cye-7228	Malone, Karen; Tranter, Paul	Children's Environmental Learning and the Use, Design and Management of Schoolgrounds	2023-04-06	Children, Youth and Environments; Vol. 13 No. 2 (2003): Children, Youth and Environments; 87-137	University of Cincinnati Press	eng	10.7721/chilyoutenvi.13.2.0087	https://journals.uc.edu/index.php/cye/article/download/7228/5846	This article examines school grounds as sites for play and environmental learning. It is based on a three-year project that involved 50 eight- to ten-year-old children at five Australian primary schools. Data collection occurred through multiple methods, including behavior mapping of children's play, interviews with children and teachers, and analysis of children's drawings of their schoolgrounds. The findings show large variations between the schools, particularly in the types of play and environmental learning in which children engage. These variations are related to variations in the physical qualities of the schoolground. However, we also found that school philosophies concerning the use and management of the outdoor school environment are equally or more important.

GLOBE students collect atmospheric, hydrologic, geologic, and biometric data from local study sites in order to monitor conditions in their community and make comparisons with other schools around the world. Students report their data via the Internet to the GLOBE network and to scientists around the world who incorporate GLOBE data in research projects. Since GLOBE's inception in 1995, more than one million students in over 14,000 schools around the world have taken part in the program. Currently, students and teachers from 105 countries are actively participating in GLOBE.

It describes the experience of coding maps created at the United Nations International Children's Conference on the Environment in Victoria, 2002, by 400 children ages 10 and 12 years old representing 60 countries. While there are challenges to using visual maps as research data, we show them as providing an opportunity to validate children's knowledge. Maps indicate that children have many ideas of what is required for environmental change and that they call for change both at a systemic and individual level. However, they view themselves more likely to prescribe for change rather than carry it out themselves. More broadly, the analysis speaks to the value of children's active involvement in research and development.

It highlights how the idea of childhood as a decontextualized and universal life phase characterized by dependence and vulnerability interacts with and is reinforced by a view of war-survivors as traumatized individuals, victims in need of remedial care. It argues for a paradigmatic shift towards understanding childhood as a highly diverse life phase shaped not simply by biological or psychological universals but also, and more importantly, by personal and environmental factors. This paradigmatic shift involves thinking about children as agents of their own development who, even during times of great adversity, consciously act upon and influence the environments in which they live.

In contrast, research in psychology and sociology takes its starting point from children’s own way of experiencing and understanding dens and focuses on mental and social aspects (e.g., as a place for special games, or as a secret place of retreat). Few studies reflect on the interesting intersection between these two ways of describing “dens” and its relevance for understanding children’s points of view in planning and design. Based on research of children aged 9-13 in as Swedish small town, the aim of this paper is twofold. First, to describe dens as physical objects in a physical context in which children choose to make dens, in this sense an adult/professional perspective; second, to portray children’s understanding and experiences of a den, thus a child’s perspective. The paper also comments on how planners can use these different perspectives to make environments child-friendly.

Mobilizing local governments to build safe, healthy, and environmentally sound educational institutions for African children, however, has proven difficult at best. This paper discusses problems involved in improving the conditions for education in Nairobi, Kenya, and describes the process undertaken by children in one inner-city slum to envision a safe, healthy school made of quality, inexpensive local materials and designed for the community’s unique environmental and social conditions. The purpose of the paper is to propose progressive, participatory ways to design, develop and deliver educational facilities in adverse environments, considering that the priorities of children, parents, local authorities, development agencies, and other groups often conflict.

A CD-ROM containing CSS installation instructions was obtained from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Their readability levels were determined using the SMOG test. The study demonstrated that the readability of instruction sets ranged from the seventh to twelfth grade levels, with an overall SMOG score of 10.34. No significant associations were found to exist between readability and seat prices. The authors thus conclude that CSS instruction manuals are written at a reading level that exceeds the reading skills of most American consumers.

