Check out this great piece by Andy Homden in the International Teacher Magazine as he looks back at some of the effective practices and outcomes from the past that seem just as relevant in today’s education systems, if not more so.  In our interactions with schools nowadays, we often come across teachers innovating and experimenting successfully with new approaches. A closer look often reveals that these new strategies are actually adaptations or enhancements of past educational practices. Our good friend, Andy's piece serves as both a source of inspiration and a reminder of the exceptional practices that have enriched education. https://lnkd.in/d-HQZV_5

Teachers’ expressed understandings concerning sustainability in the Norwegian ECE context | Open Access Jan H. Vikane & Torhild Erika L. Høydalsvik Pages: 450-461 | DOI: 10.1080/13504622.2023.2273785 Abstract Education for Sustainability (EfS) seeks to empower children with knowledge, skills, values, and attitudes to address global challenges while adhering to sustainability principles. This study investigates the conceptual understanding and pedagogical practices of EfS among early childhood education (ECE) teachers in Norway. Using mixed-methods design, data were collected through reflection notes, surveys, and didactic development projects, revealing fragmented understanding primarily focused on action-oriented, fact-based, and normative aspects of sustainability. The teachers emphasised waste sorting, recycling, and nature experiences, with limited attention to holistic and pluralistic perspectives. Despite curriculum mandates, sustainability had low implementation in ECE educational plans and collaboration meetings. The findings highlight the need for comprehensive teacher education and support to promote EfS and foster agents for sustainability in the context of ECE. #agency #conceptualunderstanding #earlychildhoodeducation #educationforsustainability #mixedmethoddesign #professionaldevelopment https://lnkd.in/ge_iFF_c
