- summary: Thus postsecondary institutions, along with professional associations, have served as the foundation for ideas of ECEC professionalism in Canada and its further development. The evolution of professionalism in Canadian ECEC is directly related to how a system for ECEC is developing—or not—in Canada.

- summary: Competing enactments of professionalism are evident in the values, knowledge, and practices of early childhood educators. There are benefits from the standpoint of public perception, yet there is a simultaneous playing into the inclination or expectation to position early childhood educators and their field within conformist perspectives ruled by a regulatory gaze (Foucault, 1978; Osgood, 2006).

- title: Negotiating Status: The Impact of Union Contracts on the Professional Role of RECEs in Ontario's Full-Day Kindergarten Programs
- date: 2016-02-12
- words: 6594
- flesch: 36
- summary: Using a comparative text analysis approach, this paper examines how the program and policy intent articulated in Ontario’s Education Act to establish professional early learning pedagogical teams has been realized through policy documents such as union contracts. In particular, the impact of union contracts on the new professional role and status of RECEs in the education sector is examined, including the material gains and potential losses realized by the RECEs in FDK based on their union contracts through wages, benefits, and working conditions.

- summary: Educator We categorized participants’ discussions of the lack of professional development opportunities and the negative views of administrators, teachers, and staff as internal perceptions that devalue early years educators. The participating educators also identified perceptions of parents and the general public regarding the value of early years educators as an obstacle to professionalism and constructing a professional identity.

- summary: Connecting the dots: Director qualifications, instructional leadership practices, and learning environment in early childhood programs. A two-pronged evaluation strategy was used with the participants consisting of (a) on-site completion of Talan and Bloom’s (2004) program administration scale (PAS) to measure administrative quality, and Harms, Clifford, and Cryer’s (1998) revised early childhood environmental rating scale (ECERS-R) to evaluate global program quality; and (b) three self-completed questionnaires, one based on the occupational standards, the second on previously identified effective mentoring attitudes and predispositions and professional and leadership practices that contribute to reflective practice, continuous learning, and enhancing program quality, and the third on graduates’ perceptions of the extent to which MPCC contributed to their professional development.

- summary: The founders of childcare advocacy in Canada are slowly retiring from the movement while a younger generation of women, overburdened with their paid and unpaid responsibilities, struggles to help keep the movement alive. This study has revealed that ECEs are not currently taking on macro-level childcare advocacy—even though their personal and professional well-being is often at stake.

- title: Pedagogical Narrations and Leadership in Early Childhood Education as Thinking in Moments of Not Knowing
- date: 2016-02-12
- words: 8025
- flesch: 47
- summary: Pedagogical narration involves a process through which early childhood educators create and share narratives about significant pedagogical occurrences with children from their early childhood settings with the purpose of engaging others in critical dialogue where construction of children’s identities and the values embedded in ECE practices are made visible and open for disputation and renewal. Pedagogical narration is a term that we use in British Columbia to describe a process through which early childhood educators document (by means of photography, video or audio recording, and collection of children’s creations) and then share narratives about significant pedagogical occurrences from their early childhood settings with the purpose of engaging others (children, colleagues, parents) in critical dialogue where assumptions about early childhood pedagogical practices and children’s identities are made visible and open for disputation and renewal.

- summary: The focus of the newly amalgamated Department was on a “continuum of learning” as introduced in the plan, Putting Children First, “which will better prepare young children for the future” (GNB, 2012, June 7, Press Release). While EYE-DA testing is ongoing and powerful, I conclude that the recent pan-Canadian uptake of curriculum frameworks and pedagogical documentation may incite counter possibilities and provocations for those of us working with young children.