In the eyes of the state and dominant society, these children are seen to be committing a social violation, as their very presence contradicts state ideological discourse on family values and ideas about public order. Such an offence justifies the ‘cleaning up’ of children from the streets, arrests, imprisonment and, in some extreme cases, torture and extermination. As a response to their marginalisation and subordination, street children in Yogyakarta, Central Java, have developed a ‘repertoire of strategies’ in order to survive. These include the appropriation of urban niches within the city, in which they are able to earn money, feel safe and find enjoyment. These spaces have become territories in which identities are constructed, and where alternative communities are formed, and where street kids have created collective solutions for the dilemmas they confront in their everyday lives. This paper is a social analysis of the street boys’ social world which exists within these marginal spaces. Using Visano’s (1990) concept of a street child’s life as a ‘career’, I examine the socialisation into the street child subculture: the Tikyan. By employing Turner’s (1985,1994) ‘selfcategorization’ theory, I discuss how a street boy’s individual identity construction and performance entails a continual interaction with the Tikyan collective identity. Further, by drawing on the work of subcultural theorists, I reflect on how the Tikyan have developed their own code of street ethics, values and hierarchies, as a reaction to, and a subversion of, their imposed exclusion. I show how the Tikyan actively reject their ‘victim’ or ‘deviant’ label, and ‘decorate’ street life so that it becomes agreeable in their eyes. Instead of complaining about their lives (which is considered bad form), they reinforce the things that they feel are good about living on the street. Always, they are attempting to look for proof that street life is better than 106 conventional life. Problems are often glossed over and treated with humour and a light-hearted disregard, and the children create a doctrine for themselves that it is ‘great in the street’; a cod-philosophy which is constructed to make life more tolerable. Over the months or years street children and youth learn to interact and comply with the expectations of their own group, and are more influenced by it. It is in this way that the Tikyan community enables a street child to establish a new identity, and is a means through which street children can voice their collective indignation at the way they are treated by mainstream society.

Their circumstances leave them without access to many of their human rights and excluded from mainstream society. Policies that affect these young people can range from broadbased to targeted initiatives- each brings advantages and disadvantages. This paper distinguishes three basic approaches that cut across this typology and describes how governments view and treat homeless street children. There are three main governmental approaches: reactive, protective and rights-based. The distinguishable impacts of each type of policy on the lives of homeless children who live in the streets are drawn out in this paper. Broad-based initiatives within a rights-based governmental approach, into which targeted initiatives by civil society can be integrated, seem a potentially effective combination for including homeless street children as participants in the wider society.

It looks at the background of poverty and family disintegration that resulted in the children being on the streets. It comments on public perceptions of street girls. The girls develop coping mechanisms: those living on the streets generally rely at least occasionally on the trade of sex. The article briefly discusses the difficulty of finding appropriate intervention, pointing to the intolerable damage to the lives of the girls on the one hand and their resistance to compulsory removal from the streets on the other.

It creates space for children's own experiences, perceptions, and concerns as a central component of childfocused development work. Empowering street and working children to reflect upon their experiences, articulate their views, plan effective programs and advocate for their own rights will enable them to challenge the status quo regarding children's place and power in society. The lessons are relevant to current academic discourse on the social construction of childhoods and to debates concerning good development practice with marginalized children. Preparing adults to listen to children can help minimize conflicts that may arise when street children advocate for their own rights due to disparities in power and differing perceptions among stakeholders (e.g., parents, police, non-government organizations). The paper also advocates for strategic approaches that build upon children's self esteem and give them access to key decision-makers.

The paper highlights the children’s life trajectories in terms of their own perceptions and representations and addresses key themes, such as the family, the process of going to the street and day to day living on the street. It discusses relationships with regard to the formation of groups and children’s interaction with adults on the street, and the processes of identity formation on the street which includes the perception of self and of others. The children’s perceptions of the positive and negative aspects of the street and their hopes for the future are discussed.

It considers implications of this heterogeneity for sampling and data collection, while advising caution in taking the validity of studies of street children at face value.

They are products of poverty, war, urbanization, political instability, family breakdown, and HIV/AIDS, among others. Many are not homeless, but primary income earners for their extended families. Many participate in the sex and drug trade because of limited income generation alternatives. How can we support these youth and increase their opportunities while respecting them as independent actors in their own lives? Street Kids International suggests a critical paradigm shift as the basis for being responsive and effective and describes its approaches for working with street youth as participants and assets within their present communities.

It aims at enabling children to analyze problems they encounter and to come up with practical solutions to deal with them. Based on approaches to popular education, the Shade Tree Theatre starts from the situation of children themselves, searching for their perspectives by using theatrical performance. This article presents the challenging process of reaching out to children working in the streets and building rapport with them. It describes the process of adult and peer facilitation through participation, dialogue and critical reflection. Although the Shade Tree Theatre is not part of existing interventions for working children, the approach empowers children through offering routes to the development of critical consciousness that will be of long-term benefit.

Childhood is crucial for developing bonding with place. This article recounts the work of an Anglican parish in helping children to explore their sense of place in inner city London. Understanding their perspective enabled the parish to counter the loss of play space in the local park. The initiative for this piece of research and development came from the Child in the Neighbourhood Group of The Children's Society and from the desire of the society to find new ways of working with grass roots organizations. In a social context where the sense of community has been progressively weakened, firstly by the growth of local government and now the cuts in public expenditure, churches remain an important locus of networking. Church networks can enhance their neighborhoods by taking the perspective of the children who live there.

