Recenzii

Early Childhood Education (ECE), around the world, comprises contested themes about children, adults, classrooms, curricula, policies etc., which need robust, ethical research data to tackle. This book is a valuable tool for ECE students and professionals who are interested in undertaking and comprehending research while utterly considering equity issues. 
Eleni Loizou, Professor, Department of Education, University of Cyprus.
 
Mueller and File offer a practical and critical guide for early childhood educators to interpret and engage in educational research. Throughout their text, they and their coauthors highlight how research can inform practice, create opportunities for deeper learning, and guide members of the early childhood community in working towards issues of equity while addressing their everyday practical needs and intellectual development
