digital visual methods, developed introduced response methodological ‘crisis’, offer researchers a means through which many inherent studying very young children, can be overcome. To highlight affordances using artefacts analyse concept formation, chapter focuses science infancy toddlerhood. Indicative examples from implementation Conceptual PlayWorld as an educational experiment (see Chap. 2 ) illustrative data analysis with aged 8 36 months. It is shown that artefacts, subtleties reflected physical movement interactions (e.g., gestures, embodied peer interactions), captured later analysed. Key points are able look for, capture, dialectically interrelate when analysing formation specifically highlighted. We argue artifacts allow recreation body shading light dimensions child’s experience opening space for reflection researchers. Consequently, adopting dialectical lens analyzing data, possible insight into process it occurs young, non-verbal afforded.

The complexity of gear concepts, often misunderstood by young children, highlights the need for educational frameworks beyond simple play. To examine effects using prediction, observation, and explanation (POE) model in building block activities, a true experimental design was implemented. A total 49 preschoolers were randomly assigned to either an group, which engaged with blocks embedded POE model, or control followed instruction guide. Data gathered through pretests, posttests, two-week delayed tests administered all participants. theoretical framework this study based on emphasizing importance learning process. results revealed that had positive impacts fostering children’s acquisition concepts. Specifically, speed direction identified as most challenging concepts grasp. highlight critical role children's reflection these participants’ common naive conceptions about function, speed, identified. implications incorporating reflective practices early childhood education enhance concept address misconceptions.