Two contrasting groups were investigated: in the first group, children from A families were raised in living surroundings in which it was possible for children to play both unhindered by street traffic and without the presence of adults. In the second group, however, the children from В families could not leave their residence unaccompanied by adults. The results are based on (a) an intensive study of 20 families, (b) a telephone survey of 1726 families in the city of Zurich, and (c) a written survey of 926 families whose 5 year old children were cared for at home. The results show that unsuitable living surroundings considerably hinder the children's social and motor development and put a heavy strain on the parents. Unsuitable living surroundings, that is mainly those living surroundings dominated by street traffic, prevent the development of lively neighborhoods capable of mutual help.

The concept of a children's trade union and its empowerment as a tool for achieving this goal are discussed. The nature of community participation in the rural program is also highlighted, with particular stress on the participation of these communities in decisions which affect their lives, as the basic objective of this project is to empower children and rural communities to lead a self-reliant.
oai:ojs.journals.uc.edu:article/7314	Wilhjelm, Hanne	Children and Planning: A Recent Norwegian Reform to Improve the Physical Environment of Children and Adolescents	2023-04-26	Children, Youth and Environments; Vol. 12 No. 4 (1995): Children's Environments; 434-443	University of Cincinnati Press	eng	none	https://journals.uc.edu/index.php/cye/article/download/7314/5938	In 1989, the Norwegian Government adopted a reform that was intended to safeguard the interests of children and adolescents when planning the physical environment. Amendments to the Planning and Building Act, including the requirement that each municipality appoint a person to look after the interests of children and adolescents during public planning, and the national policy guidelines, have both helped to draw attention to the needs and rights of children and adolescents as regards the physical environment. One reason for the reform was an increasing recognition of a deteriorating situation for children and young people. Other reasons were probably more women in the administration ad in politics and not least the work of the Commissioner for Children. Experience so far has shown that the success of the reform depends on good advice and motivated recipients at the local municipal level. Whether or not the guidelines are used and the work of the children's representative, both depend on political will and concern for children's physical environment, at both the central and local level. At this point in time, no change in will can be found within the 'weighty' sectors of society, for example in the transport and communications sector.

In the Plantain Project the vulnerable aspects in children's local environment have been focused on. The project is designed to bring about measures to safeguard children in their own milieu in a local community in the town of Kristiansand in the south of Norway, through the participation of local nursery and primary schools. Fifty percent of the children in the primary school are immigrants. The idea behind the project is that shared cultural experiences outside in nature will, besides strengthening the bonds between adult and child, also increase community spirit and give people a greater sense of belonging to the local area and of being part of nature. In concrete terms this means that approximately 200 children go out on regular weekly excursions in nature. Parallel with this work being carried out by the primary school and nursery school, a municipal interdepartmental working group is looking into ways of making physical improvements in the housing area.

The work is initiated by the authors and funded by the National Committee for Local Community Environment inNorway. An important source of inspiration and information has been the research presented by many countries in the Programme on Educational Building (РЕВ), Organization for European Community Development (OECD). The main objective of this work is to provide information on planning and coordination of spaces for schools and other premises for the community. Why coordinate? What can be coordinated and how to coordinate are some of the questions we have to answer, in order to create a 'living' local community and meet the need for a more efficient use of resources.

The analysis model includes three indicator sets: (a) three background variables consisting of the families7 SES, a neighborhood quality factor, and a score representing the parents' involvement in the local community, (b) a group of 'process indices' mainly composed of network variables and indicators representing leisure time pursuits, and (c) two effect variables - school reports on conduct and academic achievement. The overall picture is that both the background variables and most of the network indices correlate with the outcome variables. When controlling for all other variables in the model, it appears that time spent with peers (particularly having many multiplex relations, i.e. dense and intimate friendships) and indulging in passive leisure consumption in gangs, contribute mostly to non-conforming behavior. On the other hand, network size in the context of organized leisure-time pursuits and the SES factor also appear to have significant, positive effects on school conduct and achievement in particular. Discussion of these findings is centered on the interplay between neighborhood quality factors, network processes, and leisure- time pursuits. A hypothesized model is suggested to explain this interplay.

The children involved in the research were all from the Pakistani ethnic minority but born in Britain, and attended nine different schools in four postcode districts of Sheffield. One hundred and seventy-one children aged 7-12 returned questionnaires in the summer of 1994. The results reveal that most children visit open spaces on a daily or weekly basis and that parks and playgrounds are the places which they value most. Bullying was mentioned most frequently as the reason for feeling uncomfortable. Activities such as swings and slides, watching sports events and listening to birds were undertaken by the majority of children. Common reasons for not undertaking activities were lack of facilities and non-availability of local public open spaces.