- summary: For instance, outdoor spaces that provide a variety of play options, such as imaginative/dramatic play, building, digging, running, jumping, swinging, and climbing, offer children the opportunity to develop both physically and socially and to enhance their reasoning and observation skills (Clements, 2004; Handler & Epstein, 2010; Nature Action Collaborative for Children, n.d.; Stephenson, 2003). Play in nature offers varying degrees of risk or challenge, thereby giving children the opportunity to determine their physical or social limits and to choose whether to challenge themselves further (Almon, 2009; Copeland, Sherman, Kendeigh, Kalkwarf, & Saelens, 2012; Handler & Epstein, 2010; Miller, 2007; Nature Action Collaborative for Children, n.d.).

Broad sweeping statements found within both the curriculum and assessment documents leave open the opportunity for the readers to interpret what is meant by statements such as “centred on the child” or “evidence from research.”

- summary: This is particularly relevant to early childhood education, where the figure of the individual developing child as future salvation remains a common trope, one that is rooted in instrumental approaches to teaching and learning (Blaise, 2013; Lenz Taguchi, 2010). We have drawn particular inspiration from recent scholarship in early childhood education that has engaged interdisciplinary perspectives that include intersectional feminist approaches, Indigenous knowledges, and the environmental humanities to engage with why and how the Anthropocene, as an epoch marked by devastating human impacts on the earth, necessitates a turn away from normative romantic conceptions of children and nature (Pacini-Ketchabaw & Taylor, 2015; Ritchie, 2015; Taylor, 2017).

- summary: According to Andrew Stables, differentiating children from adults shifted the way child is included, excluded, and implicated in the all- encompassing categorical. Following Murris (2017, p. 16) we have written “child” as opposed to “the child” to write about the concept of child while distancing ourselves from writing about the child as a contained “bounded entity in space and time with a set of essential and universal characteristics (often resulting in the marginalization of children).”

- summary: This paper profiles the different ways in which elementary and middle school students report on their acts of kindness and introduces the concept of quiet kindness, a socially and emotionally sophisticated form of kindness that does not draw attention to the initiator, where the recipient remains potentially unaware of the act, and the kind act is not likely acknowledged or reinforced by external agents. The developmental implications of quiet kindness for children are discussed alongside implications for parents and educators.

Drawing largely from Lev Vygotsky (1978), they understand a specific form of play in preschool and primary classrooms, dramatic play, as a meaning-making and narrative-building practice (Wajskop & Peterson, 2015) during which children engage in symbolic thinking and become avid sign makers (Peterson, 2015).

- summary: Not only is professional learning conceptualized as critical for increasing educational quality and enhancing children’s learning and developmental outcomes (e.g., Lazarri, Picchio, & Musatti, 2013; Munton et al., 2002; Peleman et al., 2017; Penn, 2009; Vandenbroeck, Peeters, Urban, & Lazarri, 2016), but specific elements of professional learning (in both initial and continuing education, or preservice and in-service learning) have been identified as essential to transforming early childhood educators’ and preschool teachers’ professional identities and practice. For example, critical and supported reflection (Thomas & Packer, 2013), learning experiences that target entire teams (Vangrieken, Dochy, & Raes, 2016), collaborative and empowering practice (Helterbran & Fennimore, 2004), long-term interventions (Peleman et al., 2017), and competent leadership (Colmer, Waniganayake, & Field, 2008) have all been found to be effective means of supporting professional learning.

The first three chapters explore “The Heart of Education” (p. 32), “Creating a Culture of Inquiry” (p. 52), and “Rethinking Professional Learning” (p. 72), asking pedagogical leaders to reconsider their purpose through explorations of taken-for-granted terms and responsibilities in ECE, such as what it means to be reflective versus reactive in pedagogical practice.

- summary: In their study focused on water management, Moraes and Perkins found that women of colour were often left outside of political engagement in water practices, which was further complicated by lack of childcare, location, effects of climate change, and poor health because of polluted waters. Such understandings of how race and gender intersect with water practices lend further points of contention to how we engage with water discourses, practices, and uses globally, suggesting that attention should be paid to more-than-human possibilities for thinking alongside water and considering the racial and gendered politics that drown out other possibilities.

