Documentation as a tool for participation, learning and research
REAIE is thrilled to open registrations for our forthcoming 2022 Research Symposium. Developed as a collaboration with Reggio Children, Reggio Emilia, Italy, we look forward to bringing to you speakers directly from the Municipal schools of Reggio Emilia and from Australia.
The 2022 Research Symposium seeks to create dialogue amongst a research community aiming to make reference to the system of values and principles which give shape to the educational project of Reggio Emilia. In doing so, we seek to honour our responsibilities to advocate for, and promote these values within Australian contexts.
In Reggio Emilia, research represents one of the essential dimensions of the life of children and adults alike, a knowledge-building tension that must be recognised and valued. Shared research between adults and children is a priority practice of everyday life, an existential and ethical approach necessary for interpreting the complexity of the world, of phenomena, of systems of co-existence, and is a powerful instrument of renewal in education.
“Research made visible by means of the documentation builds learning, reformulates knowledge, underlies professional quality, and is proposed at the national and international levels as an element of pedagogical innovation.” Preschools and Infant Toddler Centres Istituzione of the Municipality of Reggio Emilia Reggio Emilia (2010) pp 11-12.SymposiumTopics