The impetus to create exhibitions of children's art involves the consideration of social, political and educational issues. Some exhibitions in London, Montreal, the USA, India and Australia over the last five decades are examined in terms of such issues, together with the motivation of the adults who organized them. The contemporary interest in using exhibitions as a means to reconstruct the learning process, and thereby to heighten their communicative potential is addressed. The Hundred Languages of Children exhibition from Reggio Emilia, Italy, is viewed as making a positive contribution to the creative potential of children's art exhibitions.

To throw the significance of these reform patterns into relief, they are contrasted to practices of the disciplinary mass institution, that is, those institutions which feature the bureaucratic administration of the assembly-line processing of matter, organisms, people or symbols. The movement from adisciplinary to a meaning-centered pedagogy is described. Successful models of educational reform dispense with the homogeneouspace designed for large groups engaged in uniform behavior. Order, once achieved by isolating, silencing, immobilizing, monitoring, and rating individuals, is now sought in sustained relationships and commitment to shared meaningful projects. The new sources of order permit amenities once prohibited: conversation, freedom of movement, comfort of the body, enhancement of relations to family and community, independent activity, responsibility for performance.

We argue that design elements can offer scaffolding to enable children to function at the boundaries of pre-existing capabilities. Critical design elements that afford the development of competency in preschool children include control, privacy, complexity, exploration, restoration, place identity, legibility, and safety. Control is the ability to use physical resources to meet user needs. The regulation of social interaction requires privacy. Balanced variety and mystery create a complex space that may encourage healthy environmental interactions. Similar environmental interactions may also take place in spaces that support exploration. Restorative environments provide a chance for recovery from fatigue. Ownership, attachment, and familiarity are feelings that can be expressed in the physical environment tosupport the development of place identities. Legible environments can be organized into a comprehensible pattern, preventing feelings of confusion. Safe environments minimize hazardous conditions that may prevent the development of competence.

On average across the three schools which participated in the study 23.8% of students reported being bullied once a week or more often. The bullying was reported as most frequently taking place during break-times in the relatively open playground spaces of the oval and hard surface play areas. In Study Two 365 students from one of the participating schools were further surveyed to understand the relationship between various indices of personal and inter-personal well-being and the quality of peer relationships in the playground environment. Students who reported being victimized were significantly more likely to report playing alone, feeling unhappier and less safe in the playground. The findings were discussed in terms of schools needing to address the issue of peer bullying and working to create a safer school environment for all children.

The instrument that was developed relates to a theoretical model of emotion with four basic components, namely; activation, orientation, evaluation, and emotional control. The development of the observational technique proceeded by defining and weighting a large number of explicit behaviors, where after real-life observations of children were carried out in order to determine the reliability, internal consistency and construct validity of the instrument. As concerns validity, hypotheses based on earlier findings were tested. On the whole the results were satisfactory. The instrument fulfilled the requirements of internal consistency and interobserver reliability. Results from a forthcoming study also show convergence between the activation scale and personality as measured by Pitkänen's personality test. The results suggest that the instrument may be useful when evaluating improvements in children's environments.

Together 115 children took 1740 photos of their homes, neighborhoods, schools and communities, and arranged them in journals. They analysed and commented on the images with words, drawings and decorations. To augment the visual and written information, they also participated in focus dyads (paired interviews), where they interpreted the photos and discussed issues in contemporary urban geography. Their journals are rich with environmental information and commentary adding layers of meaning to the photographic images. The children chronicle the desolate conditions and violence of the inner city, as well as places where they find adventure and pleasure. They describe landscapes that resemble wastelands and combat zones, and also places of color, humor, and comfort. Many children say they are having highly constrained environmental experiences. Again, their representation of the city underscores the hypothesis that former sanctuaries such as parks, playgrounds, public places and even some schools are now perceived as risky, threatening places. They also reveal that malls and other commercial nodes are among the few places where they feel safe, stimulated and mobile.

Analysis tools included questionnaires, interviews, drawings from children, and the hospital's incident report database which provided information about the environment and negative" behavior. The impact of the new design on the occurrence of behavioral incidents was examined. It was found that the locations for these behaviors changed from the previous building and that the number of behaviors dropped significantly during the "honeymoon period" following initial building occupation. The data indicated that more negative behaviors occurred in the new semi-private patient rooms than the dormitories of the old building, although staff supported the continued use of semi-private rooms. The results of the post-occupancy evaluation questionnaires and drawings are presented and design guidelines are proposed.	nan		.htm	text/html	86	4	48	Login | Children, Youth and Environments Skip to main content Skip to main navigation menu Skip to site footer Open Menu Current Archives Subscribe Submit About About the Journal Editorial Team Privacy Statement Contact Search Login Home / Login Login Required fields are marked with an asterisk: * Subscription required to access item.
