The most useful thing about this book is that it clearly elaborates important theoretical ideas and illustrates how these are relevant to everyday practices in early childhood settings and to the deeply held principles and understanding of practitioners′- Early Education    `I recommend this book... as an insight into new possibilities for teaching and thinking. It is rethinking gender education in early childhood education′ - New Childhood      `A thought-provoking text which will make practitioners examine their children′s behaviour and play in a fresh light′-  Christine Marsh, Manchester Metropolitan University      ′A major contribution to the international literature on gender in early childhood .… Glenda MacNaughton has done a terrific job in making difficult theory accessible for teachers and student teachers. Her consistent use of plentiful examples and explorations of how different theories held by teachers might impact on their practice will be tremendously useful to teachers and teacher educators ′ - Debbie Epstein, Centre for Research and Education on Gender, Institute of Education, London      `Invaluable for early childhood teachers, for students in teacher training, for teacher educators and for researchers who are wanting to work with teachers′ -  Bronwyn Davies, James Cook University, author of Frogs and Snails and Feminist Tales      Rethinking Gender in Early Childhood Education reveals how the focus on individual development that is promoted in early childhood education does not  produce gender equity. Rather, everyday teaching practices influence the gendering of young children′s identities. Glenda MacNaughton draws on theory and research to explain this and to develop approaches, which open up new possibilities for both boys and girls.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49516373967121,"sku":"GOR004898600","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50150008029457,"sku":"GOR008098341","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50362288406801,"sku":"CIN0761968202G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0761968202.jpg?v=1750848938"},{"product_id":"doing-early-childhood-research-book-glenda-macnaughton-9780335209026","title":"Doing Early Childhood Research","description":"There are a growing number of courses on early childhood education at university level. This has placed new demands on both students and staff as research is a key feature of many of these courses. Research training is an important element in both undergraduate and postgraduate degrees in early childhood education and there is a genuine need for an accessible textbook that addresses the particular research issues which are a feature of this important field. Doing Early Childhood Research introduces the most common qualitative and quantitative methods in the early childhood context. The contributors  cover a wide range of conventional and newer approaches including observation, surveys, action research, ethnography, policy analysis and poststructuralist approaches. The reader is shown step by step how to select a topic, review the literature, design their research project, analyse data and produce a report. Throughout the emphasis is on practical application of the methods and the text is illustrated by a wide range of examples and case studies. Each chapter includes checklists, explanations of key concepts, annotated further reading and questions for reflection. Written by leading international early childhood researchers, this book is a standard introduction to research in the early childhood field.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49594468237585,"sku":"GOR001337505","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49634434154769,"sku":"GOR004565180","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0335209025.jpg?v=1751071537"},{"product_id":"doing-early-childhood-research-book-glenda-macnaughton-9780367717964","title":"Doing Early Childhood Research","description":"Doing Early Childhood Research demystifies the research process. An international team of experienced researchers shows how to select methods which are appropriate for working with young children in early childhood settings or at home.  They provide a thorough introduction to the most common research methods used in the early childhood context. Reflecting the multidisciplinary nature of much early childhood research, they cover a wide range of conventional and newer methods including observation, small surveys, interviews with adults and children, action research, ethnography and quasi-experimental approaches.   They explain clearly how to set up research projects which are theoretically grounded, well-designed, rigorously analysed, feasible and ethically based. Each chapter is illustrated with examples.  Widely used by early childhood researchers in many countries, this second edition of Doing Early Childhood Research has been fully revised. It includes new chapters on beginning research, mixed methods research, interviewing children, and working with Indigenous children, and also new case study chapters. It is essential reading for novice, initial career and experienced researchers.  'It is rare for any research methodology book to cover so much ground, and contain so many different kinds of resources between two covers.' - Journal of Education for Teaching 'As a guide for new and inexperienced researchers, it is second to none.' - British Journal of Educational Studies","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53360173416721,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53360173449489,"sku":"NIN9780367717964","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780367717964.jpg?v=1774933350"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-glenda-macnaughton.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