- summary: This deficit is partly due to the “model minority” discourse, which depicts Chinese students as academic achievers (Peterson, 1966a), leading their struggles as members of a racialized minority group to be less visible to academics. Finally, I will discuss three problematic connotations associated with the model minority stereotype, including foreign competitors and antisocial nerds, undesirable immigrants, and weak and obedient targets of bullying, all of which are evidenced in a recent example from Canadian media (“Too Asian?”, Findlay & Köhler, 2010) and in my own interview data with Chinese students.

- summary: For each vignette I describe the pivotal research questions, and then I focus on moments when girl participants radically influenced my process, analysis, and understanding, not only of 19th-century amateur theatre practices, but of the way this methodology engages with girls today. As their bodies make discoveries about, and perhaps relationships with, 19th-century girls, it is their minds, their ideas, their flashes of insights, and their critical reflections that have the potential to instigate social change, aligning their experiences with the rights-based approach to girl studies research.

- summary: Kleiner (2009) linked the ballet studio with its mirrors and the constant watching of the ballet instructor and other dancers to Foucault’s (1977a) panopticon. Until competition, dancers have no experience with backstage behaviours, onstage behaviours, and interaction with judges (e.g., scores, critiques), which will come to form a competition habitus, but they do have a sense of dance styles and technique in their studio habitus that may be shifted and informed by judges citing the broader dance world and observations of other dancers.

Sue: Everyday moments of teaching need to refer to the continued presence of Indigenous people in the here and now, not as a past that is lost and extinguished or existing in another place where Aboriginality is “more” authentic. In the meantime, engage the children with resources that have been constructed with or in partnership with Indigenous people, and always acknowledge the source.

Central to these relationships is an image of the child as competent, strong, powerful, and, most importantly, connected—to adults, children, environments, materials, and communities (McNally & Slutsky, 2017).

As Marian Barnes, Tula Brannelly, Lizzie Ward, and Nicki Ward write, The critical feminist political position in which care ethics is based makes it more than a set of characteristics for the pursuit of good; it is a broad set of theories for the pursuit of justice that require actions within political and institutional systems as well as within interpersonal caring relationships.

- summary: Ultimately, as outlined in the Indigenous ELCC Framework (Government of Canada et al., 2018), strategic transformations in ELCC structures, operations, and programs that are controlled and directed by Indigenous leadership are fundamental to redressing the intergenerational impacts of colonialism and realizing the potential of Indigenous ELCC programs to make a difference in the life chances of Indigenous children in this country. In British Columbia (BC), closure of a prominent Indigenous ELCC program prompted a study of some of the key factors influencing the operation of Indigenous ELCC programs in BC.

- summary: Through their analysis of children’s play with Holstein cow figurines as noninnocent care practices in the context of early childhood education, they explore how relations between children and animals and representations of animals can involve care, but not necessarily moral care. By inviting authors to think about child-animal relations and care, we wish to shed light on the ways in which other animals are relevant for human children’s lives, and vice versa, and to argue for the importance of these relations for society in the conflicting times we live in now.

The “historical disadvantage and trauma” (Bezanson, 2018, p. 156) caused by residential school, and more current colonial practices, has meant that Indigenous children continue to experience significant inequities (Ball, 2012; TRC, 2015b) which are cumulative, persistent, and complex.

- summary: This raises the question of innocence in childhood and adolescence, making the reader question whether it is possible or even desirable for children to maintain a distance from so-called threats to innocence. Heywood notes that there is already “a reluctant acceptance that children cannot remain ‘innocent’ in a highly sexualised society” (p. 10).

- summary: Graham et al. (2013) and Graham, Powell, and Taylor (2015) argue that this special relationship and indicative respect between researcher and potential research participant must also be extended to young child research participants. However, the promise of young children being perceived as capable and confident and having their participation rights fully recognized is a journey that has been fraught with more than a few bumps in the road and plenty of uneven, uncertain footing.

