Autor Pauline Harris, Cynthia Brock, Elspeth McInnes, Bec Neill, Alexandra Diamond, Jenni Carter, Ufemia Camaitoga, Meresiana Krishna, Eleni Giannakis
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 oct 2021
This book offers a comprehensive report on a three-year, cross-cultural, critical participatory action research study, conducted in children’s homes and communities in Fiji. This project contributed to building sustainable local capacity in communities without access to early childhood services, so as to promote preschool children’s literacy development in their home languages and English. The book includes rich descriptions of the young children’s lived, multilingual literacy practices in their home and community contexts. This work advances research-based practices for fostering young children’s multilingual literacy and building community capacity in a post-colonial Pasifika context; further, it shares valuable insights into processes and complexities that are inherent to multiliteracy and cross-cultural research.

Recenzii

“The book … contain useful black-and-white photographs to illustrate the research. … It is a user-friendly guide for counsellors, academics, researchers, students and teachers interested in multilingual literacy in children. Written in plain English, it is easy to understand, which increases its usefulness and applicability, also making it a valuable guide for parents. It will help to promote understanding of literacy and development of community approaches to supporting and fostering young children’s multilingual literacy at home and in the community.” (Nico Irawan, Pratiwi Retnaningdyah and Ali Mustofa, International Review of Education, Vol. 67, 2021)