- summary: Developmental psychology, then, presents one prospective avenue through which to critique settler colonial childhoods through the use of an ecological approach (Tatlow-Golden & Montgomery, 2021) that recognizes the context of settler colonialism and how it shapes settler children as well as Indigenous children. The futurity of settler childhood enables us to displace children’s interest in environmental protection and adults’ hopes for resolutions to environmental risks into the lives of future adults.

- summary: Over the last few years, the sustained popularity of YouTube among young children, particularly unboxing vid- eos—referred to by Kollmeyer (2015) and others as “toddler crack”—has sparked interest and concern among journalists and experts from a range of disciplines (Bridle, 2017; Craig & Cunningham, 2017; LaFrance, 2017; Marsh, 2015; Nicoll & Nansen, 2018; Ramos-Serrano & Herrero-Diz, 2016; Sloane, 2015; Timsit, 2018). In this article, we take seriously Bridle’s suggestion and wonder what the unboxing craze and other YouTube me- dia content for young children that has been labelled “addictive” (Timsit, 2018), “bizarre” (Kelly, 2014), and even abusive (Bridle, 2017) might tell us about the “problems” of contemporary early childhood in a time of constantly changing social media and technology trends.

- summary: Nxumalo and Cedillo (2017), who suggest Indigenous place-stories as a way of disrupting colonial relationships with place in early childhood education, highlight the imminent tensions emergent from settlers’ use of Indigenous stories in pedagogical contexts: “certain stories might act to situate non-Indigenous educators as the transmitters of Indigenous knowledges” (p. 104). Additionally, it is important to remember in reading the Mi’kmaw mythopoetic tradition as SF that many settler readers of traditional Indigenous stories render them fantastical, when for many Indigenous people they are a true reflection of reality (Coleman, 2016; Deloria, 1994; Justice, 2018).

- summary: Unlike in other countries (such as Austria and Belgium), where childcare centres remained operational for children of both key workers and of working parents without other care options (Blum & Dobrotić, 2020), the provincial government made it clear that in Quebec, childcare services were only to be used by a limited group of essential workers without other childcare options. The government also announced the following Monday that subsidized childcare centres, both CPEs and garderies, as well as emergency school childcare services, were to remain open for children of healthcare and essential services workers.

- summary: While we were aware prior to COVID-19 that early learning and child care in Canada was in a fragile state—due in large part to a lack of a national framework or universal access—we became increasingly concerned about how those directly working and interacting with children were managing during the pandemic. And, as the government of Canada moves forward with a national early learning and child care plan that is promised to be a community-based system of quality care (Government of Canada, 2021a), we will continue our advocacy work to remind the policy designers that “universal” is not to be interpreted as “one size fits all” but rather the plan must meet the needs of diverse communities so that high-quality, affordable, inclusive early learning and child care is provided no matter where one lives in Canada.

Using a collective biography approach, we followed different time elements and their relationalities to bring into focus the different timescapes that (have always) exist(ed) alongside the modern(ist) linear ones, reminding us that the temporalities of human activities cannot be severed from the web of life and the unfolding trajectory of other‐ than‐human temporalities.

It requires a dogged persistence that moves the gaze away from the child towards spaces, places, and objects that intuitively surround, play, tussle with, and pull our very idea of “child.” More specifically, Kraftl, borrowing directly from Affrica Taylor and her criticisms of the humanist “man-to- the-rescue” script that seeks to save the world within the Anthropocene, is encouraging childhood scholars to look at “the how of children’s world-making with more-than-human others” and ways it can “contribute to the collective task of refiguring our place in an anthropogenically-damaged world without recourse to the conceits of the Anthropos” (Taylor, 2019, as cited in Kraftl, 2020, p. 44, emphasis in original).
